This 8-minute NFL Draft first round pick time clock sucks. This is Christmas morning. Let us relax and enjoy it.

I haven't watched SportsCenter in a long, long time. I didn't see anything that happened in sports today, got back late, turned on ESPN, and ... ten minutes and counting of WWE in the first 14 minutes of the show?! Nothing at all against this stuff if it's your thing, but ...

2026 NFL Draft Center Rankings: CFN’s College Football Perspective collegefootballnews.com/nfl/2026-nfl...

Yes, the Play-In Tournament is TOTALLY a part of NBA Playoffs ... 67% of all NBA teams make the post-season Fewer than 9% of teams make the College Football Playoff, and fewer than 19% of teams make the men's NCAA Tournament

It's 2026. The NCAA punishing a team for the tickiest-tackiest of recruiting violations now is like Blockbuster trying to collect a late fee for that DVD of Good Will Hunting sitting in the back of your closet Ooooooh, Iowa has to vacate wins ...

Seriously, to everyone not familiar with this UConn team and screaming about the foul disparity (with Michigan going back to the line as we speak) ... UConn is 310th in the nation in free throw attempts, and 243rd in fouls committed, for a reason

Here’s the weirdest thing about all the politicians looking to “fix” college sports Who loses if the proposals go through? SEC, Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 schools The ones with the massive alumni bases, media markets, and rich donors who give $ to other things - like politicians

OLD April Fools’ Day articles I did that could come true in a 2026 world … Herschel Walker Returns With One Year of Remaining Eligibility Tim Tebow Leading Republican Presidential Candidate Penn State Fires Assistants For AI Joe Paterno Big Ten To Become The BIG Conference

Glad these games are so late - tonight's Big Ten basketball porn is getting filthier

Is Arkansas playing with four guys on defense?

I know this has become totally lost, but colleges and universities don't need sports to function as an institution of higher learning. "How is (insert school) supposed to compete?" Well ... don't, if you don't want to invest in the entertainment. Go teach students stuff.

Nine schools won both an NCAA men's basketball title and a college football national championship (only AP, Coaches/UPI, and NCF pre-1936 count ... no on 1964 Arkansas football) 4 are obvious, 3 are gettable, and no chance on the last 2 (power conference programs, but I had no shot)

I need an "I'd rather be in a Vegas sportsbook right now for the last three minutes of Nebraska-Vanderbilt" bumper sticker

The only reason Cinderella got the prince was because of a fantastic NIL deal from a well-to-do benefactor that put all the pieces in place. A 12-seed playing well in the second round of the NCAA Tournament is not that.

Ahh yes. That inevitable moment that happens every season in football, and occasionally in college basketball, when Hell, reality, and a power program all come to breakfast And, sure as the next AP poll, next year there will be another James Madison, Tulane, and Miami University

There’s sports brutal, and there’s seeing your team get knocked out of the NCAA Tournament early Thursday to a school that sounds like a dispensary next to the Applebees.

Not being hyperbolic in any way, Siena knocking Duke out in the first round would be the single greatest moment in the history of our planet

I know how awesome this Dick Vitale and Charles Barkley show is - and with zero rooting interest, I'm loving it. But if I'm a die-hard Texas or NC State fan, and I'm living and dying with every possession, I'm sort of annoyed in a 45-42 game with nine minutes left

Done with the Miami University beef - time to have fun - but fascinating how much media influence KenPom (big fan, BTW) and NET have, and yet ... Miami Univ: KenPom 93, NET 64 Missouri 52/58 UCF 54/51 Auburn 38/38 Oklahoma 40/48 Indiana 46/41 SDSU 48/47 Cincinnati 44/49

WAIT, hold up Not only did Missouri barely get in, but as a 10 seed, it gets to play in (checks schedule ...) SAINT LOUIS against 7 seed Miami!? The Hurricanes and the ACC have a right to break something tasteful over this

MIAMI UNIVERSITY LOST TO UMASS when it mattered No one - absolutely no one - seems to have cared

The NCAA Tournament committee has a chance to get instant inclusion in the Cheeky Hall of Fame by making Auburn vs Miami University a first four game

Miami University getting immediately knocked out of the MAC Tournament by a horrible UMass team appears to be the most instantly forgiven and memory dumped bad losses in human history Meanwhile, other bubble teams are getting dinged for too many Quad 1 losses

For the love of all that is right in a world gone totally mad, don’t be that person who uses AI to fill out your bracket And if you do, don’t you dare brag that you got the High Point pick right

Let me be the first to say it before we get going. Unless you’re a media type with some knowledge and insight … Absolutely no one cares about your bracket

Sorry - I still can’t get past this Every college hoops type can point to one random game in some November tournament at a resort, and when it mattered, no one remembered the Florida State football win over Alabama or ANYTHING about Notre Dame’s losses to Miami and Texas A&M

Still among the bigger things that didn’t get discussed on the College Football Playoff side - Indiana was the 1, and it technically got hosed seed-wise after Miami beat Texas A&M Not reseeding - and this goes triple for the NCAA Tournament - is about as unfair as it gets

No matter how this shakes out today with the bubble teams and the brackets, one thing has become absolutely crystal clear. College basketball is WAY better and more meticulous at picking 68 teams than college football is at picking 12.

It’s not the most overrated thing in sports, but it’s up there - worrying about and speculating seeds in a tournament that doesn’t reseed.

I'm so ready to stop dealing with debates, whining, and crying (especially from myself) about bubble teams that don't really deserve to watch the NCAA Tournament, much less be in it.

With both the Sun Belt and Conference USA including Louisiana Tech on their respective football schedules, the Bulldogs should take advantage of it. Play the Sun Belt slate, put together a developmental team of walk-ons for the CUSA schedule, take the $ from both leagues.

Santa Clara ... Lost to the Saint Louis team that just lost to Dayton, its only claim is a 2-1 record vs Saint Mary's, and it lost to New Mexico by 27 ZERO excuse for the Mountain West to not get at least two teams in

Seriously, why does the Big 12 go out of its way to be weird? Arizona - Iowa State is literally unwatchable with this floor pattern.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, it lost to Michigan, Arizona, Houston, and Purdue early, but Auburn closed 3-9 with losses to Mississippi State and Ole Miss along the way ... The Mountain West has to beg to get a second team in, and we're discussing a 12th SEC team with 16 losses

Amazing how the third game in a 30+ game college basketball season gets microanalyzed to death right now Meanwhile, when it mattered on the football side, after a 12ish game season, absolutely no one had the slightest memory of Alabama getting blowtorched by Florida State

Here's where the NCAA Selection thing goes off the rails You can totally suck at college basketball right now, but win a few games at some resort in early November and YAY! METRICS! But need the first two months to build, lose a few along the way, and NO NO NO BAD BAD BAD

I’ve had enough Absolutely no one - NO ONE - is saying a 29-0 Miami University, or any unbeaten team, should be left out of the NCAA Tournament But a one loss team with ZERO MERELY MEH WINS WHATSOEVER doesn’t automatically deserve any sprinkles RECORD-RANKING … MUST … STOP

UNLV's overtime win over Nevada Watching sporting events is awesome

Watching all these meh-to-bubble teams gack today, can we PLEASE stop with the idea that the NCAA Tournament needs to be expanded? The world would be just fine if UCLA, San Diego State, Seton Hall, Louisville, Vanderbilt, Iowa, and NC State weren't in.

Over the last 20 years, 24 safeties have run a 4.41 or better, and seven of them were in this year's draft class.

Drake Powell led the way with a 37" standing vertical leap at the NBA Combine. That would've tied him for 16th among the linebackers and edge rushers at the NFL Combine. 6-3, 293-pound DT Gracen Halton (Oklahoma) would've finished second in the vertical at the NBA Combine.

Seriously - total production malpractice. How do you not keep the camera on Megan Keller?!

Let's say college football did go to a 24-team playoff. Percentage of teams that make the playoffs ... NBA 67% NHL 50% NFL 44% MLB 40% NCAA Tournament: 19% College Football (at 24): 18% If CFP is out of all the Power 4 plus Notre Dame plus 2 throw-them-a-cookie Gof6 teams: 34%

Everyone’s knee-jerk reaction is to hate the Big Ten’s 24-team playoff idea, BUT … Championship games are tired and unnecessary. Ditching them makes the regular season MORE meaningful Replace them with a CFP first round, and then it becomes a 12-team playoff - that’s not awful

I'm just a simple guy with simple thoughts ... If someone is a full-time undergraduate student in good academic standing with a full credit load, like any other regular student, then fine ... eligible to play college sports. Anything else ... no.

Bad Bunny halftime show … dude nailed the spike at the end Seriously, as anyone who has ever spiked a football knows, if you’re off by the slightest bit, that thing can go anywhere That had the potential to go very, VERY wrong in an all-time Football In the Groin sort of way

To everyone complaining about how bad and boring this Super Bowl was, I’d like to introduce you to most of the first 30ish of these things. The Super Bowl didn’t start getting consistently good until 2000.

Ha ha, very funny ... With ABC getting the game next year, ESPN will start Super Bowl LXI pregame show tonight ... The SVP SportsCenter is broadcasting outside in front of SoFi Stadium, and it's followed by a Super Bowl Live show ... for next year Always, be promoting ... ALWAYS, Be Promoting
