Washington State QB Suffers Lacerated Liver

Yesterday, Washington State suffered a loss at the hands of Utah 30-27 in overtime.

The University of Miami Self Imposes Bowl Ban

The University of Miami announced this afternoon that it will withhold its football team from bowl consideration following the regular season due to the NCAA inquiry.

Iowa State 37, Oklahoma State 31: BCS, Meet Chaos

  Earlier in the college football season, my colleague Allen Kenney and I were discussing the merits of an undefeated Oklahoma State on the Crystal Ball Run podcast. I don’t remember exactly what week it was, or exactly the context, but I do know this: We spent a solid five minutes trying to figure out […]

Marshall Not As Bad As 5-6 Record Implies

If you aren’t looking (and probably most of our readers are not), Marshall could actually represent the East Division in the Conference USA Championship Game. Now the 5-6 Thundering Herd still need some help and a win over East Carolina, and a very unlikely loss by Southern Miss against 2-9 Memphis to pull of the […]
