Hamilton won the Home Run Derby, despite not winning

by MECU

I like college football the way it is. I like that the regular season matters, that a team can’t sluff through the regular season and then end up champion. No rewarding easy schedules though either (Kansas, Hawaii), but a team that competes and is the best at the end of the season, ought to have [...]

My thoughts on Ohio State football in 2008

by MECU

Ohio State has lost the BCS National Championship game the last two seasons. In fact, they are the only team to ever lose the BCS National Championship game. Sure, it’s only been played twice, but Ohio State has only ever lost it. Congrats to the SEC, who have the only two teams to ever win [...]

Why the Coaches Poll should not be a part of the BCS Rankings

by MECU

A look at how Mack Brown wants the Coaches Poll out of the BCS (well, who doesn’t?, and also, who does?), led me to another blog and A fix for the Coaches Poll? They propose a simple approval voting system, where each coach would just list the top 10 teams, in no specific order, and [...]

Gump for Heisman has a great article about the alternate EA Sports NCAA Football 09 covers. Sadly, no Colorado covers. (Or gladly as you will see.)

Why Penn State’s Joe Pa should coach

by MECU

Why Penn State’s Joe Pa should coach.
How much coaching does he do? I fully support and agree with the argument that he’s earned the right to leave on his own terms; that after all he’s done for Penn State, it’s the least they can do. But still, how much coaching does he do?
But does that [...]

Do We Need The LSU Cheerleaders?

This is funny. See the post at LSU Football Freak!

Nebraska fan shows how truly classy they are

by MECU

Thankfully the Wyoming QB is alive.
Look at the comments over at SMQ. Fortunately it is a Nebraska fan, so their hopes of actually doing stuff (ie, winning) this season are, as usual, over-inflated.

Colorado announces LSU not really part of schedule, Fresno State actually is.

by MECU

Colorado has had LSU on the 2011 and 2012 schedules for several years now, but it apparently was all a ruse as the contracts weren’t ever signed. So, instead of signing them, they push LSU off into the far far away future where LSU doesn’t even schedule games and added the all-too-common home-home-home series with [...]
