Read moreBlogPoll: Week 3 Ballot
Here’s our latest ballot for the SB Nation BlogPoll. Lots of movement based on lots of comparative assumptions; next couple weeks will help figure a lot out, for now it’s a lot of speculating based on a whopping two results for everyone.

Read moreA Nice write-up on Nickell Robey
A Nice write-up on Nickell Robey I missed this from this morning… Nickell Robey, 18, stands at just 5-foot-8 and 165 pounds but displays an alarming willingness to challenge players who have six or more inches and 50 or more pounds on him. The scrappy Florida product made four tackles during Sunday’s scrimmage, including one bone-crunching […]

Read moreHeadlinin’: Disgraced Evans officially out at Georgia
Making the morning rounds. • Unhappy trails. To no one’s surprise, Damon Evans appears to be officially out as Georgia athletic director following his tear-filled, panty-wielding DUI arrest with a younger woman in the passenger seat last Wednesday, minutes before the start of a new, $550,000-per-year contract. Evans reportedly met with university lawyers over the […]
Read moreMy 10 Favorite Players to Watch in College Football
This list isn’t necessarily made of up the best players in college football–though some are very good to great–but the ones that I get the most fun out of watching. I try to see 15-20 games every Saturday, but when these players flash on the screen, my eyes tend to linger a little longer. B.J. […]

Read moreHeadlinin’: Their old SEC home is on Seminoles’ radar, just in case
Making the morning rounds. • Unconquered, but still open to a good deal. The possibility is still "remote" at this point, but the notion of joining an expanding SEC in the coming game of Conference Expansion Dominoes has at least crossed Florida State’s mind, according to coach Jimbo Fisher, who told reporters at the ACC’s […]
Read moreLane Kiffin on Tim Tebow: ‘Eventually I think that he’ll be a special player like he always has been’
The question directed at USC coach Lane Kiffin was off-topic but not untimely: “What do you think of Tim Tebow’s chances in the NFL?” Kiffin coached in the NFL, of course, and coached against the former Florida quarterback last season in the SEC. Kiffin also recruited Tebow way back when. As Tebow embarks on a […]
