Now that is a spectacular stat. Well done, Tulane!

Apparently, Tulane is the "Moneyball" of college football.

I'm half expecting Elon to reach out to Charles for advice... maybe even a CEO offer . All I know is that the world would be a much better place if OBD rules ruled worldwide. "OBD Worldwide. Ducks & Drift-boats" And I'm saying that as a guy who has gently had his hand smacked by Charles a few times... and rightfully so.

Sorry Joshua for trying to give Charles credit for your fine work... Great article. Thank you for the depth.

I saw something like this happen at a high school game about 10 years ago. It was horrific for all involved - players, coaches, fans. The rest of the game was canceled and both teams and fans gathered in prayer mid-field. It's such a tough reminder that we are all so very human, and that what truly matters has less than zero to do with the outcome on the scoreboard. Hope and prayers for Damar Hamlin, his family, teammates, and coaches.

Great article, Charles. All of it is so spot on. And, as you said, Oregon is not far off from being there.

Giving the business to Riley & USC just never gets old for me. But I'm sure, like the proverbial "check in the mail," Riley's offer is as well.

Sorry to say, but I believe your prescribed punishment just crossed over into the realm of "Cruel & Unusual Punishment." I mean, Charles is bad, but that's just taking it a bridge too far.

LOL... and I'm stealing this!

"Can you imagine both the la schools playing against Mich., OSU..." Why yes I can. And like you, I'm sure the thought puts a big smile on both of our faces.

USC had a 2-1 time of possession advantage... 40 minutes to 20 minutes. USC had 29 first downs compared to Tulane's 16. USC's Heisman winner was 37/52 with 462 yards & 5 TDs. Tulane's QB was 8/17 for 234 yards. And USC still lost. Admittedly, however, I may be deriving a tad bit too much pleasure from this fabulous game. Nahhhh

I'm sorta, kinda, pretty sure, that any further comments from USC homers about USC should have been in the CFP, is now beyond 6ft underground and is officially dead. Tulane ripped their hearts out. How sweet it is.

Thank you for this very, very, nice New Year's gift. And it's so fun to know that Utah beat them twice this season as well.

From Yale School of Medicine: "If you’ve ever had a rib or rib cartilage fracture, you know that this type of injury causes severe pain. A hallmark of a rib fracture is that a deep breath makes the pain worse. Pain from a fractured rib can even impede your breathing, leading to a chest infection. The usual time taken for complete recovery from a rib and/or cartilage fracture is approximately three to four months… but full recovery can take as long as six months. Refraining from strenuous activities and taking adequate rest can speed up the healing time." Anyone who has had a fractured rib(s) or cartilage knows how horribly painful this injury. When I cracked three ribs, just the thought of someone touching my chest makes me wince. It hurt like hell just to breath. How Justin got back out there the following week, and every week thereafter, is beyond me.

The contorted and inverted attempt at logic here just tells me that USC fans are doing serious drugs down there in So Cal.

Thanks so much for sharing this. When I saw the length of the video, nearly 27 minutes, I figured I'd watch about 5 or so minutes of it. Nearly 27 minutes later, I wanted about 27 minutes more. Just a tremendous video about a QB who, IF they can keep him moderately healthy, will likely go down in NFL as one of the Top-5 QBs of all time.

"192-168. The first meeting between the teams took place in 1903." Are you saying that they've played each other in basketball 360 times in 120 years? I'm asking because if they played each other an average of 2 times per season for 120 years, that would be 240 games.

Georgia 44 - OSU 28

Not the prettiest game I've ever seen, but certainly exciting and anything but boring. And somewhere during this game, it appears a track meet broke put.

Michigan has had the ball 1st and goal from inside the five yard line on 3 different occasions. And they've come away with only 6 points. TCU defense has been exceptional.

It's really quite shocking. I just don't understand why the three of them just couldn't get along.

Their defense has been shockingly impressive. Just locking it down.

No NCAA game, let alone a bowl game, should ever be played again at that baseball stadium. No wonder the Chargers left Sand Diego.

To me, TCU just looks like they really are 'that good'

Even without the Pick-6, TCU is just looking so impressive early... both their defense & offense. They nearly dug themselves a terrible early hole, but their defense rocked Michigan at the goal line. TCU up 14-0 early
