What are the PCSA's chances of passing the House? We just don't know yet. A lot of people for a long time said nothing would pass the Senate, and it just did with 77 votes. So don't rule anything out. We'll see you in November.

Sen. Maria Cantwell (D) on the Protect College Sports Act's passage: "The last thing we need to have is another Pac-12 incident." The conference realignment fallout of 2021-23 played a big role in getting us here.

NEWS: The Senate has passed the Protect College Sports Act, 77-22 It will go to the House, which likely won't take it up until after the midterm elections, making its passage chances TBD. But a historic step. Here's a basic rundown of what's in the bill: www.nytimes.com/athletic/749...

News: The SEC announces Tennessee's onside drop kick should have been penalized for not happening directly on the 35-yard line and because of the kicker's movement. Would've been a penalty and re-kick.

Can't say I'm surprised Jon Sumrall already has Florida making big waves. I spent a few days behind the scenes with him at Tulane and found an ex-jock with a fascinating mind. www.nytimes.com/athletic/675...

Sunday Thoughts: Texas DL Colin Simmons had one of the best pass-rushing days I've ever seen. 5 sacks, 10 pressures, one hilarious penalty, on the road against a veteran OL.

Three years ago, Dan Lanning faced the exact same 4th down decision at the end of the 1st half at Washington. He went for it, the play failed, and he said he made the wrong call given the situation. Tonight, he takes the points. Oregon leads 13-10 at half.
