Rutgers Loses Mind, Spikes Ball On Fourth Down
Hapless Rutgers somehow found themselves with a shot to tie up fourth-ranked Michigan State and force overtime in New Jersey. But that shot was wasted when confusion reigned and quarterback Chris Laviano spiked the ball instead of organizing a hail mary attempt. It’s as if for 59 minutes and 50 seco...
Matt Millen Has Some Strong Opinions On Targeting
Northwestern’s Matthew Harris got called for targeting on this tackle on Michigan QB Jake Rudock. Harris was initially ejected, but the call was rescinded. Matt Millen was on the call and he asserted that were he to target, you’d know it:...
ESPNers Bomani Jones And Danny Kanell Got Into A Twitter Fight
ESPN does not like when its personalities publicly call each other out. That is exactly what Bomani Jones did today to College Football analyst Danny Kanell. These burns seem more severe than the usual stuff that gets ESPNers in trouble, like when Keith Law got suspended for defending evolution. Her...
Texas Avenges Their Sick Bovine Mascot, Shocks Oklahoma
The run-in to this week’s rivalry game against Oklahoma did not go well for Texas. First, Charlie Strong called social media “the downfall of society” in response to Kris Boyd tweeting about transferring during halftime. Then, his team kind of proved him right and got into some public squabbling abo...
Nick Chubb Knocked Out Of Game With Horrific Knee Injury [WARNING]
Georgia running back Nick Chubb, who last year established himself as one of the nation’s best rushers, left today’s game against Tennessee in the first quarter after suffering a gruesome hyperextension of the left knee. ...
WKU Accidentally Recovers Onside Kick
Western Kentucky’s putting a real beatdown on MTSU today, and things got even worse for the Blue Raiders when the Hilltoppers’ attempt at a squib kick ended up in WKU hands. We’re mostly surprised this sort of thing doesn’t happen more often....
410-Pound Baylor Tight End Has Great Moves, Catches Touchdown Pass
LaQuan McGowan is a 6’7”, 410 pound tight end for Baylor. That’s impressive enough, but consider the move he puts on a Kansas defender here to find the end zone and give the Bears a 38-7 second quarter lead....
Police: UCLA Punter Arrested On Suspicion Of Rape
A UCLA punter has been accused of raping another student last year at an off-campus house party, Los Angeles police said today. ...
Keegan-Michael Key Dresses Up As James Franklin, Surprises Penn State Football Team
Penn State alumnus and comedian Keegan-Michael Key returned to campus for homecoming week, and he pretended to be head coach James Franklin for the football team’s meeting. The players loved it, particularly when Key imitated Franklin’s handshake....
Report: Auburn Receiver Duke Williams Went On A Punching Rampage
Auburn Tigers head coach Gus Malzahn announced yesterday that he had dismissed wide receiver D’haquille “Duke” Williams from the team. Malzahn didn’t get into the specifics of why Williams was dismissed, but it might have had something to do with an alleged rampage that Williams went on at a local b...
Myles Jack Will Be Just Fine
Two weeks after a season-ending injury, UCLA junior linebacker Myles Jack has announced his withdrawal from school and his intention to enter next spring’s NFL draft. And because of an insurance policy he took out on his health after his breakout freshman year, it’s a win-win proposition for him....
Arizona State Reminds Fans: We Don't Trust You To Not Use Blackface, So Please Don't Paint Your Faces
Arizona State football will hold its annual blackout game against Colorado this Saturday, so students and fans will dress in all black and throw off the opponent because a stadium full of fans wearing the same thing always rattles opponents who can’t handle color coordination. The university’s preem...
The Hell Are You Doing, ESPN?
ESPN’s broadcast on ABC tonight of Clemson’s home win over Notre Dame featured an inadvertent cutaway to SportsCenter anchors, playing on their iPads, unaware that for an uncomfortably long time they were being broadcast live instead of an emotional post-game interview with Tigers coach Dabo Swinney...
UCLA's Kicker Inadvertently Tackling A Guy With His Helmet, In Extreme Slow Motion
UCLA kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn got blown up while serving as the Bruins’ last chance to stop a Tim White kick return. But Arizona State didn’t take the kick to the house, because Fairbairn’s helmet brought White down. It’s Pac-12 after dark, at least on the east coast....
Washington State Tries Fake Punt, Gives Up Touchdown Instead
Washington State’s still holding onto a narrow lead over 24th-ranked Cal today, but this thoroughly ruined fake punt put the Bears back in the game. We don’t blame the Cougars for trying the fake—4th and 1 at midfield is prime time to go for it, really—but punters are not running backs....
Foul-Mouthed Indiana Heckler Profane, Repetitive
Fans watching today’s Ohio State-Indiana game couldn’t help but notice a foul-mouthed heckler standing near one of ESPN’s crowd microphones. He carried on for several minutes in this profane fashion, though he really should work on finding some new material....
Texas Player Tweets About Transferring During Halftime Of Blowout
TCU is currently sleepwalking through the second half of a seismic blowout over Texas in Fort Worth. Texas, despite almost scoring an upset against Oklahoma State last weekend, is at a true low point. It’s not entirely (or even mostly) coach Charlie Strong’s fault, but he is feeling the heat after a...

<i>College GameDay</i> At Clemson A Chance To Get Messy
The eastern seaboard is a bit wet this morning, which provided the ideal opportunity for this lanky bro to belly-flop into a mud pit. It’s Clemsoning, visualized!...
