Published on: 8th January, 2010
Colt McCoy said there was no physical pain. His throwing arm just went dead after being drilled by Marcel Dareus on the first Texas drive of the BCS Championship game. Surely the Longhorns senior quarterback would have welcomed the pain, gladly substituted it for the emotional turmoil of watching his national ...Iowa Made 2010 Big Ten Favorite Over Ohio State Following Orange Bowl
Published on: 6th January, 2010
The king wears the crown until someone knocks it off his head; I get it. And yes, I saw the same Rose Bowl you did. Ohio State represented the Big Ten, not Iowa, and did so admirably. The Buckeyes are now five-time defending champions in the Midwest, and despite the fact that ...Iowa’s Orange Bowl Win Over Georgia Tech: Solution to Notre Dame Defensive Woes
Published on: 6th January, 2010
It was only a single brief cutaway, a handful of seconds in a nearly four hour Orange Bowl broadcast. But I wonder if Notre Dame football fans recognized a familiar face, and perhaps a solution to the program's defensive woes, on the Iowa sideline. His name is Rick Kaczenski, and in my ...BCS National Championship: History Heavily Favors Texas over Alabama
Published on: 4th January, 2010
They say history doesn't wear a helmet. Actually, I've never heard anyone say that. So hopefully, I just coined a phrase.

The Longhorns own a 7-0-1 record against Alabama, one ...Urban Meyer Stepping Down: Florida Will Call Bob Stoops First

In January of 2001, the stars aligned but the timing wasn't right. Bob Stoops had just won a BCS title with Oklahoma, in the state of Florida, over Gators' rival Florida State. Meanwhile, Steve Spurrier was stepping down in Gainesville. Young, energetic, with ties to the university, and newly-proven as a major college ...Breaking News: Urban Meyer Steps Down at Florida, But Why? And What’s Next?

Not a day goes by when someone on this site doesn't indict the system to rave reviews and a groundswell of support. Every sports talk radio host from Baton Rouge to Boise has tied unnamed university presidents to the playoff whipping post and lashed out on behalf of phone line-jamming ...Top 25 RBs in College Football for 2010: Why Mark Ingram Doesn’t Top the List
Published on: 23rd December, 2009
What's the best thing about the current three-year trend of giving the Heisman to a sophomore? They have to stay in school as juniors. Well, technically redshirt sophomore Sam Bradford didn't. But Tim Tebow did. And so does Alabama's Mark Ingram, who in my estimation was the second-best running back in ...Jake Locker Leads 2010’s Top 25 Returning College Quarterbacks
Published on: 16th December, 2009
We've been treated to Tebow, McCoy, Bradford (kind of). And in some ways, the trio of signal callers have lulled us to sleep with their cadence. Who are the best amateur quarterbacks? Tebow, McCoy and Bradford, of course. And when OU's Heisman Trophy-winner was toppled, Jimmy Clausen slid nicely into ...Catholics on Cable: How Comcast, NBC Merger Impacts Notre Dame Football
