Heisman Beef
The Wall Street Journal had an excellent article today about the lack of Heisman trophies won by southern schools. Alabama, which has more national titles than any school other than Notre Dame, has never had a player win the Heisman. We believe that no southern school should have won the Heisman during segregation, and aren’t [...]
Aaron Hernandez is Not The Best SEC Tight End
Everybody from ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit to Florida coach Urban Meyer is hyping up Florida tight end Aaron Hernandez like he is the best tight end in the SEC. Pro scouts drool over the thought of Hernandez playing on Sundays as they love his frame at 6-3, 250 lbs. Hernandez should make up for the loss [...]
5 Burning Questions: Mountain West Edition
1) Can Utah stay at the top after losing most of the key players from last year’s undefeated team? They can at least stay near the top. Kyle Whittingham planned ahead with 24 redshirt freshman on the team and two players returning from mission trips. Still, a mid-major doesn’t simply reload after losing their starting [...]
Zook Responds to Meyer
We love this feud that is starting between current Florida coach Urban Meyer and former Florida coach Ron Zook. When asked about how he handles fights in the locker room, Meyer said the following:
“When we first got here five years ago they had freshmen in a separate locker room and it was a bunch of [...]

5 Burning Questions: Notre Dame Style
5 Questions facing the team-that-needs-to-be-in-a-conference leading into the football season.
1) Is this finally the last season for Charlie Weis at Notre Dame?
Weis needs to thank Notre Dame’s athletic department for not firing him after last season and for scheduling cupcakes for this season. The Fighting Irish finished 7-6 last season, including an embarrassing loss to [...]
Big Day For Hard Knox Sports

5 Burning Questions: Big Eleven Edition
1) Are Ohio State and Penn State the only 2 teams that can win the conference? There’s little doubt that they are the league’s most talented teams, but there are as many as 4 teams that can take a step forward if the Buckeyes or Nittany Lions were to take more than a small step [...]
