“The Ire Of The Tigers Fans”
If Mizzou fans are not upset today, then they will be after reading this. If I were a Mizzou fan, I would be upset. Sure that win against Kansas was dare I say the biggest win in the history of the program? There has not been so much excitement in [...]
A wraparound of some stories from the weekend, courtesy of Sport Blog America:
— USC and OJ Mayo fall flat on their face against Sam Mitchell’s alma mater. (The Big Lead)
— Keyshawn is giving Emmit a run for his money in the “suck” category. (Awful Announcing)
— Some non-BCS teams that could make noise this year in [...]
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 [...]
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. [...]
The spellbinding stories that THEY are talking about on this Monday morning:
—It’s amazing how wrong we can be about team and statistics. Everyone thought that Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippin led those late 90’s Bulls teams in scoring, but no…apparently it was Jason Caffey. (The Big Lead)
—First they cover the Houston Bowl, irritating all 12 [...]
Some stuff to read while you’re enjoying Caturday…

—Going to South Bend is normally distasteful under any circumstances, but [...]

Topics: Our weekly NFL wrap-up podcast examines the day games from Week 6 of the season. Plus, we talk about the newly-released BCS standings, the MLB playoffs, and the Kelvin Sampson situation at Indiana.
As we’ve said before, credit the AP pollsters for making votes public, unlike their counterpart coward coaches, who only do so after the season (because, of course, we shouldn’t know their agenda until year’s end, right?).
That said, are we missing something with this week’s AP poll?!?! Wisconsin drops 19 spots, yet USC loses at [...]
Seems a couple of big wins puts the University of Kentucky up there with USC. Heck, according to UK coach Rich Brooks, near half the league is as good as the Trojans.
On Thursday’s version of The Jim Rome Show, Brooks explained the difference between playing in the Pac-10 and the SEC is “we play four [...]
Looking at what other blogs are bringing you today:
ALL ON THE FIELD has an interesting Q&A with former New York Yankee (and author of “Ball Four”) Jim Bouton.
DEADSPIN: Apparently the University of Central Florida’s new stadium is named “Bright House Network Stadium”. What exactly is a “Bright House Network”? You may well ask. Oh, also [...]
