  • Notre Dame And Usc Rival Has Longstanding History
    By: Gen Wright | - It is the college football rival that's between University of Notre Dame and University of Southern California and it is one of the most highly publicized, sensational rivals in the history of football. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans have had a longstanding history of rival games since 1926. The trophy is the Jeweled Shillelagh and the current champions are USC but that doesn't mean there won't be any more rivals between the two. These two teams are considered some of the most ...

  • Michigan State's 2010 Football Program Is In Critical Need Of A Course Correction Immediately
    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2010 Ed Bagley

    When Mark Dantonio took over as head coach of the Michigan State University football program 3 years ago, no one was more excited and clapping louder than this former athlete and Michigan State graduate. It was easy to understand why.

    In my last two seasons of watching the Spartans as a student-athlete, Michigan State players and their coach Duffy Daugherty won both Big Ten and National Championships in 1965 and 1966. After graduating in ...

  • Notre Dame's End To 2009
    By: Freddie Brister | - Everyone the media included thought that 2009 was the year tables were going to turn for the once mighty Notre Dame. But rather it was the beginning of their misery not withstanding quite a favorable schedule as well as top classmen with a lot of experience. Their performance for 2009 was as bad as 2008 performance. This result saw their chief coach Charlie Weis lose his job. In addition to this Notre Dame turned down any bid following their 6-6 season.

  • Can Oregon Still Win In 2010
    By: Freddie Brister | - Oregon Duck's 2009 season was one of its kind of course, they did not disappoint. Once they got the chance, they were up to the challenge and this is the inspiration that they take home the Pac 10 conference title. Oregon also featured in the Rose Bowl after fifteen years in the sidelines. It was their offense that did the perfect job when they humbled USC who have been long time winners of Pac 10 at home. Oregon did not miss their unfortunate moments and of significance to remember is that of t ...

  • College Football Week 12 - Ohio State And Oregon Earn Big Victories With Big Implications
    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

    In a great example of too little too late, there were 4 upsets of AP Top 25 teams in college football's 12th week and none of them had any real impact. On the other hand, two favorites won big time road games with big implications as Ohio State buried Michigan 21-10, and Oregon held off a very pesky Arizona team, 44-41.

    Last week the 9th-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes (10-2) beat Iowa to earn their first trip to the Rose Bowl in 13 years. By ...

  • College Football Week 11 - Southern Cal's 7 Years Of Excellence Ends, Stanford Wins, 55 - 21
    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

    It's over for Southern California. Coach Pete Carroll will be dining with some lesser light Hollywood celebrities in the near future.

    Gone are the USC streaks of 7 straight BCS bowls, 7 straight 11-win seasons, and 7 straight top-4 AP poll finishes. Gone also is USC's 7-year stranglehold on the Pac-10 Conference title.

    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

    When the train was ready to pull out of the station this year at East Lansing, the Michigan State University Spartans had a chance to enjoy every stop on their way to an unbeaten season.

    They could have run the table at the pool hall. They could have had a scenic and exciting journey, rising right up to become one of the elite teams in the country. In addition to the usual stops on the journey, the Spartans had two of their three biggest ...

  • Ed Bagley's Top 25 Poll - Week 9 - Oregon Is Moving Up Fast
    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

    Oregon's 47-20 upset victory over Southern California was beyond huge this week, causing a significant shift in who is where in my Top 25 Poll for college football's 9th week of play. Here is how I see it:

    1) Alabama (8-0) - The Crimson Tide was idle this week, and it was probably for the best as Florida won big, but I am not moving the Gators back to No. 1 yet. Let's see how Alabama does when LSU comes to town next week.

    The USC Trojans had won at least 11 games a sea ...

    By: Brent Warnken | - The Big Ten is always at the forefront of college athletics, but how will the conference fare this college basketball season? Will the Big Ten teams make a gigantic splash on the national stage, or will these Midwestern powerhouse programs flop under the pressure? Many college basketball experts believe that the Big Ten has the potential to send up to six teams to the NCAA Tournament in 2010, and the buzz around the NCAA seems to be overwhelmingly positive for this league. Let's take stock of ...

  • Ed Bagley's Top 25 Poll - Week 7
    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

    It was a good week to be Florida, Alabama, Texas, Cincinnati, Boise State, Iowa and TCU—all won, and all are the only unbeaten major teams left in the nation. Every one of them are beatable, the only monster thing about any of them are the college publicity departments that promote them. Here's my Top 25 for the 7th week:

    1) Alabama (7-0) - Hosted and beat a really game 5-1 South Carolina team 20-6, and is on track for a head-on col ...

    By: Ed Bagley | - Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley

    Just when you thought some sense of stability might have returned to college football during the halfway point of the season, any semblance belies the truth that at least four more teams have become frauds in the national title chase—Kansas, Ohio State, Virginia Tech and Nebraska.

    Kansas had raced to a perfect 5-0 start. Virginia Tech lost its opener, Ohio State lost its second game, and Nebraska lost its third game. All three had l ...

  • Ncaa Football Tickets - The Best Week Three Matchups In The Pac-10
    By: Brent Warnken | - Week three is a great time in college football. Teams are still playing their non-conference schedule, but since typically two games have already been played the relative strengths of the football teams can be analyzed. As it is, we're working from just one game in (as of Saturday the 5th of September); however, looking ahead we can tell that there are going to be at least three monster games in week three. Even if these games sell out, which they are likely to do, you will probably be able to g ...

  • Ncaa Football Tickets - Teams Lose Stars To Injuries
    By: Brent Warnken | - It is only a few weeks into the NCAA college football season, but already some teams are grappling with injuries to key players on their teams. Most injuries were normal play-related incidents, while one was a freak accident that raised awareness to a real danger for all players. The worse injuries are those that take stars out for the rest of the season, which some teams are now dealing with the first week of October. Regardless of injuries, NCAA Football tickets will remain popular, and fans c ...

    By: Brent Warnken | - The teams in the Big 10 may only have to games under their respective belts, but that doesn't mean that they haven't revealed some key aspects of what this season has in store. None of the teams have tackled conference opponents yet, meaning they are warming up for their biggest games of the season. After only two weeks, though, the teams are already dividing themselves into the teams with potential to impress and those who will have to dig themselves out to make a bowl game. Be there for some o ...

  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tickets - Offensive Coordinator Get Heave-ho
    By: Brent Warnken | - NFL tradition seems to dictate that any coaching changes generally happen in the offseason, save the few dismissals midway through incredibly-rough seasons. That is why the Tamp Bay Buccaneers' latest move is an interesting one in the league. Just before the final preseason game, the Bucs decided to part ways with offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski and replace him with their current quarterbacks coach Greg Olson. What makes the dismissal especially curious is that Jagodzinki is a relatively ...

  • Top 3 Pac-10 Teams For The 2009 College Football Season
    By: Gen Wright | - The USC Trojans have been an unstoppable force in the Pac-10 so far but this year may be a different ball game after all. This is a team that has been a stockpile for talent for quite some time now but now that some of the best ones have left for NFL, the team faces a shortage in talent. Filling the gaps left by start quarterback Mark Sanchez and lineback Rey Maualuga will be a tough job indeed for coach Pete Carroll. Sure USC has been a gold mine for talents but not even they are perhaps equipp ...

    Brees impressed everyone with his yardage totals, tallying 5,069 yards this season. The total puts him just 15 yards under the legendary Dan Marino's single season record. He is one of only two players to reach over 5,000 yards in a s ...

The Ball State trigger-man of that potent offense is Nate Davis who had an amazing sophomore season in 2007 tossing 30 touchdowns to just 6 interceptions in his 478 pass attempts.

They should be ok on offense this year, returning QB Chad Henne and Running Back Mike Hart to lead the way. However the defense lost a bunch.

    By: Genna Waistell | - If you are thinking of relocating 50 miles or more from your present location, you have to consider a lot of factors before making the move. You must know the nature of the job market, the quality of schools and the crime rate of the area.

    The prime consideration, over and above all these factors is the housing costs in the new area. Given that the average housing costs in most major cities are much higher than the national average, it becomes difficult to find a home near the ant ...
