I stepped foot inside the newly renovated Kyle Field unsure of what I would see. I had never before stepped foot on the Texas A&M campus in College Station, Texas, but I was about to get a behind-the-scenes tour of the longtime football home of the Aggies just days before opening its doors to the […]

Often times we see college football programs move away from their history and tradition when it comes time to throw together an alternate uniform. Sometimes we get some solid efforts with retro-inspired uniforms, but it seems they are few and far between. So when word broke about the uniform Hawaii plans to wear this weekend […]

Ordinarily in this weekly segment our goal will be to highlight one particular uniform to be worn during the college football season that specific week. However, this week is going to be a little different. There are far too many uniforms to discuss on the opening weekend, so I have chosen three uniforms to point […]

The MAC Championship Game, first played in 1997, has never had the same match-up three years in a row. I don’t have a copy of the Gray’s Sports Almanac to say whether or not the coaches in the MAC are right or wrong, but the coaches are calling for a third straight meeting between Bowling Green […]

Toledo will be without one of the top running backs in the MAC, and perhaps the nation, when the Rockets head to Arkansas in Week 2. Kareem Hunt has been suspended for the first two games of the 2015 season for a violation of team policy. Also suspended for the first two games is defensive […]

UCLA Bruins 2014 Record: 10-3 (won Alamo Bowl vs. Kansas State) 1 Burning Question: Is Josh Rosen ready to step right in to replace Brett Hundley? During his three seasons as starting quarterback for the Bruins, Brett Hundley was among the most entertaining players the Pac-12 had to offer. Now that Hundley is off to the […]

Penn State Nittany Lions 2014 Record: 7-6 overall, Big Ten (won Pinstripe Bowl vs. Boston College) 1 Burning Question: Is the offensive line going to be better? It can’t get worse, right? Penn State’s offensive line has always been one of the weaker spots on the roster in recent years, and last season was no […]

Utah State Aggies 2014 Record: 10-4 (won bowl game) 1 Burning Question: Will Chuckie Keeton manage to stay healthy in 2015? The return of quarterback Chuckie Keeton last season may have been a tad rushed, a thought that is supported by the shutdown of the key offensive player after appearing in just three games and […]

Miami Hurricanes 2014 Record: 6-7 (lost bowl game) 1 Burning Question: Is this the year Miami finally plays in the ACC Championship Game? When Miami joined the ACC in 2004 along with Big East partner Virginia Tech, it was a move that was thought to bring some balance to the ACC’s football membership, and help […]

Perhaps you have seen Penn State’s All-Big Ten defensive lineman Anthony Zettel tackle a tree by now. If not, go ahead and check it out. Zettel’s tree-tackle made the rounds through the blogopshere and Twitterverse, and former Nittany Lion Anthony Adams was inspired to give it a try himself. A video posted by Anthony Adams […]

TCU will have new uniforms in 2015. That’s not so strange, because so many programs seem to update their look on an annual basis. This year, however, TCU is going overboard on the frog skin uniforms. Check them out. TCU had a perfectly fine look already, and this seems to take a step back. But hey, […]

Earlier this offseason we learned Coastal Carolina, a rising FCS power, was installing a brand new artificial turf in their football stadium. Rather than go with a standard green field, Coastal Carolina has taken a page from the Boise State playbook and gone with a non-traditional field color; teal. The work got underway last week and […]

For Tulane, that means getting ready to roll out their new alternate black jersey and helmet for 2015. Tulane has worn black jerseys before, but the matte […]

Oregon State opens up spring practices today, and they will do so with a new helmet design. Well, actually, it is an old helmet design that is making a return. Oregon State has worn a similar helmet design in the past. In the 1970s they wore this design on an orange helmet and in the […]

We all have a morning routine. Mine involves eating a bowl of cereal while watching the local news as my wife gets ready to start her day. As I am eating my breakfast, I am checking my email and scanning the headlines coming across in my Feedly so I can see what some of the […]
