The Beard Is Too Mighty For Facemasks
That's San Francisco Giants closer and Taco Bell spokespimp Brian Wilson in full LSU regalia as College GameDay's guest game-picker this morning. Lee Corso got into the beard act as well. It goes without saying his appearance in such costuming did not go over well with the crowd outside Bryant-Denny...

We've been monitoring Occupy Tebow all week, but the basic and most important element is that the statement features "Greater Than." Leave it up to Bama fans get it wrong....
Cow Costume-Clad Character Continues Clowning Around College GameDay, Also There's Pot & Rape Jokes
Crowds outside Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa have been growing since ESPN set up its College GameDay camp early in preparation of Saturday night's matchup between #1 LSU and #2 Alabama. As the masses surrounding the set have swelled, they've also grown sillier and in some cases stupider. Our C...
Eighth Grade Is For Kids: Scouting America's Top-Ranked 15-Year-Old Basketball Stars
It's a Sunday in October, and Baruch College in Gramercy is hosting campus tours. In the basement lobby just off of the main gym, high school students and their parents, sometimes trailing younger siblings, walk through, following a college student who's walking backwards. Should they come to Baruch...
ESPN's College GameDay Is Starting Early In Tuscaloosa—And So Are The Students
College GameDay has made the rare trip to the location of a non-ESPN television game, though it would be ridiculous for them to be anywhere but Tuscaloosa for Saturday night's match between #1 LSU and #2 Alabama (on CBS). The game's drawn such national attention that the GameDay crew made the trip ...

The Texas Rangers Are Not World Champions, Thanks To David Freese

Meet Sgt. Stripes, One Very Unsettling Bowl Mascot
Let me tell you about the worst football game I've ever been to: it was Temple vs UCLA at RFK Stadium, in the 2009 EagleBank Bowl (the forerunner to the Military Bowl). It was well below freezing, it was windy, the stadium was empty, there were rats in the bathroom, my team lost, and I actually paid...
Tony La Russa Brian Billick Appeared On A Game Show Roughly 30 34 Years Ago, And Nobody Knew Who He Was
Up until a few weeks before this 1977 appearance on The Match Game, awesomely-jacketed Brian Billick "was playing professional football." The coaches didn't think he was "quite the caliber" that a professional football player should be, though, which is why he still haunts us from the broadcast bo...
"Radiohead Wouldn't Play In The Big East Either": Occupy Wall Street Has An "Occupy Herbstreit" Photobomber
A brilliant human has launched a Tumblr called "Occupy Herbstreit," which features photos of an anonymous photobomber among the protesters in lower Manhattan, holding College GameDay-inspired signs overhead. Here's a sampling....
Some Folks Play Dice For Money On The Subway Near The Pentagon
Tipster Cyrus the Virus was kind enough to record and send in some video he captured of a subway floor dice game last night. Unfortunately, he put the camera down before one player broke every rule that Ashy Larry has ever championed by making a scene when the dice fell wrong....
