The Hangover Cure: Week 14

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 17:33:03 -0500

Key Takeaway. The end of one thing must be the beginning of another. Tim Tebow crying is a big deal not because he is the best or greatest college football player of this or any other era, but because he is certainly the most iconic of this decade. He quarterbacked a team to one national title, won a title as a terrific situational player for another, won a Heisman in a third season, and endured his most serious injury and most frustrating loss this year as the leader and f...

Superlatives: Suh and Spiller unconquered in championship defeats

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 12:28:24 -0500

Snap judgments on Saturday's best. Teachers' Pet: Ndumakong Suh, Irresistible Force, Nebraska. Suh's 4.5 sacks against Colt McCoy Saturday night only begin to tell the story of his dominance in a game his team nearly won despite failing to score a touchdown. Suh was everywhere, through double teams, against misdirection, tossing around blockers and runners alike at will, and ended just one second short of completely bashing the Longhorns' national title hopes in with a chunk o...

Fresno State's Devan Cunningham scores two for the big guys

Sun, 06 Dec 2009 02:15:03 -0500

It's well established in these parts that that rarely-seen art form of the fat guy touchdown is one of our favorite things, and the genre has a new patron saint Saturday in Fresno State's Devan Cunningham, a 6'6", 350-pound offensive tackle who improbably scored one for linemen everywhere on the Bulldogs' game-winning two-point attempt at Illinois: Those two points are the only ones of Cunningham's career, good enough to lift the Bulldogs to their eighth win despite c...

We're on official Zook Watch: Is Illinois stil standing by its man?

Scroll down or click here to join the Doc's game day live blog, covering every game all day long. Fresno State 53, Illinois 52. The Illini's season of pain goes down like this: Down 52-45 with six seconds to play and facing a 4th-and-10 from the Illini 19 on (probably) the last snap of the game, Fresno State quarterback Ryan Colburn hit Jamel Hamler for the touchdown on a deflected pass as the clock ticked down, and Devan Cunningham for the the win on a do-or-die two-point conversion...

Weirdest, Most Fantastic End of a Football Game Ever

Sat, 05 Dec 2009 17:45:01 -0500

By Paul M. Banks It will no doubt be on Sportscenter and all the other highlight shows tonight. It’s the most heart-warming story about a Left Tackle since the Sandra Bullock film, “The Blind Side.” Fresno St. back-up LT Devan Cunningham’s game winning 2 pt conversion reception must be seen in order to be believed. The ball initially bounced off an Illinois defender before falling into Cunningham’s arms to give the Bulldogs the final two points of a wild 53-52 w...

Fresno State-Wisconsin: Missed Opportunites Doom the Bulldogs in Double Overtime

Sat, 12 Sep 2009 21:56:12 -0500

This was a game that Fresno State wanted; this was a game the Bulldogs had looked forward to since it was put on the schedule. The Bulldogs wanted revenge since a heartbreaking 13-10 loss last season. Unfortunately for Fresno State, it was missed opportunities that led to a 34-31, double-overtime loss to Wisconsin. Three interceptions, including one on the first play in the second overtime, led to Wisconsin sneaking away with another three-point victory. Here's a few things to take away f...

Milftastic College Hoops Coach Now Milftastic GM

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 03:48:02 -0500

Stacy Johnson-Klein, the fine-looking former coach of the Fresno State women's basketball team who recently won a sexual harassment lawsuit against the school, has found employment once again. She's now the new GM of the Lawton Fort Sill Cavalry of the Continental Basketball Association. Stacy will earn a six-figure salary, which is pretty steep for a minor league franchise - especially one that reportedly lost $350,000 last season.
