home game

Da'Sean Butler kept the emotions of his final home game in check on the court, then let the tears flow afterward.

In perhaps the biggest home game in franchise history, the Saints amassed 480 yards of offense and pulled off a convincing 38-17 win over the Patriots, raising their record to 11-0.

Tebow threw for three TDs, ran for two scores and top-ranked Florida beat rival Florida State 37-10 Saturday for its sixth consecutive victory in the heated rivalry.

That could mean another big day for his elusive senior receiver.

The New York Sentinels have the second worst average attendance behind just the California Redwoods. They are averaging just 6,637 fans per home game and in a town like New York that makes them insignificant.

Granted this team is 0-5 and will likely finish year one without a win, but a new league can ill afford its New York team to draw so poorly.

Pete Carroll is hoping the return of perhaps Southern California's two most important players will put the Trojans back on track after last week's loss at Washington.

Carroll is hopeful quarterback Matt Barkley and safety Taylor Mays will be able to play in Saturday night's home game against Washington State.

The biggest home game in Boise State history became a four-quarter bullying of its big-conference neighbor, after which tempers boiled over and Oregon running back LeGarrette Blount punched a Broncos player.

Kellen Moore threw for 197 yards and a touchdown, and the 14th-ranked Broncos shoved aside No.
