I don't think I've ever not rooted for Penn State to beat Michigan, and it ain't because I like Penn State. They didn't play for a couple years after the Sandusky case, otherwise maybe that would have been an exception.

18 first round draft picks in one college football game is incredible. Probably would have been 19 if Maurice Clarett had had his head screwed on straight when he was young.

Just download the BP phone app and listen to all posts read over your car's audio system. You can choose BKB's voice or BKB's voice. Which is weird, they both sound the same, but I think the second one uses different pronouns or something.

I was shook when they told me Dwight Howard is still playing professional basketball.

In his Situational today, @Ramzy says that McCord has been playing on an injured ankle all season, and that it is affecting his throwing.

ChatDBB, explain the Hall Effect.

OSU at Beaver Stadium is never easy. PSU at the Shoe is sometimes tough, sometimes a righteous ass-kicking.

I'm just not sure this guy's going to be at the level of Jamyest Williams.

Hartline might not be able to recruit any more three stars because anyone he recruits is going to get a ranking boost.

Yep, that’s why Haskins came in for Barrett against Michigan, got the comeback win, and probably earned the edge for the starting position the next year.

Nor did anyone else. But college football is second-rate football, and it only exists as a marketable phenomenon because it occupies a particular niche. Fuck with that niche, and you will destroy its marketability.

Smart has been an upgrade over Richt, but part of Georgia's rise is due to the fact that the state of Georgia increasingly produces a lot of elite high school football talent. Georgia and Ohio have about the same population and, 20 years ago, produced about the same number of NFL players...

I don’t know who wallace sayre is, but that statement is dumb.

And about having a better touchdown conversion rate in the red zone than your opponent has in the inverse red zone.

That wasn't my experience at all. Working on grant proposals with professors across multiple departments in the late '90's, I found them all to be collegial and welcoming. Of course there's going to be some "politics" (ie. people trying to get status and privilege, sometimes through indirect...

Putting aside that Tressel and Meyer helped create that malaise, they both beat good-to-very-good Michigan teams. Sometimes emphatically, sometimes scratching it out. The '06 and '16 Michigan teams were approximately as good as the Michigan teams of the past two years, for example. Michigan's...

It would be a different story if you had the prospect of an undefeated PAC12 champion and an undefeated ACC champion, but you don't have that this year.

It's obviously true that winning a P5 CCG doesn't guarantee admission to the playoff, but I think winning the SEC CCG comes close, particularly when i) that team has a pair of elite wins, ii) that team appears to have improved significantly from the beginning of the season to the end, and iii)...

I agree that LSU probably won't beat Georgia. But if they do win out through the CCG, I'd expect them to be in the playoff.

We all slip sometimes. But sincerely, excellent article.
