2020 CFB countdown: 63 days until Georgia Football

Join us as we count down the days until Georgia kicks-off in Atlanta!

There are 63 days until Georgia football kicks-off versus Virginia in Atlanta on Sept. 7.

Flash-back to Georgia versus Buffalo in 2012 – Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray finds receiver Tavarres King for a 63-yard touchdown to put the Bulldogs up 23-6 in the second quarter.

Watch it here:

It was the No. 6 Bulldogs’ first game of the season, as well as the first time Georgia star running back Todd Gurley suited up between the hedges. Gurley shined and Georgia would go on to win against Buffalo 45-23.

Here’s the moment we knew TG3 was special….

Broncos WR Jerry Jeudy shows off impressive route running in video

Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy showed off his impressive route running in a YouTube video.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy posted a video on his YouTube page last week showing off his impressive route running.

As of Monday afternoon, the video has 32,469 views with 1,200 likes and four dislikes (probably four Raiders fans).

Fans loved the footage.

“Bro really took a whole day to flex his route running skills on us. LET’S GO JERRY,” Ritty 17 commented.

“Jerry really gunna be out here disrespecting ‘probowlers’ all his career 😂 glad you a broncos big DAWG get out there and eat 💯,” wallnnutt said.

“Haven’t had this feeling about a draft pick since Von Miller, and you were picked at 15. You’re going to be great Jerry,” commented Jordan Roblin.

Jeudy will wear jersey No. 10 this season and he is expected to serve as the team’s No. 2 wide receiver behind Pro Bowler Courtland Sutton. KJ Hamler, who was picked in the second round of this year’s draft, is expected to serve as Denver’s No. 3 wide receiver.

Broncos quarterback Drew Lock will be surrounded by weapons in 2020.

Von Miller launches vlog series on his YouTube channel

Broncos outside linebacker Von Miller has uploaded some great content on his YouTube channel.

Denver Broncos has launched a vlog series on his YouTube channel, VMStudio58. Two weeks ago, Miller uploaded 15 episodes. Last Friday, Miller uploaded a video of his No. 40 jersey being retired at DeSoto High School. That was his most recent upload.

Here is Miller’s intro video on his YouTube page:

“Hey guys, welcome to my YouTube channel,” Miller says in the video. [It will] give you an exclusive look into my life. We’ve got pranks, skits and just dope content that you wouldn’t normally see. Appreciate you guys for the support.”

Two years ago, Miller launched a show on Facebook called “Von Miller’s Studio 58.” The last episode of that series drew 421,000 views.

Miller’s Facebook show mostly featured interviews with fellow NFL players. His YouTube channel appears to be more focused on Miller himself.

Miller has 3,632 video views and 174,000 subscribers so far. Those numbers will undoubtedly go up as more fans become aware of his new YouTube series.

Pittsburgh Steelers YouTube channel sees significant rise in fan engagement

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been utilizing YouTube to interact with their fans more and more during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Steelers are socially paving the way for how the league’s 31 other teams should best approach the use of YouTube to engage their fans.

There hasn’t been a better time to attract fans than during the COVID-19 pandemic that has otherwise brought the sports world to a halt.

It all began for the Steelers shortly after the NFL posted the full broadcast of Super Bowl 54 on its own YouTube channel in mid-March.

On March 29, the Steelers took to YouTube Premieres to bring fans a livestream of their Super Bowl 43 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Similar to a Facebook Watch Party, YouTube Premieres allows users to schedule a video upload and create a shareable public watch page.

“Obviously it was not live – it was a re-air – but we behaved as if [Super Bowl 43] was happening live and we were able to engage with some of our former players who were key figures in the game and then push that out to other platforms,” said Ryan Huzjak, Steelers director of corporate partnership and sales in an interview with Ed Moran of Front Office Sports. “That allowed us to engage and have some fun and get some reaction as if it was happening right then and there.”

According to Front Office Sports, the Steelers’ Livestream Premiere tallied more than 151,000 views – 192% more than average for other club live game premieres. Its 2.1 million total minutes watched was a 214% increase, while impressions (1.4 million, +36%), unique viewers (+155%), and engagement rate (+974%) also saw increases.

“In the last year, we grew 61% in terms of subscribers,” Huzjak said. “We’re just seeing more people subscribing to our channel and then obviously more people viewing, clicking, and spending time there as well.”

After a near 1,000% uptick in fan engagement, the Steelers’ approach to YouTube Premieres is being used as a game plan to share league-wide, according to a league spokesperson.

“We are excited to see the efforts made by our clubs like the Steelers to utilize YouTube in a way that creates deeper engagement points with our fans,” the NFL spokesperson said. “The success of activations like this help us develop best practices to share with other clubs.”

For those who enjoyed the reliving the glory of Super Bowl 43, or perhaps missed out, the team plans to livestream its other five Super Bowl victories over the next couple of months.

In the meantime, the Steelers YouTube channel has a ton of content from highlights to full-length player interviews for fans to check out.

Aunque varias ligas de Europa ya han sido oficialmente canceladas como la Holanda y la de Francia, otras tantas ya planean su regreso como la Primeira Liga de Portugal y unos mås siguen a la espera para decidir su futuro, tal es el caso de España y la Premier League de Inglaterra.

El futbol inglés se niega a cancelar su temporada, y quiere terminarla como sea. Por ello han estado escuchando todo tipo de propuestas que permitan concluir la campaña.

En la Premier League analizan diferentes escenarios, el principal, el regreso del futbol a puerta cerrada. Pensando en la integridad de los futbolistas se ha propuesto reducir el tiempo de los partidos o permitir hasta cinco cambios, de tal manera que la carga de trabajo se dosifique de mejor forma sin poner en riesgo a ningĂșn futbolista.

SegĂșn reporta el diario inglĂ©s The Sun, otra alternativa ya se encuentra sobre la mesa. Transmitir los partidos vĂ­a YouTube de manera gratuita para que toda la aficiĂłn pueda ver los encuentros sin mayor problema.

“No ha habido discusiones al respecto, pero no creo que debamos descarta ninguna idea creativa”, aseguró Rick Parry, presidente de la Premier League.

Los derechos de la Premier League hoy pertenecen a Sky Sports y BT Sports, sistemas de televisiĂłn de paga que se han quedado con la transmisiĂłn exclusiva de los encuentros de la liga inglesa desde la temporada 2013 – 2014 cuando se transmitiĂł el Ășltimo encuentro por televisiĂłn abierta.

Broncos throwback: Peyton Manning signs with Denver, football world reacts

Here’s how the NFL world reacted when Peyton Manning signed with the Broncos in 2012.

Broncos general manager John Elway pulled off the best signing of his career in 2012, landing superstar quarterback Peyton Manning on a five-year, $96 million contract.

With the anniversary of that signing one month away, the NFL’s “Throwback” channel posted a video compilation of reactions to Manning landing in Denver. The video is blocked from being viewed here but can be seen on YouTube.

After signing with the Broncos, Manning went on to help the team win the AFC West in four straight seasons, reaching two Super Bowls along the way. Following the 2015 season, Denver defeated the Panthers 24-10 in Super Bowl 50.

With that victory, Manning became the first starting quarterback in NFL history to win a Super Bowl with two different teams. He retired after that Super Bowl win with 14 Pro Bowl nods and five NFL MVP awards on his resume. Manning will be eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2021.
