One of the best college football players off all time is suiting up for his last game at the Swamp. I think you know that guy is Tim Tebow.
Not only does Tebow have a chance to win his second Heisman trophy, but he's also got an even better chance at [...]
I’m all for college football traditions.
Traditions provide college football with the pageantry and passion that is often lacking from the professional game. Fall Saturdays would not be the same without someone dotting the I in Ohio, an orange-tinged crowd singing Rocky Top, or a whole stadium standing just in case [...]
Watching football takes many different forms.
If you woke up this morning in Florida State slippers or a scarlet Oklahoma bathrobe, this article probably isn't for you.
There exists a very healthy segment of the population who love college football—the pageantry, the spectacle—but can't help but cast an eye forward. Each game [...]
Unfortunately, it is quite impossible these days to complete a full college football game without a missed call or bad call from the officiating crew.
It is also growing more common for ESPN commentators to not know what they are doing.
To get to the point:
There were several missed calls in the [...]
by Brett McMurphyMORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- The Backyard Brawl between West Virginia and Pittsburgh is one of the best -- and better named -- rivalries in college football.After 2006 and 2007 debacles, most college football fans might not want to see Ohio State playing for a national title ever again.
But with the maturation the team has developed and a 180 in mentality, the Buckeyes could end 2009 as high as sixth in the final polls, and primed [...]
It is the time of year we sit down with family and friends to feast together and fellowship over turkey and dressing, giving thanks for the many blessings in our lives. After our bellies are full and the thankfulness is over and done, we get down to what we have [...]
Dick Vitale is about as famous as, well, Paul McCartney. Jack Nicholson? Donald Trump? Oprah Winfrey?
Let's just agree he is one of the most famous personalities of the past 25 years.
So when the college basketball guru makes a statement, the rest of the world perks up its ears to hear what [...]
As you all know, it's Thanksgiving week. It's also time for some of the greatest rivalries in college football. We'll take a look at every Top 25 matchup, plus a couple that are outside of the Top 25. Oh, and some advice: don't eat so much turkey that you'll miss Friday's [...]
We all have family members that represent certain things to us. Our Grandma always has something special cooking, an uncle that shows up late and leaves early and a cranky family member who is always complaining about something. Some of the college football coaches may indeed remind us of those [...]
This weekend is pretty much just an appetizer to Conference Championship weekend.It was bad enough that we had to hear all that nonsense from Forbes Magazine about how "Hail Flutie" was so important because it made northeastern media elites recognize that college football exists---some of us recall historic moments from 1984 on their [...]
I am often asked to list the best rivalries in college football. My list is probably about the same as yours: Georgia-Florida, Texas-Oklahoma, Ohio State-Michigan, Alabama-Tennessee, Miami-Florida State.
I always leave out Alabama-Auburn and so the question is inevitably asked about the omission. Why do I not list Alabama-Auburn? Because, in [...]
We’re spending the morning trying to think of a word starting with “X” and some half-assed way to tie it to something that happened this weekend in college football, but a quick note of great interest. When you hear it, we think some people should be very careful about [...]
If you’re like me, one of the things for which you’ll be thankful this Thanksgiving is the fact that the 2009 college football season is almost over and women’s gymnastics season is almost upon us. Nevertheless, the show must go on, so I guess it’s time I went ahead and [...]
Another good week of college football is wrapped up and I'm saddened by the realization that just two weeks remain in the regular season.
It was also a good week picking games again. I went 8-1 straight up and 6-3 against the spread.
Here are my thoughts' [...]
What a purely awful college football season this has been. For everything that is sacred in college football, where is the parody!?
At the end of this season everyone will win; the BCS teams raking in $17 million and the BCS itself making millions in ticket sales, merchandise, and T.V. contracts.
Everyone [...]
