0 comments by on 9/26/2015

In the span of two games, BYU has gone from main-event dreams to an undercard reality. Saturday against Michigan the Cougars were beaten from pillar to post for the full 60 minutes. Time seems to finally have caught up to Bronco Mendehall and Co. After pulling out nearly impossible wins over Nebraska and Boise State, […]

After losing 10 straight games against Georgia Tech from 2004 through 2013, Duke has won two straight in this series, thanks to an unlikely source. Let’s be honest: when people think of a David Cutcliffe-coached team, the first thing that comes to mind is high-octane offenses. Whether it was with Peyton Manning at Tennessee, Eli […]

LSU’s win over Wisconsin and Auburn’s win over Kansas State did more to shape perceptions (and resumes) in the 2014 college football season than any other non-conference games. This point cannot be forgotten when a full account of the season is ultimately rendered.

WATCH: Leonard Fournette Continues to Run Wild

LSU’s Leonard Fournette had a monster game last week against Auburn where he ran and ran, then he ran and ran some more because he’s a running machine. Today, LSU is playing Syracuse. The Tigers decided to dial up a pass play. But even this pass play found a way to end up with a […]

WATCH: Amara Darboh Goes Full Odell Beckham Jr

0 comments by

Michigan receiver Amara Darboh set the standard for catch of the day, maybe even catch of the year, very, very high with this tremendous one handed grab reminiscent of one Odell Beckham Jr. If the great video isn’t enough, here’s a still: Pretty great way to celebrate becoming an American citizen this week if you […]

Virginia has not beaten Virginia Tech since 2003, and the Cavaliers have defeated Frank Beamer’s boys only once since 1998. If Mike London can’t beat the Hokies now, he probably never will… because he won’t see the 2015 season as Virginia’s head coach.

The story of the Boise State Broncos got more interesting on Friday night in Charlottesville, Virginia. A team with a new quarterback (Brett Rypien), due to an injury to the previous one (Ryan Finley), looked very strong in a road game played two time zones away from Idaho. However, it’s a little too early to […]

“Yeah!” by Usher was the Billboard’s No. 1 hit. The social media site MySpace was just more than a year old. Shrek 2 was the country’s top box office hit. Tennessee used two freshman quarterbacks, a late personal foul from receiver Dallas Baker, and a 50-yard field goal as time expired from James Wilhoit to […]

Big South Preview

Did you know the Southern Conference and the Big South Conference are two different conferences? You do now. While the Big South had a better average ranking in KenPom last season, the league is weaker at the top, with no top 100 teams last year and just two in the top 150. That’s part of […]

The Memphis Tigers showed off their special tiger stripes chrome helmet for a Thursday night nationally televised contest. Perhaps by design, the Tigers wore their special helmets against Cincinnati, home to the NFL’s Cincinnati Bengals. This can’t be a coincidence. The similarities are striking, from the stripe pattern on the helmet to the shoulder sleeve […]

Earlier this week, Matt Zemek profiled the historic nature of the 2013 loss by the USC Trojans to the Arizona State Sun Devils. In that game, the Sun Devils overwhelmed the USC defense and put a 62-41 beating on the Trojans. Last season, with Steve Sarkisian in control, USC was looking for revenge. It was […]
