Paul Finebaum is doing all he can to get Riley fired. What's his beef with Riley? Does he want SC to defeat LSU in the opener? Does he send bales of hay to Traveler? Does he walk around humming 'Figth On?' Would Deion be able to recruit high school kids to SC? He isn't doing the job in Boulder. The young lady's swing above hits too close to home and below the belt. 😒 Entertaining post, thanks. But another article that proves CFB has a loooooonnnngggg off-season.

Bo to start at QB and Justin Herbert is impressed by the play of WR McConkey drafted out of Georgia. One bold training-camp prediction for every AFC team WWW.YARDBARKER.COM NFL training camps finally get into full swing this week, with veterans from all teams reporting by Wednesday. In the AFC, major questions hang over several teams. With that in mind, here... Will Justin thrive under Harbaugh?

Heard on B1G Today on BTN. THE B1G has 6.4 Million living alumni; I believe this number is without the 4 newbies. Puddles is flying into truly B1G territory. 😍

The two LA schools have brutal schedules in 2024. On every site I've seen USC has at least the 2nd strength of schedule with UCLA not far behind.

Perhaps? I think they took the vote a day early in Indy at the 'journalists' go to watering hole.

Sports Illustrated calls the media vote 'Old' B1G-centric. The Ducks deserve more respect. Big Ten Preseason Poll: Oregon Ducks Football Picked Behind Ohio State Buckeyes WWW.SI.COM You won't find a more Big Ten Conference-centric poll than the one released Monday. The Big Ten Football Preseason Poll from Cleveland.com has come out annually

Thanks for the post, Charles. I think that Penn State at No. 3 ahead of Michigan at No. 4 is a reflection of the difference in the Nittany Lions and the Wolverines' strength of schedule. College Football News ranks Michigan with the 5th most difficult schedule and Penn State with the 14th. In 2024 Penn State will not play Michigan in the regular season in 2024. Michigan leads the series 16-10. Last season Michigan won 24-15 in Happy Valley with a strong run game. In 2023 in the 2nd half, Michigan rushed the ball on 32 consecutive plays.

The Buckeyes are coming to town! Early Look: Oregon vs Ohio State - On3 WWW.ON3.COM Oregon Football will take on Ohio State in one of the Ducks' most important home games ever. Who will take this one?

I was delighted to see the 'O' between the Ohio State and Penn State logos on the B1G's official website. Open the link to see 18 and not 14 B1G logos. Not officially official until August 2nd but Puddles has been recognized as a member of an 'exclusive club.' 😁 Watch the Media Days, July 23rd through July 25th on the Big Ten Network. You'll soon see that Oregon is now in the B1G Leagues on a 'real' network. It's great to be B1G. 2024 Football Media Days #B1GMediaDays BIGTEN.ORG 2024 Football Media Days #B1GMediaDays

Go Gonzo! Why Patriots' Christian Gonzalez has an important season ahead of him WWW.YARDBARKER.COM Entering training camp, tons of attention will be on Patriots second-year cornerback Christian Gonzalez.

Let's Get It On! Oregon Ducks Football And The Revamped College Football Playoffs WWW.YARDBARKER.COM After years of questioning and second-guessing the playoff selection committee, football fans will see some dramatic changes in the 2024 playoffs. For many years, the “playoff” was a... Is it 8/31 yet?

I respect your POV. However, how long into January can the season extend? I draw the line at 17 games which is what teams that lost a champ game and are seeded 5-12 will play. I do not believe having a 32-team field like the FCS is possible. The FCS plays every game on campus except the champ game. Is FBS willing to do this? I do not see how the PO can be more inclusionary without games like last season's Fiesta Bowl beatdown of an undefeated team. Many preseason polls would have Oregon or Texas as the 5th seed hosting 12th seed Liberty in Eugene or Austin. This would be 'half-a-bye' for the P4 team and another embarrassment for Liberty. The CUSA champion should be participating in a G5 playoff and receiving a cut of the revenue from the P4 tournament. IMO we will get to 14 or 16 teams by 2026. The Power 2 will not continue with a format that allows lower-ranked teams that played lesser competition to be seeded in the top 4 and knock out B1G and SEC teams with better records. The best teams seeded as ranked should be in the playoff. I do not see how the football playoffs can be as inclusive as the basketball playoffs. I somewhat reluctantly hope that Oregon matches up with your Dawgs in this season's playoff. Most likely in Miami or in Dallas in the semifinals. 😁

Yo, Week 7. Game Day is predicted to be in town for the visit from the Buckeyes. However, there are attractive SEC games on Saturday, October 12th. Will ESPN spurn the Foxy B1G in favor of its partner SEC? ESPN, Fox, and Warner joining forces to form the streaming service Venu, may have changed the media calculus with the two top broadcasters of college football burying the hatchet. Predicting College GameDay locations for the 2024 college football season SATURDAYBLITZ.COM Predictions of where College GameDay will be live from each week of the 2024 college football season.

Look Back and please change the crummy format come 2026. College Football Playoff will 'evaluate' 12-team format in January - On3 WWW.ON3.COM The College Football Playoff will "evaluate" every aspect of the 12-team bracket in January after the national championship, executive director Rich Clark told On3. Seeding teams higher than ranked and giving them 1st round-byes. Giving the 5-seed a home game against a G5 that may not be ranked in the AP Poll top 25 opponent with the 6-seed playing a top 10 P4 opponent. No other post-season tournament is this messed up.

Can't catch ... The Galloping Ghost. 2024 marks 100th anniversary of an iconic Big Ten football moment SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Red Grange of Illinois delivered one of football's greatest single-game performances versus Michigan in 1924. Lot of traditions in the B1G.

B1G Media Days will soon be here. Hammerin’ the B1G: 7 Big Ten Media Days storylines I am most interested in SATURDAYTRADITION.COM Big Ten Media Days is right around the corner with some new faces this summer. These storylines will be front and center in Indianapolis. No. 3 - Does anyone know where Eugen is located? Kind of sounds like the name of an energy drink.

When you're finally happy! I need oxygen! 😁 Thanks, for the laughs.

DanL, I suggest you Duck. I believe that 'things' will become more expensive. ESPN and Fox did not join Warner to form the streaming platform Venu for grins.
