No. 9 Ohio State at Penn State Saturday, 5:30 p.m. ESPN Line: PK While it’s easy to crack (bad) jokes and call Saturday’s showdown between Ohio State and Penn State the “The Ineligi-Bowl” the truth is that while this game might not have postseason implications, it is still a matchup between the two best teams […]

0 comments by Aaron Torres
It’s been said that in college football scheduling is a fine craft. Programs usually spend years hashing out the every little detail of the 12 games on their fall schedules, often making commitments (and at times breaking them) years in advance. Heck, wasn’t it just yesterday that college football fans got their panties in a […]

Cincinnati at No. 16 Louisville Friday, 8:00 p.m. ESPN Line: Louisville -3.5 Had things turned out a bit differently, Friday night’s matchup been Cincinnati and Louisville could’ve been for all the Tostitos.

Has the Longhorn Network become a disadvantage for Texas?
0 comments by Aaron Torres
Ask folks around the Nebraska, Texas A&M and Missouri football programs, and (off the record) they’ll be glad to tell you that a big reason why each left the Big XII in recent years was because of the emergence of the Longhorn Network. The TV station which debuted in August 2011 gives Texas an absurd […]

Oregon, Florida and Kansas State bolstered their arguments, while Notre Dame (and among the ineligibles, Ohio State) survived. Alabama remains on another planet. Super Six 1. Alabama (7-0) The Tide rolled over the Vols, with Peyton Manning in attendance, in their annual TSIO skirmish. One small hope for opponents: Bama has allowed double-digit points in […]

Kansas State 55, WVU 14: Purple Reign in Morgantown
0 comments by Tom Perry on 10/21/2012
Despite the obvious and glaring weakness on defense, I bought into West Virginia. The offense looked unstoppable and somehow it looked like the Mountaineers would just outscore everyone. Oh how we were all fooled. WVU fans are used to disappointment, but no one expected such a collapse just two weeks after beating Texas in Austin. […]

LSU 24, Texas A&M 19: Tigers school Aggies on dangers of turnovers
LSU taught Texas A&M a valuable lesson Saturday. It’s not just that famed speed that kills in the SEC. Turnovers can be deadly, too.
