Next year, 3-3 Penn State at 3-2 Michigan, both winless in the conference in mid-October, would still hold some playoff implications 😂

"So, Kirk. A fourth loss for the Vols. What do you make of their playoff case?" "Well, Chris, I want you to look past the 0-4 record against ranked opponents. This is a team who played an SEC schedule, who could get hot at any minute if the committee just gives them a chance."

Regular season implications gone. Losing doesn’t matter. Endless transferring. Minimal loyalty to schools. Everything about money. Conference regionality gone. Rankings rigged for two conferences (primarily one). Every year College Football gets worse and worse. Very sad.

• First 3OT game of the year • First D2 over D1 (non-scholly) upset of the year • Forced 3OT on this absolute bomb Yeah college football is all the way back. 😍
D2 Ohio Dominican who went 5-5 last season and has an enrollment of 1200 kids just beat FCS Morehead St with this 4th & 12 bomb. They went on to score in 3OT and then hold Morehead State for the win. COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS BAAAAACK

Texas judge Ken Curry said Brendan Sorsby would suffer “irreparable harm” if he wasn’t allowed to play for Texas Tech. Yeah, that’s exactly the point, you dummy. Good job ruining the integrity of sports. Column for @yahoosports sports.yahoo.com/college-foo…

There's zero justification of NCAA Tournament expansion.
Worst bubble losses of the weekend go to: Auburn (home L to Ole Miss) Cal (home L to Pitt) USC (15-point home L to Nebraska) UCLA (road L to Minnesota)

Two weeks ago. I'm pretty much over Nate Oats bringing up the "I was a high school coach" thing as a virtue signal that he cares about "opportunities" for HS recruits. He cares about winning with whoever the courts will let him put on the floor.
"You kind of have to if they're eligible and somebody else is gonna get them." While not for it, @nate_oats talked to @PeterBurnsESPN & @ChrisDoering about recruiting former G-League players on #SECThisMorning! @AlabamaMBB | #RollTide

Sources: Auburn and Notre Dame have agreed to a home-and-home in 2027 and 2028. The 2027 game is in South Bend and the 2028 game is in Auburn. The schools have never played in football.

24 years ago Welles Crowther gave his life for others on 9/11. This is probably the best story @espn has ever done. As the memory of 9/11 fades, it’s important to remember what true bravery looks like in the face of evil. Watch this:
