The Red Zone Report

With several coaches having already resigned or been handed their walking papers before the end of the season, I thought it’d be a good idea to keep track of all of the changes and speculate on the ones to come in one nice, tidy section. This section will be updated regularly, whether it’s to [...]

There was a small chance that the BCS could’ve went a little nutty and spit out an Oklahoma-Texas rematch for the national championship, but after the coaches’ poll revealed Oklahoma and Florida to be 1-2, there was little surprise as to who would be playing for the national title. Of course, even Urban Meyer [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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, [...]

Today’s a good day to be Maikon Bonani. There are only a couple of times when many know a kicker’s name - when he misses a big kick, or when he makes a game-winning field goal. I’m going to venture a guess that USF’s freshman kicker could’ve painted Tampa red for free last [...]

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 [...]

(Video scooped from Rock Chalk Talk) Sure, Kansas‘ defense allowed Louisiana Tech’s Phillip Livas to break loose for a 78-yard run. But, KU safety Darrell Stuckey made sure Livas didn’t get the two yards he needed to get into the end zone. Livas is one of the fastest players the country may not know [...]

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 [...]

Talk about coming out of nowhere. That’s what the Kansas Jayhawks did in 2007, as they went from unranked when the season began to unbeaten in November, led by a prolific offense and a playmaking defense. The Jayhawks breezed through their non-conference schedule, outscoring their four opponents 214-23. But, the winning wouldn’t [...]
