Beware The NDSU Bison

Derek Jeter > Daniel LaRusso?
Yesterday's Derek Jeter post got me a little nostalgic for the greatest teenage karate movie ever made, and I wasn't really sure why. Until just now....

She's Like The Biff From The Future!
We know this story's from a couple of weeks ago, but we're still rather entranced about it: The mother of a recent Kentucky Wildcats basketball recruit is a real, live prophet....

Meet Eric "Whizzer" Schnupp
The man you see here is Eric Schnupp, the offensive line coach for the Baylor Bears. Saturday afternoon was a rough one for Schnupp and his team; they lost 58-10 to undefeated Kansas. Fortunately, Schnupp was unfazed by the shellacking and found a way to inspire his troops....

NCAA Blogdome: Wildcat ... Wild ... Cat... Pow
As much as I'd like to discuss yesterday's crazy college game, I fear I wouldn't do it any justice. I just can't get into the college athletics like you die-hards do. I blame my Canadianess. And my mom. But hey, let's see what the Internets are saying about Kentucky's 43-37 triple-overtime win over ...

Get Hammered With Lou Holtz
We're still rather amazed by Lou Holtz's magic trick, so perhaps that's clouding our judgment, but we're really starting to fall in love with Holtz's weekly "pep talks."

It's Scary Down There In Baton Rouge
Last weekend, the genius that is Orson Swindle at Every Day Should Be Saturday attended the Florida-LSU game in Baton Rouge. We've never been to an SEC football game, but, man, do we want to now.
