What is up, everyone! The season is moving along and we’re back with our week 2 recap. This week, the rivals took on rivals, as the Sooners traveled to Ann Arbor to face the Wolverines and the Buckeyes made their way down to Auston to face the Longhorns. Unlike last year, the results differed for both teams (& we couldn’t be happier). In this episode, we also briefly give our thoughts on the US Open Finals, Coco’s loss in the semi-finals, Taylor Townsend and Katerine Siniakova’s Career Slam in doubles, and who we’re rooting for going into the men’s final.

What is up, everyone! It’s been far too long but we are FINALLY back with season 2 of Touchdown and Ties, as the best time of the year has officially commenced: football season. We don’t know about you guys but we couldn’t be happier that the season has finally started.

In typical week 1 fashion, this weekend was filled with blow outs and easy wins…for some. In this week’s episode, we’re opening up this season and talking about the home team and the questionable win against Western Michigan at home. It looks like they’re dubbing this the Michigan Miracle? I guess we’ll take it. Better to be 1-0 than 0-1.

What is up, everybody?! There’s no football on this week; so, in this special episode of Touchdown and Ties, we like to call this segment “The Bye-Week.” Similar to “The Off-Season” once football season is officially over, we’ll be diving into other exciting events around the sports world. In today’s episode, Daddy and I recap the Australian Open where Elena Rybakina has her maiden victory down under and wins her second Grand Slam title, and Carlos Alcaraz accomplishes his career slam. We then move on to Michigan basketball who is having a hell of a season and has come out BIG this past week, taking down No. 5 Nebraska and ‘lil bro, aka, No.7 Michigan State on the road. Finally, we wrap up with a quick rapid fire about the new NFL HC hires after a season of firings.
