Sports Buzz is similar to ESPN's Around The Horn, except that instead of paid sportswriters, four volunteer members of the FM 88 Sports team fight for a full hour to determine who makes the best argument. They argue over a wide variety of topics covering college and professional worlds, as well as the occasional debate about Marshall athletics. The winner gets to wear the proverbial #1 sports expert crown for one week, something all contestants are hungry to attain.


Coming soon!
