As the college football season passes the halfway point, West Virginia will travel to Connecticut in the Mountaineers’ third Big East conference game of 2010. The Huskies will have its most experienced team since their debut into Division I football in the 2002 season. The return of 16 starters this year will attempt to earn the school its first outright Big East Title since netting a share of the championship in 2007. The UConn offense as a ...

It’s inevitable . . . Though we know it will happen at some point, more than likely at a critical juncture in a must win-situation, we hope against all hope that it won’t. A pass will be hurled magnificently into the air, hope will reign supreme as the ball takes flight, and, then, tragically, it will not reach its intended receiver, but, instead it will be unmercifully picked-off, plucked out of mid-air, intercepted. It doesn’t really matter if ...

It’s possible that Iowa’s depth at wide receiver is being overlooked by some of college football’s analysts. Much of the talk this offseason has been focused on the stellar defensive line that returns for the Hawkeyes or the inexperienced offensive line that leaves several unanswered questions. The running back situation has also been a hot topic. With attention diverted elsewhere, Iowa’s depth at wide receiver isn't getting the respect it deserves. Heading into his senior season, wideout Derrell Johnson-Koulianos is ...

Terms such as Convict U and Thug U are just media disguised terms for N***** U and P********** U. The media has fueled the hatred which college football fans across the nation have taken to heart. The University of Miami should have been a Cinderella story, but instead have become the poster child for unruly behavior. Where did the hate come from? Why did the media start the frenzy which still haunts the Miami football team until ...

My recent discussion with Nickel Rover over at BC about his complete overrating of UT’s offensive skill talent (particularly at QB) sparked me to thinking about what it is we’re missing to make a legitimate title run in 2010. We’ll start with the offense, then we’ll move over to defense in a couple of days, then we’ll finish up with special teams. So, what does OU need to run their ...

The best NCAA football Conference still resides in the Southeast, but the next three conferences (Big 10, Big 12 & PAC 10) are neck and neck in the battle to overtake the SEC.Begin Slideshow

College football has, over the past two decades or so, been all about scoring. It seems as if the days of the great 9-6 or 7-3 games are behind us, as the clear emphasis has been placed on scoring points. A lot of points. But there are programs in the country that excel at keeping the other teams off the scoreboard. And if the saying about defenses winning championships is true, then it's quite possible that the ...

Late Monday evening, "The Decision" was made. This time, it was made by Jarrod Uthoff and he did not have an hour long, pointless show to announce his decision. Instead, he made his decision to join the Badgers much more of a private matter, and he made sure he told the other teams what he was doing as soon as possible so they could move on to new prospects. On Sunday, we found out that he would make ...

The road to a BCS game is surely a long and grueling one for any team. But for some, it can be a little easier depending on the way their schedule sets up. While schools like Florida, Alabama, Miami, and others all have a daunting set of games on tap for the 2010 season, there are a few teams that have lucked out and benefited from a not-so-tough slate. While no team has an easy schedule, ...

Heading into the college football season, only 30 teams mathematically have a chance to win the national championship. Only 25 percent. A quarter of 120 schools equals 30. You don’t need a Masters degree in mathematics to figure that out. I have my degree in common sense. Heading into college basketball, each and every team mathematically has a chance to win the national championship. In every other sport to include English Premiership football, each and every team mathematically has ...
