The Texas Longhorns will continue to play on Thanksgiving, according to Big 12 commissioner Chuck Neinas, but the conference is working with television partners to come up with an opponent. So once again, the conference is working around Texas? We won’t get started with that conversation right now. The morning after TCU’s addition to the […]
It’s the ultimate sign of disrespect in modern American society: dropping a deuce on something. When people want to get their point across, they start slinging feces. With Texas A&M leaving the Big 12 in a huff this fall, it should surprise no one that some irritated in-state rivals would decide to “dump” such a […]

It appears as though college football’s coaching carousel started a little early this season. At least according to reports on Monday night that Mike Stoops has been fired as the head coach at Arizona. The news was first reported by the Tucson Citizen: Arizona Athletic Director Greg Byrne announced this evening that he has fired […]

When people talk about football dynasties, they are usually talking about teams like Alabama, Nebraska, and Florida. However none of those teams when in their heyday come close to even holding a candle to what two small school colleges in Ohio and Wisconsin have done. Over the last seven seasons the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater has […]
Kansas State head coach Bill Snyder doesn’t strike me as the kind of guy you’d want to grab a beer with. He’s more like the mean grandfather who rags on your parents for not spanking you enough as a kid. He’s incredibly unlikeable. He’s also reminding us all this season that he is without a […]

Michigan has not had to rely on its defense. It has not tried to. Not with Denard Robinson putting up video-game type numbers and his ability seemingly to score at will. The defense, if anything, was holding the Wolverines back and keeping them from taking advantage of Robinson’s offensive prowess. To get to 6-0 and […]
The big storyline heading into the 2011 Red River Shootout was Texas’ “new” taking on Oklahoma’s “old.” After suffering through a debac-tacluar 2010 season that saw the Longhorns go from a spot in the national championship game the year before to an extended Christmas, head coach Mack Brown overhauled his entire coaching staff. Aside from […]

One week after playing the worst game of his career, No. 21 Virginia Tech’s Logan Thomas might have just played his best. The Hokies (5-1) needed every bit of Thomas’ abilities on Saturday as it was his 19-yard touchdown run with less than a minute to play that finally gave Tech a 38-35 victory over […]

For some teams it only takes a few weeks to realize every goal they set in the offseason won’t be realized. But does that mean they should call it a season? Hell no. We all know only one team is going to win it all, so a few programs who had these type of aspirations […]

Let’s play a game. I am thinking of a team that is eighth in the nation in total offense, 10th in the nation in total defense, third in scoring offense and tied for second in scoring defense. If you were to rank this team, where would you put it? Remember this is a team with […]
Having kicked Rich Rodriguez to the curb last winter, the Michigan Wolverines went back to the “Michigan man” well and fished out Brady Hoke. The Maize and Blue have rolled out to a fast 5-0 start in Hoke’s first year behind talented quarterback Denard Robinson and look like legitimate contenders to win whichever Big Ten division they’re in. Who […]

This is me last week: A stunning 0-5. Even the Arkansas State/Temple parlay went down. Overall record: 9-13-1… how embarrassing. Big thanks to Va Tech, and Nebraska to laying absolute eggs. I’m speechless. But don’t worry, I didn’t only lose all those games. You gotta see this other bet I lost… With like six minutes […]
