Bama's already playing like shit against Tennessee. They're down 21-12 at the moment. Let's go guys!

It'd be great to see my Sooners pull off the upset over #1 Houston tonight. Down 3 at the half, game not over until the final buzzer.

This hurt man. Bama would've been in 1st place in the SEC. Now, the best they can finish is a tie for 2nd, which isn't bad at all. It's just they had that game in the palm of their hands. All in all though, they're headed to the tournament.

HANOVER, N.H. (AP) — The Dartmouth men’s basketball team voted to unionize Tuesday in an unprecedented step toward forming the first labor union for college athletes and another attack on the NCAA’s deteriorating amateur business model.

In an election supervised by the National Labor Relations Board in the school’s Human Resources offices, the players voted 13-2 to join Service Employees International Union Local 560, which already represents some Dartmouth workers. Every player on the roster participated.
