Former Paterno Assistant Indicted On Charges Of "Involuntary Deviate Sexual Intercourse," Among Other Things

Service Academy Football Rivalries Are Just As Good For Dick Jokes
According to the Cadet Third Class (that's Air Force for 'sophomore'!) who sent this along, a big wank-y banner has been hung in the Air Force Academy's dining hall ahead of tomorrow's big Army game. Is this the type of young men we want waging our wars in the future? Deadspin says: god yes....
America Likes LSU Tomorrow; Vegas Doesn't

ESPN's College GameDay Is Starting Early In Tuscaloosa—And So Are The Students

Northern Illinois Linebacker Suspended For Sacking Opposing Band Member
When you're on a defense that gives up 60 points in regulation, that's reason enough to be suspended.

John Brown University Basketball Fans Wasted A Ton Of Toilet Paper Last Night, And It Looked Glorious

There Is No D In Toledo: Here's All 123 Points From Last Night's MAC Matchup In 123 Seconds

And they'll be doing so, it turns out, in camouflage jerseys that...
Here's West Virginia's Lawsuit Against The Big East, Which Is "No Longer A Viable And Competitive Football Conference"
On Friday, West Virginia announced that they're heading to the Big 12, which was a poorly kept secret.

T...
A Very Thirsty And Very Sweaty Gary Patterson Has A Personal Liquid-And-Towel Valet
Avid mid-major college football watchers (yes, we exist) have noticed this for awhile, and YouTuber wtem980 has been so kind as to compile this video of the young lady whose task it is to be at TCU head coach Gary Patterson's side at all times to supply him with hydration (I assume it's water, bu...
The Sad Saga Of A College Football Player Who Didn't Understand How Twitter Works
Elon senior RB Jamal Shuman is frustrated. The Phoenix lost 48-28 Saturday to Wofford, and Shuman only factored in one play—a five-yard pass reception. So he did what anyone would do in that situation, and vented on Twitter....
