In one of the strangest events of this football season, Urban Meyer quits, unquits, kind of halfway quits in a 24 hour period. Along the »
Game Recaps
South Florida Suffocation
South Florida 30, West Virginia 19
Make no mistake about South Florida’s feelings for West Virginia. Any respect for the Mountaineers disappears once the Bulls step on the football field as domination takes over. Nowhere was it more evident than going for and achieving two fourth down conversions with a game still wide open, both from midfield. It’s an act that [...]
Governor’s Cup Belongs to Wildcats
Kentucky 31, Louisville 27
The sold out Commonwealth venue provided all the glitz and glamour, ups and downs a rivalry game can offer including a bizarre clock issue to end the first half. Louisville and Kentucky matched their 1-0 records in the heart of Thoroughbred Country. Kentucky head coach Rich Brooks silently pieced together a powerful team in the [...]
Hurricanes Rage in ACC Match-up
Miami 33, Georgia Tech 17
Georgia Tech’s battering ram of an offense amassed over 400 yards rushing in last season’s match against Miami. This year it was Miami with the battering ram pounding the iron-like Yellow Jackets into a flimsy sheet of foil. The Hurricane offense seemed virtually unstoppable behind outstanding QB Jacory Harris.
The Yellow Jacket team looked tired and [...]
USC 18, OSU 15
Tressel Ball Dies an Agonizing Death at The Hands of the Men of Troy
Vanilla is my favorite type of cream soda. I prefer vanilla milkshakes. Heck, I even like vanilla ice cream. Vanilla in a team’s play calling is something I don’t particularly care for. Especially in the amounts that Jim Tressel dialed up Saturday night against the USC Trojans.
The Buckeyes did everything they needed to do to [...]
EARLY SIGNS OF LIFE – BARELY
UNC at U CONN
What started as an uninspired performance by UNC and an error filled first half by U Conn, turned into a good, tight second half battle, as the Tarheels benefited from a late penalty/safety to slip by the Huskies, 12 – 10.
T.J. Yates went 23-32-2, with one TD, passing for UNC, but the [...]
West Virginia 35, East Carolina 20
A Tale of Two Quarterbacks
A box of shells isn’t that expensive. In a state like West Virginia, hell, a box of shells is readily available too. The problem is every West Virginia fan can experience a plethora of much more entertaining events than taking those shells, placing them in the chamber of a .38 special, placing steady aim on [...]
Cincinnati 47, Rutgers 15
Big East Maybe Not So Wide Open
Cincinnati and Rutgers both started the season in a tight spot. With the Big East scrounging for opportunities for promotions, the Bearcats and Scarlet Knights were chose as the whipping boys to represent the Big East in what was to be the equivalent of the Miami – Florida State rivalry on opening weekend. Neither head [...]
BAMA 34 VA TECH 24
RAMMA JAMMA? Maybe later
During the first quarter, hell from the Tide’s first possession, that sound you heard was not a jet breaking the sound barrier, it was 40 million Bama fans saying, ” WTF?” The Wild (take your pick of overworked phrases for that moronic and simple act of snapping to the tailback) worked about as well and [...]
