It’s all right, college football fans. You can admit it. We get you. Most of you are just waiting for the weekend, when the truly meaningful postseason games in the Football Bowl Subdivision will take place. But hey, non-playoff football is still better than no football, right?
The bowl season continues Tuesday night with a single game on the lineup in the Lone Star State. Here’s a quick look at the participating teams, one of which had a mostly enjoyable fall in 2024 while the other is now turning an eye toward the future with a nod to its past.
Time/TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN
Why watch: The first ranked team to take the field in the bowl season seeks a second win against power conference competition. The Tigers overcame an early setback against Navy to win six of their last seven, while the Mountaineers will be in the midst of a change in leadership following an uneven Big 12 campaign. Offensive coordinator Chad Scott will coach WVU in the bowl game following Neal Brown’s dismissal. There will at least be a veteran hand at the controls in QB Garrett Greene, though he’ll want to forget his most recent outing quickly in which an interception and lost fumble helped Texas Tech on its way to a 52-15 romp. Another high-octane offense awaits. Memphis puts up over 35 points a game, led by the accomplished triumvirate of QB Seth Henigan, RB Mario Anderson Jr. and WR Roc Taylor.

Why it could disappoint: This has all the makings of a mismatch. There’s some optimism in Morgantown with the pending return of Rich Rodriguez, but fielding a competitive team here with all the portal departures will be difficult.

Scientists call for ban on creating “mirror life”  Axios

Blur’s dominance, particularly its season-based token rewards, has led to an explosion in trading volumes and user engagement.
Written By:

The NFT world is buzzing with excitement as speculation mounts over OpenSea’s potential token launch and airdrop, fueled by a recent registration in the Cayman Islands and a cryptic announcement from the platform’s co-founder. 
After a quiet but intriguing statement by OpenSea CEO Devin Finzer on November 4, hinting at a major relaunch in December, rumors have been swirling that the revamped platform could include a lucrative airdrop for loyal users.
The news of OpenSea’s registration in the Cayman Islands, shared on December 14 by pseudonymous researcher Waleswoosh, has further ignited the firestorm of speculation. This development has sparked intense conversations within the NFT community, especially as OpenSea has long been a key player in the market. 
The idea of rewarding early users with an airdrop, similar to strategies seen with competitors like Blur and Magic Eden, has many hopeful for a major payout.
Since its launch, OpenSea has been under pressure from emerging competitors, most notably Blur, which has captured market share through a successful airdrop strategy. Blur’s dominance, particularly its season-based token rewards, has led to an explosion in trading volumes and user engagement. 
Reports even surfaced of users earning up to $11 million in tokens after Blur’s second-season rewards. Magic Eden also tried its hand at an airdrop with its ME token, though it faced challenges after an initial surge in price, with the token’s value dropping nearly 70% amid user complaints.
OpenSea, in a bid to reclaim market dominance, has taken its own steps to stay competitive, including the introduction of zero fees in February. But despite these efforts, Blur has continued to overshadow the NFT marketplace leader in trading volumes. As a result, there’s growing speculation that OpenSea may look to follow in Blur’s footsteps, issuing tokens as a way to both attract new users and reward loyal ones.
While the NFT community eagerly awaits official word on an OpenSea token, many users are hopeful that the platform will use the airdrop as a way to rebuild trust and loyalty, particularly after the boom in NFT sales during 2021 and 2022. However, concerns remain about whether the airdrop will appropriately account for the significant trading activity from those peak years.
