Grant of Rights Deal Great for ACC; Cincinnati and UConn Biggest Losers
Posted by klownboy in college basketball, college football on April 22, 2013
I wonder what those bloggers are thinking now. Are those haters/hacks from West Virginia sad that the Atlantic Coast Conference is here to stay (at least for the next 14 years)? Those are some of the questions I had on my mind when the ACC announced that it and its presidents agreed to a grant […]
Something Is Up with Manti Te’o
Posted by klownboy in college football on January 16, 2013
By now we all have heard the mother of all hoaxes. That story about Manti Te’o’s girlfriend dying, which he said inspired him to play better as he helped the Fighting Irish get to the BCS National Championship, turned out to be a hoax. Deadspin.com (God bless Deadspin) reported it could find no record of […]
Manti Te’o Should Have Won the Heisman
Posted by klownboy in college football on December 8, 2012
Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel, a.k.a “Johnny Football”, became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, edging out Notre Dame LB Manti Te’o and Kansas State QB Collin Klein for second and third place, respectively. I have a fundamental problem with the Heisman voting. First of all, I view the Heisman Trophy as the […]
Rebirth of a Football Fan (Part Two)
Posted by klownboy in college football on November 27, 2012
By Lauren Woode Follow her on Twitter: @LaurenIsLive *Continuation from the previous column by Lauren Woode* My mission to watch 3 college football games back to back to back last Saturday continued after OSU/Michigan. Next up, Florida vs. Florida State. I would have something intelligent and entertaining to say here, but I fell asleep at […]
Rebirth of a Football Fan (Part One)
Posted by klownboy in college football on November 25, 2012
By Lauren Woode Follow her on Twitter: @LaurenIsLive I have a confession to make. I am a lapsed football fan. This year I have watched fewer football games than I can ever remember and I’m talking elementary school. Why is this do you ask? Trying to start your own business while looking for a job […]
Bill O’Brien Should Be College Football’s Coach of the Year
Posted by klownboy in college football on November 25, 2012
Man, I have not been so wrong about something like this in a long-ass time. Penn State’s football team not only beat a good Wisconsin team that is going to play for the Big Ten conference championship, it finished 8-4. Yup, you read that right: 8 wins with 4 losses. This is the same Penn […]
Maryland to the Big Ten Makes No Sense
Posted by klownboy in college basketball, college football on November 18, 2012
So much for the talks of realignment dying down after the Notre Dame move. The University of Maryland is in talks of leaving the ACC for the Big Ten (B1G) Conference, and an announcement could come Monday morning. College president Wallace Loh and athletics director Kevin Anderson are spearheading the talks with the B1G. Look, […]
Texas A&M’s Win Validates SEC as the Best
Posted by klownboy in college football on November 10, 2012
A lot of folks have one of the following feelings after Texas A&M pulling off the upset of the year over Alabama today: one of joy, relieve, and trepidation. Here’s a feeling I think fans of the Southeastern Conference should have after A&M’s win: validation. Validation that the SEC is once again the baddest college […]
K-State, not Oregon, Is the #2 Team in the Nation
Posted by klownboy in college football, sports blogging on November 4, 2012
Sometimes I wonder what games the poll voters are watching. For some crazy-ass reason, Oregon is still ahead of Kansas State for the #2 spot in both the AP and USA Today rankings. Hmmm, let’s see. K-State – previously ranked #2 in the BCS – beat down a good Oklahoma State team 44-30 on the […]
