Missouri's flirtation with the SEC is just that, a flirtation. They know full well they'll never be able to compete in that league and are just using them to get the conference they really want to look at them: the B1G Ten. Check out the lede to this article from the ...

The SEC submitted its suggestions for changes to NCAA rules regarding recruiting athletes. And surprise, surprise, the SEC's representatives want to make their own jobs easier. While I'm definitely not here to defend the NCAA's byzantine policies regarding everything, it's still pretty funny that there aren't a whole lot of ...

The Internets have ruined our attention spans to the point that we need to find ways to entertain ourselves between when the regular season of college football ends and the start of bowl season. I swear we used to be able to find things to do before the Internet meant ...

Conference USA Championship Game
Southern Methodist (7-5) at Central Florida (9-3) (-9)
I guess Central Florida is good this year? Okay, I admit it, and you may find this shocking, but I didn't follow Conference USA very closely this year. I know. Unforgivable.
Pick: UCF ...

I'll say it now: anyone who says that Alabama threw that second half so the BCS wouldn't have to defend putting a one-loss team in the national title game over an undefeated Boise State or TCU squad is just sick and wrong.
There's nothing fishy about the Crimson Tide's performance in ...

Let's be real here, with all the rumors, reports and investigations going on can we just all be honest about this? Cam Newton and his father Cecil did something wrong. Did Cecil ever specifically mention pay-for-play? Maybe not. Did Cam know it was going on? Maybe not. But all of ...

Since expansion is the trendy thing to do, the Big East is apparently looking to add a couple of football teams. TCU, Central Florida, and Villanova seem to be the front-runners, according to the ESPN article.
It's pretty easy to make fun of the Big East for being by far the ...

Record after week eight: 88-38 (63-60-3 ATS)
12 pm ET
Northwestern (5-2) at Indiana (4-3) (+3)
All Indiana has left on the schedule that they can definitely win on a good day are Northwestern and Purdue. Not-so-coincidentally, those are the two wins they need for bowl eligibility. They're not beating Wisconsin, Iowa, or ...
