Wisconsin Football Coach Didn't Know The President Of The United States Was On His Campus

Ohio State's Third-String Quarterback "Ain't Come To Play SCHOOL"
In fairness to Cardale—a well-regarded recruit who has yet to play a down as a freshman—there's plenty of evidence that courses designed for busy athletes are extremely annoying and essentially pointless. The tweet has since been deleted, so classes or not, Jones learned something today....

If Only For A Moment, Lane Kiffin Was Panicked
While USC cruised to a 38-28 win over Utah in Salt Lake City last night—scoring 28 unanswered points along the way—things did not start out smoothly for the Trojans.

Arkansas Coach John L. Smith Realizes He's Actually $40 Million In Debt, Not $25 Million
John L. Smith is even more broke than he initially thought. He first filed for bankruptcy on Sept. 6. In a subsequent filing, on Sept. 19, he reported $25.7 million in liabilities and $1.2 million in assets. You don't have to be a CPA to know that this is a bad cash flow position. But wait, it gets ...

Will The Honey Badger Be Playing For LSU Next Season?
Tyrann Mathieu's suspension from LSU wasn't your average suspension. LSU announced their ruling in a mysterious, intentionally opaque press conference, and their reasons for waving goodbye to their best player were never fully divulged.

Here Is A Baby Doing A Keg Stand
Police are still trying to determine if this is actually a baby doing a keg stand or merely the appearance of a baby doing a keg stand. Either way, it's pretty obvious that this could only happen at an Arizona State University football tailgate....

Michigan State Definitely Eye-Gouged An Ohio State Player During Yesterday's Game

Here's The Catch Of The Day, From The Offensive Explosion That Was Baylor At West Virginia
Ooooh-wheee, that was a good one. It wasn't quite as close as it looked in the end—70-56 until Baylor struck one last time with about three minutes left, whereupon the Mountaineers were able to run the clock down—but it was back-and-forth for most of the game. West Virginia bled the clock partly w...

Steve Spurrier Wants A Columnist Fired And Will Probably Get His Way
Ron Morris, a columnist for The State newspaper in South Carolina, has publicly disagreed with Steve Spurrier before and been publicly rebuked before.

Your College Football Open Thread
Our game of the morning is probably Baylor at West Virginia, though our shame expert (aren't we all, in some sense, shame experts?) told us to be on the lookout for a potential "DOUBLE trap game" in the N.C. State vs. U. of Miami game. Also look out for Penn State at Illinois, because Illinois may h...
