It’s safe to say college football’s Ohio State versus Michigan rivalry was in the doldrums prior to Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh’s return to his alma mater last year. The Buckeyes have dominated Michigan since the turn of the century, winning 12 of the 14 matchups between the two schools from 2001-2014. With a 10-3 record in his first season as Michigan’s head coach, Harbaugh is bringing life back to a rivalry that many consider the best in college football.
To end the interview, MacKinnon was asked to give advice on how to get a job in the field. Two key pieces to his advice were, when you apply and go in for an interview to not hesitate to ask questions to the employer. That this is ultimately your career choice, and you need to make sure that it'll be a right fit for you. He also, and most notably stated, that you need to determine what area of communications you want to enter, but to also be open to other opportunities because those opportunities might take you somewhere unexpected but ultimately beneficial.
MORGANTOWN, W.Va.--Over the last several years, speedy wide receivers are one thing the West Virginia University football team can be known for.
Is there really much to say about the Patriots offense? They are the leaders in offensive yards and the second highest scoring offense of the year (ESPN). They are led by the transcendent quarterback Tom Brady and exemplary offensive mind Bill Belichick. On the other side, the Eagles are led by Nick Foles and Doug Pederson. The Eagles are third in passing yards, fourth in rushing yards, and fourth in points in the postseason (ESPN).
Since 1954, Brown v. Board of Education ended segregated schools allowing all students to attend the school they want to. The issue of racism and equality are still things that are discussed in the present day and affirmative action is one of the issues that people talk about. Most people are not necessarily comfortable talking about which is part of the reason the issue is still prevalent in today’s society. One of the most notable cases regarding affirmative action is Fisher v. Texas. When comparing this case to Brown v. Board of Education, which could be pinned as the case that began affirmative action, there are many points that can be related to each case. Within the cases, the points that cause issues in society today are race and equality.
The history of LGBTQIA+ rights in the United States is long and complicated. The identities within the LGBTQIA+ community that are accepted have shifted over the years as the majority of the population comes to understand some identities to be commonplace and struggles to understand others. However, the gaining of rights and acceptance by the LGBTQIA+ community has nearly always been tied to legal recognition. Lawrence v. Texas questions whether or not a Texas statute that bans homosexual sodomy is constitutional. Although LGBTQIA+ rights issues are controversial, the statute that convicted John Lawrence and Tyson Garner for having private, consensual gay sex as well as the means of conviction are clearly unconstitutional on several grounds,
It is the state championship game and your team has rose up from the bottom of the ranks. Even though you are the underdog, your team has pushed through any obstacles that were thrown in your way. You are much smaller than the number one team in the state, but you still find a way to keep the game tied. You are the senior quarterback and it would mean everything if you won. The fans are all in the stands screaming and you smile as you take in your last experience under the Friday night lights. There are two minutes left in the second half and the ball gets snapped on the third down at the 20 yard line. You catch the ball and look around frantically. All of your receivers are covered and you decide you have to run, but before you can move, a 300 pound linebacker slams you to the ground. A flag is thrown, but it is too late, everything goes black, after a few seconds, you regain sight, but you are still in a daze. You slowly stand up, but fall over immediately. You have a few seconds to rest while the ref is checking on you, your head is pounding as you feel the concussion, but you want to keep playing. Your coach leaves it up to you, and you step back out onto the field. You are now at the 15 yard line and the ball is snapped. You make eye contact with your wide receiver and pass the ball, it sails through the air. As you watch it leave your hand, you see the same linebacker out of the corner of your eye. Everything goes black again, but this time you don’t wake up. This
The heat bears down on me, as I feel my skin burning in the hot summer sun. Dust and dirt floats around the air and a thin layer of grime covers my entire body. Sweat drips around my goggles while adrenaline fills my body and my heart races. In the middle of nowhere in Virginia, I feel at home, I feel the turf under my cleats and the cool metal of the stick in my hands. As the timer ticks down, the buzzer rings, and the game begins. I look to my left and see my dad sitting on the sideline, ready to cheer as loud as possible. To my right I find my teammates, the most loyal group of friends I have, ecstatic about the potential of winning.
From the first two national champions, Rutgers and Princeton, to last year’s debateable Auburn national championship winning team, college football has always had difficulties deciding national champions. The BCS National Championship game was thought to give a less prejudice opinion on which teams play in the championship game than humans did. However, it has stimulated more controversy in college sports than Cal-Stanford “The Play.” The problem with the BCS teams is, it chooses two teams that are based on profit, popularity, and record. The BCS is in need of replacement by a playoff system because with a playoff system college football teams have more of an opportunity to show themselves.
Pat loves to play video games, especially his favorite game. Let's say that his favorite game is a first person shooter and he plays it everyday for at least two hours. After playing his game for about a week, Pat’s sensory receptor cells become less responsive to the basic mechanics of the game, which allows him to focus more on the details that change each time he plays it. This gradual decline in sensitivity to a constant stimulus is called sensory adaptation. Now let's say that during that week, Pat only played online with other players. While playing, Pat always died at a particular spot. Pat would then notice that every time he went to that spot he died and might decide to try a different route next time. This tendency to perceive objects or situations from a particular frame of reference is called a perceptual set.
