What is the story about?
Good morning and welcome to our first 11am kickoff of 2025 after two straight night games. The heat is here and the uniforms are red and this should be mercifully – okay, maybe not that mercifully – over without roasting in the worst of the heat for all 3 1/2 or 4 hours of the game.
So let’s get this trolley rolling, then we can sneak home, grab a quick nap, and oil up for the Bud Crawford fight!
Onward…
- Javin Wright, Malcom Hartzog Jr. and Grant Brix are all listed as questionable. When we know, we’ll know.

- Well, as I tweeted, the guys are looking might dapper in all scarlet:

- Here’s a “We haven’t done ‘X’ in “‘ X number of years’” moment to look for post-game:

GO BIG RED!
