In what has to be the biggest fluke in college football so far, Texas lost its third tight end to a season-ending injury this season.
Ian Harris, who played in three games last season, will miss 2009 because of some recurrence of a stinger. Harris was replacing D.J. Grant (knee surgery), who was replacing Blaine Irby [...]

There probably won’t be much to say about Syracuse football this season, so let’s talk about it now.
The Orange were in the news quite a bit this week, and not for being blown out in any games. First-year coach Doug Marrone has already shaken things up with his quarterbacks. After naming sophomore Ryan Nassib the starter [...]

While just about every Division I-A football team has been back at it for over a week now, most of the student body is starting to filter back to campus.

Maybe its the same for Greg Paulus, [...]

New Hampshire’s own Chip Kelly is on cloud nine out in Eugene, Ore. Monday will mark one month since taking over the University of Oregon football program from the program’s winningest coach, Mike Bellotti (116-55).

Let’s take a step away from college basketball and turn our attention to some college football news for a moment.
The war of words - and whatever else you can think of - seems to be on between new Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin and everyone involved with the Florida Gators. Back in February, Kiffin falsely accused [...]

The Mountain West Conference is not giving up.
The league sent a proposal on Wednesday to the BCS to make an eight-team playoff system for Division I-A football. It calls for an end of the current BCS, where only two teams have a chance to win a national championship, and to stop using the BCS standings [...]

Texas Tech football coach Mike Leach had a deadline of 5 p.m. on Tuesday to sign a contract extension that he and the school had agreed to in principle in January. But when Tuesday evening rolled around, the contract remained unsigned.
