Hey there sportlings, this is The Sports Guy back to break down a big homecoming weekend, and a great one at that. Both home teams won! How many times have you said that at MSU? Probably about as often as the Cubs win the series.

The Sports Guy wants to say congrats to the Red Hawks on a big Conference win by MSU. The Red Hawk football squad is 4 -1 and sit at second in the conference looking for that NJAC championship. The Sports Guy hopes that MSU's offense, who played a disappearing act against Kean, are thanking their defense, who had more hits than Michael Jackson, for carrying them to victory.

As for Red Hawks QB John DiGirolamo, the poor kid had his worse game of the season, completing only 30 percent of his passes for 85 yards, and zero TDs. It wasn't all his fault though, the Cougars were constantly pressuring the Sophomore signal caller. The Sports Guy says his offensive line was missing more blocks than a three-year-old's Lego set. Cougar's D had Digirolamo looking like a battered housewife, sacking him five times.

Aside from Eugene Vick, who ran for almost 250 yards, MSU couldn't get it going. They accounted for no points, and whenever the team was close to a score, penalties stopped them dead in their tracks. The Sports Guy says that they scored less than a 70-year-old fat alcoholic and were lucky that the special teams were able to come up with some points in their absence.

Three conference games in the next four weeks to end the football season is going to really test the character of this team. Can they bounce back after a game they clearly dominated in every way but the score, and put together a championship run? Not if they repeat Saturday's performance, but The Sport's Guy thinks they can. And that's from the lips of The Sports Guy to ears of God.

The Sports Guy can't think of anything bad to say about the men's soccer team. They are 13 - 1 - 2, there is nothing to say, the record speaks for itself. Six straight victories and counting. Did these guys forget how to lose? They haven't lost a game since Sept 10, and have outscored their opponents 27 - 6 from that point on. Sentowski wants to take the conference over, and his soldiers are packed and ready for the rise of the Red Hawk dynasty.

Ryan Morgan has catapulted this offense that struggled early in the season. In the last three games he has four goals, for a total of nine goals this season. He's got more moves than a chess game, and is just problem for any defense in the conference. The Sports Guy says that the Red Hawks are having a magical soccer season, and this conference is in the bag, like potato chips. Till next time this is The Sports Guy.
