Oklahoma Punts On Fourth-And-Goal? From The 44-Yard Line? Against Kansas?

Let's Check In With Rich Rodriguez, Who Is Throwing A Tantrum
Rich Rodriguez has very little business being in college football anymore, so naturally, he’s been given another chance at it this season as Ole Miss’s offensive coordinator. Down only 14-10 to Alabama, the Rebels ended up burning a timeout in the second quarter, and Rich Rod thoroughly lost it in t...

The Big 12 Exists To Make Jalen Hurts Look Incredible
It would appear that Lincoln Riley has once again worked his magic, turning another quarterback that’s transferred to Oklahama into a top candidate to win the Heisman.

Columbia University Wipes Out Its Delightfully Chaotic Marching Band For Bullcrap Reasons

College Football Coaches Love To Get Upset About The Internet
College football coaches, as a general rule, are a weird group of people.

UCLA Scored 50 Points In 20 Minutes For A Psychedelic Comeback Against Washington State
Only the true East Coast degenerates—not even myself, if we’re coming clean—would have had the guts and belief to stick with UCLA’s game at Washington State after 1 a.m. Sunday morning, when the No. 19 ranked Cougars went up 49-17 on the winless Bruins midway through the third quarter. But those who...

Charles Woodson Has Had Enough Of The Michigan Wolverines
Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines had their asses handed to them in a 35-14 loss to Wisconsin on Saturday afternoon.

Hot Mic At Ole Miss-Cal Picks Up Fan Yelling "Fuck You, Communist Motherfucker"
