Five things to watch this spring in the SEC

0 comments by Kevin Causey on 3/3/2017

The hopes and dreams of the college football world have been renewed. We are just days away from spring football practice kicking off for the majority of college football. This means all win-loss records have been re-set. Everybody is now undefeated. During the Nick Saban era, the SEC has been about Alabama and then everybody […]

It has now been a week since the bowl games have ended, which means it is time for college football fans everywhere (except in Clemson, South Carolina) to start to put the season to bed and finish recapping it. While everyone looks back at the season, I prefer to look back at how each team […]

Three years in, the CFB Playoffs have underwhelmed

0 comments by Bart D on 1/3/2017

Maybe the timing on this couldn’t possibly be worse seeing as we just saw arguably the most stirring Rose Bowl any of us have ever seen betwixt Penn State and Southern California, or maybe that’s a small point of the overall point. But three years and six games in, the CFB Playoff continues to be […]

Overall, quarterback Sam Darnold set a Rose Bowl record with […]

Alabama throttles Washington, moves one step closer to another national championship

0 comments by Terry P. Johnson on 12/31/2016

The Alabama Crimson Tide are off to the CFP National Championship Game after destroying the Washington Huskies 24-7 in Saturday’s Peach Bowl. It’s hard not to be thoroughly impressed with the way Nick Saban’s team played in this contest. Sure, Washington jumped out to an early 7-0 lead, but Alabama completely dominated the game from […]

Punchless Washington will see better days ahead after CFB Playoff loss

0 comments by Bart D

The unofficial ranking of things that were terrible to start off the 2016 CFB Playoff are as follows: 1. The new Dos Equis guy, who is so terrible he actually makes the beer taste worse by proxy; 2. Washington Huskies offense. The bad news is, Washington’s season is over after gaining a miserable 194 total […]

Every Game Matters: How One Play Can Change the Entire Season

0 comments by Yesh Ginsburg on 12/30/2016

The motto of the BCS used to be “every game matters.” The meaning was plain and clear, whether or not you agreed with its assessment. The point was that if a team wasn’t perfect, its chances of reaching the National Championship Game were now in the hands of the other teams that were still perfect. […]

Utah Utes defeat Indiana to cap off another solid season

0 comments by Terry P. Johnson on 12/29/2016

The Utah Utes defeated Indiana 26-24 in the Foster Farms Bowl to cap off another solid season. That’s not to suggest that the Utes were perfect. They clearly weren’t. Utah was its own worst enemy in this contest, turning the ball over four times, including a fumble on the opening kickoff that allowed Indiana to […]

UConn made the wrong decision by firing Bob Diaco

0 comments by Terry P. Johnson on 12/27/2016

UConn made the wrong decision by firing Bob Diaco. The school should have stuck with him for at least another season before making any moves. That’s not to say that the 2016 campaign wasn’t a huge disappointment. It certainly was. After all, the Huskies returned 15 starters from last season’s squad, which was the first […]

Troy Trojans defeat Ohio to close out a fine season

0 comments by Terry P. Johnson on 12/24/2016

The Troy Trojans defeated Ohio 28-23 in the Dollar General Bowl to close out the school’s best season as an FBS member. Make no mistake about it: this was a fantastic season for Neal Brown’s club. After finishing 4-8 last year, the Trojans won 10 games for the first time since moving up to the […]

Idaho waxes Colorado State to win Famous Idaho Potato Bowl

0 comments by Eli Hershkovich on 12/23/2016

Scoring 60-plus points over a span of three quarters would appear highly unlikely, right? Well, don’t tell the Idaho Vandals (9-4). With 14:35 left in the second quarter of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, Paul Petrino’s unit collected a mere 34 yards on offense against Colorado State (7-6), along with a trio of three-and-outs to […]

BYU Cougars hold off Wyoming rally to win Poinsettia Bowl

0 comments by Terry P. Johnson on 12/22/2016

The BYU Cougars held off a late Wyoming rally to win the Poinsettia Bowl 24-21. Make no mistake about it: this was a huge victory for BYU. After all, Wyoming was arguably the most pleasant surprise in college football in 2016, winning eight games this season after posting a 2-10 mark last year. Given that […]
