Imagine Being The Guy In The Plunger Costume

Don't Even THINK Of Ranking Michigan In Your Top 25

JoePa Demands A Job Done Right
If we had our way, Joe Paterno would coach Penn State until the end of time. If the Lord ever decides, misguidedly, to take JoePa, we hope his ghost patrols the sidelines until all the players are wearing rocket packs. Because he's our type of guy....
Three Days Later, The Upset Still Stuns
As much as we enjoyed the link to all the other Big Ten teams celebrating Michigan's loss, and as happy as we are for Appalachian State — some of whose fans actually saw this coming — we still have to focus on those Michigan fans, who saw their entire season (and perhaps so much more) evaporate in a...
App State Wins!
Wow, that sure looked impressive from the ten second highlight package! The Division 1-AA (now called something else) champs from Appalachian State came up to the Big House and ran roughshod over the Corn and Blue. For some Dan Shanoff style insta-history let's go to...Dan Shanoff!...
Hugh II: The Nedessy Continues... Pt. 1
And we’re underway! Welcome to another glorious season of college football and the official kickoff of Hugh II: The Nedessy Continues... Now let’s see what everybody had to say while I was watching Fulham’s miracle.... (photo courtesy of SEC Poon, easily the greatest website of the new season)...
Football Games ALL DAY Tomorrow! Seriously!
As we remind you one last time to join our Pick 'Em group, we prepare ourselves for a rousing opening weekend of college football....
And, At Last, It Begins (Kind Of)
As much as we look forward to the beginning of college football season, it still takes us by surprise when it actually begins: It's actually kicking off tonight. In the spotlight game, it's Louisiana State, ranked No. 2 by just about everybody, travels to Mississippi State. The LSU fans are excited...
Former OSU President Glad To Be Out Of That Sodom
We've made a lot of jokes about Ohio State here — most of them have been made for us — but we've never considered their fans rampaging monsters bent on destruction. Of course, we've never been president of the university....
Trees Are No Match For Vols Fans
Ah, the classic liberal enclave of Berkeley. Aging hippies, still listening to Workingman's Dead on 33 rpm, railing against the capitalist system and eating all kinds of food that tastes terrible. Where would we be without them? They remind us of what college campuses used to be like, before everybo...
In One Way, The Illini Already Are Champions
The college football season is but three days away, and to the hardcore fan, that means only one thing: The Fulmer Cup has been awarded! And yes, this year's winner of Every Day Should Be Saturday's yearly ode to collegiate athlete malfeasance is one that hits us close to the heart. Somewhere aroun...
Bruins Nation Taking Down USC, One Coach At A Time
Hell hath no fury like a UCLA fan with some dirt on someone in the USC football program. The Internets are abuzz today with the news that Todd McNair, USC's running backs coach, was convicted accused (and pleaded out) of dogfighting and animal cruelty back in the 1990s. The Los Angeles Times did up ...

Your College Football Preseason Wish List
Anyone who doubts the power of Deadspin readers needs to be reminded that you guys don't mess around at all. Upon a call to arms for the Hugh Johnson Project revival, all day the IM windows have been popping up like acne on a Pizza Hut delivery boy's face. This preseason wish list for Hugh II: And T...
Honestly, What's NCAA Football Without Hugh Johnson?
High atop the Family Feud board of most popular questions Deadspinions posed to the Democratic Assembly of Deadspin Administrating Saturdays/Sundays (D.A.D.A.S.S.) was, "Who did Sussman bang to get the job?" "Will you guys bring Hugh Johnson back?" Well, I hope the logo hovering over this paragraph...
Dance, Marshall Fella, Dance
Last night, in Huntington, W.Va., the Marshall football team hosted a Women's Clinic, meant, apparently, to explain to feeble minded babymakers the basic concepts of football so that they will understand when to leave the room, when to leave the house and when to just bring more beer. It's not easy...
Michael Vick Hall Shall Stand!
Here's something we didn't know: At Virginia Tech, they actually have a Michael Vick Hall. (You can kind of see it on that map, if you squint.)...
FIU Must Protect This House!
You might remember, during Miami announcer Lamar Thomas' insane rant during the Miami-Florida International fight last year, when he said something to the effect of, "you don't come into our house pulling that," or some similar nonsense. Well guess what, Lamar? Ned and his band of FIU faithful are a...
