Had kickoff been Thursday night, that would have been a problem. Given this area’s rich history with horrible weather and big events at this time of year, there is still a chance that the Cotton Bowl will be postponed until Saturday. ESPN and college football do not want to move this game, for many reasons,…
If college football has taught anyone anything over the last few years, it’s that nothing is ever guaranteed until it’s a reality. Players can seem like a lock to commit to a certain school, and then right as the figurative time expires another school makes the late push to bring someone on. With the addition of NIL and immediate eligibility transfers in this new era of college football, anything appears to be possible at times. After previously declaring for the 2025 NFL Draft after spending two seasons as the star for the Georgia Bulldogs, Georgia’s star quarterback Carson Beck has…
Mark Pope unleashes after Kentucky basketball loss to Georgia ” It’s unacceptable for us.” Following a tough 82-69 road loss to Georgia, Kentucky head coach Mark Pope didn’t mince words as he assessed his team’s performance.

John and Susie Q. Football Fan can’t stomach Brian Kelly. I asked Kelly about this once, a couple of years ago. Why does the average college football fan dislike LSU’s coach so strongly? Kelly offered a theory: He coached 12 years at Notre Dame, and few folks harbor neutral feelings about the Irish. You either love them or hate them. By extension, that applies to the coach. “Notre Dame is a polarizing place, in many ways,” Kelly told me in 2023. “So, for those that are on the other side of that, that can build some (animosity).” Decent theory, but that doesn’t fully…
