Last year’s Patriot League title game was bereft of the 1 and 2 seeds in the league for the first time ever, as Lafayette took down American to make its first NCAA tournament since 2000. It will likely be a short lived stay at the top for the Leopards, who lose their two best players […]

College football is upon us. Well, it actually entered our television sets on Thursday night, and there are a few moments between the bevy of games that will appear on Saturday, but semantics are for losers. There is a lot going on in the world of college football. Thankfully, less of it has to deal […]

It’s not the rarest of situations. It’s not mathematically hard to figure out on an immediate level. You’ve seen plenty of football games in which a team, trailing by 11 points inside the final five minutes of regulation, kicks a field goal to trim its deficit to eight points. Thursday night, Miami coach Al Golden […]

This probably feels like a talk-radio topic, yet it does seem worth discussing. While no one can say anything just yet in a factual sense, waiting to use hindsight on the matter of “football programs in decline” is something Americans very much enjoy. Will they be able to use that hindsight in the coming weeks? We’ll […]

Hype is a curious creature. Sportswriters are often guilty of applying it to games which don’t merit it. Pundits and bloggers have been known to create a narrative which so fully defines the buildup to kickoff that the postgame conversation is inevitably reshaped as a result. When that reshaping seems to ignore the facts on […]

In what other walks of life do we tell other people what they should or shouldn’t do as far as their livelihood is concerned? The answer, outside politics and sports, happen to be no other people. Yet, because opinions, everyone — and their respective mothers — wants to chime in on everything Leonard Fournette. So, […]

Week five brings us the first blockbuster slate of the season. It’s a weekend so big that two of the top-5 teams in the AP Poll are playing at noon, all while a matchup of two top-25 teams also kicks off in the noon window. It’s big. It’s bold. It can’t possibly get worse for […]

Last week, the benefits of staggered start times were made very apparent, as the TCU-Texas Tech thriller — starting at 4:45 Eastern time — had its own stage when it ended. Only California-Washington also ended near the time Frogs-Red Raiders concluded. Yes, you missed the beginning of the 7:30 and 8:05 p.m. Eastern kicks, but […]
