The South Carolina Gamecocks Aren’t Dead Yet

Monday, October 17th, 2011

The South Carolina Gamecocks got their first bit of real bad news for the 2011 season on Sunday: stud running back, and focal point of the offense, Marcus Lattimore is done for the year with torn knee ligaments and cartilage damage. Getting rid of drunken master/quarterback Stephen Garcia seemed to have ...

Bowl Preview: Chick-fil-A Bowl

Thursday, December 30th, 2010

(20) South Carolina (9-4) vs. (23) Florida State (9-4) (+3) I grew up in the 1990's, and if I learned anything about Steve Spurrier in that time it's that he owns the other schools from the state of Florida. I honestly couldn't tell you what his record against them was or ...

Your College Football Bowls Preview Part 12

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Saturday, January 2, 2010 12 pm ET International Bowl South Florida (7-5) vs. Northern Illinois (7-5) (+7) I know he wasn't that great, but it's a shame Matt Grothe doesn't get to start for USF Saturday.

College Football Link Dump!

Sunday, November 1st, 2009

While I'm waiting for this slow execution that is the Vikings/Packers game so the BCS rankings can come out, I figured I'd link some newspaper and blog reactions to the bigger games of the weekend. Then Dexter is on, and NO ONE bothers me during my stories. Hey, Indiana fan, did ...

The Biggest “Balloon Boys” In College Football

Monday, October 19th, 2009

The awesome hoax last week perpetrated by two very loving, not insane in any way, fame-at-all-costs parents got me thinking about college football.

And lo, on the first Thursday in September, the Lord decreed that there should be college football played in all the land. And so it was, and he saw that it was good (Tebow 4:5-6). This is exactly like Christmas, in that it doesn't really feel like time for it to ...
