College Football Trolling

Arizona, Texas A&M lead top trolls in college football Week 12

It's getting a little late in the season, but teams haven't let up on trolling their opponents quite yet.

Take the Arizona Wildcats, for example. Facing off against the No. 25 Cincinnati Bearcats, their Big 12 conference rivals, Arizona gutted out a nervy 30-24 win. The Wildcats went down 14-7 in the first quarter, but scored 20 points in the second half, pulling ahead for good on a 50-yard touchdown run by Kedrick Reescano.

After the game, the Wildcats' social media team posted a graphic of their triumphant mascot looking on as the Bearcats' mascot spilled a bucket of Skyline Chili -- Cincinnati's most famous culinary export -- on the field.

Arizona wasn't the only team to deliver an online jab on its opponents. Here are all the top trolls from around college football in Week 12.

South Carolina was up 30-3 over No. 3 Texas A&M at halftime, and if they'd scored any points at all in the second half, they would have won. That wasn't to be the case, however, as the Aggies locked in on defense and turned on the jets on offense. Marcel Reed threw for 439 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions, and EJ Smith scored a game-winning four-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter.

The Aggies were in an understandably jubilant mood after the game and celebrated by re-upping the classic "look at all those chickens" Vine. They also added the Gamecocks' logo to the chair where they record all their victories and made sure South Carolina knew exactly how many unanswered points they gave up.

Alcohol's fine. It's caffeinated products that are the problem (if I remember Mormon doctrine correctly).

John Beam, the Laney College athletic director and former football coach who was featured in Netflix's "Last Chance U," died Friday morning after being shot on campus Thursday, authorities said. A suspect has been arrested in connection with the shooting, the Oakland Police Department said Friday.

The incident, the second school-related shooting in Oakland in as many days, occurred just before noon at the college's fieldhouse. Officers found Beam suffering from gunshot wounds, and he was taken to a hospital. The college was placed on lockdown shortly afterward.

"My thoughts are with coach John Beam and his loved ones," Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee shared in a statement. "We are praying for him. Coach Beam is a giant in Oakland -- a mentor, an educator and a lifeline for thousands of young people. For over 40 years, he has shaped leaders on and off the field, and our community is shaken alongside his family."

Beam, 66, became a nationally recognized figure after "Last Chance U" chronicled Laney's 2019 season. Before retiring as coach in 2024 and moving into the athletic director position, he led the program to two league championships and a 2018 state title, a season in which Laney finished 11-2 and was ranked the top community college team in the country. He also maintained a 90% graduation and transfer rate for his players, according to CBS News.

New Orleans Saints (official thread)

Gayle Benson insists she will not be selling the Saints or the Pelicans

Sains owner Gayle Benson won’t be firing long-time G.M. Mickey Loomis. She also won’t be selling the Saints, or the NBA’s Pelicans.

“Let me be clear about this,” Benson said in an interview with Jeff Duncan of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, via Sports Business Journal. “The teams are not for sale. That’s in capital letters. I want everybody to know the teams are not for sale. I get tired of people asking me [if they’re for sale]. I’m going to turn 79 in January, but I’m pretty healthy. I hear that people want to talk to me about buying the team. I’m like, well, that’s a waste of my time. That’s not going to happen. And people need to calm down about the team moving.”

That said, Benson restated her long-term plans for the teams.

“It remains that when I die, both teams will be sold to the highest bidder and those proceeds will be used 100 percent to improve this community,” she said.

Just sayin': If that what will eventually be done, you would think that she would want to
1. sell the teams now,
2. have input how the money will be used to help the community,
and
3. enjoy seeing the actual improvements to the community before she dies.

'25 OH SG Dorian Jones (Rutgers Verbal)

I can step in here.. being that I have one OSU grad and one Rutgers grad..
Both were virtually identical requirements... some of the highest we dealt with.. excluding Northwestern and Lehigh which were in the mix.
Rutgers is pretty rigid and that even holds for NJ kids. Almost to a person, everyone that knew my daughter got into Rutgers.. congratulated me about her getting into an Ivy League school... most of my friends at the time were non-NJ folks. so your @calibuck perception is validated
