Hello and welcome to another edition of 'Live Blogging on Shish on College Football'. Tonight it is one of the signature rivalries in NCAA FBS Football. The Michigan Wolverines take on Notre Dame Fighting Irish. The Wolverines are ranked #14 in both writers and coaches poll. While the Irish are #11 in the Coaches Poll and #12 in the Writers' Poll. 

This is looking like a low-scoring affair, as both teams were ranked in the Top 40 in the nation in defense. The Wolverines will have 10 starters returning. While the Irish will have 9 starters returning, including my fellow high school alumni, Junior Cornerback Julian Love. 

Michigan will start Junior Transfer Shea Patterson at quarterback. While the Irish will have Senior Brandon Wimbaush at quarterback. 

It is the Michigan Wolverines taking on Notre Dame Fighting Irish, coming up shortly.

Final Thoughts:
After going off to a 14-0 Irish start, both defenses clamped down. But in the end the Irish made more plays in the return of their rivalry with Michigan.

A big win for the Irish, as they get an early jump on the CFP race, compared to Wolverines. However the Wolverines can come back if they run the table and win the Big Ten Championship. But that is easier said than done, when they have to face Ohio State, Penn State, and Michigan State, in their division. 

The Wolverines will be at home to play Western Michigan. While the Irish will have another home game to play Ball State.

Assists: Winston (MSU) 8 assists

Final Thoughts:
Although Sparty turned the ball over 25 times tonight, Bridges and Jackson took over this game in Champaign. As for the Illini, they were getting gashed with their lack of interior defense. 

Spartans will face Wisconsin on Friday. While the Illini will play the Hoosiers on Wednesday.

Hello and welcome to another edition of ‘Live Blogging on Shish Baseball’. Tonight it is the deciding Game 7 of the 2017 World Series, between Houston Astros and Los Angeles Dodgers. The Series is tied at 3-3. The Astros have won games 2, 3, and 5. While the Dodgers have won 1. 4. And 6.

The Astros was hoping to close out the series, with Justin Verlander last night. However, they came up short as the Dodgers defeated the Astros 3-1.

The Dodgers feel more confident about tonight. They feel that they have the better of the pitching matchup. They also have the advantage when it comes to the bullpen. Their bullpen is led by closer Kenley Jansen. Dodgers Manager Dave Roberts could also use their ace starter Clayton Kershaw.

Tonight’s starters are a pair of righties. Lance McCullers, Jr for the Astros, and Yu Darvish for the Dodgers. McCullers is 1-0, 2.95 ERA, and 16 Ks. Darvish is 2-1, 4.15 ERA, and 14 Ks.

It is the Houston Astros and Los Angeles Dodgers. Game 7 of the 2017 World Series, coming up shortly.

ToG: 3:37

Final Thoughts: Well another World Series Championship drought coming to an end. It just seemed like last night's game wasn't a heartbreaking Game 6 that some World Series runner-up experience, being up 3-2. The Astros started the night with a double by Springer. Then Bregman reaches second base on a throwing error by Cody Bellinger, scoring Springer. Then in the Top of the 2nd Inning, the Astros scored three runs highlighted by a 2-run home run by Springer. 

As for the Dodgers, there will be some questions about Dave Roberts decision making in going to the Bullpen early in some of these World Series games. 

When the Houston Astros look back at this season, it came down to 2 seconds at the end of August. That is how many seconds to spar during the waiver-trade deadline. That was the deadline the Astros had to meet to get Justin Verlander. 

Once again, the Houston Astros are the 2017 World Series Champions.
