What did we just learn from Joe Paterno? Erecting a statue for someone while they're still alive and their legacy is not yet fully formed is risky business. And sometimes backfires. There's already a Cam Newton statue at Auburn. Again, something scandalous could arise, especially given Newton's past history. The Bo Jackson statue I'm cool with; his career is long over. As … [Read more...] about #26 Auburn Tigers: College Football 77 in 77

#29 Missouri Tigers: College Football 77 in 77
"Interesting move Cotton, let's see if it pays off for them," the words of Jason Bateman's character in "Dodgeball" and my thoughts on Mizzou jumping ship for the SEC. I understand why they did, but a team that hasn't had a conference championship since 1969 (when it was the Big 8 conference) won't be getting another one for a long time probably. But they'll still be a good … [Read more...] about #29 Missouri Tigers: College Football 77 in 77
#55 Vanderbilt Commodores: College Football 77 in 77
Last year's weakest link of Vanderbilt football was the passing game, as they ranked 97th in the nation in that department. That stat is a bit misleading though, as the air attack, and the offense itself took a major turn for the better when Jordan Rodgers replaced Larry Smith in mid-season. Rodgers is of course, the younger brother of Green Bay Packers signal caller and NFL … [Read more...] about #55 Vanderbilt Commodores: College Football 77 in 77
#58 Ole Miss Rebels: College Football 77 in 77
The Ole Miss Rebels haven't won the SEC since 1963. 1963! And they haven't been to a bowl since 2009. Yet I think they'll be better this season for some reason. Or at least serviceable. Somewhat competitive. One thing's for sure- they'll end that 15 game losing streak to SEC opponents. … [Read more...] about #58 Ole Miss Rebels: College Football 77 in 77
Texas A&M SEC welcome! (NSFW Video)
Texas A&M University has made a welcome to the SEC video, and it's barely NSFW. It's not vulgar or pornographic. Well, when you have a young girl who looks like that saying "GO COCKS," the language is a little not safe for work. And the entertainment value is so poor, that it's being really bad, makes it NSFW. Enjoy college football fans … [Read more...] about Texas A&M SEC welcome! (NSFW Video)
Steve Spurrier coaches South Carolina spring session shirtless (video)
Shirtless driving season has already started in the south, and South Carolina Gamecocks coach Steve Spurrier is embracing it. But given both his age, and what he's accomplished in college football, I think "the ol' ball coach" or "the visor" now has license to do whatever he wants. Maybe we'll start calling him "the shirtless wonder" soon too. … [Read more...] about Steve Spurrier coaches South Carolina spring session shirtless (video)
LSU Honey Badger Video, App, Song Drinking Game
Watching the college football national title game Monday night, you might have noticed that Brent Musburger referred to LSU cornerback Tyrann Mathieu as "the Honey Badger" as much as possible. And when I say "you might have noticed" I actually mean it was painfully obvious to anyone who watched even a nanosecond of the game. Was he trying to be hip? Did he not know the … [Read more...] about LSU Honey Badger Video, App, Song Drinking Game
Beware LSU Honey Badger Tyrann Mathieu, Physically and Psychologically
Funny thing about tonight's college football national title game, the biggest star on one side, LSU, their Heisman Trophy finalist is actually a cornerback: Tyrann Mathieu. Another funny thing about the game, he's trying to get a psychological edge by looking up the names of mothers of Alabama football players for some trash talking on the field.
