West Virginia Student Mascot Shoots A Bear; Bear Falls Out Of A Tree; Everyone Hollers
According to the YouTube description, this is Jonathan Kimble, the senior who's spending this year as the Mountaineer, WVU's (human) mascot. The costume includes coonskin cap, buckskin jacket, and a usually-unloaded musket. It's black bear season and Kimble proved, at the expense of a bear driven ...
Report: Arkansas Will Hire Wisconsin's Bret Bielema To Be Its Football Coach
Yahoo's Pat Forde was first with the news a few minutes ago that Bret Bielema will be leaving Wisconsin for Arkansas. This follows a bizarre day in which Mike Gundy's and Chris Petersen's names kept getting bounced around. Bielema had gone 68-24 in Madison and coached the Badgers to three consecutiv...

Two Virginia Tech Players Charged With Building, Setting Off Explosive Device [Update]
Walk-ons Josh Trimble and Brian Rody haven't picked a major, but perhaps chemistry would suit them: the two were able to build some sort of explosive device, and set it off in an off-campus apartment last night. Unfortunately, both those things are against the law....
AP: Upstart Regional School Has The Honor Of Playing Notre Dame For A National Title
Yes, there is no higher merriment in college football than making fun of Notre Dame. But let's not overlook the joys of taunting the other side of the BCS championship matchup. If only there had been a giant sphygmomanometer hooked up to the deep Confederacy last night, to record the mass blood-pres...
Nebraska's Kenny Bell Delivered The Best Legal Block In College Football This Season, So Of Course He Was Flagged For It
Last night's Big Ten championship game victory for Wisconsin was a blowout snoozer, complete with malfunctioning t-shirt cannon and with a final score of 70-31. Nebraska did have one highlight play, and they should have had two—this legal, fair block by receiver Kenny Bell ended up being flagged a...
Nebraska Quarterback Taylor Martinez Engineered One Of The Most Outstanding Plays This College Football Season
This year's Big Ten championship game is lacking some shine, what with the best team in the conference going undefeated but being ineligible and another, Penn State, being out of the running for the next several years. But that doesn't mean it's not worth watching, as Nebraska angles to seize its ...

Alabama Barely Beats Georgia For SEC Title, Right To Demolish Irish In National Title Game
Your national title game will be SEC semifinal champion Alabama against Notre Dame, which in a just alternate universe just got piss-pounded by Ohio State in the Big Ten title game and ceded its title game slot to Florida. In this universe, though, Notre Dame spent the afternoon licking its chops as...
Get A Load Of Teddy Bridgewater's Dong In This Game Program From Last Week

Quinton Dial Nearly Decapitated Aaron Murray, Got Away With It
Alabama leads Georgia 10-7 at halftime of the SEC Championship, thanks to a late Crimson Tide field goal that might not have happened if they'd been flagged for this brutal hit on Bulldogs quarterback Aaron Murray. Quinton Dial went after Murray after the QB tossed an interception, blindsiding Mur...
Lache Seastrunk Puts Team On His Back, Scores 76-Yard TD Run Despite Suffering Leg Injury Mid-Play
Baylor running back Lache Seastrunk has been a one-man Motorin' machine this season, and nothing demonstrates his tenacity and rushing ability more than this long touchdown run today against Oklahoma State, two-thirds of which appear to have been completed after Seastrunk injured his leg. (Darren ...
Lee Corso Called Kansas State QB Collin Klein "Calvin" And Chris Fowler Absolutely Lost It
Longtime viewers of ESPN's College GameDay have come to expect the occasional misstatement or malapropism from Lee Corso; the reality is that Coach hasn't been 100% since his 2009 stroke. Today's mistake, though, was funny enough that Chris Fowler broke down on the set Jimmy Fallon-style, taking a...
Your College Football (And Conference Championships) Open Thread
This is the place if you wanna yak about any of the conference championship games or any of the final-week-of-the-regular-season games in leagues wherein the NCAA's byzantine rules prohibit a title game. Something to ponder: the NCAA mandates that leagues only schedule championship games when they ...
ESPN Screwup Lets Viewers Listen In On Jimmy Dykes And Dave O'Brien Talking About The National Anthem Singer's Clothing
In yet another technical blunder that led to inadvertent viewer eavesdropping on ESPN talent, a "live look-in" during ESPN's college basketball coverage last night patched in audio of the upcoming Syracuse-Arkansas game instead of the intended live-action Georgia-USF game. It just so happened that...

Georgetown And Tennessee Missed The Record For Lowest Scoring Game Of The Shot Clock Era By Just Four Points
Ah! So close. Back in 2008, Rick Majerus's St. Louis Billikens scored 20 points (and held George Washington to 49 points, so that was a plus) in their first conference game of the season, meaning the teams combined for 69 during the contest. Last night, Georgetown and Tennessee came perilously near ...
The Child Porn Charges Against Minnesota State Football Coach Todd Hoffner Have Been Dismissed
The prosecution of Minnesota State football coach Todd Hoffner appeared to look like a mistake in October, when Hoffner's attorney released details of an evaluation that determined Hoffner's children were neither abused nor maltreated, and that child protective services would not even need to conduc...
