Where will Mike Gundy coach in 2015? The outcome of the 2014 Bedlam game could very well provide the answer.

Now that Braxton Miller is out for the entire 2014 campaign with an injured shoulder, many in the media have dismissed Ohio State as a national championship contender. In their minds, the Buckeyes won’t overcome the loss of their star player. I disagree. After all, college football history is full of teams that lost a […]

Arizona State offensive tackle Chip Sarafin announced publicly today that he’s gay in an article published in Issu.com’s Compete magazine. Per
Rich Rodriguez now faces the central task of making sure his players don’t lose faith after a classic Arizona stomach-punch loss against USC. The one original Pac-10 member without a single Rose Bowl appearance has to stay the course. If it does, the Pac-12 South is still there for the taking. The winner of this division will probably have at least two conference losses by season’s end. Arizona can overcome just about any scoreboard obstacle, but the Wildcats’ offense needs to be able to score more than 13 points through three quarters at home. The Wildcats were stuck on 13 after 45 minutes in home games against California and USC. The Wildcats overcame the Golden Bears. They weren’t able to make one last kick against USC. Start-to-finish consistency on offense is what Rich Rod has to cultivate over the next month and a half.
