Boise State is a program in transition as we approach the 2014 season. For the first time in five years, the Broncos weren’t voted a preseason top 25 team. For the first time since 2005, their coach is not Chris Petersen. For the first time since 2002, Boise State is following up a season in […]

The last time the Boise State Broncos met an SEC team, they beat the Georgia Bulldogs in 2011 in the Georgia Dome by two touchdowns. A lot has changed since then and the Broncos are coming off of a disappointing 8-5 season. What is the biggest difference between the 2011 Broncos team and today’s team? […]

On Twitter @TheCoachBart It was 1995, and a middle school kid in the heartland screwed up in school. The kind of screw up that you figure normally warrants the powers that be to issue out stiff punishment the likes of which not seeing any rooms but the bedroom and the john would be reasonable to […]

Georgia wide receiver Chris Conley led the Bulldogs last season with 45 receptions for 651 yards but his interests go far beyond the football field. Earlier this year he released a Star Wars fan film titled “Retribution” and it is approaching 400,000 views on Youtube. ESPN’s Ivan Maisel took a look at Conley’s “direction in […]

The Cincinnati Bearcats enter year two under Tommy Tuberville as The American favorites — that’s the conference; Cincinnati isn’t America’s team. I think that’s trademarked. Cincinnati was tabbed the AAC favorite by the AAC media. It’s a bit of a spotlight on a program that is chasing the next level of success: expectations. Cincinnati has […]
Eventually, Diesel and his pals need to sack up.

On Twitter @TheCoachBart Last column of this sort before the season starts. It’s been a great tradition. All three of them so far and all. Traditions are funny things. I have no idea how many times something needs to happen to be a “tradition.” In dating, it’s always useful after basically you don’t want to […]

Who doesn’t like a good bargain? Who doesn’t like pizza? Who doesn’t like an incredibly good deal on pizza? A Fayetteville, Arkansas pizza shop is ready to cook up a fantastic deal for customers if — IF — Arkansas opens the season with a 1-0 record. That would mean beating defending SEC champion Auburn, on the […]

On Thursday, the Aggies will travel to Columbia to take on the Gamecocks at 6pm (EST) in the first ever live college football game aired on the SEC Network. This is only the Aggies third season in the SEC so our “fun fact” isn’t that troubling yet but if the Aggies lose to South Carolina […]

Our topic for today’s Editors’ Roundtable is a very simple one: Game. Week. Say my name: “GAME. WEEK.” * Question No. 1: A general question before tackling the specifics of week one: How much stock do you normally put into week-one performances? Bart Doan: On Twitter

I have had one TV in my home office fixed on FXX with The Simpsons marathon ongoing. I have been enjoying rewatching many of the classic episodes from when I still watched the show (I am looking forward to finally binge watching many of the episodes originally airing after 2004, when I started to stop […]

The Marshall Thundering Herd may be the longest of shots that have been highlighted in this collection of potential teams that could grab the at-large big in the major bowl games, more so than Louisiana-Lafayette. Marshall faces a difficult challenge: its schedule. It’s not difficult in terms of whom Marshall plays; it’s difficult in that […]
