Tuberville out at Auburn, Leach or Calhoun next?
In a move that almost all of the college football world saw coming for the majority of the season, Tommy Tuberville stepped down at Auburn today. The last time Tuberville was on edging towards the furnace, the Tigers went 13-0 the following season. Unfortunately, there was no escape this season, and there are only so [...]
College Football Roundup: It’s not funny anymore, ACC
This weekend’s college football schedule was pretty light, but there was no shortage of action. There weren’t any earth-shattering upsets, which is why the top half of the new polls are mostly intact heading into next weekend, which will see several big games (Oklahoma-Texas Tech, Penn State-Michigan State, Cincinnati-Pittsburgh, Central Michigan-Ball State). I’ll leave the [...]
Another Gator Title: So Close And Yet So Far Away
Less than one week ago, with what appeared to be three easy games remaining in their conference schedule, experts penciled in a then undefeated Penn State team into the national championship game.

CFB Channel Cruisin’ Week 4: Rivalries and non-conference matchups highlight this week’s slate
After an exciting week last week, there’s no game that’s the caliber of USC-Ohio State, but there’s not a letdown in the least. This weekend’s slate offers up several rivalry games, a few key early conference matchups, and some good non-conference showdowns as well, and it all gets started tonight. That’s right, tonight, which is [...]
CFB Channel Cruisin’ Week 3: It’s the big one!
After what amounted to an in-between week produced a couple of upsets and a few more near-upsets, this week is the one we’ve been waiting for. There’s the big one, which really needs no introduction (but I’ll be doing a preview of it anyway), but you’ve got plenty of action before (and during and after) [...]

There are some things that I’m going to run through in greater detail in separate articles over the next couple of days, and there are some things that I’m saving [...]
