Tennessee's Arian Foster Refuses Interview Requests Unless You Speak Pterodactyl
Sigh. The Vols are in the process of preparing for their road game at Georgia. A game that CBS had the misfortune of selecting. At least Jonathan Crompton isn't starting at quarterback for the Vols. You get the feeling that CBS' Gary Danielson might have refused to call another game quarterbacked b...

College Football Roundup: Chase Daniel and Warren Buffett Are Boyzzz
The most shocking image of the college football weekend occurred in the second half of Missouri-Nebraska. And it had nothing to do with the fact that Missouri hung 52 on Nebraska before the third quarter ended. It was finding out that Missouri’s chubby and short quarterback who will win the Heisman...

Pryor and Beanie Get It Done
It was a close one, but Terrelle Pryor's last minute touchdown run was just what was needed to put Ohio State over the top in last night's 20-17 win over Wisconsin. Beanie Wells' looked to be in great form as well with 168 yards rushing and a touchdown of his own. If Pryor and Wells can stay healthy...

College Football Brings The Heat Tonight
And so closes another day here at Deadpsin. There are three college match-ups as well as MLB Playoffs, some boxing and MMA to round out your evening. For those of you sticking with the college offerings, here are some game notes: • No. 14 Ohio State at No. 18 Wisconsin, 8pm ET on ABC (Regional): I d...

Hugh Johnson Heads to Tuscaloosa
Listen young lady, I don't know how they do things down in Lexington, but we at the Hugh Johnson Project don't really "do" dick jokes. What's that you say? It is just one big dick joke? Well alright then, please gather up some like-minded friends and join us after the jump....

Spartan Football Gets Hugh Excited
Michigan State is looking to move to 2-0 in the Big Ten, and they're looking good while doing it. The Spartans are holding off the Iowa Hawkeyes by a score of 16-13 in the fourth quarter. BC and NC State have slowed down a bit, and the Eagles lead 28-17 on the strength of Chris Crane's 319 yards th...

Uncorking The Hugh Johnson Project
Another weekend of college football has begun, but for once we'll have to make due without the play-by-play brilliance of Pam Ward. Everyone's favorite Hugh Johnson punching bag is off covering the WNBA Finals so this week you'll have to settle for her substitute saying the most ridiculous things i...

Trash Talk, Viral Outbreaks, and Gameday at Vandy
With the trash talking already underway, today is shaping up to be a exciting entertaining crappy day of college football. Take your survival guide if you're headed out to the Ohio State/Wisconsin game. Cancellation of the day is Georgetown at Colgate. A norovirus outbreak at Georgetown has forced t...

Stanford Lineman Does Not Like Notre Dame
About the only thing that would make Saturday's Stanford-Notre Dame football game actually compelling is if Charlie Weis and the Stanford Tree fought at midfield with rakes and blowtorches. But knowing that would never happen (the Tree is usually soaked with alcohol and cannot be near open flame), C...

College Football Preview: Y'all Better Recognize Joe Pa Wants His Daps, Yo
The eyes of the college football world shift to Nashville, Tennessee this weekend where the mighty Vanderbilt Commodores will be hosting Auburn. This is a huge game for Vandy. The last time they beat Auburn was 1955, the same year that Rosa Parks instituted her bus boycott in Montgomery. Yep, black ...

Thursday Night Football Previews: Pitt at South Florida; Oregon State at Utah
Thursday night college football arrives with a televised double-header. ESPN brings us Pittsburgh at South Florida and something called the Versus Network brings us Oregon State at Utah. Like me you have no idea if you have actually have Versus and if demanded on pain of death to give ten guesses a...

The Ron Zook Water Skiing Zapruder Film
So The Big Ten Network has this reality show about the Illinois football team called "The Journey." Even though this is a "Hard Knocks" type series — albeit one with decidedly worse production values and dramatically more nondescript players — about my alma mater's football team, I have never seen ...

Middle Tennessee State University Owns the Hail Mary
For about 59 minutes and 56 seconds it appeared that MTSU's blackout was going to be as successful as Georgia's. Then, in final four seconds, MTSU's Joe Craddock lifted a pass and the blackout took over. That's the only explanation for what Florida Atlantic's defensive backs were doing on the fin...

Gators Now Answering To A Higher Power
Florida suffered its first loss of the season on Saturday, and Christ — who apparently had a few sheckles on the outcome — is not amused. So he distpatched Eric Brown, the 31-year-old minister at Gainesville's Campus Church of Christ, to keep Tim Tebow out of trouble for the next few weeks. Brown, a...

College Football Roundup Week 5: The Saga of Destroyed College Gameday Signs
Each week more signs appear behind the stage at ESPN's College Gameday. Some are original and funny (Knowshon Crossing sign with his leaping outline), some are entirely inside jokes (let's make a sign with our friend's name on it and hold it up for three hours early in the morning), and some are de...

Kentucky Football Player Charged with Stalking, Poor Use of Movie Quotes
Junior strong safety Ashton Cobb was not in the line up on Saturday for Kentucky's game against rival Western Kentucky. It wasn't your typical football injury that kept Cobb off the field but rather an arrest and subsequent suspension from the university. Cobb has been charged with "second-degree st...

Derrick Williams Does It Three Ways
With Ohio State having what seems to be an off year, Joe Paterno's Penn State squad has a legit chance to bring a Big Ten Championship to Happy Valley. Wide Receiver and kick returner extraordinaire Derrick Williams scored a touchdown rushing, receiving, and on a punt return against the Illini — som...

'We Beat Georgia By This Much' And Other Games
No. 8 Alabama 41, No. 3 Georgia 30. The Crimson Tide continue to impress in national primetime. Last night, they dispatched of their second Top-10-ranked opponent this season, with neither game being played at home. Georgia's choice of shrubberies and uniform color proved to be moot as Alabama ran u...

One Of Your Winners Tonight Could Be No. 1 Next Week
Going into tonight, the day's schedule of games appeared really ass-heavy with all of the big ranked-vs-ranked matchups scheduled to play out in prime time. But with the exciting finish of UNC-Miami, the Ole Miss upset over Florida, and now with Michigan coming from behind to stun Wisconsin, the lat...

Hugh 3: Updating The Late Games
No. 9 Wisconsin 19, Michigan 0. Great play in the first half from Wisconsin on fourth-and-short where the punter ran up under center and used a hard count to draw Michigan offside to keep the Badgers' drive alive. Bret Bielema might be the most creative coach in America. And Michigan still sucks. Co...
