Super Bowl LVII preview: Chiefs vs. Eagles

By Andrew McGuinness · Wednesday, Feb. 1, 2023

In some ways, the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles are in similar spots. Both teams, after years of suffering, are looking for their second Super Bowl in their last five years. Both have a superstar player with the last name Kelce. They are led by a do-it-all quarterback with gobs of talent and playoff experience. There is a healthy mix of players who have been to the Super Bowl before and those about to taste a stage like no other not just in football, but in all of sports, for the first time.

Up-and-down Irish look to stabilize against Badgers

By Andrew McGuinness · Friday, Jan. 27, 2023

No matter who they play or what they do, Notre Dame hockey has been unable to escape the seesaw that their 2022-23 season has become. Since Nov. 11, the Irish have played seven two-game series against the same opponent, and they've split all seven. It doesn't matter whether the Irish are playing teams at the top, middle or bottom of the Big Ten standings. It's been win one, lose one for almost as long as the Irish can remember, a pattern that has prevented them from looking like last year's near-Frozen Four team for anything more than a brief moment.
