What Tennessee’s Loss to UCLA Really Means
This loss was as crippling to the team as it was to the fan base. Much like the fans, this team was starting to believe that they were back and that last season was a fluke. You could tell after Crompton’s first pick that the doubts began to creep back in.Â
The offense is awful. None [...]
SEC Weekend Overreactions
Auburn looks scary. Over 500 yards in each of their first two games… Kodi Burns looks like a Gus Malzahn QB and two RB’s have topped 100 yards in each of the first two games. ESPN Chris Lowe dropped this nugget earlier: Auburn scored 6 offensive touchdowns against Mississippi State. They only scored 7 offensive [...]
College Football: Weekend Overreactions
Houston is the most fun team to watch in football. Did anyone else see the play with 6 freaking options? OSU’s defense just crapped their pants and let Casey Keenum throw a 30-yard pass.
Tennessee’s who we thought they were…before last week. We kind of feel bad for Jonathan Crompton. We feel even worse for the [...]
Duke Is Not Good At Football
OMG Duke’s awful. They got housed by FCS Richmond last week. They’re losing to Army 10-7 at the time of this writing. We love David Cutcliffe, but his team’s really digressing. QB Thadeus Lewis is a proficient 5 of 16 for 60 yards in the game. Cut may challenge UVA’s Al Groh for ACC futility.
Spoke too [...]
Why Michigan/ Notre Dame is Bigger than USC/ Ohio State
The game of the century of the week this week is in Ann Arbor, not in Columbus. Here’s why the Wolverines and Irish game is the one that matters most:
Competition: Most of the free world believes that USC will run away with this one. We’re in that group. The Trojans return All-American C Kristofer O’Dowd [...]
Tennessee/UCLA Preview
Revenge, Revenge, Revenge. That is what Tennessee players and fans are thinking in this game. Almost every Tennessee player that was interviewed this week brought up the fact that this team is motivated because of the embarrassing loss to a poor UCLA team. Many Tennessee fans think that if Tennessee would have beat UCLA, Phillip [...]
Matchup to Watch Today: Jimmy Clausen vs. Greg Robinson
Notre Dame’s offense is loaded with talent at almost every position and the offense put up 510 total yards in last weekend’s win over Nevada. Jimmy Clausen threw for 315 yards and four touchdowns and Clausen will have one of the best seasons of any quarterback in the nation. Notre Dame faces a better defense [...]
Player to Watch Today: Noel Devine
Many people are picking East Carolina to beat West Virginia today and I don’t understand why people are picking against the Mountaineers this week. We are not big fans of West Virginia’s coach Bill Stewart, but Stewart will lead the Mountaineers to a good bowl game this season. Remember that SEC fans never give LSU’s [...]
Bosworth Calls Tennessee Fans Rednecks
Tennessee fans have a new enemy on UCLA’s team. UCLA defensive end Korey Bosworth said, “There will be 100,000 rednecks against us down there, and those are my people.” Bosworth made sure to include himself as part of the rednecks, but you know that Tennessee fans will not enjoy this quote. Will Bryce Brown run [...]
Cox Has Rotator Cuff Problems
Georgia quarterback Joe Cox said his rotator cuff is causing him problems, but the quarterback is expected to start today against South Carolina. This will be a very ugly SEC game and South Carolina’s defense should cause problems for Cox and Georgia’s offense. Expect Cox to struggle for the second week in a row.
