Travis Hunter Leads 2024 Heisman Trophy Finalists Announcement

Arizona State running back Cam Skattebo is unlikely to be named a Heisman Trophy finalist despite his impressive performance in the Big 12 title game and ranking second in scrimmage yards nationally. Skattebo's late rise in the Heisman conversation and the timing of voting submissions have hindered his candidacy. While he ranks highly in several statistical categories, including forced missed tackles and fourth-quarter effectiveness, he remains outside the top eight in betting odds, with other players like Travis Hunter and Ashton Jeanty favored to make the finalist list.

Sivir Update Ends LoL's Oldest Meme in Patch 13.9

League of Legends' champion Sivir has finally received an update after 13 years, with a new base splash art that fixes her odd standing position. Riot Games has updated many champions' original splash art over the years, with Sivir being the latest. While some fans are happy with the new art, others have criticized its lack of color vibrance and called for a full art and sustainability update (ASU).
