Look at this play by Aaron Burbridge. If EA Sports still put out an NCAA Football game I don’t think you could even make a play as amazing as this….. One spin move is great. Two spin moves is greater.

Things just got really interesting in the race for the next College Football Playoff. Left for dead last week after getting blitzed in a driving and windy rainstorm by Michigan State, Ohio State met a very uncertain situation against Michigan. The Game was thought to be an equivalent of a World Cup soccer consolation game. However, on […]

Sometimes, you just get your arse kicked in. All year, the story of Michigan had been one of improvement. Some of it, probably, was assumed to be a wider gap than it really was, just because of the natural assumption that Jim Harbaugh was not Brady Hoke. Everything Michigan did well flowed from the belief […]

It’s the last week of the Big Ten season, and the stakes couldn’t be higher in Columbus, Ann Arbor and East Lansing, but there are also other storylines to keep your nose into. Each week as the season winds down, Phil Harrison takes a look at some thoughts and key things to watch as you […]

As rain poured down on Fort Worth Friday night, Baylor’s playoff chances dried up and shriveled. The Bears laid strewn across the field at Amon G. Carter Stadium, covered in chewed-up grass and shredded dreams. It was a nightmarish game to behold, the aesthetic antithesis of last year’s 61-58 thriller played in calm conditions on […]

“In the final analysis, I had to evaluate where Iowa was.” – Nebraska Athletic Director Shawn Eichorst in 2014 before deciding to make the coaching change that ended up with Bo Pelini out and Mike Riley in. As humans, we all “burn the tape” in our lives. You’ll hear coaches mention it when a game […]

I’ll admit it. I’m done. I’m done discounting this Iowa team. Week after week, I keep looking for it to stumble and prove me right, showing that a team without the type of athlete that passes the eye test can’t continue to do what it does week, after week, after week. Yet, it never happened. […]

Keenan Reynolds’ Heisman Trophy hopes went up like smoke in the night. It was no fault of his own, but that is of little comfort to Navy’s distinguished quarterback after a loss to the Houston Cougars. Reynolds had a career day throwing the ball on Friday. He compiled 312 passing yards and he rushed for […]

If you want to understand exactly why Tom Herman is already a hot commodity for some major coaching openings just 12 games into his career, it was all on display Friday. Coming off a loss at Connecticut last week, Herman said: “Nowhere on our goals did it say we wanted to go 12-0. It just […]
Navy just defeated Army and now has a very short turnaround for the Poinsettia Bowl, with quarterback Keenan Reynolds at less than 100 percent (hamstring). Navy bagged a winning season and increased its winning streak over Army to 13 games. A bowl result won’t radically reshape the way this season is remembered in Annapolis.

It’s Thanksgiving, which means there’s plenty to be reflect on. It’s no different in Big Ten football, but the things each program is grateful for change by location. So dive into the turkey and pumpkin pie, unloosen your belt, and kick back and enjoy this wonderful holiday by looking at what each team in the Big […]

The good old days often refer to a luminous past which can never be fully recaptured. For the Bedlam football series, the good old days are right now. * Oklahoma and Oklahoma State had existed in a Big Brother-Little Brother relationship for many years. The Sooners almost always set the standard in the Big Eight […]
Not only is Stanford University considered one of the most prestigious schools in the country, but it has one of the most inviting campuses, as well. Students are drawn to the school for its palm trees, nice weather and, most importantly, its rigorous curriculum.

The Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving are cherished pieces of college football, because they bring back the tradition, romance, and sweet nostalgia of this sport. They recall a time when college football — yes, not pure and innocent under the surface; coaches did cheat back then — was treasured and accepted for what it was, […]

If you have seen our Bubble Watch here at The Student Section, you will remember that we still count 13 teams with a chance at making the College Football Playoff. Some of these teams have worse chances than the others, while some have very clear paths to the Playoff. With only two weeks left in […]
