The Arizona Cardinals will take on the Carolina Panthers in the annual Hall of Fame exhibition game on Aug. 6 as part of enshrinement week. The Hall announced the matchup on Wednesday between two of the teams that have former stars set to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame next summer.
Houston averages 77.5 points per game (142nd in college basketball) while giving up 62.3 per outing (second in college basketball). It has a +455 scoring differential overall and outscores opponents by 15.2 points per game. The 77.5 points the Cougars average are 5.0 fewer than the Cowboys give up.
The 49ers' plan at wide receiver this season was draped in maroon and gold. The Niners were supposed to ride into this postseason on the backs of two Arizona State products, a Tempe two-step atop the wide receiver depth chart designed to torment defensive coordinators from Seattle to Philadelphia. Brandon Aiyuk (Arizona State 2018-19) was the established star, the alpha, the $30-million man. Ricky Pearsall (2019-21 before transferring to Florida) was the first-round heir apparent, the route-running savant. Together, they were the Sun Devil pincer.
