Current Sports | 11/18/15 | #589

Michigan State Men's Basketball, Denzel Valentine, College Football Rankings, Kevin McHale, Detroit Lions, and Detroit Pistons.

On this Wednesday version of Current Sports, Al and Isaac discuss the electric start to the season for Michigan State men's basketball, after a 79-73 win over the Kansas Jayhawks. Senior guard Denzel Valentine had a mouthwatering performance and asserted himself into the company of a very select few with a triple-double. After putting his accomplishments into perspective, Al and Isaac move onto the college football playoff rankings, and again point out anything that seems awry. Kevin McHale's firing also shocked both, but what was the logic behind the move? And finally, brief recaps are provided on the big wins for Detroit sports.
