Alabama Fan Throws Cup At Crowd, Is Promptly Taken Out

TCU Runs Trick Kick Return, Screws It Up With Stupid Penalty

Lou Holtz Doesn't Know What Ameer Abdullah's Name Is
Nebraska running back Ameer Abdullah is among a short list of players worthy of early-season Heisman talk, but ESPN college football analyst and race-baiter advocate Lou Holtz doesn't even know the Cornhuskers star's name—inserting, instead, something we're sure he finds appropriately "Ay-rabbic."...
