It used to be a draft with a clear selection order and for the most part there is still an order, but the latest agreements have said that the conference ultimately works hand in hand with the bowls to provide the best matchup + experience for all schools. For non-playoff bowls the order of...

This is my sentiment. I enjoy watching sports for the idea of 2 teams going at it to see who is best. But now it's very much clouded by "the storylines", "hype machines" and gambling talk. As we saw with the officiating in the Oregon game, I'm not entirely convinced that every game is one the...

The agreement with the Pinstripe Bowl is unique. The original agreement in 2014 called for 8 different schools in an 8-year period. When they renewed at the start of the decade I think they modified that to be 6 different schools in an 8-year period with an understanding that the conference...

His point was accurate. Their coach went to Washington State and they lost over 20 players to portal. They started ranked 2nd but have lost 4 straight and are not close to what they were in last 5 years.

In order to say he regained possession is to admit he immediately lost possession again at the back of the end zone. It's possible but more likely that he never regained it in the first place.

We need to come to grips really fast that 6-6 is a legit possibility, probably more likely than 8-4

Iowa isn't dropping it.

I love college baseball so I can't agree with dropping it

Coyle has downgraded just about every sport on his watch. Football treading water. Baseball a joke. Wrestling and volleyball non factors. Basketball terrible. Both hockey teams are not national contenders anymore
