Here Is A Sad Gallery Of Sad, Sad Michigan Fans
Michigan got its ass handed to it by Minnesota today in front of a dwindling crowd of people, many of whom got in for free. Here are some of those sad, sad fans....
Razorbacks Punter Shows SEC Speed In Scoring On Fake Punt

Arkansas Player Hit In Face By Errant Pass While Watching Jumbotron
The gigantic video board at Jerry World has claimed another victim: this Arkansas player, who while sitting on the bench was staring up at it while an errant (or, maybe, thrown away) pass headed directly toward his face....
Northwestern CB Matthew Harris Carted Off After Helmet-To-Helmet Hit

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. There are zero games today featuring two ranked teams, and and if you need further evidence of the lackluster nature of today's slate, Syracuse is playing in primetime on ABC....
Get It? Because Michael Sam Is Gay
(Replacing subtle racism with overt homophobia is not progress, South Carolina!)...
The Most Popular Color Combinations In College Football
Here's a relationship chart of the colors of all 128 FBS college football programs, put together by 614 analytics. It serves as a good reminder that some schools have some truly ghastly color combinations. Brown and orange, Bowling Green? ...

Charlie Strong Has Been Drug-Testing The Crap Out Of His Players
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. Thanks to the Austin American Statesman, we seem to have at least a partial answer to that question. The players are ge...
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...
Man, Is ESPN Gonna Be Surprised When Nobody Shows Up For <em>GameDay</em>
(That's Tillman Hall, on the campus of Clemson University, which is not the University of South Carolina and is not in Columbia.)...
MSU's Dillon Day Suspended For Stomping Shit Out Of Two LSU Players
Per Brett McMurphy, the SEC has suspended Mississippi State senior center Dillon Day for one game for "multiple flagrant and unsportsmanlike acts," after he performed flying stomps to the guts and groin areas of two LSU players on Saturday....
Former Player Sues USC And Lane Kiffin
Brian Baucham, who played cornerback from the Trojans from 2008-2012, filed suit yesterday against USC and then-coach Lane Kiffin, alleging they forced him to play in a game when he was already ill, causing him to suffer "cardiopulmonary damage, as well as brain injury with neurocognitive deficits."...
Michigan Pretends It Isn't Desperate To Give Away Tickets
I won't make fun of Michigan football for practically giving away tickets to keep its 100,000-plus attendance streak alive. The team's crummy, Saturday's opponent is Minnesota, and even a storied program has to hustle sometimes. But I will make fun of Michigan football for being so sensitive that it...
ESPN Showed Jameis Winston Onscreen 48 Times During FSU-Clemson
Viewers of last night's Clemson-Florida State overtime thriller couldn't help but notice how often ESPN's broadcast on ABC showed suspended FSU quarterback Jameis Winston. Indeed, after every big play it felt like the cameras went to Winston to see the Heisman Trophy-winner's reaction. But how much ...
Arizona Hail Mary Beats Cal
Arizona erased a 22-point second-half deficit to stun Cal in Tucson tonight with a 47-yard Hail Mary from Anu Solomon to Austin Hill at the final gun....
