The tenor of a Big Ten rivalry between West Coast powerhouses changed in the blink of an eye. After USC linebacker Desman Stephens II delivered a blow to Oregon quarterback Dante Moore early in the second quarter of Saturday's matchup, the differing reactions from each team impacted the outcome of the Ducks' 41-27 victory — and the conversation that followed. As Moore lay motionless on the turf for over 10 […]

Deion Sanders outlined the criteria he has in mind for his quarterback at Colorado: Someone with confidence, a firm grasp of the offense and who teammates respond to inside the huddle. Sounds almost like a description of his son, Shedeur. The Colorado coach faces another QB quandary, the second in as many seasons since Shedeur Sanders left for the NFL. With his son's heir apparent, highly touted prospect Julian Lewis, […]

South Carolina star pass rusher Dylan Stewart may not return to the field again this season for the Gamecocks. Since officials missed the incident live, Stewart avoided ejection during Saturday's loss to Alabama. However, the SEC and South Carolina have since issued a joint one-game suspension after a review confirmed Stewart threw multiple punches at Crimson Tide tight end Josh Ford. Following the incident, head coach Shane Beamer suspended Stewart […]

Welcome to "In The Pocket" — my opportunity to take you on a tour around college football and highlight the quarterbacks driving the conversation across the sport. This week, I’m taking a look at some of the QBs who are back for another season of college football, but wearing different uniforms: same faces, new places. These are signal-callers who have already proven they can play at this level, and now […]

I played offensive line for eight seasons in the NFL, and before that I spent my Saturdays in Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon, blocking for guys who ended up on lists like this one. So when I watch college football now, I watch for the stuff that signaled to me in the huddle whether a guy was for real. I'm picking the 10 players who impressed me most during the […]

Injured running back Turbo Richard could return to the field for No. 6 Indiana this weekend when the Hoosiers visit Rutgers. If he does, the defending national champions will have their top two running backs available for their first road trip this season. Coach Curt Cignetti made the announcement Monday during his weekly news conference. "We got really good news on Turbo, and he'll be day to day, and I'm […]

Following USC’s loss to Oregon at the LA Memorial Coliseum on Saturday, I’m stuck with the thought that USC is not a bad football team but a Lincoln Riley football team. And Lincoln Riley football hasn't played for a national title, let alone won one, or won a single college football playoff game. Riley’s teams have been middling, mid. And, even more disgusting for fans of Riley’s Oklahoma and USC […]

Notre Dame has lost receiver Quincy Porter for the rest of the season, coach Marcus Freeman said on Monday. The New Jersey native has not played this season after transferring from Ohio State. Porter missed several games with the Buckeyes in 2025 because of a left knee injury and had surgery on his patellar tendon in January. Porter was still working his way back from that injury and Freeman said […]

NFL Week 1 went to the public betting masses. Week 2 saw the pendulum swing hard the other way toward the bookmakers. So perhaps it was fitting that NFL Week 3 odds ended up somewhere in the middle, with one notable exception: player props — specifically, Anytime Touchdown Scorers. "It was a dream Sunday for player prop bettors, as nearly every popular touchdown selection delivered," said Joey Feazel, head of […]
