As the college season makes the turn for the home stretch, it is clearly time to start talking about who gets whacked — particularly given this weekend’s Battle of the Buyouts in Lincoln. This year’s coaching carousel seems destined to be as bloody as the last 6 episodes of the Sopranos.
Yeah, I’ll fucking […]
Our opening offensive play - a 58 yard broken play McCoy TD pass to Jordan Shipley - told us all we needed to know about the eventual outcome of the game, the quality of Iowa St, the bizarre consistency of a Gene Chizik defense, the current state of our offense, and the unyielding inanity of […]
How exciting!

Corn fed chicks. Too bad you can’t make meth out of corn.

In the Greatest game of all time (that week), the Greatest team in college football history (USC) went up against the Greatest player in college football history (Vince Young) and the Greatest player won in dramatic fashion.

Sam Bradford Oklahoma 21 for 23, 363 yards, 3 TDs, W by 69
Todd Reesing Kansas 20 for 29, 261 yards, 4 […]
2007 Longhorn Defense… What to Expect? The Unexpected
Defense wins championships. My 6th grade PE teacher taught me that. He also taught us that if you wear early 80’s style running shorts during the hurdler’s stretch, people could see your junk. So, in honor of Coach Papa, and the fact Colt […]
I live by the Golden Rule: “He who has the gold sets the rules”.
Apparently, the stewards of the NCAA agree with me.
The BCS schools (members of the ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac Ten, SEC and Notre Dame) average about $12M PROFIT per year from football while Bowl […]
Iowa St football: a vortex of suck
In meteorogical terms, a cyclone is an area of low atmospheric pressure characterized by inward spiraling winds. In football terms, a Cyclone is a negligible football entity characterized by inward looking fans spiraling out of control with giddy optimism from a marginal hire. Aside from their WNBA […]
