According to OrangeBloods.com, who has been all over the expansion news, SEC commissioner Mike Slive has told Texas that if it joins the SEC he will move two teams from the SEC West to the SEC to accomodate the Longhorns. The two teams moving would be Alabama and Auburn. It’s hard to imagine a SEC with [Continue]
Last season, Mark Ingram walked away with the Heisman Trophy. Usually that makes a player untouchable because of his rare playmaking ability. Taking a player of that caliber off the field is almost unthinkable, but Ingram’s case is a little strange. First of all, last year was a weak season for the Heisman Trophy. None of [Continue]
Updated: January 8th (1:39 AM CT) The 2009 BCS National Championship was just handed out, about three hours ago to the Alabama Crimson Tide. In today’s world, that’s already old news. Around five weeks ago I released a top 25 for 2010 with Alabama ranked #11. I underestimated what the Crimson Tide had returning on defense (despite [Continue]
In college football, it really doesn’t get any better than Florida-Alabama. Saturday’s game matches the nation’s top two teams (by the national rankings) and will decide who plays in the national championship game in January.

If Alabama and Florida can make it through the next week unscathed, the winner of their game in the SEC Championship game will meet for a spot in the national championship game. The loser will go to at least the Sugar Bowl, while the argument will be made that the loser might just be the [Continue]
My picks for this week’s biggest college football games: #9 LSU at #3 Alabama: The mood in Tuscaloosa has been quiet and subdued since Terrence Cody’s blocked kicks paved the way for the Crimson Tide to survive against Tennessee. That win was followed by a bye week, where most of the attention around the city was focused [Continue]

The LSU Tigers are also, in the words of the very popular Lee Corso, still sneaking around the chicken coop. On October 10th both faced their biggest tests on paper, but only one survived. LSU fell to #1 [Continue]
