0 comments by on 11/22/2014

One thing that people always say immediately after the College Football Playoff standings come out is that there’s still a lot of football left to be played and that anything can happen over the final weeks of the season.

0 comments by

The USC Trojans won the 2004 national championship (yeah, I know they got stripped of the title but they still won the game) and played in the 2006 Rose Bowl for the 2005 season’s BCS national championship. That clash with Texas was one of the best games I’ve ever seen. In 2006, the Trojans appeared […]

0 comments by Bart Doan and Matt Zemek

In the SEC West, a bunch of teams are beating up on each other. In the Pac-12 South, a bunch of teams are beating up on each other. Is it all the same? Is it completely different?

0 comments by Allen Kenney on 11/19/2014

Back in 2001, Bob Stoops was the hot name on football’s coaching carousel.
