The BCS picture

It was an interesting, yet somewhat predictable, weekend of college football. Another #2 lost, Ohio State rolled up yet another overrated Big Ten opponent, and LSU squeaked out another game against an SEC squad that had no business being ranked in the top 20. With the new BCS standings released on Sunday, we appear to [...]

Monday Morning Hangover

Desperately looking for stuff to read that is NOT about the Red Sox winning the World Series last night? You’ve come to the right place.
— It was quite a weekend for Oregon football. They beat USC. They gained the #4 ranking in the polls. And Mike Belotti’s wife Colleen (and the family nanny) unleashes a [...]

Anatomy of a Crushing Defeat

Since Thermocaster broke down the ramifications of last night’s BC-Va Tech showdown (see below), I won’t dive into that. But what I can do is give a first-hand report of just how the Eagles won the game… or, more accurately, how the “Chokies” lost it. The fact of the matter is that the #2 team in [...]

And the BCS goes “Uh oh!”

I’m coming off a pretty dreadful illness, and one of the byproducts of that is a trademarked lack of patience with bad sporting events. Thus, I had completely tuned out of the Boston College-Virginia Tech game by the end of the 3rd quarter last night, preferring instead to watch the Rockies-Red Sox game on FOX.

Good thing he knows how to play football

 
An article in yesterday’s Palm Peach Post tells the story of Miami Dolphins linebacker (and former University of Florida Gator) Channing Crowder and his reaction to the ‘Fins trip across the pond to London for the NFL’s first regular season game in Europe.  Its a generic story with no news worthy content, but with the Dolphins winless it might be [...]

THE GAMES OF THE WEEK

It was a good week for LWN, as he went 5-1. Only a late Kellen Lewis TD scramble kept me from being perfect on the week. Yours truly was at the IU-PSU game this past weekend, and while the outcome was somewhat disappointing the fans were impressive. By impressive, I mean angry. [...]
