Oklahoma jumps Texas in BCS, earns Big 12 title game berth
Oh BCS, you’ve gone and done it again!
By virtue of being #2 in the new BCS standings, Oklahoma has a place in the Big 12 title game against Missouri and a chance to tie up a berth in the national title game against either Florida or Alabama. On the outside looking in [...]
Heisman Watch: All eyes on Norman
If you don’t feel like reading, just scroll on down for my top five Heisman candidates.
On Saturday, Sam Bradford and Oklahoma host Graham Harrell and Texas Tech in a game that has Big 12 title, national title, and Heisman Trophy implications.
Graham Harrell enters the weekend atop my list and many others. If [...]
Prince out at Kansas State, Patterson next?
And down goes another head coach from the collegiate ranks. While Phil Fulmer’s exit from Tennessee has drawn plenty of ire since it was announced on Monday, I don’t think there will be too many people shedding tears or gnashing teeth about Ron Prince’s resignation from Kansas State.
It’s pretty simple why Prince [...]
Heisman Watch: Looking to Lubbock
Harrell or Crabtree?
So simple, but so difficult to decide who’s the Heisman front-runner this week. Is it the guy who threw the game-winning touchdown pass, or the guy who caught it.
Crabtree’s year hasn’t been as prolific as last year, but 70 catches, 921 yards, and 15 touchdowns through nine games isn’t [...]
November will make or break Heisman hopes of McCoy and others
I feel pretty safe in saying that the next few weeks of the college football season will go a long way towards deciding the winner of the 2008 Heisman Trophy.
With all due respect to the likes of Michigan State’s Javon Ringer or Missouri’s Chase Daniel, who was on many a preseason favorite list, [...]
Saturday Shuffle: Upsets, upsets, and more upsets!
The Shuffle certainly has an appropriate name this week, doesn’t it? Instead of doing the usual Saturday Shuffle tonight, I thought I’d devote tonight’s shuffle to all of the shuffling and shaking up that there’ll be in the upcoming polls thanks to an upset-filled week to cap September. Every college football season, there seems [...]
Playing the Odds: Thursday and Friday
I’ll be giving my predictions for this weekend’s college football action more in-depth tomorrow, and Mark Scott will be around to give his weekly 12-pack of college football and NFL picks tomorrow as well, but I’m around to give my picks on Thursday and Friday’s games and tell you who you should put your money [...]
Saturday Shuffle: Arizona State falls, ECU survives, Ringer runs wild, and more
There were other games on Saturday besides USC-Ohio State? Well, I’m not sure how much of a game that beating was, but back on topic!
It was a wild, action-packed day, which started with a top-25 team from the Pac-10 going down and ended with a top-25 team from the Pac-10 going down, one of [...]
2008 Big 12 Preview: Sooners look to continue dominance, but it won’t be easy
Last season, the North saw a resurgence in the Big 12, as Missouri and Kansas rose to the top of the division and to the national polls. But in the end, it was Oklahoma who reigned supreme yet again, as the Sooners captured their sixth Big 12 South title in eight seasons and their [...]
2008 Texas Longhorns Preview
Last season wasn’t quite the season that Texas probably hoped for, but it was a good season nonetheless.
The Longhorns started the season 4-0, but losses to Kansas State and Oklahoma in their first two Big 12 games dealt a huge blow to their conference title hopes. But, Texas reeled off five straight [...]
