Bob Stoops to Florida? If You’re Lucky, Gators

Back in 2001, Bob Stoops was the hot name on football’s coaching carousel. Oklahoma’s head coach was a year removed from winning a national championship in just his second season in Norman and clearly had the Sooners on an upward trajectory after a decade-plus of wandering the desert. When the news broke that winter that […]

Tip Off Marathon Winners and Losers

The college basketball season officially began last Friday, but it unofficially began Monday night with the ESPN Tip-Off Marathon. The sprawling event concluded late Tuesday after over 29 hours of basketball. That is a lot to digest. To help you wrap your head around the action, we are going to break down the winners and […]

The time has come to bid farewell to the coaches poll

The College Football Playoff has changed the game, although we may still be attempting to determine if it is for better or worse. One thing I do know about the College Football Playoff despite a single game under the new format being played is this: the coaches’ poll may be the most irrelevant thing in college […]

Jake Waters and the rest of the Kansas State offense were noticeably sluggish against Iowa State. This Thursday, the Wildcats expect to play several notches better than they did against the Cyclones, and that’s merely a starting point for the showdown against Auburn.

Watch: EMU’s Karrington Ward posterizes Oakland defender

You don’t see many Eastern Michigan basketball highlights, well at least I don’t, but this one is definitely worth checking out. EMU beat Oakland 89-77 and Karrington Ward posterized this poor kid for the rest of his life…. Oh and gotta love the homer announcer….”that’s a facial!”.

The Heisman leader, Marcus Mariota, and the Oregon Ducks were idle this past weekend. Last week’s runner-up, Dak Prescott, had a rough outing as his Mississippi State team fell to the Alabama Crimson Tide.
