Your Complete College Football TV Guide
We're starting to be able to sniff out college football, it's so close now. Exactly four weeks from tomorrow, as a matter of fact....
Boeheim Must Have Had Some Hand In This
We don't mean to imply that the Syracuse football team might not be so good this year, but they have a wide receiver who is five-foot-four. We think our family dog is taller than that....
Four Tiny Tidbits On: The Big Ten
We must confess that we can't wait each year for the crunch of shoulder pads; for cleats churning up chunks of turf and red-faced coaches screaming from the sidelines. But enough about lacrosse. College football season is upon us, and to celebrate, we're going to get back into tiny tidbit mode and...
Trev Alberts Returns To TV (Kind Of)
You might not remember this, since it was almost a year ago and we typically can't remember what happened last week, but last September college football analyst Trev Alberts was fired by ESPN for "not showing up for work", though we have mostly heard since then that Alberts was fed up with the carto...
Four Tiny Tidbits On: The Big East
We must confess that we can't wait each year for the crunch of shoulder pads; for cleats churning up chunks of turf and red-faced coaches screaming from the sidelines. But enough about lacrosse. College football season is upon us, and to celebrate, we're going to get back into tiny tidbit mode and...
Shortening Your Saturdays
The Wizard of Odds has been all over this wacky new rule in college football, rule 3-2-5-e. It's not getting a lot of attention from the major outlets, but it could have a major effect on college football games, and it has a lot of college coaches pissed off something fierce....
Maurice Clarett, Handling Himself Just Fine, Yep
We thought we might check in and see how our old friend Maurice Clarett is doing, now that he has fired his lawyers just two weeks before his trial. Well, he has some new lawyers, and they have exactly a fortnight to, you know, find out what the hell the case is about....
Someone Could Really Use Matlock Around Right Now
We don't mean to imply that matters have gotten as bad as they possibly could get for Maurice Clarett just two weeks before his robbery trial ... but they're as bad as they could possibly get....
Great Tastes That Taste Great Together!
This photo, from Sports Illustrated's "College Football Summer Bonding" story, is rather obviously more gay than anything at the Gay Games in Chicago last week. This is how they bond: A slip-and-slide? Yeah ... in prison!...
AJ Hawk Is A Moral Man
As a followup to our AJ Hawk/Laura Quinn/shotgun wedding post from yesterday, we look to the Dayton Daily News, which gives us the full report on why AJ Hawk, rather than go through with the planned wedding in March, got married in his lawyer's office while wearing his Under Armour gear. (Seriousl...
A.J Hawk's Shotgunnish Wedding?
If you were trying to book a wedding next March in Columbus, Ohio, over the last few months — not that anybody we know might have been — one of the primo spots in town was booked for a huge, lavish wedding between former Ohio State Buckeyes and current Green Bay Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk and La...
That's Quite An Offseason Transformation
Amazing find from The Wizard Of Odds: This appears to be a shot of Oklahoma offensive lineman George Robinson one year ago, and Oklahoma offensive lineman George Robinson from Sooners training camp today. We haven't been able to confirm it's the same guy — though we see no reason they'd change numbe...
Where To Get Your NCAA Football 2007 Rosters
This was covered rather thoroughly in the awesome entertaining NCAA Football 2007 comments thread yesterday, but in case anybody didn't sift out the information, there are two sites, we're told, where you can get the rosters for NCAA Football 2007, on PS2 or XBOX....
Ladies And Gentlemen, Meet Lucious Pusey
The Realests are going bonkers this morning over their latest discovery, but we have to say that we do not find this funny at all. What is so hilarious, after all, about a college football player named Lucious Pusey? (Roman guard begins to giggle). Centurion, why do they titter so? Just because I ...
Time For College Football, Already, And It's About Time
Every Day Should Be Saturday is your one-stop shop for everything college football related — even NCAA Football 2007-related — and if you're not going there every day already, sheesh, why not? And just as a quick primer, here's an excellent rundown of the best names in college football this year. ...
Kellen Winslow, Soldier (In Pads, And With Free School And A Big Contract And Little Chance Of Actually, You Know, Being Killed)
So we'd never actually seen this old video of Kellen Winslow Jr., after a Miami game against Tennessee. He is answering a question about whether or not a player he leveled with a devastating block was hurt. And we get confirmation that Kellen Winslow, tight end for an Ohio football team, is a soldie...
That Ref Is Not A Pirate; He's Just Blind
We don't ask much of referees in our sports: They should be fair, they should try to avoid taking away from the action on the field, they should, in a pinch, be able to prance around a bit. And, not to be a stickler, it would be nice if they had two working eyes....
Apparently Student Athletes Have It Easier Than Us
We once showed up for a lecture hall study session for an economics class of about 200 people at the University of Illinois, sitting next to a friend of ours who was much better about attending class than we were. As people filed in, an older man sat next to us and asked, "Hey, is this the Econ 10...
Texas A&M, Represent!
One day thousands of years from now, when a superior alien intelligence stumbles upon the remains of our long-extinct civilization, we only pray that they don't come across this video. Just our luck it will be the only thing that survives, and we don't want anyone to get the wrong idea about us. We ...
Randy Walker, R.I.P.
Randy Walker, head coach of the Northwestern Wildcats, died last night of a heart attack. The former Miami of Ohio coach — that school has produced an amazing number of coaches, by the way, from Woody Hayes to Bo Schembechler to Ara Parseghian — had just signed a contract extension in April that wou...
