I know what you\u2019re thinking. This is the University of Chicago, a school better known for its rigorous academics, storied traditions, and wild frat parties than for its sports. But according to various sources, we actually have a really good football team this year, and from what I\u2019ve heard, we\u2019re only a few quality wins away from the World Series.<\/p>\n
We have this guy, he\u2019s got an absolute cannon for an arm. I\u2019m forgetting his name right now- I think it\u2019s something with an A. Arrieto maybe? Anyways, he\u2019s been on a tear since the Break (don\u2019t we all come back from Summer Break in peak shape?). He went to TCU originally, but he must\u2019ve transferred to Chicago this year. What a steal!<\/p>\n
Our defense has been just as impressive as our offense this year. I haven\u2019t seen too much tackling, but boy, can we catch the ball. The coach put this first year into a starting spot halfway through the season, and this kid is already one of the best defenders in the country. He may be young, but you should see the way he glides on the field. He is definitely the shortstop of the future for this team.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a fun fact: the previous record for most wins in a college football season was 14. Can you guess how many we already have, not even counting the playoffs? 97! That\u2019s right, we SHATTERED that record. I guess you could say that Chicago sports are trending upward. I don\u2019t want to jinx it, but I really think that this is the year that our 107 year drought is going to end.<\/p>\n
