2011 SEC Power Poll: The Final Verdict
Having stirred up a little controversy with my final BlogPoll ballot, I now turn to the task of casting the campaign’s ultimate SEC Power Poll ballot, secure in the knowledge that this is the last time I will do so for a twelve-team Southeastern Conference: 1. Alabama Crimson Tide (12-1): Yes,...
Talking Points: Saban Angry, Cowbell Dirges, and Acting Like You've Just Eaten Lunch
BREAKING: NICK SABAN ANGRY. SEC institution presidents are expected to vote on measures to curb oversigning today in Destin. In related news, Nick Saban "blamed the media for making oversigning an issue." According to GVX, he did this "angrily," which of course means he was breathing and awake. But...
2010 SEC Power Poll: The Final Ballot
I’m not going to lie to you; after staying up too late watching the national championship game and compiling my BlogPoll ballot, then spending a second snow day at home trying to figure out how to get my car to the top of my driveway, I completely forgot about putting together my postseason...
Don't Bet On It!: 2010-2011 College Football Bowl Predictions (Part VI)
My predictions for this year’s minor bowl games are behind us (and some of those games already have been played), leaving us with college football’s January slate remaining to be forecast. The next five contests on the schedule feature Bret Bielema, Jim Harbaugh, Bobby Petrino, Rich Rodriguez, and...
Four Questions for the Georgia Bulldogs: Ray Goff, Gene Chizik, Will Muschamp, and What to Do When Winning the Opening Coin Toss
The offseason between the 2009 and 2010 college football campaigns was the wackiest ever, but the coming offseason is off to a promising start as one that will give last year’s a run for its money. If you’re like me, your head is spinning just a little bit as you strive to process everything that...
Will Muschamp Named Head Coach of Florida Gators; Georgia Bulldogs Fans Throw Up in Their Mouths a Little
It has been a busy last 24 hours or so in my household. On Friday night, my family and I went to the Georgia Dome to see the AAAA high school football championship game between Chattahoochee and Starr’s Mill. On Saturday, the four of us went and got a Christmas tree, which we put up in the living...
What Urban Meyer's Retirement as the Florida Gators' Head Coach Means for Mark Richt and the Georgia Bulldogs
You’ll have to pardon me if I’m a little bit gun shy here; I bid a respectful farewell to Urban Meyer last December, after all, and he made me regret that show of decency . . . repeatedly. This time around, therefore, I come to bury Coach Meyer (metaphorically, of course), not to praise him. In...
UK Football: Will the Cats Take Advantage of a Favorable 2010 Schedule? Part III
This is the third and final post in a series of posts taking an in-depth look at the 2010 Kentucky football schedule. For the first installment go here, for the second, here. I'm not sure one should use the adjective favorable to describe any SEC football schedule, in any year, but the 2010...
Don't Bet On It!: Around the SEC
As I first began looking ahead to another lackluster weekend of college football action in the SEC, it occurred to me that there’d probably be more good games if there weren’t so many mediocre teams. Take that for whatever it’s worth as you consider the fact that I went 5-1 in last week’s league...
Don't Bet On It!: Around the SEC
I started with the national games of interest this week, so now I need to circle back around to look at the Southeastern Conference slate. My 6-1 ledger in last week’s league picks left me at 57-10 for the fall, but, honestly, I should’ve gone 7-0 against last Saturday’s sorry...
