They're trailing Pacific, 31-26, with about three minutes to go in the first half. Pacific is 5-4 and has lost to some good teams (Arkansas, Missouri) but has also lost to Hawaii and Northern Arizona.

SBNation requires you be in the Big 10 or SEC if not playing for UConn or N.D.


At least CBS couldn’t leave Audi off its list

Trump’s cabinet appointees are made up of strong, smart people that will support his agenda. A bunch of MAGA white guys right? Who knew they would be so diverse? They are breaking barriers right and left (pun intended).

Scott Bessett - Treasury Secretary: would be the first openly gay Republican cabinet member to be approved by the Senate. Move over Pothole Pete, Bessett will also become the highest ranking openly gay cabinet member.

Scott Turner - Nominee for HUD Secretary is black

Tulsi Gabbard - The first Hindu elected to Congress could be the first Pacific Islander to serve as Director of National Intelligence.

Susie Wiles - First woman to serve as White House Chief of Staff.

Caroline Leavitt - At 27 will be the youngest White House Press Secretary and the first from Generation Z.

Marco Rubio - Likely to be the first Latino to serve as Secretary of State.

Elise Stefanik - At 40 could be the youngest U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.

Dr. Mehmet Oz - A Turkish American woul be the first Muslim to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

Dr. Janette Nesheiwat - Daughter of Jordanian Christian immigrants is the appointee for Surgeon General.

Of course Trump is married to a legal immigrant, and his VP is married to the daughter of legal Indian immigrants. Usha Vance will also be the first Hindu American Second Lady.

That’s not even counting the leaders of DOGE.

Quite the group, considering it was assembled by the next Hitler!
