The college football establishment continues to figure out how to make things worse. Let's replace meaningless Conference Championship games that at least have good teams playing with a bunch of blowout games for the right to get blown out again the next week. The answer has always been to...

Be careful. Those tickets are in the Syracuse student section.

Isn't that what the visitor's locker room is for?

You are correct. I see a scheme to get a man open and the QB overthrew him.

If having a bunch of brown kids wearing cowboy hats and screaming at a football game isn't evidence of proper assimulation into American culture, I don't what else would count.

The Rocket ran a 10.63 100 meters in the state championship as a senior in high school. Everyone already knew he was fast.

Just a reminder that our leading receiver/captain was a walk-on. Sometimes coach's evals miss. I hope he has a great career while USC is going 0-12.

Truth about D1 athletes. It is 70% genetics, 20% work ethic of the kid and 10% skill development. You can't teach big and fast.

I always thought the best thing for kids until 7th grade would be a sports league where the teams stay together but they change sports every three months or so. Maybe football or soccer in the fall, basketball until January, wrestling until spring, soccer or lacrosse in the spring, baseball in...

Funny. NSFW

Best case scenario for 24 teams: Week 1 (Dec 5) replaces Conf Champ week with teams 9-24 playing on campus games. At least these games will matter, unlike the current conf championships. This will be ripe for upsets too as that group will be more evenly matched. Week 2 one week later (Dec 12)...

Playoff teams highlighted. They all were from the lower half of strength of schedules for the SEC.

I was one of them. The Spanish language announcers just seem more excited to be there. Even if you don't understand everything they say, it just seems more compelling.

The problem soccer in the US has is that if Erling Haaland grew up here, he'd be playing tight end. Strikers with 4.3 speed that are over 5'10" will be playing cornerback. We get great soccer athletes, but not the cream of the crop and we never will.

Trey Lance?
