Immature on-field culture at Florida signals time for change

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect It was January of 2013, and you could see it then. Louisville and Florida were playing in the Sugar Bowl, and Louisville was going to win going away.

Furniture burnin’ time in Morgantown as WVU trips up Baylor

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect Find yourself a jar of apple pie shine, a book of matches, and your nearest couch. Light it on fire. Holler. Rinse. Repeat.

Playoff Possibilities: What’s Likely And What’s Not

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect At this point in the season, we know things, more things than we knew a few months ago. Call it a college football mid term exam, where stumbling in smelling of Old Crow and Newports isn’t really an option. Mississippi State is really good. Michigan is really not. Dana […]

For Jameis Winston, guilty until proven innocent a weekly reality

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect This is an article about Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston (watches clicks go up). It is not skewering him (watches clicks go down).

5 Midseason things we thought we knew … but didn’t

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect We’re sadly halfway through the season for most teams at this point, and for some, a week past it. We were all wrong about a lot.

Poll Dancing: Playoff edition No. 1

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect Well, we’re halfway through the season for the most part, which is a harrowing thought.

Mississippi State Outruns Auburn: The Bulldogs Are Good And They Know It

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Follow TSS @TheStudentSect For a year and a half, Auburn has been the cute brunette in a spaghetti strap top and denim skirt in the horror movies that you know from scene one is somehow going to make it, then spends the next 90 minutes being captured, left for dead, hit by […]

Todd Gurley surely knew better. Now Georgia pays.

Pardon me if it feels like we’ve been here before. Ridiculously talented Heisman Trophy candidate suddenly is embroiled in an NCAA investigation for allegedly signing memorabilia for loot and is forced to miss some time playing football. Surely, Todd Gurley knew better. Gurley, the all-world running back from Georgia, will likely miss the Bulldogs’ tilt […]

What new feat will John Beilein achieve this season at Michigan?

Michigan misspells basketball promotion, which … is ill-timed

Michigan is having trouble getting anything done these days. A text went out to certain Michigan fans regarding ticket packages, urging them to use a promotional code for tickets. The code? That of their highly successful basketball coach. Which … one would think they could spell right the first time around. To their credit, a […]

Pac-12 chaos is a strength of the conference, not something else

On Twitter @TheCoachBart A lot of things make humanity great. A lot of things make it suck. But few things make it as great as independent thought. Which is why human people can get in a room and look at or read the same thing and come away with a million different impressions. There are […]

Poll Dancing, Week 6

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Well hello there, college football. Like your buddy that’s always fashionably late, almost to the point of annoyance, but always brings a few growlers to the party … the Saturday excitement level has been roughly “drywall repair” over the first five weeks, but that all changed this weekend.
