You knew Viktor Hovland wasn’t going to spend too much time away from the PGA Tour. After finishing in the Top 25 at the Boise Open over the weekend, Viktor earned his PGA Tour card for the 2019-2020 season. I would imagine he’ll have that tour card for the foreseeable future, congrats Viktor!!

We saw it countless times in orange and black, but it’s still so cool that we’re seeing it the NFL. Hopefully we’ll get to see some regular season TD connections soon!

Not sure how a guy with three 1000+ yard seasons and a Bilentikoff is a “gem” but cool, we’ll go with it.

The Oklahoma State quarterback commit traveled south into Arizona and put on a show for Norco High School. In week 1 of his senior year, he threw for 476 yards and 7 touchdowns in a 52-27 victory against Williams. I think that’ll play...
