By losing 44-29 to Northwestern Indiana just set the record for most losses ever by a FBS team, losing their 633rd game all time. They did it in record setting fashion as well, and by record setting I mean record setting for […]

No. 12 Texas at Oklahoma State Saturday, 7:50pm Eastern, Fox Line: Texas -3 Alright folks, time to lace 'em up real tight, it's conference football season.

There aren't too many AD's in major college athletics that are 75 years old, then again not too many AD's in this country have been National Championship football coaches, members of congress, and been around their universities for most of the last 40 years or so.

No. 15 Kansas State at No. 6 Oklahoma Saturday, 7:30pm Eastern, FOX Line: Oklahoma -14 While the rest of the college football world is mainly stuck playing meaningless non-conference games against the blind sisters of the poor we can thank the scheduling gods of the Big 12 for giving us a potentially Big 12 championship […]

It's time for us to step into the CBR Courtroom, don't worry it's not scary and full of paintings of Lady Justice, nor should you be afraid of it unless your name is Craig James and then you best not step foot in it – that's just playing with fire mister! Last week we had […]

Friday night was a painful loss for Utah in more ways than one apparently, as starting QB Jordan Wynn announced his retirement from football today. This comes on the heels of the 27-20 OT loss to rival Utah State and yet another injury to one of his shoulders. Wynn, a junior, who was named the […]

Nebraska coaches and players said it all week, they knew this trip wasn't going to be easy. Not because of the time difference or the venue of the game, but because they were facing a very good Bruins squad under first year head coach Jim Mora. They found out just how good as UCLA (2-0) knocked […]

It wasn't always pretty, but Oregon State found a way to win in their 2012 debut, defeating 13th ranked Wisconsin 10-7 at Reser Stadium. This was a game of opportunities, those missed and those taken advantage of, and the Beavers took advantage of their opportunity first and that was the difference in the victory. Wisconsin […]
