Five Burning Questions: The Mysterious Virginia Tech Hokies

Through four games this season, few teams have been more impressive, and equally mysterious as Virginia Tech has been. The Hokies are 4-0, but have yet to really play anyone. Well that changes this weekend, when they welcome the surprising Clemson Tigers to Lane Stadium. Clemson is also 4-0, but with a pair of wins […]

College Football’s October-Fest

It’s October and it’s time to get serious. That’s right, now is when the games get more intense and conference standing is on the line. Just ask the folks in the Big Ten how big the first weekend in October will be. We’ve all enjoyed the first month of the season, so what do we […]

October Should Be Full Of Surprises

September is college football’s month for a whole bunch of tune-ups and the occasionally compelling non-conference game. According to my calendar, however, Saturday marks the first day of October.

Les Miles To The NFL? It Just Might Happen

In the 24/7, Twitter-fueled, non-stop news world we live in, it’s hard to separate fact from fiction. Every rumor is reported as the stone-cold truth, every sentence out of a source’s mouth hits our Twitter feed faster than Trent Richardson hitting the five-hole against an overmatched SEC opponent. At this point, it really is impossible […]

Bloguin Heisman Poll Week Four

Week four of the College Football Season is in the books. Texas A&M to the SEC is officially official and Oklahoma State gave them a nice kick on the way out. The Florida Gators look like they are back and LSU never left. But you aren’t here to talk about the games, you are here […]

Matt Barkley Happy To Be Slapped On Wrist Rather Than Face Wrath Of Burfict

USC quarterback Matt Barkley had some choice words to describe Arizona State linebacker Vontaze Burfict. “He’s a dirty player,” Barkley said last week heading in to the game against Arizona State.
