Translation: Ben Johnson is gone if we don’t make the dance next year.

I dislike Bama but I hate UNC. Good riddance.

Exactly. Good chance he can make more money and compete on a team that regularly makes the dance. Hard to blame him or any player if that’s on the table.

I hate this but it’s a good troll.

I don’t think this is a money thing. Alberts was apparently in the top 10 paid ADs and had a contract that would keep him there. A&M has plenty of wealthy boosters and oil money, but it’s not like Nebraska was lacking funds for athletics. Nor do I think this says anything about the state of...

Minnesota sports: Accomplishing incredible statistical feats of sadness.

Duke star trips someone, fakes injury, and the media goes on crusade to defend its CBB golden goose. More at 11.

Was at the game… glad I got those tix for free. Pinnacle doesn’t feel like a college arena, but they get great and loud crowds.

Wake should’ve had better crowd control. But I’ve never seen a more Duke moment than a star player tripping/shoving a fan and “injuring” himself, then watching their fans melt down and suggest that they sue Wake and the fan(s).

Let’s see… Expected win: Rhode Island, Nevada Toss ups, more or less: Maryland, UNC, UCLA, Iowa, Illinois, Rutgers, Wisconsin Expected loss: USC, Michigan, Penn State So they need to go 2-0 in the “easy” games and only 3-4 in the toss up games to hit the over. I’d take that.

I doubt PJ gets the job, but this is probably the most “nervous” I’ve been about an opening. Most of the other prior openings for which he’s been rumored were an odd fit for one reason or another. This one seems more plausible if it’s what PJ wants. We’ll see. Count me in the camp that doesn’t...

He deserves a ton of credit, obviously, but you also have to factor in the nature of college recruiting. Some programs start on third base because of their name, history, and location. It’s a hell of a lot easier to build a great roster at someplace like Bama, Florida, Michigan, Texas, USC, etc...

Have to tip your hat to the GOAT. I’ve come to begrudgingly admire Saban, though I won’t shed a tear if Bama has a Nebraska stretch. I know Bama is a top job… maybe THE top job… but man, taking over from Saban in a rapidly changing environment is a tough ask. If I’m the Washington, Texas...

I’m not going to celebrate Ben Johnson. Yet. But I sure as hell will celebrate every Gopher B1G win!

The SEC is better than the B1G. I don’t like it, but it’s true. It’s amazing that the B1G playoff team(s) always get so close and collapse each time. Get ready for another Bama championship. Yawn.

The upcoming SEC superiority narratives will be really annoying, but they’re probably true. Whatever, let them have it. College football and food are the two things the south excels at. At the end of the day, if the SEC is going to kick the B1G’s ass again, Wisconsin and Iowa may as well be at...

This tier list is a joke. No argument from me that Minnesota is essentially irrelevant in the “national conversation.” Who cares. But Iowa, Wisconsin, and Nebraska in tier 2? UCF and Arizona above the Gophers in tier 3? I shouldn’t have given this shill what he wanted: a click.

As a fan of another ACC school, and as someone who’s lived in FSU country, we should not want FSU in the B1G. Super obnoxious, self-entitled, mostly redneck fanbase that does not at all fit the culture of the conference. They think they’re the only reason the ACC is a decent conference. And now...

How is it that northern and Midwest teams seem to dominate the FCS? It seems there are plenty of southeastern FCS schools, which are closer to recruiting hotbeds, so why don’t they dominate national championships like the SEC? Are those states so SEC obsessed that they just don’t invest in or...

We’re like a small, unimpressive house in a rich neighborhood. Things are safe, predictable, affluent. But it’s clear where we sit in the pecking order.
