An article on Matt Barkley and his decision to return for his senior year with USC.

Pretty grounded kid for sure.

Decent article other than the fact the author tries to paint a picture of him having a modest upbringing. He's from newport beach and his family is pretty loaded (attended a private high school that costs like 12K a year). He may not have the money in his pocket to buy his jersey but i'm sure he could just slap it on a credit card.

I can't wait for the Thursday night game when USC comes to SLC. I just hope Utah has a quarterback so it is a good game.

This is my view for the upcoming PAC 12 season.

Is there a bigger scumbag in college football than Bobby Petrino?

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- Arkansas has fired Bobby Petrino, saying the former Razorbacks coach "knowingly misled" the university and engaged in reckless behavior in a relationship with a female football employee half his age.

Petrino's Arkansas hiring presser "You were searching for a leader who would serve w/ class, dignity..." -


Petrino to the Montana Grizzlies, a match made in heaven.

Well good on Arkansas for choosing virtue over wins. Not that I'd care if it were my team tbh. Stab babies ... but get me some wins!

A lot of people are commending the Arkansas AD for his integrity, character, etc. They must have short memories, as he's the same AD that recruited Petrino to the Hogs while he was coaching Atlanta.

Blasphemy!

No way U of M goes after a guy like that with what as just transpired in Missoula. Of course, I know you know that.

And the SEC joke factory begins...

Word is that The Arkansas athletic department offered Petrino's mistress, Jessica Dorrell, a first class ticket out of Fayetteville. She refused because she only rides coach.

Things couldn't get much worse for Bobby Petrino as he has been linked to a second woman. LMFAO! Bobby Petrino is a PIMP!

So, it sounds like we'll be getting a 4 team playoff starting in 2014. Now we can argue about who belongs in the playoff instead of the BCS bowls!

As for the 14-year-old Bowl Championship Series, it's on life support. Any chance that it survives past the next two seasons? "I hope not," said Southeastern Conference Commissioner Mike Slive, who pitched a four-team playoff four years ago but was shot down at this same hotel beachside hotel.

"This is a seismic change for college football," BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock said after the 11 conference commissioners and Notre Dame's athletic director wrapped up three days of meetings in south Florida.

That Hancock actually used the word playoff when describing what was being considered alone signaled a shift in thinking for the BCS. In a memo leading up to these meetings, the term "four-team event" was used to describe creating two national semifinals and a championship game.

Big 12 and SEC champs to play in a Jan 1 bowl for at least the next 5 years.

Assuming the conference champs aren't in the 4 team playoff, of course.

Montana Grizzlies QB Jordan Johnson was expelled from school today. Between that, Nick Montana transferring, and the rape allegations, it's been a pretty busy offseason in Zootown.

What a mess.

Time to clean things up, that obviously started a few months ago.

Looks like maybe Shay Smithwick-Hann will end up being the starter? Kalispell kid.

Could be. I know the Billings West QB Brady Gustafson is going there. People have said he's the best to ever come out of West High, which is saying something, but I think he's a bit too scrawny to start this season.

Yes, I know Bama fans can gloat about another Championship added to their umpteen others (some even recognized by other schools!), but even the most ardent Tide fan has to find these ridiculous:

Spoiler!



Also, a prosthetic leg found in a Florida man's shrimp net:

there was a shooting near Auburn University early Sunday morning. Two confirmed dead and one was in the hospital clinging to life around 2A.M. reports of seven injured. Two dead were football players and the third was on the roster this year.
