texas-longhorns-texas-am-aggies

The rivalry between the Texas Longhorns and Texas A&M Aggies was arguably the best in college football before the latter school left the Big 12 to join the SEC in 2012.

stack_attack1

The divisional playoffs are set and hockey is back. Those are just a couple of things that The Stack is excited about on this Monday morning. The wild card round certainly wasn’t as exciting as we’ve seen in the past. To be frank, it was quite boring. The divisional playoffs, however, should be very good. …

Orange Bowl rep to NIU: “We didn’t want you here” (Huskies don’t prove him wrong)

niu

It appears ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit has a soul mate. Or at least someone who shares his feelings that the NIU Huskies don’t belong in the BCS Orange Bowl. During the selection show he called their placement “a joke.” Can’t Northern Illinois get any respect? I guess the nation’s longest winning streak and back to back …

The only Notre Dame and Alabama brother combination ever

bamadame

During the Civil War, you often literally had brother vs. brother. According to the Alabama Crimson Tide fight song they are “Dixie’s football pride.” And Indiana (despite the fact that it often votes with the old Confederacy these days in elections) was a Union state.

buffalo-wild-wings-300x225

One thing I can’t stand about college football are bowl games that have just the corporate shill as their name.

Now Buffalo Wild Wings took this corporatization of the …
