Just one series after replacing starting QB Gunner Kiel (who left the game after being hit in the head on a targeting call that was reversed by the referees), the Bearcats back-up QB Hayden Moore launched this beautiful TD pass to Chris Moore. 68 yd TD pass by Cincy!

See the cover image for this story, above? It’s a bus. Two years ago, USC athletic director Pat Haden pulled a man named Lane Kiffin — whom you heard absolutely NOTHING about on Thursday (wink, wink) — off a bus at Los Angeles International Airport and fired him before he got to the school’s campus. […]

Winning is hard. There is no doubt about it. It is a lot harder than losing. For instance, if a person were so inclined, s/he could lose on purpose. There are no ways to go about winning on purpose. So, yes, winning is much harder than losing — which makes winning, by default, hard. Enter: […]

Some annual college football conference games are nothing more than that: conference games. They merely exist, and nothing more. Illinois versus Purdue is a conference game. AND? What’s your point? Exactly. Other conference games are can’t-miss blockbusters each year — some over a period of decades (The Iron Bowl, Michigan-Ohio State, USC-UCLA), and some within […]

What’s in a name, and what’s in a word? It can be confusing. Just ask Kentucky basketball coach John Calipari. Baseball historians know all about “Merkle’s Boner” from the 1908 National League season. It was the gateway for the Chicago Cubs to win their most recent World Series title. The reference is made because “boner” […]

The schedule for week four of the season offers a fascinating blend of enlightened and familiarly depressing college football programming decisions. Some aspects of this schedule hit the sweet spot. Others don’t. Yet, the most conspicuous feature of the television slate for week four is that the better instances of time-slotting are — in some […]

As college football enters week four, teams are building and burning their reputations. This era of college football is about winning now. When coaches don’t win, they get moved out. With only three games into the season, let’s open up a discussion about head coaches that need to get their ships turned around. If they […]

Week four of 2015 looks a lot like week four of 2014. Good games on paper are few and far between, but if 2015 can rekindle the chaos of 2014, week four is sure to incite parties and break hearts across the country. Last year week four saw Indiana stun Missouri in Columbia; Mississippi State […]

Bret Bielema — the big talker who belittled Ohio State’s schedule and then lost to a Mid-American Conference team at home — doesn’t deserve to be seen as a somebody in college football right now. Bielema — the man who gets into arguments with coaches after getting waxed by their teams on his own home […]

All offseason, websites and bloggers and television pundits make projections and assessments about the college football schedule. Plenty of perfectly valid points are raised. It’s not as though these analyses are incorrect or misguided. They work with the information they have available. Team X gets a midseason bye week before its biggest road game. Team […]

It’s being reported by multiple outlets that UCLA star Myles Jack has been lost for the season with a knee injury. With a huge game against Arizona on the horizon this weekend, this is just about the worst possible news that the Bruins could have received. So far on the season, Jack had 15 tackles, […]
