The Tennessee Volunteers haven’t exactly been world-beaters during the era of Butch Jones. The head coach likely knows this. It is maybe why — or, at least, partially why — Butch Jones went absolutely bonkers at a press conference. Please note: He did the entire “fake news” bit, lashed out on the media in general, […]

The Florida Gators want to fix its sometimes inept offense. How it apparently attempts to go about it is interesting. The team has made a change at quarterback, as Luke Del Rio replaces Feleipe Franks as Florida’s starting gunslinger heading into a game against Vanderbilt. Florida coach Jim McElwain told Paul Finebaum on Monday morning that Luke Del Rio will be […]

The Kentucky Wildcats have one of the most passionate fan bases in the country. Oh, and its football fan base is pretty fine, too. Off to a 3-1 start on the season, Big Blue Nation has some real reason to cheer. However, over the weekend, a Kentucky cheerleader apparently had reason to go bonkers after […]

At least the Kentucky Wildcats are really good at basketball. That is a video by SEC Shorts (who you should follow on YouTube). In it, Kentucky hires an archaeologist to find evidence of the program’s last victory over the Florida Gators. For those unaware, while Big Blue Nation is known for its wonderful basketball program, […]

In what is some of the weirder news coming out of Happy Valley this weekend, Penn State coach James Franklin claims he is not comedian Keegan-Michael Key. Wait… there’s some context to why this is a thing. And no, it isn’t as awful as you likely presumed it to be. Notable New York radio gasbag Mike […]

The SEC admits to making a mistake during the Texas A&M game over the weekend. The specific play that happened to be questionable was when Aggies quarterback Kellen Mond appeared to score a touchdown, but an official instead called him out-of-bonds. Here is a video of the play itself: rumble young man rumble pic.twitter.com/0IX21eFyIK — […]

The latest AP Poll is back with more vengeance than Bruce Willis in a Die Hard movie. Unlike Bruce making far too many sequels for the franchise to put out quality work, South Florida is one of a few teams climbing up the rankings. Let’s get the semantics out of the way first. No. I […]

The Florida State Seminoles have as many collegiate wins as you and I do. There’s a pretty big problem with that, as neither of us participate in the actual sport. Alas, through two games, Jimbo Fisher and company are 0-2. Asking if Jimbo Fisher is in trouble after the start is bluh. Wanting a coach […]

Alright there, readers. It is time we get to know each other. The best way we can do this, save for having a conversation (gross), is probably finding out who you guys believe to be the best quarterback in all of college football. This is by no means a scientific poll. We only have a […]

Penn State somehow managed to defeat Iowa despite the Hawkeyes playing the role of the better team for most of the game. How exactly did this all happen? A walk-off touchdown sure as hell helped. Before discussing the game, let’s look at the walk-off TD together: Just amazing pic.twitter.com/EkKWLaAo4Z — Jack Crosby (@JCrosbyCBS) September 24, […]

The Missouri Tigers football program is not exactly all that and a bag of chips. According to head coach Barry Odom, however, the lack of success is temporary. He claims winning is on its way. Here is Barry Odom following Missouri getting drubbed by the Auburn Tigers on Saturday. “Let’s talk real life and where […]

Michigan Wolverines coach Jim Harbaugh is a lot of a things. A good football coach, a lover of Judge Judy, and a guy who isn’t afraid to speak his mind when it comes to polarizing topics. Oh. Hello there, Donald Trump. Jim Harbaugh had some stern advice for the 45th President of the United States […]

Oklahoma Sooners gunslinger Baker Mayfield is the gift that keeps on giving. Also, apparently, he is Baylor’s biological father. Yup. Let’s get this started properly. Here is video of him telling the Bears that he is indeed their father. Baker Mayfield to Baylor players pregame: "You forgot who daddy is. I’m gonna have to spank […]

There’s savvy shopping, then there’s taking a risk for a potential large payoff down the road. For a USC Trojans fan on Saturday, he fell somewhere in the middle. Although, if we’re being honest at the risk of being a jerk, there’s no real actual payoff to this. A fan was caught displaying a Sam […]

When people have success, they sometimes do stuff on a whim. Fathers buy their kids new pets after getting promoted at work. Some treat his friends to rounds of alcohol after learning they passed the board exams. Most of the time, these whims come with good intentions attached to them. For NC State Wolfpack defensive […]

A squirrel scored a touchdown on Saturday as the announcers called the play with the sort of passion Jim Ross would be jealous of. And here’s to ledes I never believed would be written. On Saturday, during Louisville facing Kent State, the Cardinals were up 21-0. Then, as they say, a squirrel just had to […]

Ohio State Buckeyes gunslinger JT Barrett was coming under a lot of fire this week. Some, the uneducated, believed it to be time for Urban Meyer to bench the electric talent. Those people are dopes. Anyway, here is JT Barrett dropping a dime during Ohio State’s game against UNLV on Saturday: Nice. pic.twitter.com/7IyLfzNxyC — Tony […]

Lee Corso has taken his gimmick to the next level. On Saturday, while ESPN College Gameday was trotting about Times Square, our mascot-decapitator friend decided it was time to don the gear worn by Lady Liberty herself. That’s right, Uncle Lee Corso became — magically — the Statue of Liberty. Again, the Statue of Liberty. […]

The UCF Knights are taking its brand of football to space! Or, uh, something like that. The university has announced that it will have a Space Game in honor of the university’s long-time ties to the United States space program. The Oct. 14 Homecoming game vs. East Carolina will now feature many connections to the space […]

What were you doing at the wonderful age of 17? You were unlikely starting at quarterback for Old Dominion as they entered a game against Virginia Tech on Saturday. That much, I feel pretty confident in making a blanket statement about. Steven Williams is a quarterback who played in the second half last weekend. He performed […]

After helping the Los Angeles Rams take down the San Francisco 49ers in a rare thriller on a Thursday night NFL game, former California Golden Bears quarterback Jared Goff made an appearance on ESPN’s SportsCenter to talk about his performance. Goff passed for 292 yards and three touchdowns without an interception on 22 of 28 […]

The Mississippi State Bulldogs will do battle with the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday. We are here to help give you information. What kind? The sort in which you will now have the betting odds for the event, as well as the TV schedule and live stream information. Let’s get those semantics out of the way […]

The mean streets of Twitter are not for everyone. Kevin Durant recently learned this, as he was busted for using fake accounts to defend himself. Josh Allen didn’t need to learn it, as he took a more preemptive strike. If you’re unaware of that entire Durant situation: Our unicorn of a basketball player, the likely […]

Some Big 12 action is going to hit the nation’s picture-box this weekend, as the TCU Horned Frogs are set to do battle with the Oklahoma State Cowboys. It is exciting times for both programs, as they are each attempting to continue with already solid starts to the season. Anyway, you are likely here because […]

Paul Finebaum is something to behold. I don’t know for what reason or purpose, but people seem to really like the guy. Who am I to blame them? Anyway, the man with a radio show known to tout the SEC as the best thing since sliced-bread, is now changing his tune. Well, just a little […]

No one wants to be blamed for anything Kevin Sumlin related, apparently. Former Texas A&M athletic director Eric Hyman is attempting like all hell to wash his hands of Sumlin’s contract extension. You know, the one that happened on his watch. He told Mac Engel of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that he almost had zero things to do with the […]

Kansas State fans likely feel as though they have reason to be upset this week. During the team’s against Vanderbilt, a touchdown was called back by the officials. As it currently sits, the SEC and Big 12 comment that they will make no comments regarding the review of the play. Let’s get the semantics out […]

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have an abundance of money. How do we know this? Easy. The university will spend over a million real-life dollars to buy a game with Western Michigan. That’s right. According to people who do the entire buy-game market thing, Western Michigan going to South Bend is valued at $1.175 million. To […]

The NCAA has approved a replacement game for the UCF Knights. The university needed to fill the void on the schedule left in the wake of Hurricane Irma. In fact, the program lost two home games due to the hurricane, one against Georgia Tech and a contest against Maine that was bought out as a […]

Apparently, some people are not too thrilled with Tennessee Volunteers head coach Butch Jones. So much so, a fan decided to make an entire song about him getting fired. Let’s cut through the chase. First thing we will do is leave the lyrics of the song right below this, followed by the actual musical genius […]

Nebraska has fired Athletic Director Shawn Eichors. The news was broken on the mean streets of Twitter by way of Bruce Feldman. Also according to Feldman, the school will look to fill that position immediately. This is coming right off our last check with the program, when Shawn Eichors was going through every emotion possible, even somewhat […]

The Missouri Tigers are apparently already at the point in the season when players decide to take it upon themselves to produce results. According to a report, which you should read in full, the Tigers have already done a players-only meeting. It is not even October. For those unaware, players-only type meetings are usually reserved […]

Washington State football coach Mike Leach is a gift from whatever god(s) you worship. Here is a man who discusses, in length, Big Foot and aliens. Wait … what? Don’t worry. We will circle all the way back to that. As for his latest entry into the world of the weird, it appears Mike Leach […]

Do you young kids even know who Burt Reynolds is? Not just the man, but the myth and legend? Eh, whatever. Here is a video of Burt Reynolds talking about the last game he played for the Florida State Seminoles. To be Camp Crystal Lake clear: I much rather hear him talk about his other […]

Here is to having no idea how to handle this without making jokes. BYU will now be allowing caffeine sodas on campus. End column. I kid! To be serious, this is a shocking announcement by the school. Brigham Young University saying it would begin selling caffeinated sodas on campus is like the Pope saying aliens […]

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will do battle with the Michigan State Spartans on Saturday. Furthermore, the game will be broadcasted on normal television as well as virtual reality. Before we go on to give you the details of the TV schedule, betting odds, and live stream, let’s quickly touch on the virtual reality aspect […]

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will face the Michigan State Spartans this weekend. Oh, not only in real life, but also in virtual reality. Yes. Yes. That is all very confusing. Let me clear it up for you. Fox Sports plans on airing the game in virtual reality. You know, a place in the world […]

The Indiana Hoosiers might not be known as a college football powerhouse, but the program does have some solid history behind it. Terry Hoeppner, who previously coached at the school, is certainly part of that history. His story goes beyond football. The university plans to honor that story this weekend. In what will seem subtle […]

People are constantly talking about the NFL’s ratings these days. For whatever the reason, and everyone has their own opinion as to why, the numbers have dipped. For college football, however, that discussion has yet to leak to the sport. That might change now, though that conversion may appear slightly different. The Iowa Hawkeyes are […]
