Dan Hampton: Breaking News, Rumors & Highlights

Hogs need a new coach, one who'll recruit and teach defense

How in the name of Dan Hampton could 16 college defenses be worse than the Arkansas Razorbacks? That's what Bobby Petrino wants to know. My guess is all of Arkansas' NIL money goes to the offense, which is why they consistently light up the scoreboard and the defense is so, so bad.

The 'NFL teammates to record double-digit sacks' quiz

Sacks are perhaps the most elusive of all football statistics. Did Deacon Jones, who coined the term ‘sack,’ really snuff over 200 quarterbacks in his career? Did the Eagles’ Norm ‘Wild Man’ Willey really drop Giants quarterback Charlie Conerley 17 times in one game during the 1952 season? Perhaps they did – but in quantifiable trivia, oral histories are as certifiable as The Book of Numbers. The NFL only started official tallies of quarterback sacks in 1982, a new standard that discounted previous individual team records and regulated the backfield conquests of past greats to myth. We can only be certain about the past 35 years – which, here, is enough for a curious category that pays homage to ‘Three Sackmaster-Peers,’ or trio of teammates who each recorded at least 10 sacks in the same season. Can you name the pass rushers below?
