But they'll get to it! Good thing they've forgotten abou...
Well, At Least Their Fans Took It Well
It's difficult to pinpoint exactly when the game turned against Rutgers on Thursday ... no wait, here it is.

8 Most Interesting College Football Games of the Weekend
Sometimes choosing which college football games to watch is tough. Particularly since, unlike the NFL, the games kick off at odd hours, on odd stations, with odd match-ups.

Beanie Wells Now Doubtful for USC Game

Tony Romo: Cowboy, Hero To The OnStar-Averse
Ugh. As painful as it is to type these words, especially during this week, it seems appropriate given the circumstances: TONY ROMO IS A GOOD GUY. Fine. Whatever. Great. A story in today's Fort Worth Star Telegram tells the tale of two Cowboys fans named Bill and Sharon White, who were returning from...
Inevitable Trojan Blowout In LA Saturday Night Will Be A Star-Studded Affair
This weekend, I'm actually flying out to see Ohio State attempt to not get completely white-washed out of the Coliseum this Saturday night. (Current line, OSU getting 10.5.

Adam Jones Books His Reservation For Bulletin Boards In St. Louis And Philadelphia In One Shot
When the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night, it's a game that is always entertaining because of how much Philadelphians despise the Cowboys. It's unhealthy, but it's one of those things that Philadelphians are saddled with the second they're spat out of their mother's wom...
Athlete Impersonations Reach a New Low: New York Man Claims to be Kenny Anderson
Michael Anderson has an awful lot of confidence in the basketball knowledge of Long Beach, New York residents to claim that he's Kenny Anderson and expect it to get him somewhere.

This gentleman here is Brian Butcher, 34, of Saratoga, Calif., a former frosh-soph football coach at Los Gatos High School. Butcher was, unfortunately, fired from the post this past spring.

David Hasselhoff Is a Crazy, Wild Arizona Football Fan
Who likes hanging out with his daughter in the student section. With a camera. Really, he does. Allegedly this is because he has at least one daughter attending Arizona. Which makes complete sense.

The College Football Rundown: There Is Never Enough Tebow To Go Around
Chris Fowler summed up the second week of college football when he said on ESPN Gameday: "The fans deserve a better slate of games than these." He was right.
