The best teams throughout the nation have an ideal balance of capabilities: a strong passing attack, a good rushing game, and a stout defense. However, some teams are completely reliant on a quarterback, providing a tarp which covers holes throughout the roster. Few quarterbacks are able to completely conceal these limitations, but some still have […]

A rather crazy college football weekend is behind us. A few games really altered the way people are projecting the rest of the season. Also, rumors have started to swirl about getting rid of a certain coach in Texas well before he really has a chance to overcome the deficiencies (lack of talent) he inherited. […]

You’ll continue to read more about this as you stay with our site and process everything that happened over the past weekend.

Age is just a number, they say. You’re only as old as you feel, they say. In many ways, those statements will always be true, but in cutthroat professions, getting on in years will introduce its fair share of limitations. Even the most accomplished head coaches in this era of college football (including one who […]

Every college football season is loaded with surprises. Some of these surprises are pleasant. Others aren’t. This column focuses on the latter. It includes a list of six teams that simply haven’t measured up to expectations. So, how did I arrive at the number six, instead of my usual seven? The teams on this list […]

At the start of every season a slew of games are circled as must-see TV, but as the year grinds on, games arise which gain importance from the teams playing them as opposed to reputation and past victories. Here are five of the biggest games left this season that certainly weren’t on anyone’s big-game radar […]

The SEC West is a beautiful disaster. A victim of the contrivances that are preseason polls, the SEC West is nothing like people thought it would be when the season started five weeks ago. The division has been stretched, squeezed, and turned inside out. As college football reaches its midway point, it’s worth gauging who’s […]

This one flew under the radar last night because of how late the game was played but it deserves to be watch. The kings of trickeration are at it again and it’s executed to perfection….

There is no better feeling than a hard fought victory. Here’s a great vine of Clemson and head coach Dabo Swinney celebrating their win over Notre Dame…

It’s a Batman cartoon, or John Madden in his 1980s heyday at CBS, commenting on a hit or a devastating block. It’s most like a sprawling and drunken barroom brawl. The Pac-12, especially in the South, is wild and chaotic, straight from a John Wayne movie. Guys are staggering around, delivering punches in one moment, […]

What, pray tell, is the “Boomerang Club?” Is it a group of all the people who have been hit by a boomerang on a Foster’s beer commercial? Is it a special cheering section at an Australian Rules Football contest, or perhaps a restaurant not too far from an AFL venue? (Said in a whispery voice: […]

On Saturday, the college football landscape saw the latest playoff shake-up of the season. One gets the feeling it won’t be the last. With losses by UCLA and Ole Miss — the previous leaders of two of the Power 5 conferences, along with Notre Dame falling, it leads to the question of whether there will […]

Play selection is easy to criticize in football. If you run and get stuffed, the masses will say you should have passed. If a pass is blanketed by the defense, the critics will shout about the need to have run the ball. Those are generalizations, but they’re part of how reactions to — and assessments […]

It’s become very tiresome. It’s become outdated, worn to the point of absurdity. It’s as stale as the day-old bread stand at the local supermarket… after it’s spent seven days on the shelf, unclaimed. Clemsoning — the gerund used to describe a certain ACC football team squandering prosperity — used to legitimately exist. Clemson would […]

There is a lot to unbox after Alabama’s deconstruction of Georgia. The Crimson Tide embarrassed the Bulldogs on their own field. The destruction was thorough, and Bama showed why, even in a down year, it is one of the best teams in the nation. Non-offensive touchdowns are the ultimate type of game-changer in football, and […]
