    Another Memorable Night in Kinnick?

    Full disclosure, I hate Penn State football.  After the Jerry Sandusky scandal, I never want them to have success in football.  I understand the kids on the team now had nothing to do with what happened, but the fans that have never seen any necessary blame for the Paterno drive me absolutely CRAZY.  Not to […]

    What is a “Mean Green”?

    The North Texas Mean Green will be rolling into Iowa City this weekend to take on the Hawkeyes and collect their $900,000 check.  Now, let’s hope they leave town with their collective tails between their legs and not celebrating a victory.  I love their mascot, in my opinion, that’s a top 5 mascot name in […]

    This week in the Group of Five: Week 1

    The return of college football is right up there among the most required activities ever. 2017 has been a beast, but maybe the time stretching quality of the news cycle these days will spill over to CFB as well, and it won’t seem like the season is over in 3 hours. In 2017, the non-P5 […]
