Saturday night’s annual early-November showcase between LSU and Alabama started slowly, enough to create thousands of references to the 2011 game between the two schools. If you follow college football on Twitter (as I do, using our Student Section account to...

What an absolutely unhinged college football season this has been in terms of producing ridiculous game-defining plays. Arkansas just entered the hall of honor with its Houdini on Saturday evening against Ole Miss. I’m calling it “Woo Pig Lateral.”...

Sports offer many lessons about life, and “The Games People Play” certainly conveyed one important lesson to the Michigan State Spartans on Saturday: Don’t put yourself in position to get jobbed by something out of your control. * It is true that...

As if you needed proof that college football is truly crazy, just re-watch the Arkansas-Mississippi game. The game was tied at each quarter, then Arkansas won on a two-point conversion a few plays after making a first down on a crazy 4th and 25 play. If you watched...

It’s always puzzling when fans who root for the same team fight each other. They’re all there for the same cause and wearing the same colors. Louisville blew out Syracuse in Saturday’s game at Cardinal Stadium, yet for some reason, fans in the...

Florida scored more football points than Vanderbilt on Saturday. That’s all you need to know. In the end, that’s all that matters. We rarely remember how it got done enough to change our minds on anything, just that it got done. With that, Florida clinches...
