It’s an inconvenient part about these games people play: The score is tallied. No matter what outside events might shape the final score, those numbers acquire a permanence which unavoidably affects the way events are remembered… and how history is written. After the 2013 college football regular season, the Baylor Bears — as champions of […]

Baylor, which was torn to shreds by UCF in the 2014 Fiesta Bowl, badly needs to beat Michigan State in the Cotton Bowl — not only to bolster the Big 12 in comparison with the Big Ten, but to avoid an 0-for-2 albatross in premium postseason contests.

0 comments by

It is a tricky time of the year to be a college basketball fan. The sport seems so far away, yet so incredibly close that you can hear the student section roaring when Willie McDunkaroo scores the game-winning bucket against a rival. All this makes the general college basketball fan rather sad and, unfortunately, a […]

Clemson Tigers 2014 Record: 10-3 overall, 6-2 ACC (won bowl game) 1 Burning Question: Will Deshaun Watson stay healthy for more than a few minutes?

Auburn: Volatile, Vexing, Victorious

0 comments by on 8/19/2015

The Auburn Tigers unquestionably loathe the fact that across the way in Tuscaloosa, Nick Saban has won at least 10 games each season (if you include bowl games) since 2008. Alabama — in terms of landing in a January or (these days) New Year’s Six bowl — has become one of the surest bets in […]

Auburn Tigers 2014 Record: 8-5 overall, 4-4 SEC (lost bowl game) 1 Burning Question: Will the Tiger Defense Carry the Team to the SEC title?

This dynamic is not limited to the Southeastern Conference: Coaches who played at one school wind up coaching for a rival school.
