Realistically, the ACC is down 4 teams, … Continue reading »

The Spartans remain winless in conference play, with all five of those contests being decided by at least 11 points – and two of them by 25 points. The third of those five games, the Homecoming abomination against UCLA, felt like a team with no fight, […]

They rattled off an 8-0 record in year one to qualify for the ACC Championship Game and then started year two 3-0, remaining unblemished against their new conference peers. All […]

The Wisconsin Badgers had a tough 21-7 loss to the No. 6 Oregon Ducks on Sunday, falling to 2-6 on the season with their sixth-straight loss. The story was the same as it’s been for the Badgers: an anemic offense unable to sustain any momentum. On Saturday, it was one of the worst quarterback showings […]

The Miami Hurricanes won 42-7 on Saturday night over the Stanford Cardinal at Hard Rock Stadium. The spread varied anywhere from 31ish down to 28.5. It was a win and a cover for the Hurricanes. But, for me, the old motto of “good teams win, great teams cover” doesn’t quite hit home for me after […]

Yeeesh. Listen, I’ll gladly take the W and nod along with the “found a way to win it” crowd. But this game did very little to assuage the nerves I wrote about after the Mizzou win. These close games feel unsustainable (though, I also said that a few weeks, and a few wins, ago). I’ll […]

It was late heartbreak for the Wildcats on Friday, as an 87th minute penalty from Mitar Mitrovic gave No. 13 Michigan a 2-1 come-from-behind victory. The win leaves Northwestern in a tie for last place in the Big Ten standings. The ’Cats sit on only five points after seven games. Meanwhile, Michigan’s victory propels it […]

Let’s throw some quick love to the Iowa football twitter account. Got to hand it to the Iowa media crew. They have crushed for the last three weeks, going back to the Wisconsin game. Absolute fire from those people. To the game! I really thought this would be close. Minnesota allowed 294 yards per game […]

Let’s go back to third-and-12, with 9:18 left in the fourth quarter. Northwestern is on Nebraska’s 36-yard line, with all the momentum on its side after coming back down 21-6 to tie the game.

Gonzaga’s exhibition against Western Oregon comes with a direct line back to Mark Few’s earliest coaching days. Western Oregon’s new head coach, Ryan Orton, is the son of Doug Orton, the high school coach who hired Few for his very first coaching job at Creswell High School in the mid-1980s. Few ran the freshman team […]

Detailed. Accountable. Relentless. Touch. Toughness Those are the words Fran Brown’s program lives by and while some of you would debate this, I think that even in the last four games that Syracuse has held up to those standards….the first one though has been lacking and it’s killing the Orange. Syracuse was blown out as […]

Not long ago, the possibility of Penn State’s trip to Ohio State would be a #1 vs. #2 match-up seemed likely – perhaps inevitable. However, what was forecasted as the biggest game of the regular season has lost its luster thanks to the Nittany Lions 0-4 start in Big Ten play. The Buckeyes will be […]

Much of the blame (that’s not already attributed to the coaches) for UNC’s poor start to the season has been laid to rest at feet of the offense. And rightfully so; UNC’s offense ranked 132nd out of 136 FBS Division 1 schools in yards per game coming into the matchup against Virginia. They only fare […]

You know the scene. A coach stands there in the sideline, the game is already well in hand. Unfortunately, it’s not this guy’s hand. He’s losing this one, and there’s nothing he can do about it. “Phil Fulmer’s special elastic buffet pants!” you exclaim, “what must that poor guy be thinking?“ As usual, I have […]
