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. So this is the college football column version of your girlfriend or wife, or for any potential female reader, boyfriend or husband I […]

The 2014 Bloguin Heisman Poll, week seven

Last week was the Season Premiere of the Bloguin Heisman Poll, and Todd Gurley jumped out to the lead. Then, the news broke that Gurley would be suspended indefinitely. The star running back missed Georgia’s game this past weekend against Missouri. The Heisman leader getting suspended is unprecedented since I’ve been hosting this poll. How would […]

Urban Meyer’s proven ability to adjust to injuries at the quarterback position dates back to his tenure at Utah. If anyone can get Ohio State’s offense ready for a big game with a short turnaround time and lots of question marks in the equation, it’s Meyer.

Conference Questions: The Buckeye-Spartan Showdown, ACC Coastal Chaos, And Pac-12 South Parity

If it’s the middle of the season (seven full weeks down, seven full weeks to go plus Championship Saturday and Army-Navy Saturday), conference races are beginning to acquire some real texture.

Sad fan index, week seven

One of the best things about college football is the passion fans have for their team, their university, and their players. Of course, being so passionate about something also means that from time to time you get your heart broken. On gameday, Twitter is an amazing way to follow the ups and downs of college […]

Todd Gurley and Carrying the NCAA’s Water

In the wake of Todd Gurley’s suspension last week for allegedly signing autographs for cash, members of SB Nation’s editorial team revealed that they passed on the story when approached multiple times by a bottom-feeding memorabilia dealer offering to dime out Georgia’s star running back. In doing so, writers Spencer Hall and Steven Godfrey gave […]

Dan Mullen has given new life to his career, putting together what is by far his best season as a head coach. Yet, a loss to Georgia Tech would leave a lot of national commentators saying that MSU was more a mirage than the picture of flesh and substance.

Four highly questionable coaching decisions from Week 7

It is tough being a college football coach. What separates the good coaches from the great coaches are the decisions they make in the heat of the moment. The great coaches do not panic and are thinking about the impact a call on one play could have on a play six or nine plays in […]

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. College football comes and goes pretty quickly if you’re watching, let alone for the guys playing. As brutal as it is to think, we’re just a few months away from prognosticating about if the […]

Marshall and quarterback Rakeem Cato would have wanted to be in a New Year’s Six bowl, but playing MAC champion Northern Illinois gives the Thundering Herd a test worthy of a postseason game.

The Gang Of Five Isn’t Much Of A Gang — College Football Has To Do Something About It

In much the same way that college football should easily be able to amend the rule in which the clock can re-start in the final minutes of regulation even after a penalty committed by the offense (hello, Alabama-Arkansas game), the sport should also be able to tweak one aspect of its postseason for the 2015 […]
