– Ranked ahead of Oklahoma, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Penn State, Florida State, Miami, Alabama and Georgia in college football are . . . Rutgers and Boise State?
– The NFL team that has been shut out twice in one season on “Monday Night Football” is … the Raiders?
– A first-place team with a record of 6-2 is … the Saints?
– A last-place team with a record of 2-6 is … the Steelers?
– The NBA’s best-selling jersey is that of a player from … Cleveland?
– Among hockey’s most dominant teams are . . . Anaheim, Atlanta, Buffalo, Dallas and Nashville?
