    2012 College Football Season – Week 9 BCS Standings

    The SEC continues to dominate with a record five teams in the top 10, but it’s clear that Alabama are a leg ahead of the rest, dominating the number 1 spot. Kansas State, Notre Dame and LSU (without even playing) all enjoyed Florida losing to Georgia and falling to #7, while Oregon kept their #4 spot in the standings after beating one of the weakest teams in the nation.

    2012 College Football Season – Week 9 Rankings

    A week that didn’t see a change at the top of the rankings (Alabama still perfect and strong) of the AP Poll, but a move up for Oregon, Kansas State, Notre Dame and even the resting LSU, thanks to Georgia ruining Florida’s season, opening up the SEC East.

    College Football – Only Six Undefeated Teams Left

    Things are getting a whole of a lot simpler in the BCS picture of the 2012 College Football season, with only six teams left holding an undefeated record: The National champions, Alabama Crimson Tide, in the SEC; Kansas State Wildcats in the Big 12; Louisville Cardinals in the Big East; Oregon Ducks in the Pac-12; and Notre Dame.

  • Georgia Bulldogs – Nothing Soft About Jarvis Jones and Todd Gurley

    Georgia Bulldogs – Nothing Soft About Jarvis Jones and Todd Gurley

    Who controls the SEC East now? A matter of opinion and computers, but the Georgia Bulldogs proved there’s nothing soft about this team, as the rushing game, led by Todd Gurley and a ball-hawking defense, led by Jarvis Jones, was simply too much for Florida to handle.

  • Notre Dame Fighting Irish – Everett Golson Proves Everyone Wrong

    Notre Dame Fighting Irish – Everett Golson Proves Everyone Wrong

    For some reason, this game was supposed to be about the Oklahoma Sooners proving to everyone how “fake” the Notre Dame Fighting Irish are. Instead, it was more proof that the best defense in the nation, led by Manti Te’o, can handle anything someone throws at them, while Everett Golson proved this team does have a quarterback and some offense to show for it.

    College Football – Chances of Undefeated Teams Losing

    Each week is just a wait for one of the undefeated teams to lose and clear up some space and confusion at the top of the BCS standings, although it seems highly unlikely Alabama (vs Mississippi State), Florida (vs Georgia), Kansas State (vs Texas Tech) and Oregon (vs Colorado) will lose in week 9. Notre Dame? They have the trickiest game of all, playing in Oklahoma.

  • Kansas State Wildcats – Always Getting Screwed by the BCS

    Kansas State Wildcats – Always Getting Screwed by the BCS

    The BCS standings, the coaches and other polls; they’re all just a popularity contest, often decided on style and the legendary status of a program instead of what it actually does on the football field, and that is why Kansas State have always been denied playing in a BCS Bowl as an at-large team.

  • Michigan Wolverines – Denard Robinson Chasing the Quarterback Rushing Record

    Michigan Wolverines – Denard Robinson Chasing the Quarterback Rushing Record

    Despite not matching up to earl expectations, Denard Robinson of Michigan is having another special year, well on course to become the record holder for rushing yards as a quarterback during a college football career, about three games from snatching it away from Pat White.

    The Best State in College Football

    How do you decide what state deserves the bragging rights of being the best in the nation of College Football? Different conferences and too short of a season can’t help us completely decide, but according to the records compiled by redditor MrTheSpork, it’s probably Oklahoma or Oregon.

    2012 College Football Season – Week 8 BCS Standings

    The second edition of the BCS standing in the 2012 season still has the SEC dominating, with 4 teams (Alabama, Florida, LSU, Georgia) in the top 10, but the Pac-12 is just behind them with the Oregonians and USC. The Big 12 has two teams, with Kansas State climbing into the top 3, which drops Oregon, the number 2 team on the AP Poll into fourth.
