Colorado will take their ranked football team on the road this weekend, surging up the polls, against unranked Southern California, looking for a big win in the Clay Helton era to give them some momentum. Just like we all thought would happen, right? To be honest, this was never not going to happen, thanks to […]

The problem with this column (other than the writer) is that as the season goes on and conference teams only play one another, it becomes harder for someone to actually shift in the rankings other than at the bottom. It’s good cannon fodder for when bowl season starts to see who the regular season deemed […]

The Arkansas State Red Wolves overcame five turnovers to defeat the Georgia Southern Eagles 27-26. With the victory, ASU proved that it is still the team to beat in the Sun Belt this season.

If you were to ask your kid to go ahead the first time he has his driver’s permit to go ahead and drive home in Atlanta rush hour traffic, that’d be giving a freshman a first start against a top 5 football team as your season swirls out of control. Luckily (for Oregon), they’ve got […]

Go back to June and read in ESPN 30 for 30 voice: “What if I told you unranked Southern Cal would be trying to salvage it’s season, starting with a win over surging Colorado? What if I told you floundering Oregon would be dying for a win at home over Washington? That Washington State looks […]

Instead of talking about Washington, Michigan, or Clemson this — this week’s big winners — to start, I’m going to lead with some of this week’s biggest losers. The Stanford Cardinal, in a span of just three quarters, went from being a solid Playoff prospect to being on the outside looking in. How did such […]

Look, finding stories about Mark Richt impacting someone’s life positively are as easy to find as working porch lights on Halloween. Richt is a great football coach, but it doesn’t nearly stop there. If you’re looking for a coach where his job duties don’t end when the office lights go off, he’s a pretty good […]

If the first weekend of the college football season had been dubbed the “best weekend ever” and the following weekend when everybody wanted to play nobody was the “best weekend ever … to go do yard work on a Saturday,” then this upcoming slate of games may as well be “Are You For Real” Saturday. When […]

The Big 12 saw a week of exciting comebacks, big blowouts, and everything in between. The final Big 12 schools finished non-conference play last week, so from here on out, it’s all Big 12 games all season long. The conference is still behind the 8-ball for a Playoff spot, but there is plenty of exciting […]

Once again, the Tennessee Volunteers rallied to win in the fourth quarter. This time, they seized control over the SEC East, and proved that they’re a contender to win the national championship. Let’s be honest: it looked like the Vols were going to lose this contest. After all, Georgia had the ball up three points […]

Only you can prevent forest fires, so says Smokey the Bear. Step 1: don’t let 2016 Washington football onto the grounds. The Huskies smoked the Stanford Cardinal to the tune of 44-6 Friday night, announcing the fact that they’re damn well for real, and the Pac-12 as well as the nation had better heed notice. The […]
