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

Appreciate Texas Tech's Near-Miracle Game Winner In Slow Motion

We’re not likely to ever match Central Michigan’s 75-yard Bahamas Bowl miracle, but Texas Tech gave it its best shot in an attempt to upset TCU just after the Horned Frogs found their own miraculous reception in the end zone. ...

FanDuel Ads Use Georgia Tech Football Players' Images Without Permission Or Compensation [UPDATE]

Cal Has Always Been Fun, But Now They're Good

As has been custom this season, the California Golden Bears gave up an easy touchdown to their opponents in the first quarter yesterday.

Fresno State Scores Touchdown On Play We Don't Entirely Understand

What you see here is Fresno State’s Jamire Jordan scoring a touchdown to narrow San Jose State’s lead over the Bulldogs. But exactly what play this is, or what it is supposed to look like, we’re completely lost. Is it supposed to be a pass play? Did guys forget to block? Is it a completely broken an...

Utah extended its shocking blowout lead over Oregon 55-13 tonight with a 69-yard punt return that confused fans, Ducks punt coverage team members, and Fox camera operators.

TCU Avoids Embarrassing Texas Tech Loss With Miracle TD Catch

Trevone Boykin found Aaron Green off a ricochet to help the third-ranked TCU Horned Frogs beat Texas Tech 55-52 in the sort of manic game Red Raiders fans have seen in Lubbock for about a decade now. The fourth down play with less than a minute left came and the end of a 53-yard, two-and-a-half minu...

Virginia Tech Punter Makes Save Of The Year

This is an astounding play. Virginia Tech punter A.J. Hughes watches the snap fly far over his head into the end zone, and he manages to not only recover the ball but get a clean punt off that traveled 60 yards on the fly. It kept the Hokies within a touchdown of ECU, and left ESPN’s Mark Neely gras...

Leonard Fournette Is An Unstoppable Force Of Nature

LSU is always supposed to roll Syracuse. They’re an SEC school, ranked in the top 10, with linemen on both sides of the ball that are notably heavier than Syracuse’s.
