Womens Brandon Fusco Jersey , Matt Whitaker was named the acting Attorney General of the United States after Jeff Sessions’ resignation. He is now in position to make very important decisions about the fate of the nation. One look at Whitaker’s Twitter account, also reveals he’s got some very, VERY basic opinions about sports, folks. He’s made his account private thanks to some old tweets criticizing Robert Mueller, but before he did we went through his account to find the most ... regular? ... sports takes he had. Some backstory on Whitaker in general: he graduated from Iowa, played football for the Hawkeyes in the 1990s, and even appeared in the 1991 Rose Bowl between the Hawkeyes and Washington Huskies. But back to his sports takes, which he’s got plenty of: Various opinions on Iowa football As a former Hawkeye TE, there’s a lot of this, too: Tim Tebow Might’ve been one of the few! Randy Moss Football in general Same, tbh. Lifting weights in his free time: That’s ... somehow not surprising. Oh yeah, and take a gander at his cover photo: I’m not mocking this at all — the dude can lift some serious weight. The Chicago Blackhawks, and sports in general, for mental health.

There’s about a one-year gap in Whitaker’s Twitter history, after which he stopped dipping so frequently into the sports takes for some reason.

Welcome to Hate Week, the weekend when lots of FBS teams play their biggest rivals. This college football season hasn’t really been great, but there’s something in the big-name rivalry games every year. Regardless of how few teams are in Playoff contention, everybody has something to play for in rivalry weekend.While there’s plenty of debate on the best rivalries played each year over Thanksgiving weekend, here’s a question: which conference has the best overall group?Let’s run through how each Power 5 league does Hate Week, listing the most notable annual games.Big Ten Illinois vs. NorthwesternPurdue vs. IndianaMinnesota vs. WisconsinMichigan vs. Ohio StateI don’t have to sell you on Michigan-Ohio State. That game stands on its own, whether a fourth down spot is determining a Playoff berth or not. Illinois and Northwestern is a football game. Minnesota-Wisconsin has a damn axe.

They hang in conference limbo. Louisville and Kentucky is a basketball-only hate fest, but the football game has enough hatred there make it fun. Florida-Florida State hasn’t had national stakes for both teams since the ‘90s, but there’s a bowl streak on the line for the Noles this year and Florida’s offense is actually watchable — sometimes.

If you’re looking for real good in-state wars, the SEC, ACC, or Pac-12 is probably your bag. The SEC has incredible off-field drama to spice its games up. The ACC has, well, some games outside of the ones it shares with the SEC. The Big Ten has tons of trophies, and the Pac-12 manages to have religion as a stake. And that’s before we even get into the annual rivalries in the Group of 5 conferences.
