Michigan's Problem Isn't Commercialism; Michigan's Problem Is It Stinks
Recently, I've been reading about Michigan's attendance woes (which only really count as "woes" if you consider a college selling out 95 percent of a 100,000-seat stadium at $75+, plus an unspecified donation per ticket, woeful), and it occurs to me that lay people and economists think very differen...
Michigan Head Coach Brady Hoke: "I Don't Make Decisions On Who Plays"
Brady Hoke deflected criticism about the handling of dazed quarterback Shane Morris Saturday during his weekly press conference today, claiming the Michigan head coach doesn't "make decisions on who plays, who doesn't play." When asked if Morris—who took a nasty, and illegal, shot to the head but wa...
Man Dropped With Single Punch In Brawl At Notre Dame-Syracuse Game

It took awhile for us to find good video of this streaker from last night's MTSU-Old Dominion game, but it was worth the wait.

Razorbacks Punter Shows SEC Speed In Scoring On Fake Punt

Officials Botch Blocked Punt In UTEP-KSU, Spend 12 Minutes Not Fixing
This is one of the more bizarre plays you'll see today. Kansas State blocked its second UTEP punt of the first quarter, only to see the entire play called back due to an inadvertent whistle. And it took 12 minutes—12 minutes!—for officials to realize and then verify that they screwed up....
Today's College Football Viewing Schedule
Recommended games are bolded, and today, those are few and far between. I feel like I've even been generous with my bolding.

Texas head coach Charlie Strong has dismissed nine players from his team so far this year, leading most of the football-viewing public to wonder what the fuck is going on at Texas.

The SEC Really Does Get The Best Players
This weekend, college football's conference play begins in earnest. Fans love to talk trash about which conference would thrash which other conferences, and which have the most talent, or are the most successful, or would, if presented the opportunity, perpetrate the most egregious anatomical imposs...
