After failing to obtain a large enough order of Extenz from Jimmy Johnson to suit its needs, Texas A&M came out with the next-best solution for its problem on Wednesday by admitting it will be leaving the Big 12 Conference at the end of the school year.
The Aggies have felt ...

Mad props to the Texas Longhorns, who spent the past two weeks playing the entire nation like a fiddle before laughing all the way to the bank.
Texas became the savior of the sane collegiate sports world this week, ending speculation that the Big XII would be completely dismantled as the ...

First off, I want to start by saying anyone who advocates expanding the NCAA Tournament field from 65 teams to 96 teams is a moron. This isn't little league. We don't all get participation ribbons.
And I know there were opponents to the expansion to 64 back when it was introduced, ...

If you ever become a prominent athlete in Houston, apparently there is a very good chance of a meat product being named after you.
I discovered this not too long ago at a trip to the grocery store when I stumbled upon many of these said items in the meat aisle. ...

Happy Championship Week to everyone.
Just want to point out Utah, Boise State and TCU are all ranked ahead of the Big East champion (Cincinnati) and whoever the ACC champion will be. But do any of those four teams get to go to BCS games? One: Utah, with an outside shot ...

It's just plain wrong Boise State and Ball State can go undefeated, win their respective conferences, and not get into the BCS. What makes it ironic is it'll be another undefeated non-BCS team (Utah) that's taking their place.
Once again, we've learned exactly what makes the BCS so shitty. Instead of ...

Record through week nine: 96-40, 65-66-5 ATS
12pm ET
West Virginia (5-2) at (25) UConn (6-2) (+3.5)
I feel terrible for UConn. They really did have a shot at something special, but they're just not the same without their quarterback. Hence their being home dogs against an unranked team. Worse for them, West ...

Happy weekend, everyone. It's a Rumors and Rants road trip this week, so we'll have to see if people in the south are okay with dorks with computers in their sports bars or not. Should be interesting.
Congress created the BCS!
Okay, not really. But take a look at these rankings:
1. Georgia
2. ...

Afternoon, all. Okay, okay, so it's not the crack of noon, it's more like one, but at least I'm up. Can't believe I have to wait seven hours before IU plays tonight.
All the early games are still close, and Georgia Tech just fumbled, so things aren't looking good so far. ...

Morning. I managed to sleep in a little today, though the Indiana game starts shortly and I'm very, very nervous. It's gorgeous outside, the leaves are changing, and I'm loving every second of it. We're starting big right off the bat with the IU game, Minny at Illinois, and some ...
