Students at the University at Albany attempted to answer one of the most polarizing questions a New Yorker can be asked.

We searched "Upstate New York" on Wikipedia so you don't have to, and this is how the online encyclopedia defines the region. Do you agree?

In a video posted on social media, students at the University at Albany answered one of the most polarizing questions a New Yorker can possibly be asked.

Applying to college can be costly for any student. Many, high school seniors have no idea what they really want to do or where they want to spend the next four years of their lives.

Most players, coaches and fans have dreamed of winning a Super Bowl. Only a few ever get to live that dream. Fewer win it more than once. (Tom Brady is a freak of nature, so we really can't include him.) Former New York Giants' head coach Tom Coughlin is one of those few.

The University at Albany athletic department announced on Wednesday that head coach Greg Gattuso was not on the team flight to Honolulu, Hawaii on Tuesday due to illness. Gattuso was expected to join the team on Wednesday but was unable.

Reports came out Tuesday, that Governor Hochul plans to have up to 1500 migrants transported to various SUNY campuses throughout New York State. The plan is to house the migrants in the unoccupied dorms during the summer months. Then what?

The NCAA tournament doesn't have to be in town for a big-time college basketball atmosphere to pop-up in Albany. Eighteen times since 2001, the Siena Saints and the UAlbany Great Danes have matched up in men's basketball, resulting in some of the area's largest crowds of the season. So, why not find the best times and dates to encourage that excitement?

The names on the front of the jerseys will be the same but almost everything about this year's Albany Cup between Siena and UAlbany in men's basketball will be different. Since 2001, the two institutions of higher learning, separated by about 5 miles, battled 17 straight years in men's hoops. 16 times the game has been played in downtown Albany, in what is now the MVP Arena, Siena's home court during the season. In 2016, the game was played the only time at the SEFCU Arena, on the campus of UAlbany.

104.5 'The Team' ESPN Radio, UAlbany Athletics and City Line Bar & Grill announced year two of 'Drive the Lane' with UAlbany Hoops' is set to take off. The weekly radio hour features UAlbany head basketball coaches Dwayne Killings and Colleen Mullen, along with select student-athletes. The show is hosted by 104.5 ESPN Radio's Charlie Voelker and Dan Bahl. 'Drive the Lane' will be broadcast live on Mondays from City Line Bar & Grill on Western Ave across the street from UAlbany's campus.

Well, for many Mets fans Sunday night was not an evening to remember. New York lost in their Game 3 elimination match-up with the San Diego Padres. However, for one University at Albany alum, it was probably another cool experience on an incredibly impressive resume. What makes this Great Dane so special that she was throwing out a first pitch prior to the biggest Mets game of the year, in front of a national TV audience?

Most of the time, when reporting these stories, we don't really know the person we are writing about. This time I do. Former 16-year NFL veteran and UAlbany assistant football coach, Jim Sweeney unexpectedly passed away on Saturday. The news rocked the New York Jets organization, as well as Sweeney's friends and family at the University at Albany.
