Another week is in the books, and after all the games have been played I still feel like I will see Alabama playing Oregon for the national championship this year. Both teams seem to be having everything click on offense and defense at this point, and are separating themselves from the rest of the competition. Also, with conference play starting …
Notes from around the college football nation: Pitt stomps Hokies and Tide is still rolling
Let’s just get our earplugs out now, because this week will be nothing but “Notre Dame is back!” talk after their win over Michigan State, a darkhorse national championship contender. Arkansas’ disastrous season off both off and on-field issues just got a little longer after playing Alabama this past weekend, shutout in Fayatteville for the first time since 1966, …
Notes from around the college football nation: SEC and PAC-12 embarrassed while UF is #1 again
Another week is in the books and you might as well call it “Upset” Saturday. No ranked team was safe, even in the SEC or PAC-12. A lot of teams flexed their muscles on Saturday and showed why they are top ranked teams, while others had people scratching their head over the results. Arkansas…really? Wisconsin…what was that? And do we …
Notes from around the college football nation: Kick off is here and the Tide roll
Finally, the season is here! After week 1 you are either really excited about the rest of the season (Oregon fans), or you cringe at what will happen next (Penn State fans).

Stay tuned this season for celebrity rehab, if you are an LSU fan.

Notes from around the college football nation: Honey Badger out and War of Words
Wow! Now that is some news. LSU kicking the “Honey Badger” off their team right before the season starts. We are less that three weeks away from the season starting and I am sure LSU can grab a solid replacement from Penn State before the season starts, since they already took a Penn State QB. Congratulations to Southern Poly Tech …
Notes from around the college football nation: No more polls and Fisher out at FSU
The preseason polls are in, time to check where your team landed and start complaining for the next month about how “team X” is better than “team Z” and should be ranked higher. Besides the usual arrest report (ex-Auburn ex-Arkansas State Michael Dyer), nothing new to talk about unless you’re a Penn State fan. Let’s get onto some news and …
Notes from around college football nation: Penn State Hammered and LSU is after kids now
The hammer has been dropped on Penn State and now we get to see how long it takes for the program to fall apart and get put back together again. Penn State needs to talk to SMU and ask for some advice on how to play against the big boys with a bunch of walk-ons for the next four years. …
Notes from around college football nation: Penn State kicked out of Big-10 and Oregon upgrades
We are so much closer to kick-off and the clock currently stands at 41 days and counting, this season bringing much needed relief to college football fans.

Notes from around college football nation: Duke to the SEC and Apple Cup decides it all
College football season is already upon us and done for the year. At least it is to video game fans with the release of EA NCAA 2013. Now instead of reading stories about Notre Dame meaning something again or conference realignment, you can play with your favorite team and take them to the title game. The annual release of the …
Notes from around college football nation: SEC scared and Texas A&M is desperate
Another week is in the books, and that brings us inching slightly closer to kick-off. As much as I hate this long layoff, it allows me to enjoy the regular season even more when it finally begins. Let’s get into some news and thoughts before they decide to change the playoff system again. 1) Texas A&M comes off like …
