Quakes score thrilling late equalizer on College Night

Photo by Jovanni Arroyo-Camberos The San Jose Earthquakes(2-2-2) are no stranger to late goals and in this game they needed some more of that magic as they drew 1-1 against FC Dallas (3-0-2) on Friday night. The Quakes celebrated a late equalizer in front of a crowd comprised of fans and students from colleges around the Bay Area for College Night. “I thought we played some good stuff [in the] first 30-35 minutes” Said San Jose Earthquakes head coach Dominic Kinnear. “I thought we looked pretty sharp moving the ball well, second half we came out and I thought we looked a little lackadaisical and they were getting chances because of that.”   The Earthquakes began the game with most of the possession.

Attention turns to Oakland Raiders’ 2017 season home and away opponents.

With the light at the end of the tunnel coming down hard on what was much of a dream season for the Oakland Raiders, the team must now regroup, recover and prepare for next season. The NFL announced the Raiders’ home and away opponents for the 2017 season on New Year's day. And if the Oakland Raiders thought this was a dream season for them, they will need to pray for a miracle if they want to replicate this season's heroics starting in the fall. The NFL as a whole has a lot to look forward to, the Raiders on the other hand are matched up against not one, not two, but five teams that made the playoffs this year. The dates of each game for the 2017 season will be determined in April. A lot  can be speculated after the Raiders capped off the season with 12 wins and a playoff appearance, something the organization as a whole has not been able to do since 2000. Home Opponents: Denver Broncos, San Diego Chargers, Kansas City Chiefs, New England Patriots, Dallas ...
