On Twitter @TheCoachBart There’s an old, stupid saying that goes, “What you don’t know can’t hurt you.” It’s pure BS, obviously, because most of what ends up killing us is what we originally don’t know. People used to think cigarettes were healthy and eugenics was a good idea. In Medieval times, people only bathed a […]

Concussions in football — this important topic rushed to the forefront of college football’s radar screen over the past weekend, when Michigan quarterback Shane Morris appeared to have suffered a concussion in the Wolverines’ game against Minnesota. Michigan head coach Brady Hoke inexplicably allowed Morris to take a snap anyway, later claiming he didn’t notice […]

On Twitter @TheCoachBart * Wins Can Be Found In Kansas, Dorothy Kansas has a football job opening, and it’s a good job. Scoff if you must, but these are the breaks. If you’re looking for a shot to be great, the job is open, and the juice is worth the squeeze. Charlie Weis was fired […]

Kansas football did what it had to Sunday, firing Charlie Weis just into his third season as head coach. Why Make the Change Now? Make no mistake about it: this is something KU had to do right now. Sure, it’s usually not a good thing for a program to terminate its coach in the middle […]
Few coaches are going to face as much withering pressure next season as USC’s Steve Sarkisian. Anything less than a Pac-12 South title will be an unquestioned and absolute failure. The lack of a Pac-12 championship — with Oregon no longer having Marcus Mariota — would be a modest disappointment at the very least. Sark can’t squander the considerable talent he’s stockpiled in L.A.

Thanks to a 22-10 victory over defending divisional champ Duke, Miami is now back in the ACC Coastal Division race. While the reality of the ‘Canes competing for a championship isn’t exactly a surprise, the reason that they are in league title picture certainly is. Just one week after a poor showing against Nebraska, the […]

This play speaks for itself. Check out this big hit by Nebraska DE Randy Gregory, which allowed Nate Gerry to return this interception to the Illinois 2-yard line.

Not sure what Spurrier was doing on this play as he didn’t seem to be paying attention to the game…. h/t Barrett Sallee

Every person who writes about sports faces this fundamental tension in the wake of a game that flows in one direction through three quarters and then takes a 180-degree turn in the fourth: Did the winner win, or did the loser lose? In these situations, the winner always deserves a certain degree of credit — […]

On Twitter @TheCoachBart It was 1994, and it was just an early season game against Colorado. Some pre-teen Michigan fan was decked out, arguing with his mother about having to attend some mis-scheduled church function because normally, those don’t get scheduled when the Michigan game is on. This one would cause the kid to miss […]

If you do want to run on the field during a game (which is extremely stupid), I would advise you to run away from the Strength and Conditioning Coach. This fan was not that smart…. Great tackle, Anthony Schlegel. Great photo, Adam Cairns (

On one hand, the Stanford Cardinal thoroughly deserved to win Saturday afternoon’s Pac-12 North slugfest against the Washington Huskies. The Trees towered over the Dawgs for most of a sunny and shadowy day at Husky Stadium, limiting Washington to only 179 yards, under 100 in both passing and rushing yards. Stanford has not been a […]
From one vantage point, Auburn’s passing game with Nick Marshall will be a foremost factor in Saturday’s game against Mississippi State.

With so many close games going on at the time, many people might have missed this tremendous effort from Auburn QB Nick Marshall. Watch as he runs backwards to avoid the rush and finds Quan Bray in the end zone for the backbreaking score. Nick Marshall escapes and finds Quan Bray for a 44-yard strike […]
