Firing Brian VanGorder after four games makes absolutely no sense

0 comments by

Brian Kelly’s decision to fire Brian VanGorder four games into the season makes absolutely no sense. That’s not to say that the defense has been perfect this season. It hasn’t been. After four games, Notre Dame ranks 126th nationally in sacks, 108th in tackles for a loss, 103rd in total defense, and 96th in rushing […]

Texas A&M Aggies defeat Arkansas, prove they’re a top 10 team

0 comments by on 9/25/2016

With their victory over Arkansas on Saturday night, the Texas A&M Aggies proved that they’re a top 10 team. That’s not to say that the Aggies were perfect. They weren’t. The passing game got off to a slow start, completing just four of 11 attempts in the first half. The defense also struggled for most […]

“Hey, Big 12! We’re really good!” — The message BYU wants to send in its bowl game, even though the Big 12 won’t expand next year or the year after that. BYU is trying to plant seeds that will sprout several years down the line.

Watch: Taysom Hill hurdles defender for first down

0 comments by

Although some in the media have suggested there’s a quarterback controversy at BYU, Taysom Hill has the job because of his uncanny ability to make plays. Just look at what he did here. Facing a third and 11, he pulled the ball down and ran for a first down. At the end of the run, […]

Ole Miss Rebels Throttle Georgia; Remain in NY6 Bowl Race

0 comments by

After a soul-crushing loss against Alabama last weekend, you had to wonder what you’d see from Ole Miss against Georgia. Would the Rebels listen to a lot of the media – which wants to repeat ad nauseam that the team blew two 20-point leads this year – or would it play like a team that […]

Clemson Tigers defense dominates; defeats Georgia Tech

0 comments by on 9/23/2016

The Clemson Tigers’ defense dominated on Thursday night, as the team rolled to a 26-7 victory over Georgia Tech. That’s not to say that the offense didn’t turn in a solid performance as well. After struggling at times early in the season, the offense moved the ball well in the first half, racking up 347 […]

Clay Helton makes the right move by starting Sam Darnold

0 comments by on 9/22/2016

Clay Helton is making the right move by starting Sam Darnold at quarterback this weekend. That’s not to say that Max Browne deserves the blame for the Trojans’ 1-2 record. Sure, he struggled against Alabama, but so do most quarterbacks not named Chad Kelly, Johnny Manziel, or Cardale Jones. Yet, Browne rebounded from that rough […]

Thanks to an action-packed weekend, this week’s poll will look much different than it did a week ago. Please forgive us that it’s running a day later than usual, but Terry was sick and didn’t cast his ballot until Tuesday morning.
