Pat White Has A Special Friend
West Virginia quarterback Pat White would seem like the guy who has everything. NFL-ready talent — we guess — a spot on one of college football's best team and, you know, he's kind of handsome, if you're into that sort of thing. But the guy just wants more....
Yes, In Fact, It IS Tebow Time
Dan Shanoff writes a weekly college football column for Deadspin. Email him to let him know what you think....
Mike Gundy Lectures The Oklahoman Newspaper
Via Sports By Brooks, here's video of Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy absolutely losing his shit on the media following Saturday night's 49-45 win over Texas Tech....
Orange! Orange! Orange!
Did you know just 1% of Yahoo! College Pick'em users chose Syracuse to win today's game? I tell you, that Leo Rautins is one loyal son of a bitch!...
Charlie Weis Is In Your (Very) Extended Network
If you're only going to read one thing today, this is it: Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis' "MySpace" page. It's gold, Jerry! Gold!...
Maj's Bets O' The Week
Amateur athletics and gambling go together like Will and black fabric. Which is why I asked the Paul to my Mary, Unsilent Majority, to share more of his college football gambling wisdom with us here today. Obvious disclaimer: this shit could be wrong. Horribly, horribly wrong. But hey, good luck! Ta...
Seemingly, No One Drinks In Wisconsin
Nothing's more fun than college football in the fall. Tailgating, commiserating with friends, cheering on the local team, general camaraderie all around. And, of course, drinking: What's football without a cold brewski or two beforehand. It clears the lungs. Clearly, the folks in Madison understand ...
How To Stoke An In-State Rivalry
As Peter King can tell you, when you're a public figure, sometimes people poke a little fun at your family (especially if you, you know, talk about them all the time.) But Oklahoma baseball coach Sunny Golloway is probably an innocent bystander here, as much as anyone whose daughter poses in Playboy...
It's Open Season On Charlie Weis
The Charlie Weis / Notre Dame pile-on continues, gloriously. Some of it is justified, like criticism of how the school has handled the Demetrius Jones situation. (They're making him pay for school at Northern Illinois this year by not releasing him from his scholarship.) And some of it is really jus...
And With One Torch, A Child's Dreams Are Lost
Nothing's funnier than hearing a child scream "Nooooooo!" This guy's gonna make a great quarterback's dad someday....
Carr Surely Has Lots To Contribute In This Friendship
We're still a little bewildered by the fact that Russell Crowe was on the sidelines for Michigan's win over Notre Dame on Saturday. We don't understand why he cares so much about American collegiate football, first off, but mostly ... this guy is really friends with Lloyd Carr?...
Some Thirsty Folks In Central Florida
A key for fans at any college football game is to stay properly hydrated. It's not like they sell beer there or anything, which means you have to sneak in a flask, and when you're drinking that much absinthe, you're gonna need some water. Unfortunately, the new Central Florida stadium forgot about t...
Rob Stone Knows How To Liven Up A Broadcast
All told, we find this rather clever — and, to be honest, we've been enjoying the Women's World Cup considerably more than we would enjoy a Troy-Oklahoma State game — and we pretty much enjoy everything Stone does. (We had no idea sideline reporters could be funny; isn't that against the rules?) Tho...
Here's Your Playoff System (Sort Of)

Roll Over And Die Like A Champion
We're not sure if we can contribute that much more to the pile-on that has become discussion of the 2007 Notre Dame Fighting Irish and coach Charlie Weis ... but we're gonna try....
Saturday Night Football Live From Somewhere
I have no idea how you guys watch all of this college football action AND the NFL. Seriously. My retinas are shot and my back is effin' killing me. And it's only Saturday! Gah! You guys must be machines! (Well, that, or really, really fat.)...
