Eli Drinkwitz mentioned earlier this week that he wouldn’t hire Kirby Moore’s replacement until he felt comfortable with the Tigers’ approach to the bowl game. According to the latest report from CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz, Drinkwitz’s plans for Virginia must be coming along nicely.

Penn State got humbled on the road against Indiana, then nearly pulled the upset against Michigan State back home. They played exactly like a young team would, with high highs and low lows. Now, they get to face a much easier opponent in the Pitt Panthers, who have already lost to the likes of Quinnipiac […]

I am looking forward to seeing how these two outdo themselves this year. Oh, and there is also a basketball game. But […]

To say it’s been a tumultuous week in Ann Arbor would be putting it mildly. After the shocking dismissal and subsequent arrest of head coach Sherrone Moore last Wednesday, Michigan abruptly shifted its focus from its New Year’s Eve bowl game against Texas to an unexpected search for a new football coach. The timing couldn’t […]

Happy Thursday, everyone. As Brent covered last night, Michigan fired head coach Sherrone Moore after a bizarre and dark episode that could very easily have turned tragic. Kalen DeBoer was immediately named as a top target, despite his assurances to Alabama fans earlier this season that Tuscaloosa is a place that college football coaches just […]

Some games don’t just open a season — they announce a statement. And in 1998, Notre Dame delivered one loud enough to echo all the way from South Bend to Ann Arbor. Coming off a turbulent offseason, a disappointing end to 1997, and a national chorus predicting mediocrity, the Irish entered their season opener against […]

Ohio State’s 27-9 victory over the then-No. 15 Michigan Wolverines hinged on a commanding performance from its offensive line, which consistently reset the line of scrimmage and dictated the tempo against Michigan’s front.

We’ve come a long way from Curt Cignetti saying Ohio State sucks into a microphone at Assembly Hall. That comment, which included jabs at rival Purdue and Michigan, was made to fire up a home crowd and energize a moribund fanbase immediately after Cignetti’s hiring in Bloomington. It also served as a way of punching […]
