Cal wins, Texas loses, and it’s a lot more complicated than that

To a certain undeniable extent, the Texas Longhorns — as you read this piece — feel crushed. They fought so long and so hard, mostly uphill, on Saturday night against the California Golden Bears. They trailed, 45-24, in the second half. They gave up 31 straight points after attaining a 24-14 lead late in the […]

What follows is in no way intended to diminish what the LSU Tigers achieved on Saturday afternoon in their home ballpark.

Watch: Leonard Fournette runs over Auburn

0 comments by

At some point this pre-season, I said LSU RB Leonard Fournette wouldn’t win the Heisman Trophy this season (not that he wasn’t good but because I wasn’t sure how good LSU would be). I could be very, very wrong. He ran wild on the Auburn defense today. He totaled 228 yards and 3 TD. Take […]

No one’s laughing in Missouri, but the Tigers usually laugh later

0 comments by

The Missouri Tigers continue to be the same kind of program, year after year. This isn’t entirely a good thing, and in September, it’s definitely not a good thing. However — and there’s absolutely no snark here — being the same kind of program has worked out pretty well for Missouri in recent years. If […]

Florida State-Boston College quick reaction: don’t overreact

0 comments by on 9/18/2015

If you watched Friday night’s Florida State-Boston College game on the heels of Thursday night’s Clemson-Louisville clash, you’d swear that ACC stands for “acutely conservative conference,” with offenses unable to execute and therefore less inclined to take risks. When you wake up on the morning of Saturday, Sept. 19, you will greet an ACC that […]

Uniform of the Week: Why does LSU wear white at home?

0 comments by

The world of college football jerseys will continue to evolve in one way or another, but one thing will pretty much always stay the same. Home teams will wear a colored jersey and visiting teams will wear a white jersey. That is, of course, unless the home team is LSU. While most of the home […]

Karma touches down in Louisville

Bobby Petrino has made a career of burning bridges and somehow swimming to shore in time to watch the world crumble behind him, but karma is finally catching up.
