About Matthew »

My name is Matt Svoboda. I am a husband, father, and a lover of sports. I was born in the Midwest and raised in the South. I follow college football and college basketball most closely. A majority of what I write will be on those two sports, but don't be surprised when I write about the NBA, NFL, and MMA. I have a unique perspective when it comes to college football because I grew up in both Big 12 country and SEC country. I have been in the middle of the 'who's the better conference' debate my whole life and I have seen both sides. Through my writing you will see onto which side I fall.

The Shortlist »

Favorite Athletes

Michael Jordan
Favorite Sports Teams

Nebraska Cornhuskers
Favorite Coaches

Tom Osborne-best of all time
All Time Sports Moment

Way too many to choose from.
Most Memorable Game Attended

When my soccer team won the state tournament. I was the goalie and it was glorious!
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

The ongoing record of consecutive sell out crowds by the University of Nebraska's football program.
Ruth or Mays?

Ruth
Unitas or Montana?

Can I choose both?
Jordan or Russell?

Jordan
Gretzky or Orr?

Gretzky
Pele or Maradona?

Pele
Federer or Sampras?

Sampras

Earnhardt
Schumacher or Senna?

Senna
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

They all have their strengths and weaknesses, but the Big 12 is undoubtedly the best.
