Week 10 Report Card: Ducks earn strong grades after massive win

It's safe to say that the Oregon Ducks took over Ohio Stadium in Columbus on Saturday. Opening as nearly double digit underdogs on the road, the Ducks defeated the Ohio State Buckeyes , 41-28 — but the final score doesn't come close to explain just how much Oregon dominated from the second through most of the fourth quarter. The Buckeyes managed to score a pair of garbage-time touchdowns, but Oregon led 38-14 when Buckeyes fans headed for the exits early in the fourth quarter. It was a shocking result considering the lack of success that the Ducks have had in 2026, but they put it all together in a game that they needed to have in order to keep their Big Ten title and College Football Playoff hopes alive. Across the board, there were individual efforts that the Ducks can be proud of. In a matchup featuring loads of talent lined up across from Oregon, they battled and ultimately came out on top after dropping down 14-0 to begin the game. The Ducks stayed resilient and bounced back, scoring 38 unanswered points, delivering themselves their sixth win. Let's dive into this week's report card, featuring grades and analysis for every

Michigan State Volleyball falls to Ohio State in five set thriller

Michigan State volleyball fell to Ohio State in a five-set battle Saturday night, coming up short in a back-and-forth battle between two surging conference foes. Despite the loss, Michigan State finished ahead of Ohio State in several offensive categories. The Spartans recorded 65 kills and 71 digs compared to the Buckeyes' 63 kills and 62 digs. MSU also finished with 162 attack attempts, just five fewer than Ohio State's 167, showing how closely matched the two teams were throughout the five-set battle. Following the loss, head coach Kristen Kelsay kept a positive outlook on the season. "I think our best volleyball is still in front of us, so that's exciting," Kelsay said. "We've only got three big time matches left, so that's going to be our driving force here in the next week." The Spartans came out strong in the first set, overcoming an early Ohio State lead to secure a 25-19 victory. MSU found its rhythm with a four-point run to cut Ohio State's lead to one. The Spartans eventually took control midway through the set as senior outside hitter Alanna Bankston recorded a kill to extend MSU's lead to six. The Spartans started with a 4-1 lead in

St. John's dominates Gonzaga 44-3 in century-old high school rivalry

When talking about the St. John’s College High vs. Gonzaga College High rivalry , fans brought up a few comparisons: Michigan vs. Ohio State. Auburn vs. Alabama. USC vs. Notre Dame. That’s a tall order for a high school football game. But on a sunny fall afternoon in Washington, D.C., the atmosphere at St. John’s' packed Fernandez Stadium sure delivered. This year’s iteration may not have quite replicated the often-tight competition of its college football comparisons – St. John’s took down the Eagles 44-3 – but that didn’t touch the rowdy enthusiasm of either fan base in the sold-out crowd. St. John’s students hung sheets painted with “Birds Aren’t Real” and “Beat Gonzaga” (with all the Gs ex-ed out, of course), while Gonzaga kept up their chants of “God is Purple” all the way until the blowout’s final seconds. More: This weekend, DC has a different century-spanning power struggle: St John's vs Gonzaga There were some extra bragging rights on the line during this 106th meeting of the legendary D.C. rivalry – heading in, the all-time series record was knotted up at 50-50-5. After back-to-back Gonzaga victories in 2024 and 2025, the Cadets’ dominant revenge victory puts them back on
