A lot of people — including Gator fans — didn't like the Will Muschamp hire. Instead, they wanted someone with head coaching experience, and "the big name." They did not want a 39-year-old defensive coordinator, even if he was the head coach in waiting for the Texas Longhorns. A lot ...Published on: 31st October, 2010
OK, Oregon Duck fans, and Pac-10 fans in general, time to step up to the plate and admit the truth: East Coast bias does not exist. It never has, and it never will. Just take the last few years. Exhibit A: USC winning the AP title in 2003. Exhibit B: USC sweeping ...Published on: 8th October, 2010
Say what you want about Alabama. They have as much tradition as any program in college football. They have as much talent as any team in college football. They have the best coach in college football's modern era. They are currently dominating college football's No. 1 conference. They have lost ...Published on: 15th September, 2010
Year in, year out, it is the same thing. "Our defense stinks. We can't stop anybody. We lack speed, explosiveness, and big-play ability. Our front four is pretty good, but our LBs and DBs are mid-major caliber. We just don't have the horses on defense like we used to, like Ohio ...Published on: 27th August, 2010
Now it is one thing to have Nebraska ranked No. 8 preseason. Nebraska did win 10 games last year with some rather strong performances to close the season, and there also aren't very many teams out there that look great or even very good. So if Alabama, Florida and Texas can ...Published on: 25th July, 2010
It is curious. Whenever an NCAA player gets caught taking money, and it results in his team forfeiting victories, championships, and scholarships, the condemnation comes fast and furious: "Greedy! Cheater! Thug! Selfish! No respect for rules! Does not appreciate the value of an education! Can't you just wait 3 years ...Published on: 17th July, 2010
Update: replaced the picture of Lane Kiffin, who is really blameless in all this, with that of Reggie Bush, who is the primary culprit and represents USC's complete and total abdication of their responsibility towards their athletes. Also, added a few things for emphasis and clarity. First, allow me to say ...Published on: 1st July, 2010
Okay, so Kenny Britt showed up for the beginning of offseason workouts out of shape. So his attitude and concentration were not what they should have been. So his nickname given to him by his own teammates is "question mark." So what? The bottom line is that when the real football ...Published on: 21st June, 2010
Call me crazy, but I say that if the Redskins do not make the playoffs in 2010, it has to be considered a disappointment. As a matter of fact, barring injury problems and other things beyond the control of the players and coaches, anything less than 8-8 would be considered ...Published on: 18th June, 2010
Ah, the Colorado Buffaloes. They were once a football powerhouse. Of course, that was back when they had a university, administration, and local community that generally reflected a Midwest that included Big 10 (Michigan, Ohio State, Iowa, Wisconsin) and Big 8/Big 12 (Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas, Texas A&M, Kansas State) athletic powerhouses. Oh yes, ...
