Curt Cignetti walked into his first Indiana press conference and told a room full of people who barely cared about Indiana football that he wins. “Google me.” The Hoosiers had gone 9-27 in the three years before he got there. They were the first program in FBS history to reach 700 losses. Two years after...

Four of the five coaches on this list are still employed because their schools can’t afford to fire them right now. That’s what the college football hot seat 2026 actually is: programs trapped by their own contracts, counting down to the year the buyout gets cheap enough to pull the trigger. The obvious name is...

FIFA just tripled the price of a World Cup final ticket to $32,970, for a tournament they promised would top out at $1,550, and Donald Trump told the press he wouldn’t pay $1,000 to watch a group stage match at the same tournament he spent two years championing. WWE cut nearly 30 wrestlers two days...

College football is in the middle of the best stretch of its modern era, and I think it might be quietly building toward something genuinely ugly. The playoff expanded. The ratings are enormous. The talent on college fields is as good as it has ever been. But there is a difference between a sport that...

The NCAA is about to add eight more teams to March Madness and the only people who asked for it were the people who already have the most. That is the whole story. Everything else is marketing. The basketball tournament goes from 68 to 76 teams, likely starting next season, and the CFP is somewhere...

Ohio State just put four players in the top 11 picks of the 2026 NFL Draft. Carnell Tate went fourth overall to the Titans. Arvell Reese fifth to the Giants. Sonny Styles seventh to the Commanders. Caleb Downs eleventh to the Cowboys. Back-to-back years. Four first-round picks each time. The Ohio State NFL factory is...

The SEC has won one national title in the last three years, and Mississippi just rewrote its tax code over it. That’s where we are right now. House Bill 4014 passed the Mississippi House 76 to 32. If it clears the Senate and lands on the governor’s desk, college athletes in Mississippi will pay zero...

The CFP committee has a mystery criteria is killing marquee nonconference games, and USC–Notre Dame is just the start. Fans deserve real answers, not vibes. If you’ve been feeling like college football is slowly turning into “schedule safe, pray later,” you’re not crazy. The College Football Playoff committee has created a world where the smartest...

College Football Playoff expansion is the dumbest conversation in the sport right now. The Big Ten wants 24 teams, the SEC wants 16, and somehow we’re all supposed to act like this is what’s holding the game back. It’s not. It’s just the cleanest way for the people at the top to squeeze more money...

I am not doing a long warm up. We are going straight to the picks for the CFP Semifinals. I have Ole Miss over Miami. I have Indiana over Oregon. I will tell you the one way each pick can break, so you can argue with me like an adult in the comments. If you...

As I am sure you have heard, Stranger Things ended on New Years Eve. The finale was met with a wide range of opinions. Some people loved it, others hated it. I am of the opinion that the finale was mid. Really though the internet is trying to convince the world that tonight January 7th...

The 12-team CFP was supposed to end the arguing. Instead it built an argument factory, because now the bracket itself is the villain. The whole sales pitch was clean. Be elite, earn the bye, get the edge. Except the “edge” keeps looking like a deep freeze while somebody else is out there playing real, live...

I’m not doing the soft version of this. I’m not doing the polite version of this. I’m not doing the “at least we beat Michigan” group hug. Ryan Day is a fraud. He beat Michigan this year and he acted like the job was done. Like the rest of college football was supposed to bow....

Why do stars have to hold press conferences just to confirm they still go to school there? That question feels dramatic until you look at what happened on December 30, 2025. Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams said he intends to return in 2026 and not enter the transfer portal. He said it publicly while speculation...

If Clemson is “family,” why do the biggest paychecks get cut first? Clemson just moved on from OC Garrett Riley and assistant Mickey Conn after a 7-6 season. Dabo’s explanation was the classic clean-up line: “We just did not get the production and the results that we needed.” ESPN says Riley and Conn will not...

On Dec. 27 in Orlando, BYU came back and beat Georgia Tech 25-21 in the Pop-Tarts Bowl, and the ending went nuclear online for one simple reason: somebody actually cared. BYU scored 15 points in the fourth quarter, took the lead with 2:00 left, then sealed it with an end-zone interception with six seconds on...

This is about the College Football Playoff finally turning into the part you actually argue about, not the part where you politely pretend every seed is equal. As of 2025-12-22, the quarterfinals are set for Dec. 31 and Jan. 1, and the bracket stopped being a conversation starter and became a stress test. I have...

Why would a QB risk his future for your nostalgia? Why would a quarterback risk his future for your nostalgia? Like seriously. Say it out loud and listen to how insane it sounds in 2025 going into 2026. We’re watching the college football transfer portal turn into the main stage, and then we pretend bowl...
