Quote of the Day:
“The second half, I think clearly our team felt like the game was over. That’s obviously my job to make sure our mentality is right. I don’t think it was. I think we were playing well at that point and had separated a little bit. And then you could just see we weren’t quite the same team coming out.”
Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley

Monday’s 6-pack
Six interesting college football spreads for next week:
— Oregon @ Ohio State (-14)
— Iowa @ Iowa State (-3.5)
— NC State (-2) @ Mississippi State
— Texas (-6) @ Arkansas
— Utah (-7) @ BYU
— Stanford @ USC (-17.5)

Quote of the Day
“After the Oregon game, they were like, ‘Screw you, Slovis. You cost us X amount of money” And they request money. I’m like, ‘C’mon man.’ My Facebook, I don’t even use it. It’s crazy to see the comments. My girlfriend’s Instagram and DMs. They find you.”
USC quarterback Kevon Slovis

Monday’s quiz
Which Hall of Fame pitcher made his MLB debut as a pinch-runner in the 16th inning of a game?

Sunday’s quiz
Danny Ford was Clemson’s coach the first time they won the football national title.

Saturday’s quiz
Coastal Carolina’s football team has nickname the Chanticleers.

**********************

Monday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports weekend

13) Sunday, there was lot of action in late innings:
— Mets scored 6 runs in 9th inning
— Milwaukee scored 5 runs in 9th inning
— Cleveland scored 5 runs in 9th inning
— Seattle scored 7 runs in 11th inning.

Sunday was first day since 1940 that four teams scored 5+ runs in 9th inning or later.

12) Notre Dame 41, Florida State 38 (OT)
— FSU outscored Notre Dame 18-0 in 4th quarter to force OT
— Seminoles’ kicker missed a 38-yard FG in OT.
— FSU QB Milton came off bench to spark the rally; he hadn’t played in over two years, since a severe leg injury while he played for Central Florida.

11) Zeb Noland played QB for South Carolina Saturday; he threw four TD passes in Carolina’s win over a I-AA team Saturday, but here’s the thing: Noland is supposed to be a graduate assistant coach this year, not a player. But he played well Saturday.

The kid who is supposed to be the Gamecocks’ QB is hurt; the backup isfrom a I-AA school, so Noland got the nod to start- he played previously at Iowa State, North Dakota State.

10) Dallas Cowboys star G Zack Martin has COVID, is out for this week’s game in Tampa.

9) Big Sky football teams went 8-0 ATS vs I-A teams this weekend; seven of the eight teams were underdogs of 19+ points. Eastern Washington covered as a small favorite at UNLV.

8) Detroit took young pitcher Casey Mize out Sunday after three IP, 34 PT- they’re just trying to preserve his arm for next year. Several teams are doing this, trying to keep their guys healthy heading into the offseason.

7) Brewers 6, Cardinals 5— Daniel Vogelbach with a pinch-hit, walk-off grand slam.

6) Chicago White Sox are 6-7-2 in their last 15 series; they were 16-7-6 in their first 29 series.

5) Last week, Adam Wainwright started his 300th career game with Yadier Molina behind the plate; that’s the 4th-most starts for one battery in MLB history.

Mickey Lolich threw 324 games with Bill Freehan behind the plate; they hold the record.

4) Here is some guarantee money visiting teams got this weekend:
$1.9M— Kent State @ Texas A&M
$1.8M— Akron @ Auburn
$1.685M— UL-Monroe @ Kentucky
$1.55M—- Florida Atlantic @ Florida

Losing can be profitable.

3) Clemson lost Saturday night without allowing an offensive TD; last time they did that was 1983, when they also lost to Georgia, whose only TD came on a blocked punt.

2) Today is Labor Day, and one college football coach has already announced his retirement. UConn’s Randy Edsall is gone after this season. Huskies’ football program is a mess; they’ll be looking for a head coach with New England recruiting ties.

1) If the baseball playoffs started today: (they do not):
NL: Braves, Brewers, Giants Wild Card: San Diego @ Los Angeles
AL: Rays, White Sox, Astros. Wild Card: Boston @ Bronx

Tuesday’s 6-pack
Six more interesting college football spreads for next week:
— Pitt (-3.5) @ Tennessee
— South Carolina @ East Carolina (-2)
— Air Force (-6.5) @ Navy
— Memphis (-4.5) @ Arkansas State
— Vanderbilt @ Colorado State (-6.5)
— San Diego State @ Arizona (-1)

Quote of the Day
“Crazy, wild game. It wasn’t pretty. It was beautiful at the end.”
Tampa Bay DH Hector Cruz

Tuesday’s quiz
What team did Archie Manning play most of his NFL career with?

Monday’s quiz
Greg Maddux made his MLB debut as a pinch-runner in the 16th inning of a game.

Sunday’s quiz
Danny Ford was Clemson’s coach the first time they won the football national title.

************************************

Tuesday’s Den: Wrapping up Labor Day weekend

13) Rays 11, Red Sox 10 (10)
— Boston led 7-1 after two innings.
— Austin Meadows tied game with an inside/park homer in 9th inning, first time that happened in major leagues since 2008 (Mark Teahen).
— Red Sox have 11 guys on the COVID list; because of that, they’re basically only MLB team working with a 40-man roster right now- they added SS Jose Iglesias, recently dropped by the Angels.

12) Ole Miss 43, Louisville 24:
— When the Louisville coach publicly criticizes his QB to a reporter at halftime, it isn’t good.
— ABC TV crew spent lot of 4th quarter talking about their dogs; this was a bad game.

Terrible job by MLB, by the way; only two major league games on Labor Day night?

11) This weekend, an average of 52.3 ppg were scored in I-A college football games, the lowest total for Labor Day weekend since 2009.

10) Giants 10, Rockies 5:
— Giants over/under win total this spring was 75.5; they’re 88-50 after this game.

9) Nationals 4, Mets 3:
— Washington scored twice in 9th for an unlikely win.
— 10 of Mets’ last 11 games were decided by one run.

8) An ex-Patriots player was quoted Monday as saying that rookie QB Mac Jones was tutoring Cam Newton on learning New England’s offense this summer, which may help explain why Newton is no longer on the Patriots.

7) Houston Texans named Tyrod Taylor (24-21-1 as an NFL starter) as their #1 QB for their game with Jacksonville Sunday. Deshaun Watson will be on the roster, but isn’t expected to be active; rookie Davis Mills is supposed to be Houston’s #2 QB.

6) Bad news for the Minnesota Gophers; star RB Mo Ibrahim will miss the rest of the season because of a leg injury he suffered against Ohio State. Ibrahim rushed 30 times for 163 yards before the injury.

5) Mentioned yesterday that UConn football coach Randy Edsall announced he’ll retire after the season; the school overruled him Monday— Edsall is gone immediately, after Huskies started the season 0-2, with a horrible loss to Holy Cross.

4) Over last seven weeks, St Louis Cardinals are 2-10 in games where the winning run scored in last three innings. Despite, St Louis is only 3.5 games out of the second Wild Card spot.

3) Royals’ 3B Hanser Alberto has batted 221 times this year; he’s walked TWICE. Twice. He walked five times in 224 PA’s last year. Not good.

2) Not only did I-AA Montana upset Washington Saturday, the Griz took home a $650,000 guarantee check for their trip to Washington.

1) Wild Card races:
NL: Los Angeles, San Diego
— Reds are a game behind San Diego, Phillies two games behind.
— Cardinals are 3.5 games behind, Mets 4.5 games.

AL: New York, Boston
— Toronto, Seattle are 3 games behind
— A’s are 3.5 games behind

— Wilson (-5) vs Lamar Jackson

Quote of the Day
“You don’t get the vaccine for yourself. You get it for the people around you.”
Charles Barkley

Wednesday’s quiz
Where did Charles Barkley play his college basketball?

Tuesday’s quiz
Archie Manning played most of his NFL career with the Saints.

Monday’s quiz
Greg Maddux made his MLB debut as a pinch-runner in the 17th inning of a game.

*************************

Wednesday’s Den: Mid-week musings……..

13) Dodgers-Giants was ESPN’s Sunday night game, maybe the two best teams in baseball. For some unknown reason, both teams had day games on Labor Day, both on the road.

How stupid is this? MLB only had two night games Monday, in Houston/Anaheim; they couldn’t put Dodgers/Giants in Monday night games, then showcase them on TV?

You want to showcase your best teams. Weird thing is both teams won on Monday anyway.

12) It has been 20 years since an AFC team got to the Super Bowl with preseason odds higher than 10-1; this year’s AFC teams that are 10-1 or lower:
5-2— Kansas City
5-1— Buffalo
6-1— Baltimore
8-1— Cleveland
10-1— New England

11) Angels 4, Padres 0:
— Blake Snell took another no-hitter into 7th inning, but only hit he gave up scored two runs as four Angel hurlers blanked the struggling Padres.
— In his last three starts, Snell has allowed 4 hits, 3 runs in 21.1 IP, but San Diego lost two of the three games.
— San Diego is 7-16 in its last 23 games.

10) MLB needs to mike the umpires, so they can explain replay reviews to fans in the stands; Lord knows the NFL has done it for decades. It is good business. At least mike the crew chief, so he can clear up any confusion about unusual plays.

9) Going into Tuesday’s play, Dodgers/Rays led the two leagues in runs scored- both teams were hitting .241 for the season, the lowest batting average for league leaders in runs since the 1968 Detroit Tigers.

They lowered the mound after pitching-dominated 1968; hopefully there will be several changes to next year’s rules, to increase offense in the game.

8) Atlanta Braves signed P Charlie Morton to a one-year, $20M deal for next year; he will be 38 next year. Braves have a team option to sign for Morton for 2023.

7) Dallas Cowboys have 36 new players on their roster this year; that’s a lot.

6) Astros 5, Mariners 4:
— Alex Bregman tied the game with a 9th-inning homer.
— Carlos Correa walked it off with a 10th-inning double.

5) Toronto 5, New York 1:
— Gerrit Cole left his start Tuesday with a hamstring issue; Bronx is 2-8 in last ten games.
— Blue Jays are only two games out of the playoff picture.

4) NBA’s Detroit Pistons totally overhauled their roster; their longest-tenured player is Killian Hayes, who has played only 26 games for Detroit.

3) Kentucky Wildcats got a commitment from five-star recruit Shaedon Sharpe, the #1 recruit in country; it is first time in 10 years John Calipari signed the #1 recruit in America.

2) I can’t stand the Nick Saban AFLAC commercials that take over college football games during timeouts. Saban is always bland/standoffish when doing interviews on regular TV, but pay him to do an insurance commercial, and he is Mr Happy. Yeah, sure.

1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they don’t):
NL: Braves, Brewers, Giants. Wild Card: SD/Cin @ Los Angeles
AL: Rays, White Sox, Astros. Wild Card: Boston @ New York
