Dan Mullen, offensive coordinator for the Florida Gators recently announced that he would be leaving Florida at season’s end, if not sooner, to take the head coaching job at Mississippi State.  It is still unclear as to whether he’ll coach Florida in the upcoming national championship game.  It is also unclear what effect that will have on the Gators’ offensive game plan. Mullen is not the only coach rumored to leave Gainesville for not-so-greener pastures.  Defensive Coordinator Charlie Strong, who has ...Read More

If you want to spark a debate among friends, or really piss off a sensitive message board poster, talking about a program’s tradition, or lack thereof, is one of the best ways to do it. With that in mind, what better way to kick off our ‘bests’ series than by taking a look at who the most storied programs are. And when we think of 'storied,' we (most of us, at least) think of sustained success, championships, and ...Read More

There’s no pressure on LSU quarterbacks Andrew Hatch or Jarrett Lee. Nope, hardly any. After all, one of these guys only has to replace former super-recruit and SEC title game MVP Ryan Perrilloux, as well as solid starter Matt Flynn, and try and lead the Tigers to back-to-back national championships in a football-mad state.

Perrilloux, who was booted off of LSU's team by Les Miles less than two weeks ago, signed with FCS member Jacksonville State, who went 6-5 last season and finished fourth in the Ohio Valley Conference with a 5-3 record. The rising redshirt junior, who was going to start for LSU this season ...Read More

So, Les Miles finally stopped giving QB Ryan Perrilloux chances and kicked him off of the team, just four months away from LSU's season opener against Appalachian St. Perrilloux, a redshirt junior, was set to take over for Matt Flynn under center for the national champion Tigers, but now, the job is likely up for grabs between redshirt freshman Jarrett Lee, Andrew Hatch, and potentially Jordan Jefferson, a highly-touted incoming recruit. Personally, I was a little surprised that he hadn't ...Read More

Two national championships in a row for the SEC, two in five seasons for LSU, and for Ohio St., two straight years when they came into the national championship game #1 and looked far from it. The Tigers iced the game with a little under six minutes to play when Curtis Taylor picked off Todd Boeckman, and put the cherry on the sundae with Matt Flynn’s fourth touchdown pass of the game, a 5-yarder to Richard Dickson with 1:50 to go. ...Read More
