Clemson is a great team and I doubt anyone really believes they are scared of Bama. I’ve seen some fans on here, however, claiming Clemson’s schedule is superior to Bama’s.

Say what you will about Richt, but he deserved better than a firing. The man did more for Georgia than anyone not named Herschel Walker, and for him to not even get the Frank Beamer or Les Miles treatment is a disgrace to the University of Georgia. I expected him to be gone, but not like this. Not tasteful in the slightest.

For most people a bicycle is just transportation or some fun; it is much more , it’s a sport, a way of life. For members of the Washington State University club  cycling team it is a serous effort to keep the wheels turn in.

Some folks might say Will Muschamp was too involved offensively at Florida.

That might explain why the Gators struggled moving the ball and scoring points during his final two seasons there.

Anyway, Auburn’s new defensive coordinator said he “should have been’…

Paying College Athletes Sends Wrong Message of Priorities

Paying College Athletes Sends Wrong Message of Priorities

The discussion of whether or not to pay the college athlete has gone on for years now. Both sides of this argument present a good case of evidence for and against the payment of college athletes.
