New York City just let out a sigh of grief and despair. If the walls of Madison Square Garden could talk, they’d ask why? Why must the cities of Syracuse and Hartford become strangers that are four hours apart from one another?

Why are Morgantown and Pittsburgh merely two towns separated by one interstate?

Butler's upset of Indiana knocked the Hoosiers all the way out of the Top 5, and Arizona's comeback win over Florida moved Sean Miller's Wildcats up to No. 3, but unbeaten Duke still hung on to the top spot.

The week ahead is fairly tame as far as top-flight non-conference games are concerned, as the holiday break looms, but between Christmas and New Year's lies some excellent Top 25 match-up

Once upon a time, as former NFL head coach Jim Mora so eloquently put it, “Playoffs?!?!?!?!” We are counting down the days till we no longer have to deal with our dear old friend, the BCS.

That’s right; soon we will have a new aspect of college football to complain about: a playoff system. Well, sort of.

Duke is the top team in the first PSR college basketball poll of the season. The Blue Devils are 9-0 and own impressive victories over Ohio State, Kentucky, Louisville and Minnesota. Indiana, Michigan and Florida also received No. 1 votes.

Duke is off this week, but Saturday brings a good slate of games as No. 2 Indiana squares off against Butler, No.

Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, edging Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o.

Notre Dame and Alabama will square off for the BCS National Championship one month from now, but PSR's voters will conduct one final poll after the bowl games are completed next month.

While the Fighting Irish and Crimson Tide will be the main attraction, there are plenty of other interesting bowl match-ups on the way, including Northern Illinois vs.

Every year the BCS pisses us off. Let’s not be circumspect about the details; it’s a pathetic, money-making, rob the poor, pay the rich, corporate America-first system that has been flawed since it began.

Let’s take a look at the top five reasons why it will ruin the game of college football for a 14th straight year:

Notre Dame, Ohio State and Alabama all recieved first-place votes in PSR's Top 20.

Notre Dame completed an undefeated regular season in typical Fighting Irish fashion -- with a narrow victory on the heels of a dominating defensive effort.

You can’t divide the Major League Baseball season into four whole parts—162 divided by four comes out to 40.5—but after last night’s game against Milwaukee, the Pittsburgh Pirates officially rounded the quarter turn of their 2013 season. The report out of PNC Park: so far, so good—but there’s a long way to go.

Mario Lemieux and Evgeni Malkin both won it. Other great Penguins like Tom Barrasso and Bryan Trottier also hoisted it. No, it’s not the Stanley Cup; it’s the Calder Trophy for the NHL’s most outstanding first year player.

The Pitt baseball team entered May in the midst of one of the best seasons in program history, chasing a Big East title and a berth in the College World Series. It's hard to imagine a better way for the Panthers to enter the ACC.
