Fandom: Avatar the Last Airbender, Pairing: Zukka Modern AU in which Zuko is the captain of the fencing team

This fic is also up on AO3, and you can find it if you click here. Under the cut is just a preview, because self control? Who is she?

Katara found Sokka on his way from the library. He hadn’t slept at all the night before, and he felt just generally awful to be alive. Checking himself in the mirror that morning, he noticed big dark circles under his eyes and a few pimples forming on his cheeks, so at least he looked as gross as he felt. He waved to her as she strode towards him. “Hey, Katara—ow! Ow! What the hell!?” Instead of saying hi like a normal person, she grabbed and twisted his ear. “I should be asking you that, idiot,” she said, not releasing him. “I hung out with Suki last night, and do you know what she told me? She said Zuko told her you guys were dating. Not friends with benefits—dating. But then I hear that you danced with Ty Lee and some math major for like two hours at the party yesterday. A math major, Sokka! You’d better have a damn good explanation for all of this.” “Alright! Alright! Just, let go of my ear first!” Sokka pleaded. Katara released him and crossed her arms, her expression unimpressed, and entire stance daring him to say something stupid. He rubbed his ear, glaring at her. “That really hurt, you know.” “You’re getting off lightly, I think,” Katara said. “Why did you lie to me about your relationship with Zuko?” “I didn’t!” Sokka squawked. “We just, you know…haven’t really…talked about it. I mean, labels can be so restrictive—hey! No! Stop!” Katara went for his ear again, and he managed to bat her hands away with his art history textbook. They ended up in a stalemate, with Sokka pointing his book at her like it was a weapon, and Katara facing him down like his idiocy was punishable by death and she would be his executioner. “Look,” she said, putting a hand to her brow and relaxing her stance. “I wouldn’t be mad about this if you didn’t drag half of our friends into this mess. Suki was heartbroken, and Zuko apparently drank himself sick last night. Get your shit together, Sokka.” “I’m going to!” Sokka said. “I’m just…I’m not ready to be out or anything. I don’t even know what I’d be out as. I talked to Zuko about it, and he agreed to help me get ahead of any rumors that might spread because of, you know. The kiss.” “Sokka, I don’t know how to tell you this, but it’s 2019, and you’re in college,” Katara said. “Nobody cares if you’re gay or not, and even if they did you’d have the entire fencing team behind you. You’re friends with Toph, who can take down most football players single-handedly.” “That’s easy for you to say,” Sokka said. “You’re not the one who has to live with it.” “No, I don’t,” Katara said. “I just have to live with you and your messes.” Sokka sighed. She was right. “I’ll talk to Suki,” he said. “And I’ll fix things with Zuko.” “Great,” Katara said, patting him threateningly on the shoulder. “See that you do.” He eventually found Zuko sitting with Suki on a long couch in a lounge in the student union. They were talking in low voices, and the bits of conversation Sokka overheard made him duck for cover before they could spot him. “Anyway, I’m sorry for yelling at you,” Suki said. “I had no idea it was like that.” “I’m sorry, too,” Zuko said, his voice incredibly hoarse. He had a tall takeaway cup of tea in his hand that he took a sip from. “How are you holding up?” Suki asked. “How do you think?” Zuko replied, almost too quiet for Sokka to hear. He coughed. “I feel like shit.” “Physically or emotionally?” Suki asked with an amused snort. Sokka didn’t hear Zuko’s reply, but Suki got up to leave shortly after. He snuck out of the lounge and then doubled back so it would look like he had just walked in. “Oh, Suki, hi,” he said, louder than strictly necessary. “Hey, Sokka,” she said, regarding him with mild suspicion. “Can we talk?” (Continued on AO3...)

LSU at Alabama Preview

Picture Credit: https://kstp.com/associated-press/ap-national-sports/jayden-daniels-throws-for-3-tds-runs-for-another-score-as-no-19-lsu-routs-army-62-0/

LSU hosted Alabama last year in a thriller, completing a 2-2 record over the Crimson Tide since 2019. Alabama football has sat atop the throne of college football for the past 15 years and LSU's previous big wins against the Tide allow for the idea of a new superpower in the SEC West. With Nick Saban climbing the latter in age, does LSU have the potential to dethrone the king of College Football, or is this all-fairy dust? LSU has magnificent offensive firepower in the passing game through Jayden Daniels, Malik Nabers, and Brian Thomas Jr, and legs in the backfield through Daniels and lead by Logan Diggs. The Tiger's offensive line has plenty of talent and has improved tremendously throughout the course of the 2023 season.

On the defensive side of things, LSU has struggled to say the least. The defensive front of things is a bright spot for this LSU defense through the likes of Masson Smith and Mekhi Wingo as well as underutilized Harold Perkins Jr. who a very good argument could be made for being the best linebacker in College Football. Major issues have come from the LSU secondary and entering game week versus the number 8 team in the country, LSU is without their three starting cornerbacks. Since falling short at Ole Miss in a 55-49 shootout, the defense has made some improvements versus Army and Auburn as they look to carry this over to their biggest game of the year up until this point. With this being said, the LSU offense will be put to its biggest test of the year versus this Alabama defense.

Picture Credit: https://www.tuscaloosanews.com/story/sports/college/football/2023/10/26/alabama-football-schedule-2023-college-football-playoff-sec-west-tiebreakers/71247791007/

This Alabama team holds much power, but not as much as previous Alabama teams. A lethal team no doubt, but a team that is very much human. Alabama has a game changer quarterback on offense, Jaylen Milroe. His stats won't jump off of the screen for you, but he is uber mobile, and it has been seen that these types of quarterbacks give the LSU defense trouble. With a weak secondary, the defensive front must contain Milroe, and not allow for extended plays and a strong ground game. Along the offensive side, Milroe is the LSU's defense biggest threat. On the defensive side of things, this Alabama defense is dangerous, and could be stated as one of the best, if not the best in College Football. With a heavy weight match up with this Alabama defense versus an explosive LSU offense, things could get more then interesting. If LSU properly utilizes their strong defensive front to keep Alabama in check while putting pressure on the offensive side of the ball, LSU can and should manage this game very well. Don't be surprised to see Jayden Daniels Heisman moment. LSU's offense is the best in the country, and it will explode upon the Alabama defense. LSU wins 44-38.

In the world of college football, there are problems who capture our attention with their exceptional skills and undeniable talent. One such player is Jordan Travis, the talented quarterback for the Florida State Seminoles. With his impressive stats and ability to lead his team to victory, Travis has become a rising star in the world of college football.

Stats that Speak Volumes:

Since joining the Florida State Seminoles in 2019, Jordan Travis has made a significant impact on the team’s performance. Let’s take a closer look at some of his standout statistics:

Passing Efficiency: Travis boasts on impressive passer rating of 142.2, completing 55% of his passes for over 1,500 yards and throwing for nine touchdowns.

Rushing Prowess: Known for his dual-threat capabilities, he has rushed for over 600 yards and scored seven rushing touchdowns.

Big-Play Ability: Travis has demonstrated an uncanny ability to make big plays when it matters most - whether its connecting with receivers downfield or using his agility to evade defenders.

Previewing FSU vs Virginia Tech Game:

The upcoming game between FSU and Virginia Tech promises to be an exciting clash between two formidable teams. As FSU’s starting quarterback, all eyes will be on Jordan Travis as he leads his team against a strong Hokies defense.

Travis’ versatility as both a passer and runner will undoubtedly pose challenges for Virginia’s Tech’s defense. His ability to extend plays with his legs can create opportunities downfield or open up running lanes for himself or other teammates. 

However, Virginia Tech won’t make it easy for him; their defense ranks among the best in college football this season. It will be crucial for Travis to make quick decisions under pressure while also relying on FSU’s offensive line to provide him with the necessary protection.

In addition to Travis’ performance, the outcome of this game will also depend on FSU’s overall team effort. The Seminoles’ defense must step up to contain Virginia Tech’s offense, while their receiving corps needs to create separation and make plays in order for Travis to find success through the air.

Jordan Travis has emerged as a key player for the FSU Seminoles, showcasing his talent and leadership skills on the field. With impressive stats and an ability to make big plays, he has become a fan favorite and a force to be reckoned with in college football.

As we eagerly await the FSU vs Virginia Tech game, all eyes will be on Jordan Travis as he looks to lead his team to victory. Whether it’s through his accurate passing or dynamic rushing abilities, there’s no doubt that he will leave everything on the field in pursuit of another memorable performance.

Football Vs. Husband: Which Do You Know Better? | Zimbits ft. Tater, G, 1.8k

Summary: Bitty gets quizzed on two of his favourite things: Jack and...... football?

Based on the Buzzfeed video of the same name. Takes place sometime in Sept-Oct 2019. Minor spoilers for 4.25 Faber and 4.26 Check, Please! (If you can call em spoilers LOL.)

Read on Ao3

A/N: Fun fact: At the time I wrote this (2017), it was set in the “future” (2019), but now that year is literally the past for us hahahahahahskfjasldfjasldfjklaskdfj. In the fic summary I say “minor spoilers” because what I originally wrote as wish fulfillment in 2017 became canon in 2020.

Anyway, this is a near verbatim copy of Ned Fulmer getting quizzed on his wife vs football—like fr some of the dialogue is exactly the same LOL. Thanks to @smol0ctopus​ for the beta and the omg stream! please server for advice!<3 Any other mistakes are mine.

YouTube transcript of Football Vs. Husband (Check, Please! #151: A Falconers Special!) [Descriptive captions by biittyyreciipees, airhockeycanbeviolent, and f4lcsboy: Check, Please! Captioning Team]

Eric Hey, y’all! Didja miss me? Because I sure did miss you! Now, today’s video is a lil special. Y’all’ll see that I’ve got myself some lovely guests here from Providence’s own Falconers team. (gestures towards Jack and Tater) Say hi guys!

Tater (waves) Hi!

Jack (single nod, smiles) Hello.

Eric I’ve got here regular guest and my husband, Jack Zimermann, and his teammate, Alexei Mashkov—

Tater But you call me Tater!

Eric (laughs) But we call him Tater! Tater, why don’t you explain what’ll happen here today?

Tater Is collaboration with Falcs TV! We had special tournament to see if players knows their SOAPs more than favorite thing.

ONSCREEN CAPTION SOAPs = Significant Others And Partners, for all y’all non-hockey fans out there! Click here (highlighted annotation inserted) to watch the tournament on the Falconer’s official website or check this video’s description!

Eric I had me such a great time over on Falcs TV with Jack that I wanted to share the fun with y’all here!

Tater (nods) Zimmboni crush everyone in tournament!

ONSCREEN CAPTION “Zimmboni” is Jack’s hockey nickname, like “Tater” is for Alexei. Everyone on the team has one! In fact, I have one too: Bitty! But Alexei likes to call me “B”.

Jack (shrugs, gives small smile) I know history. I know my husband.

Eric (laughs, blushes)

Tater Now, is time to see if B know Zimmboni just as much!

Eric I’m feelin’ pretty confident that I do. What do you think, sweetpea?

Jack I think Bits knows me better than myself, to be honest.

Eric Jack! (blushing again)

Tater Yes, yes, is very cute! But I’m want to ask questions now, yes?

Eric (turns to camera) Now, I tried to get ‘em to quiz me on baking—because y’all and your mama know that I love it—but Jack here insisted that I get asked about football instead.

Jack Baking’s too easy. I figured you’d appreciate the challenge. You know a lot about American football, eh?

Eric (rolls eyes) “American football”—I know y’all in Canada just call it football too! Now, I’d argue, but that’ll take up the rest of this video, so I guess it’s time to get to the quiz!

Tater Yes!

(video transition with dramatic music)

Tater (holds up stack of cards in hands) Here, I’m hold questions about NFL and college football, plus questions about Zimmboni for B to answer. Like during Falcs’ tournament, I’m ask SOAP about their favorite subject first, then ask about their partner. B, is ready?

Eric As I’ll ever be!

Jack Gonna crush it, Bits.

Eric Let’s hope so, sweetheart.

Tater Will be good, B, I’m sure! Question one, name five offensive positions in the NFL.

Eric Lord, how easy—quarterback, running back, wide receiver, offensive tackle, tight end.

ONSCREEN CAPTION Score: 5/5

Tater See, B! You be fine! Name five of Zimmboni’s favourite foods.

Eric Ooh, alright. So PB&J sandwiches, chicken tenders... scrambled eggs, uh, cassoulet... (Caption Note: French food pronunciation is not butchered, because food)

ONSCREEN CAPTION Score: 4/5

Tater One more, B.

Eric Hm, let’s see—

Tater (snickers) Remember this easiest question in stack.

Eric Oh, hush, you.

Jack Bits? Maybe a dessert?

Eric (hits head with base of palm) Oh, goodness me, right! Maple sugar crusted apple pie.

ONSCREEN CAPTION Score: 5/5

Tater (nods) Yes. Okay, how many minutes in football quarter?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: Quarters in the NFL and NCAA football are 15 minutes.

Eric 15 minutes.

Tater How long is Zimmboni’s pre-game ritual?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: 15 minutes max. Like all athletes, hockey players have specific rituals before their games.

Eric About thirty minutes?

Tater (whooping laughter) 15 minutes, max.

Jack (laughs)

Eric (gasps, shakes head) That is not true, that can not be true! Honey, I’ve seen you take 15 minutes making your pre-game PBJ sandwiches. (scoffs)

Jack (makes a face)

Tater Sorry, B. Must give big zero for that question.

Eric (rolls eyes) Hmph!

Tater B, you get 20 seconds—name as many starting quarterbacks in the NFL as possible. Ready, set, go!

Eric Matt Ryan, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen, Philip Rivers, Tom Brady—ugh—Baker Mayfield, Derek Carr, Carson Palmer.

ONSCREEN CAPTION Score: 8

Tater Have 10 seconds, name as many as Zimmboni’s lineys when he finally move to first line.

ONSCREEN CAPTION Lineys = Hockey linemates. Fun fact: Jack moved from third to first line during his first season in the Falcs back in 2015!

Eric (opens mouth)

Tater But! Must name them by nickname!

Eric (single nod, determined expression)

Tater Okay? Ready, set, go!

Eric Alright so excluding Jack, that’ll be you, Tater, then we got Marty, Thirdy, Guy, and Snowy if you count the goalies!

Tater (solemnly nods) Always count goalies!

Eric Then that’s five for five. Gettin’ a lil easy there!

ONSCREEN CAPTION Score: 5/5

Tater Haha! Okay, who are on cover of Sports Illustrated for this season’s NFL and college previews?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham Jr. were on the cover for the NFL preview. Trevor Lawrence was on the cover for the college preview.

Eric Oh, Coach and I were just talkin’ about this! I know the NFL preview was Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry, but the college preview... (brief pause, placing chin on fist contemplatively) I think it’s Trevor Lawrence?

Tater Correct! What magazine cover did Zimmboni appear on first?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: Trick question! Jack’s first ever appearance on a magazine cover was not as a hockey player. He first appeared on People Magazine as a baby with his parents, Robert “Bad bob” Zimmermann and Alicia Zimmermann.

Eric Can I ask a question?

Tater ...no.

Eric Well, shoot, alright. If you mean his first cover as an athlete, I’ll say Sports Illustrated, but if you mean his first one ever I think it’s People Magazine when he was a baby.

Tater (censored beep) Wow!

Jack (raises eyebrows) You remember that?

Eric Well, you told me! And Alicia did show me when we visited for Christmas one year. (smug smirk)

Jack (covers face in hand, exasperated sigh) Of course she did.

Tater Next question! How many Super Bowl rings does Tom Brady have?

Eric Oh goodness. I think it’s five?

Tater Six!

Eric What?

Tater Is six!

Eric (groans) Of course it’s six. Whatever, it’s fine, I try not to think about Tom Brady anyway. I don’t mind getting this one wrong. In fact, I’m kinda glad because I certainly don’t care for the man. Like, who—

Jack Bits. We’re in the middle of a game right now?

Eric (blushes) Oh, right.

Tater It’s alright, B, haha. But we move on with game now, yes? (single nod) Now, how many rings Zimmboni normally wear?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: 1.

Eric One! He usually just wears his wedding ring, but today he’s got his 2016 Stanley ring! Wanna show it off, honey?

Jack (sheepishly holds up hands to show the two rings)

ONSCREEN CAPTION Fun fact: The team who wins the Stanley Cup get matching rings. Jack got his first one when the Falcs won the Cup in 2016!

Tater Is tough one now: How many times have the Atlanta Falcons made the playoffs?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: 14.

Eric (sighs) Oh Lordy, that's hard. Alright, so by the time I was born they were at five so— (voice continues in fast forward) —they did in ‘98, then... ‘02? After was 2004, not 2005, or ‘06... so the next one was 2008. Then there was that streak from 2010 to 2012. Then the next one was 2016, and then ‘17. Not ‘18 and ‘19. So that’s... (begins to count on fingers)

Tater (back to regular speed, looking impressed) You have answer, B?

Eric I'm gonna go with fourteen as of this year.

Tater (censored beep)!!!

Eric (laughs)

Jack (censored beep), Bittle.

Tater Is amazing! You have both number and years!

Eric I’m Southern, and my daddy’s a football coach. (shrugs) Can’t help it!

Jack (chuckles) This is why I wanted you to answer stuff about the football instead of baking.

Eric (rolls eyes, swats Jack’s arm) Oh, this boy.

Tater Next question! What is most number of times Zimmboni fight in one season?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: 3 fights.

Eric Ooh, shoot. I should know this one too, huh? Okay, so his first season he only got in one fight— (voice continues in fast forward) —and second season was also one, I think. After that, uhh, I think he finally got in two. Last year was three maybe? And this season hasn’t even started. But last year? Was it three? I don’t quite—hm.

Tater (back to regular speed) Your answer, B?

Eric I’m gonna go with three fights for last season.

Tater (shaking his head)

Jack What did I say?

Tater (censored beep) Is correct. (huffs) What year did Falcons join the NFL?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: 1965.

Eric Uhhh, oh goodness, I know Coach told me this at some point... (pause) I think it was 1965?

Tater Correct! What year Zimmboni first try skating?

ONSCREEN CAPTION Answer: 1992. Fun fact: Bad Bob had Jack skating as soon as Jack could walk!

Eric Skating, huh? ‘Cause I’ll bet the son of Bad Bob tried on his first skates before he even turned one, huh? (smiles cheekily)

Jack (nudges with elbow, gives Eric a small smile) Not the question.

Eric Oh alright, not the question. Hmm, I know it was before you turned three so, I’ll say... (drawling out answer) nineteen-ninety... two?

Tater (throws cards out of hand, shaking his head) Is correct again!

Eric Oh my god!

(high pitched sound as Eric fist pumps the air)

Jack (laughs, bringing an arm around Eric before kissing his cheek)

Tater B, I'm frustrate to say you know Zimmboni as much as you know football.

ONSCREEN CAPTION FINAL SCORE: Football = 6, Husband = 6. T I E ! ! !

Jack Knew it. Told you so, Bits.

Eric That sounds like a chirp, and I will not have that on my vlog, Mr. Zimmermann. So with that, I guess we’re done! (looks towards camera, claps once) Well, that about does it for today’s video! Thank you so much to my special guests, Providence Falconers’ Jack Zimermann and Alexei Mashkov, for joining me today. (gestures towards Jack and Tater)

Tater (nods with a wide smile) Thanks for having us, B!

Jack (smiles and nods) Always great to be here.

Eric Be sure to check out the Falcs TV videos too! Link in the description or right over here! (points to space, highlighted annotation inserted) And thanks for tuning in! Next week, I’ll have a new video for y’all on the best ways to add protein to your favourite sandwiches.

(Eric, Jack, and Tater wave at the camera)

Eric Bye, y’all! See ya next time!

RIVERDALE

Season 4 of The CW’s teen drama will start off on a somber note, with an episode dedicated to late cast member Luke Perry and his character Fred Andrews — and Archie will “be committed to honoring his father’s memory” for the rest of the season, executive producer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa reveals. Case in point: Archie’s  newfound desire to give back to his local community leads to him opening a center for at-risk youth: “All of the plans and dreams Fred had about Riverdale, he’s trying to fulfill those.” Plus, it’s senior year at Riverdale High, and the EP promises we’ll actually spend some time in school this season, “seeing Archie back on the football team, seeing more of the Vixens.” But college — and a possible separation for the gang — is looming. “There’s this sense that at the end of senior year, everything changes,” notes the EP.

BONUS SPOILER!: We of course haven’t forgotten about that finale cliffhanger with Archie, Betty and Veronica huddled around a campfire and Jughead mysteriously absent… and neither has the show. “Throughout the season, we’ll be tracking how we get to that night in the woods,” the EP hints, adding that “it’s a different kind of mystery than we’ve done” in the past.

RETURN DATE: Wednesday, Oct. 9 at 8/7c (The CW)

Preview

On September 30th, 2017, Ed Orgeron’s LSU Tigers lost at home to Troy. It was the 2nd loss in three weeks and things were starting to get uncomfortable for Coach O just five games into his first full season as the Tigers’ head coach. Rumors of infighting between the head man and offensive coordinator Matt Canada were rampant. With a trip to the Swamp up next and Auburn coming to town a week later, it sure seemed like a possible Ole Miss redux was underway in Baton Rouge. Ed O was once again the joke of the SEC.

But not for long.

LSU has lost exactly five games since that Troy upset. They rallied to beat Florida and Auburn in successive weeks and finished 9-4 in 2017. LSU followed up with a 10 win season in 2018. Then in 2019, Coach O and the Tigers went out and won the whole damn thing behind the most prolific offense in college football history.

Ain’t no one laughing now except Coach O.

What LSU accomplished in 2019 was remarkable. Joe Burrow transformed from mediocre QB that needed max protect every other snap to a Heisman winner who excelled at getting his playmakers the ball behind 5 man protections. It was an offense that was downright unstoppable, only scoring less than 35 points once in 2019. But even in that one contest against Auburn’s stout defense, LSU still put up over 500 yards of offense.

I mean just look at those numbers. Joe Burrow threw SIXTY touchdown passes. Ja’Marr Chase caught TWENTY touchdowns. Justin Jefferson had ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN receptions. Terrace Marshall missed 3 games and still caught THIRTEEN touchdowns. Clyde Edwards-Helaire rushed for more yards than any AU running back last season and would have finished #2 in receiving for Malzahn’s Tigers. Just insanity.

But can they do it again? Joe Brady, former no name NFL analyst turned offensive wunderkind, is gone to the NFL. Long time stud defensive coordinator Dave Aranda is now the head coach at Baylor. Fourteen members of the 2019 national champions were drafted in the NFL.

Winning championships is hard. Winning multiple championships is much harder. Just ask Larry Coker, Gene Chizik, Mack Brown, Jimbo Fisher and countless others who reached the mountain top only to see their programs crumble underneath them. Will Coach 0 join them or is this only the start of his ascension?

Fortunately for LSU, elite talent remains, it’s just unproven. Myles Brennan has the daunting task of replacing Joe Burrow. A former blue chip prospect, Brennan has patiently waited his turn and folks in Baton Rouge think highly of his upside. But he won’t be as good as Burrow this fall. The question is how big a step back does LSU’s offense take from Burrow to Brennan?

Luckily for LSU’s new starting QB, plenty of skill talent remains. Yes, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Justin Jefferson and Thaddeus Moss are all gone. But the nation’s best wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is back as is former 5-star Terrace Marshall Jr. LSU also returns two former 5-star running backs in John Emery and Tyrion Davis-Prince along with former blue chip Chris Curry. There’s also an assortment of young WR talent that looks poised to make an impact including 5-star freshman Kayshon Boutte.

Oh and they signed one of the freakiest athletes of the 2020 class in Arik Gilbert. Seriously, this kid is absurd and will be a bone fide stud in LSU’s offense.

Probably the most underrated piece of that LSU offense last season was its offensive line. The Tigers often relied on only 5 man protections and this unit was outstanding all year HOLDING up against elite pass rushes. However, four starters have departed with right tackle Austin Deculus the lone man returning. There’s definitely plenty of talent up front it’s just about getting it to gel quickly enough to execute the Tigers RPO heavy offense.

On defense, Dave Aranda is gone and a familiar face has returned to roam the Tigers sidelines. Bo Pelini is back in Power 5 football following five years as head coach at Youngstown State. He took the Penguins to the FCS National Championship his 2nd year but was unable to replicate that success in his following 3 campaigns. Under Pelini, LSU will be transitioning back to a four man front meaning some pieces on this defense will have to adjust to new responsibilities and positions this fall.

Up front, LSU is loaded as always. K’Lavon Chaisson, Rashard Lawrence and Breiden Fehoko are all gone but plenty of talent returns. The Tigers have some big fellas to eat up the middle in guys like Tyler Shelvin, Saiki Ika and Glen Logan. On the edge, LSU will have to make some adjustments transitioning from 3-4 OLBs to 4-3 DEs. There are a lot of different faces that will get looks at this position but keep an eye on former JUCO TE prospect T.K. McClendon. Ed O has been consistent in praising his development and the scheme change better fits his skillset. He could be a breakout player for this Tiger defense in 2020.

One of the positions hardest hit by attrition was linebacker where Patrick Queen and Jacob Phillips both decided to leave for the NFL following the 2019 season. Luckily for LSU, they landed one of the premier grand transfers on the market in former North Dakota State star Jabril Cox. He will likely earn a starting role on the outside while someone like Damone Clark takes over at the MIKE.

Two starters depart in Thorpe Award winner (lol) Grant Delpit and cornerback Kristian Fulton. But arguably the nation’s best corner, Derek Stingley Jr, returns along with nickel back Kary Vincent Jr and safety JaCoby Stevens. Former Auburn commit Cordale Flott looks to be the incumbent at the corner spot opposite Stingley while former AU target Maurice Hampton likely fills in for Delpit at safety. The Tigers also signed the #1 CB in the nation in the 2020 class in Elias Ricks who could easily see time early on the back end of LSU’s defense.

2019 was a magical season for LSU. They put a fun brand of football on the field and used it to obliterate most every opponent that stood in their way. But 2020 will likely provide a few more stumbling blocks. So much production is gone and with two brand new coordinators, it’s hard to see LSU repeating in 2020. Auburn gets the defending champs at home this fall. If Gus Malzahn is ever going to beat Ed Orgeron, it better be this year.

War Eagle!

Minnesota Twins-Chicago White Sox Series Preview

7.24.20-Jose Berrios RHP (14-8) 3.68 ERA Vs. Lucas Giolito RHP (14-9) 3.41 ERA

7.25.20-Rich Hill LHP (4-1) 2.45 ERA Vs. Dallas Keuchel LHP (8-8) 3.75 ERA

7.26.20-Kenta Maeda RHP (10-8) 4.04 ERA Vs. TBA

(2019 MLB Stats)

The Twins At A Glance- The Minnesota Twins finally embark on the 2020 season that looked like it would never happen. They picked up some key offensive pieces in Alex Avila and Josh Donaldson to add to the best home run hitting team in baseball history. Jorge Polanco and Nelson Cruz were the leaders of Summer Camp for the Twins. Polanco hit 6-for-14 (.429) and Cruz hit 6-for-13 (.462) in the four intrasquad games. Eddie Rosario had a pair of hits in the exhibition game against the Cubs on Wednesday night. The Twins added some arms to a nice pitching staff. Homer Bailey replaces Kyle Gibson as the sinkerballer, Kenta Maeda is a solid pitcher, who has pitched in some big games, and Rich Hill is the lefty, who replaces Martin Perez. The Twins bullpen got better as the year went on in 2019. Taylor Rogers will return as the closer. Sergio Romo was resigned, Trevor May and Tyler Duffey took the next step as lock down relievers, and Tyler Clippard was signed to provide veteran leadership. Cody Stashak and Zack Littell were reliable righties and the team has a ton of long relief options with Randy Dobnak, Devin Smeltzer, and Sean Poppen. The Twins will be without Willians Astudillo (COVID-19), Jake Odorizzi (back), Michael Pineda (suspension), and Fernando Romero (visa issues) to begin the season. 

The White Sox At A Glance- The Chicago White Sox are the hot pick along with the Cincinnati Reds to get to the playoffs in 2020. I would like everyone to know that the White Sox haven’t made the playoffs since 2008 when they beat the Twins 1-0 in Game 163. The White Sox do have a ton of young talent, but need to learn how to win. The team went out and signed some big names in Yasmani Grandal, Edwin Encarnacion, and traded for Nomar Mazara. Those guys should mesh well with the young stars of Tim Anderson, Yoan Moncada, Eloy Jimenez, Luis Robert, and Nick Madrigal. The starting rotation got a boost with the signings of lefties Dallas Keuchel and Gio Gonzalez, but the Michael Kopech opt out certainly hurt them. The bullpen added Steve Cishek to go along with Kelvin Herrera, Evan Marshall, Aaron Bummer, and Alex Colome. Nomar Mazara was placed on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday for an undisclosed injury. It should be interesting to see how the White Sox do in 2020. I think they will be the main contender for the Twins in the Central. 

What To Watch For- The Twins went (13-6) against the White Sox in 2019. The Twins were (7-3) at the ten games played at Guaranteed Rate Field. Jose Berrios is (11-2) with a 2.40 ERA in 14 games against the White Sox. James McCann has hit 8-for-24 with four homers and ten RBI’s off Berrios in his career. Lucas Giolito is (4-5) with a 4.58 ERA in ten starts against the Twins. Nelson Cruz is hitting 5-for-12 with three homers and five RBI’s off Giolito. Rich Hill is (0-2) with a 6.41 ERA in 17 games against the White Sox. Dallas Keuchel is (3-3) with a 3.60 ERA in six starts against the Twins. Nelson Cruz has five career homers off Keuchel. Kenta Maeda has one career start against the White Sox. He went five innings and allowed two runs and still picked up the win. Nelson Cruz has hit 11 career homers at Guaranteed Rate Field. He hit seven of those eleven homers in 2019. Dick Bremer has improved a lot with the Summer Camp broadcasts, but I still have to go with one of my favorite duos in Jason Benetti and Steve Stone for NBC Sports Chicago. Jason Benetti does such a great job with the White Sox, MLB on ESPN games, and covering college basketball and football games. He has done a great job with the KBO games on ESPN as well. Let’s get this thing going folks. 60 games in 66 days!

Looking Ahead: ESPN 2020 Preview Of ACC Football

There is no getting around the fact that the ACC was down last season. Maybe even as down as it's ever been.

Many of the college football analysts across the country are expecting the conference to be improved in 2020. The question then becomes how much it will improve and whether or not any teams can narrow the gap between Clemson and themselves.

The ESPN Football Power Index (FPI) is calling for that second tier of ACC teams to be better in 2020. However, at the same time, it also expects Clemson to be improved this season.

Before it was announced that Justyn Ross would miss the season after undergoing surgery to repair a congenital condition, the FPI gave Clemson a 91 percent chance to win the Atlantic Division this season and an 88 percent chance to win the ACC.

They are also given a 75 percent shot to do so without a loss.

The most dangerous game inside the conference for the Tigers is their Oct. 10 match-up with Florida State in Tallahassee. The FPI gives Clemson a 91-percent chance to go on the road and get the win.

On the Coastal side, the FPI likes Virginia Tech. The Hokies, who return 20 of their 22 starters from 2019, are given a 49 percent chance to win the division, while North Carolina is given a 34 percent shot at winning the crown.

Miami could be a dark-horse contender to keep an eye on with Rhett Lashlee coming into run the offense, and D'Eriq King transferring in from Houston to compete at quarterback. However, the Canes are given just a five percent chance at pulling off that feat.

Regardless of who wins that side of the conference, the FPI would have Clemson as at least a 20-point favorite in the ACC Championship Game in December.

The Allstate Playoff Predictor gives Clemson an 81 percent chance at appearing in one of the College Football Playoff semifinal games, while every other ACC team is given less than a one percent chance.

The Tigers are also the favorite to win a national title, with the FPI giving them a 36 percent shot, the highest of any FBS team. Watch full online..... 

https://casvids.com/watch/tXQ2NonO1TQlBPY

So, while it is conceivable that the ACC will be better in 2020, that doesn't mean there are any teams gaining ground on the Tigers. In fact, it would appear that as of now, the gap between Clemson and the rest of the league is still growing.

Bowl Previews: December 21

After dipping our toes in the water we dive right in. December 21st has the highest number of bowls per day in the whole year. Let’s check it out.

Celebration Bowl: Alcorn State 9-3 (6-1) vs #23 North Carolina A&T 8-3 (6-2) (Atlanta, GA)

The HBCU National Championship Game pits two of the most successful teams in Black College Football against each other once more. Alcorn State won the SWAC Championship Game for the fourth time in six seasons with a solid 39-24 victory over Southern. The Braves are playing in their third Celebration Bowl, and are facing off against a familiar and unwelcome opponent.

North Carolina A&T has appeared in four of the five Celebration Bowls since the founding of the game. The Aggies have so far dominated the new HBCU title game, victimizing Alcorn State twice in the process. This year, A&T enters in a slightly weaker position. Florida A&M would be in Atlanta were it not for a postseason ban from the NCAA. North Carolina A&T won the spot by finishing in 2nd in the MEAC. Can the Aggies keep their success in the Celebration Bowl alive or will the Braves finally triumph?

-

New Mexico Bowl: Central Michigan 8-5 (6-2) vs San Diego State 9-3 (5-3) (Albuquerque, NM)

The New Mexico Bowl pits two of the better teams in the MAC and MWC against each other. Central Michigan has experienced a turnaround in Jim McElwain’s first year in Mount Pleasant. The Chippewas were one of the worst teams in FBS ball last season but rebounded to win the MAC West in 2019. They were upset in the MAC Championship and have been relegated to Albuquerque, but they still face a challenging opponent.

San Diego State has been a consistent winner among the G5 this past decade. The Aztecs’s rock solid defense was mostly able to mask a sub-par offense, but it hindered SDSU from truly ascending to the top of the ranks in the Mountain West (and basically cost them the MWC West division). Still, the season saw some high points: wins over UCLA and BYU.

-

Cure Bowl: Liberty 7-5 vs Georgia Southern 7-5 (5-3) (Orlando, FL)

Liberty is playing in their first ever bowl games. The youngest FBS team only took years to reach the postseason. It was a weak schedule, but hey, baby steps.

Georgia Southern haven’t quite reasserted themselves as the cream of the Sun Belt, but the Eagles are on the right path. GSU managed to upend rival Appalachian State, handing the Mountaineers their only loss on the season. Chad Lunsford’s group get to reacquaint themselves with another recent refugee from the FCS when they take on Liberty.

-

Boca Raton Bowl: SMU 10-2 (6-2) at Florida Atlantic 10-3 (7-1) (Boca Raton, FL)

SMU has had their best season since the 1980′s. The Mustangs were tantalizingly close to the AAC West Championship and a date with the Cotton Bowl. It’ll have to wait for another year, but Southern Methodist can definitely celebrate a job well done. Who knows what the future has in store for Sonny Dykes and company.

Florida Atlantic doesn’t have to travel far for their bowl game. The Owls won Conference-USA for the second time in three years under Lane Kiffin, and while the author of their turnaround has departed, FAU looks poised to continue their on-filed success. SMU will be a tall task for these Owls, expect a lot of points.

-

Camellia Bowl: Florida International 6-6 (3-5) vs Arkansas State 7-5 (5-3) (Montgomery, AL)

FIU took a bumpy route to the postseason, but the Butch Davis’s Panthers made it all the same. Despite finishing tied for fourth in the C-USA East Division, Florida International made the bowl thanks to a shocking upset over Miami late in the year. It must have been a little emotional for old coach Davis, but his squad can celebrate another bowl, and that’s the most important thing.

Arkansas State continues to be the Sun Belt’s most consistent winner. The Red Wolves placed 2nd in the West Division. Head coach Blake Anderson personally overcame a lot of hardship this year. My hat’s off to him on a job well done.

-

Las Vegas Bowl: #19 Boise State 12-1 (8-0) vs Washington 7-5 (4-5) (Las Vegas, NV)

Now this one is interesting, although a bit of a letdown for both teams all the same. Boise State was three points away from an undefeated season and a spot in the Cotton Bowl, but lost heartbreaker to BYU while starting QB Hank Bachmeier was injured. When healthy, the Broncos steamrolled the rest of the Mountain West. They’ll be well positioned for another run at the NY6 next year, but for now they’ll have to overcome a familiar face.

This isn’t the 2019 Washington thought they’d see. The Huskies have been the #1 team in the PAC-12 since breaking through in 2016, but UW fell short too many times this year to keep things going. Unfortunately, head coach Chris Petersen, who elevated Washington back to these illustrious heights, is calling it quits due to mental exhaustion. One of the most successful coaches in the 21st century, who authored Boise’s best year as well as the turnaround in Seattle, is taking a break from the game. We wish him the best. It must seem like a fitting, but perhaps cruel twist of fate to play his old team in his last game.

-

New Orleans Bowl: #20 Appalachian State 12-1 (7-1) vs UAB 9-4 (6-2) (New Orleans, LA)

Much like Boise State, Appalachian State was so close to so much more. The Mountaineers pulled off upsets of both North and South Carolina, and had their best chance yet at an undefeated season were it not for a 3 point loss to Georgia Southern. They would have been the first Sun Belt team to ever make a major bowl game. Unfortunately, head coach Eliah Drinkwitz won’t be joining his team, he’s headed to Missouri. It’s a tough life out there to be a successful G5 program.

UAB continues to defy expectations. The Blazers didn’t win Conference-USA again, but they won the West Division in a stirring display of grit. They’re one of college football’s best stories of the past decade. I wish them luck, they’ll need it against App State.
