The GIST: The NWSL semis are here, with the top four teams in the league battling it out for a spot in the upcoming title match. Ready your vocal chords — the games are about to begin.

No. 3 seed NJ/NY Gotham FC vs. No. 2 seed Washington Spirit — Tomorrow at 12 p.m. ET: These two East Coast powerhouses are facing off at rowdy (and sold-out) Audi Field in D.C. tomorrow. Beyond their home-field advantage, the Spirit enter this game with Trinity Rodman–levels of confidence, having handed Gotham two of their four regular-season losses.

• But the defending champ Bats won’t go down without a fight, and if there’s one thing they can count on, it’s their grit — Gotham netted three stoppage-time winners this year, including last week’s quarter-final (QF) zinger from midfielder Rose Lavelle.

No. 4 seed Kansas City Current vs. No. 1 seed Orlando Pride — Sunday at 3 p.m. ET: Neither the Current nor the Pride have ever made the NWSL Championship, adding an extra layer of pressure to this already-fiery match. KC is riding a 10-game unbeaten streak, but injured Golden Boot winner Temwa Chawinga may be limited, adding a wrinkle to their game plan.

• Meanwhile, the Pride boast a healthy and dynamic offensive duo in strikers Marta and Barbra Banda, whose tandem teamwork (and sweet friendship) has dazzled fans all season long. Regardless of the winner, expect happy and sad tears after Sunday’s final whistle.

⛳ LPGA: The Annika — Today through Sunday — Golf Channel

• There’s a two-way tie at the top of the leaderboard in the penultimate LPGA event of the year, but world No. 1 Nelly Korda trails by only two strokes in her first competition since injuring her neck. No viral shanks here.

🏀 NBA Cup: LA Lakers vs. San Antonio Spurs — Tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET — TSN

• It’s a tale as old as time: a new dog in the Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama — who dropped a career-high 50 points on Wednesday — against old tricks, aka Laker LeBron James, the oldest player ever to record three straight triple-doubles.

🎓🏈 CFB: No. 6 Tennessee vs. No. 11 Georgia — Tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. ET — ABC

• With only one blemish on their record, the surging Vols head into this highly anticipated conference tilt with a straight shot at the SEC Championship — but first, they’ll have to top a two-loss Dawgs squad desperate to keep their 12-team playoff hopes alive.

🏈 NFL: Baltimore Ravens vs. Pittsburgh Steelers — Sunday at 1 p.m. ET — CBS

• Not only is the AFC North’s top spot on the line in this pivotal divisional matchup, but the Ravens’ superman, quarterback (QB) Lamar Jackson, will have to conquer his kryptonite: a Steelers squad the reigning MVP’s beaten only once over his illustrious career.

Extra point or go for two? NFL coaches are split, and it’s giving fans plenty to discuss.
