My Conference Rankings: 1. SEC. Without doubt here. The West is easily the best division in College Football. Even with major disappointment Georgia and a weak East division, the West is strong enough to lead the way. 2. Pac 10. Four undefeated teams. One 2-2 team that almost beat Wisconsin. One 2-2 team that crushed [...]

Week 3 is in the books. Let’s see what we learned. Arkansas looks legit. Everyone knew that Arkansas’s offense was going to be good but I had some serious doubts about their defense. Arkansas’s defense dominated Georgia for the first three quarters in their 31-24 victory which put Ryan Mallet in the Heisman discussion and [...]

Mike Leach, Texas Tech’s winningest coach, and his prolific offense is gone. So now what? Tommy Tuberville is now the Red Raiders new football coach, and with him comes some impressive records (110-60 all time) including 6 bowl wins and an undefeated season at Auburn in the toughest league in the nation, the SEC. Can [...]

A few weeks ago, right before the last hour reprieve of the Big 12 I wrote a plan to try to save the BCS status of Big East teams at risk of dropping out of the BCS if the conference was raided . It was my second try at figuring out a way to save the football Big East (my first attempt had one rather gaping hole in the logic – to be fair most “save the Big East”[...]

Just like the last four years, the road to one half of the BCS Championship game will pass through Atlanta. So, here’s my early look at which teams will be vying for the honor of playing in the 2010 SEC Championship game. I don’t believe the SEC will be much different in 2010 than it was in 2009 with the exception of some jockeying for the middle of the Western

They don’t play in a tough conference.They don’t have to play great teams every week.
Their non-conference schedule is not hard enough.
They wouldn’t last in a major conference.

TCU’s schedule has been picked apart by almost everybody associated with college football.

We’re almost ready for the football season here at SJ Radio!

We’ve been working our way through the divisions in the NFL and the NCAA conferences and this week Mark and Ben talk the AFC South. We also talk some SEC on the college side.

This week Rick and Ryan from PigskinAddiction.com will join us once again for the full hour to talk football – both on the field as well as the fantasy variety.

Mark will do his usual sports world whiparound to cover the other major stories and Ben will keep you up to date with everything happening at Sportsjabber.net.

In the midst of all the speculation that Urban Meyer will soon depart Florida for his “dream job” at Notre Dame, the Gators have given the two time national championship coach a raise. The new deal is worth $24 million over 6 years, but there’s another important number that keeps the Irish rumors alive.

If you’re a mid major program, situated in the west, and looking for an opportunity to become part of the BCS mix, expanding the Pac 10 to a twelve member league is a brilliant thought. But if you are the Pac 10, why would you do this? What do you gain with the increased membership [...]

As we all know, the undisputed champions of jersey changes is of course the Ducks from Oregon. So when other schools change their jerseys, it’s not to take the crown from Nike U. There’s usually a reason behind it. And for LSU, it’s all about promotion.

LSU’s athletics department will take advantage of the football team being on TV a lot this season by adding “LSU” to the front of the 2009 football jerseys.

This will be the first time in modern school history that the name of the school will appear on the jersey. There are no other changes to the 2009 LSU football uniform.
