Was the Ohio State Quarterback Situation a Curse?

You know the saying; “If you have two quarterbacks, you actually have none.” That trend was supposed to be bucked with Ohio State this season, and there was good reason to believe so. Except in Ohio State’s case, rather than two, the Buckeyes had a trio of signal-callers, all with proven track records. Back was […]

TCU-Oklahoma Reaction: Give Sooners Credit for Winning

In nail-biter like the TCU-Oklahoma game which unfolded on a crisp November night filled with playoff intensity, it’s easy to come up with a number of different takes about what just transpired. After all, in a one-point ballgame, a number of things could have happened that would have produced an entirely different outcome. However, there […]

Oklahoma State is hunted down… and out of the playoff

Mike Gundy has done amazing work in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Nothing which happened Saturday night was going to change that fact. Nothing which happens for the rest of this season can change that fact. Oklahoma State — not Oklahoma, not Nebraska, not Texas, not a blue-chip program — should have played for the 2011 national title. […]

The Leash Grows Shorter For Les Miles At LSU

By the nature of the profession, it’s almost never pretty when the end comes for a legendary college coach, or even the very good ones who build and define their programs. The Tom Osborne moment in the 1998 Orange Bowl is rare. One need only to look at Gary Pinkel (a tumultuous season unlikely to end in […]

UCLA’s Defense Stifles Utah, Putting the Bruins in Position to Win the Pac-12 South

It’s been a season of ups and downs for UCLA football. The Bruins started out the year with a bang, earning a 36-point win over defending Pac-12 South champion Arizona in the conference opener.

Northwestern stops Wisconsin, continuing to prove its worth

As we all know, the holidays are a time of giving. With Thanksgiving approaching, Wisconsin was in a giving mood to Northwestern for most of Saturday in a 13-7 Wildcat victory. Joel Stave and the Badger offense weren’t just generous. They were charitable on their own side of the field, especially in the early going. […]

Watch: Utah State’s Devante Mays jukes defender off his feet

Devante Mays put together two fantastic moves on this run. the first is a dandy spin move that keeps Mays on his feet and moving forward. The second is a spectacular fake out as the defender falls to the ground in an attempt to stay with Mays…. This RB's juke move literally made a defender […]

Mark Dantonio’s Mona Lisa puts MSU back (gasp!) in the playoff hunt

On Sunday, Michigan State had best be in your top four. It’s been a good while since we’ve seen a win as impressive as what the Spartans put up in a 17-14 shocker of Ohio State whilst their Heisman-contender quarterback hung out on the sidelines all game with a shoulder injury. Michigan State led for […]

North Carolina makes history as Frank Beamer leaves it behind

Dreams are fickle. The controlled idealism constructed by the mind can be beautiful in its eloquence and fulfilling in its positivity. Yet, dreams always end the same way. You wake up and they fall away into the ether, blown to dust by the reality of current existence, which is what Virginia Tech learned all too […]

Temple’s defense dominates Memphis and keeps AAC title hopes alive

A common theme has emerged this AAC season for both Memphis and Temple: finishing. Coming into the contest, Temple had lost two out of three games against Notre Dame and South Florida, with a win over SMU sandwiched in. The Owls were in need of a momentum-generating win. Enter Memphis. In key moments from Saturday’s […]
