LSU's Jarrett Lee Is A Golden...Beer Pong Expert
LSU fans who remember the limp-wristed second quarter toss against Auburn that led to the easiest interception return for a touchdown of the 2008 season will recognize the hand-eye coordination in the above photo of Lee engaging in extracurricular collegiate activities. This photo (courtesy The Big...
Exit, Thunder Collins
Big things were expected of running back Thunder Collins when he arrived at Nebraska in 2000 from East Los Angeles Junior College, where he was an All-American. But things never turned out the way he had hoped, either on the football field or in his personal life. As a runner he turned out to be one...
Georgia-Alabama Game To Be Friendly Backyard "Funeral" (With Cussin')
The premier game of this Saturday's college football schedule is the evening tilt between No. 3 Georgia and No. 8 Alabama, two SEC schools that have very little animosity toward each other. The host Bulldogs are instructing their fans to dress all in black as part of an innovate strategy designed to...

College Football Round-Up Week Four: LSU Wins One For The Golden Girls
I was in Knoxville for UT-Florida, a game with all the suspense of watching one of those live chickens try and survive hanging over the alligator pits. Occasionally the chickens break their neck in a fearful attempt to escape. Which is sort of what the UT football team did on Saturday. Right now UT...
Big Dope Loses All His Cowboys Stuff. Poor, Dumb Sap
You hate to see anyone become the victim of a burglary, but at the same time it's hard to feel any sympathy for Bruce Marziani. Bruce was born and raised in Philadelphia, but is a Dallas Cowboys fan, as you can see. And when he traveled to Irving for the big Monday Night showdown with the Eagles, he...
In Which We Ask The Musical Question, What The Hell Was That?
Kat DeLuna was called a "pop sensation" by the Texas Stadium announcer as she prepared to sing the National Anthem at what I'm assuming was the Monday Night game against the Eagles. She caused a sensation, all right. It's the first time I've heard an anthem singer booed who didn't unintentionally b...

LSU Finds Its New (Unlikely) Hero at QB, Downs Auburn
The annual Auburn-LSU showdown lived up to the hype last night, as redshirt freshman QB Jarrett Lee found Brandon LaFell with an 18-yard touchdown pass with just over a minute remaining. That strike proved to be the difference, as the sixth ranked Tigers pulled out a tough road win, and now have dr...
Terrelle Pryor Does Not Suck
Just because their season came to a crashing halt last weekend it doesn't mean it's too early to start setting things up for next year. After three games, including one crushing loss at USC, Jim Tressel has "finally" handed things over to Terrelle Pryor, the superhuman frosh who gives Ohioans yet an...
It's Been a Swell Week for Racism in Sports
Unless you were away from civilization for the past few days, you're probably up to speed on the Josh Howard National Anthem fiasco. Mark Cuban took down the infamous post featuring crazy emails from crazy racists, but blatant racism reared its ugly head yet again this weekend in the world of sport...

Hugh Won't Believe What NC State Did
NC State stunned #15 Eastern Carolina today. After State got the game into overtime, Andre Brown caught a ball, ran ten yards and asked his teammates to follow him ... to FREEDOM! They obliged. Other winners today so far include Clemson (which blanked South Carolina State), Boston College, Northwes...

Hugh There With the Sideburns; Yeah, HUGH!
All of the games so far today are still in their infancy (though the suspense has completely been extinguished in the contests involving Penn St., Alabama and Georgia Tech), which means we shall turn to our good friend "the dick joke" to get us through the early afternoon. But before we do that, wo...
The Josh Howard Question Veers Into Dark, Creepy Email Territory
We get our share of nutty email around these parts — oh, do we ever — but I'm fairly confident that it's nothing compared to what Mark Cuban finds each morning when he opens his laptop. When you're a billionaire and an NBA owner and the author of a popular blog, your inbox has to be chock full of ev...

Cowboys Love Them Wide Open Spaces
We mentioned this in morning blogdome, but felt that it needed to be expanded. See what I did there? Scientists estimate that sometime in the future, perhaps a hundred years from now, the typical human ass will be wider than a Subaru Outback. In Texas, they're already getting close. As workers begin...
Excerpt: "Boys Will Be Boys" By Jeff Pearlman
"Boys Will Be Boys", Jeff Pearlman's fascinating account of the glory days of the Cowboys dynasty is making the media rounds this week and we will happily join in to promote it. It is ridiculously entertaining. Yes, Charles Haley is the star, but there is so much more to it than just his dong-flappi...
