The Red Zone Report

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 [...]

For the past few days, I’ve been mulling over writing an article about Sylvester Croom’s resignation at Mississippi State, but I figured it’s about time to break my silence. I’m sad to see Croom go, to say the least. I felt like he had a long future in Starkville, and it’s a shame [...]

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 [...]

As a head coach, no matter what job you take, at some point, you have to win games. If you don’t, you won’t be around after a while. Tyrone Willingham won’t be at Washington in 2009, as his official departure was announced on Monday. He‘ll finish out the season, but that‘ll be [...]

Before August 30, everything looked to be cut and dry in the ACC.

It’s been a season full of upsets so far, but little ol’ Thursday night has kicked off the upset [...]

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 [...]

It‘s actually not Friday anymore (not here, at least), but I‘m getting this out a little later than I‘d planned to since Friday was a busy day. Because there‘s not enough time for me to always go through every headline and interesting story I come across in short order, I thought it‘d be a [...]

Last week, college football TV viewers were treated to a few exciting matchups (LSU’s last-minute win over Auburn), some big performances (Javon Ringer’s 200-yard day against Notre Dame), and a dud or two (Florida putting Tennessee over their knee in Knoxville). This week, there are quite a few intriguing matchups. We’re starting to [...]
