http://www.yardbarker.com/rss/school/329 Recent Yardbarker Articles: Brigham Young Cougars en-us Making the morning rounds. • It's been real, old man. All eyes today are on Tallahassee, where Bobby Bowden is expected to hang it up after 34 years at Florida State, per reports by the Tallahassee Democrat, the Orlando Sentinel, ESPN and everyone else with an ear in FSU's athletic department -- everyone, that is, except Bowden himself, who continued to insist Monday night that he hasn't made up his mind and won't until a meeting with FSU brass this morning. You wouldn&#...

Bring on the coronations ...With Saturday's shellacking of New Mexico (you can tell the actual game is a mere formality when the opponent isn't even mentioned until the third paragraph of the AP roundup), TCU cinched up its perfect regular season nice and tight, and with it an equally fierce grip on that No. 4 BCS ranking that puts the Frogs lying in wait for a shot at Pasadena if Texas somehow goes down Saturday in the Big 12 Championship game.

I thought that was the whole point. The senior quarterback threw two touchdown passes in his final home game, including the game-winner in overtime, and when asked at a post-game press conference if that redeemed his six-turnover debacle from 2008, Hall did not mince words.... A little bit, yeah. I don't like Utah. In fact, I hate them. I...

No, if you were in search of some genuine expression of clean, old-fashioned locker room hate among rivals Saturday, you had to get out of the glare of L.A. and turn to a good, clean-cut Mormon boy, BYU quarterback Max Hall, who punctuated the Cougars' 26-23 overtime win over Utah with some very unholy animosity toward his opponents ...
