Wyoming has fun with numbers
It is possible to skew numbers any number of ways to make yourself look better, as evidenced by someone behind the keyboard handling Wyoming’s Twitter account today.

2013 LOTT Impact Trophy watch list
The first college football award watch list was released this week, which is always another positive sign that our favorite season is coming. The LOTT Impact Trophy watch list includes 42 players from 37 different schools representing the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac 12, SEC and Mountain West Conference in addition to Notre Dame, BYU and Army. No finalists or semifinalists from last...
Episode 138 – It’s college football preview magazine time!
The next time you happen to be in the grocery store or anywhere else with a magazine rack to browse and skim, do yourself a favor and make sure to walk by the magazine rack. You should start seeing the annual preseason college football magazines start to fill the rack. If that does not get you excited, then what will?
I have always been a fan of these preseason magazines. There have...

Kiffin to coach at small school?
The USC coach has taken several high-profile coaching jobs in the last decade, but now he's hinting that a lower profile gig could be in his future.
The NFL has changed Chip Kelly, sort of
Some said Chip Kelly would never be able to fit in to the NFL. That ultimately is up for debate until we see him coach a game on a Sunday, but we do have a report now that suggests the NFL has changed Kelly…
This is the real breaking news out of #Eagles practice right now. RT @zberm: Chip is wearing a hat, not a visor.

Darn you NFL!
2012 Big East championship rings for Rutgers
The final year of Big East play in football ended with a four-way tie for the conference championship. Louisville came out on top withe tiebreakers awarding the Cardinals with the conference’s automatic BCS berth, sending Louisville to the Sugar Bowl to take on the SEC’s Florida Gators. To get there Louisville needed a second-half rally on the road against future Big Ten member...
Column: I think I love Wyoming’s new field design
Sometimes I think Wyoming gets a bad wrap. To field a major college football program in the state of Wyoming takes a certain level of bravery, or perhaps stupidity, yet Wyoming has been doing it for a long time, first as a founding member of the WAC and later one of the original Mountain West Conference members. Sure, Wyoming may not be the most competitive program out there. Bill...
Arizona shows off new football uniforms for 2013
The Arizona Wildcats will have quite the wardrobe this 2013 season. If you have been paying attention to Arizona over the past year, you will recognize all of the new looks, for better or worse. The all-red look returns in 2013 with a red jersey-pants-helmet combo and the copper-colored helmet also makes a return for the upcoming season.
If you remember, I loved the addition of the...
Rumor: Ohio State to be part of special Nike presentation in Seattle
A couple of years ago I happened to be fortunate enough to attend a special Nike event held in New York City to display the Pro Combat uniforms to be worn that season by a handful of Nike sponsored football programs. It was a blast and it was a great opportunity to catch a first look at some great uniforms. Nike later showed off special bowl uniforms after the regular season in Dallas...
An ACC-Big Ten Challenge in the Pinstripe Bowl? Sign me up!

The College Football Playoff is just around the corner and conferences from coast to coast are working to find strategies to bolster schedule strength and conference profile. Other than moving to nine-game conference schedules, conferences are looking to lock in future bowl partners...
2013 Navy football trailer leaves you wanting more
Few programs put together as solid of a trailer video for the upcoming season the way Navy does. Whether it is a sense of national pride just while watching these videos, or the realization that these players will ultimately be taking on a much more important role than football player in the near future, I just love when Navy releases a new football video.
This morning we were treated...

Stanford quarterback Josh Nunes will not play the 2013 college football season after deciding to step in to early retirement from football. Citing medical issues as a concern, Stanford announced the news Monday via Twitter.
We regret to report that senior QB Josh Nunes is medically retiring, ending his Cardinal career. Please join us w/ thx to Josh! #gostanford...
ACC thinking about a football Euro Trip
It is called the Atlantic Coast Conference for a reason. The ACC may be putting together a plan to cover both sides of the Atlantic Ocean if recent comments by the commissioner are any indication.
ACC commissioner John Swofford says playing football and basketball games in Europe is a realistic possibility in the future for the conference. Having recently established an extra level...

A closer look at Florida Atlantic’s new helmet options
Photo via Sun Sentinel
Last week on Crystal Ball Run I shared with readers the news that Florida Atlantic was asking fans to vote on five different helmet options for the 2013 season. The idea, to me, seemed like a great idea to get fans involved at the annual spring game at a time when a program like Florida Atlantic may struggle to stay in the mindset of college football fans....
Boston manhunt sends bullet through college football calendar
I woke up this morning to the news that one suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing was involved in a shootout overnight, with wounds later killing him in a local hospital. Suspect 2 is still on the run and hopefully he is captured soon enough.
I cannot imagine the fear running through the citizens of Watertown, Massachusetts as this all plays out and hopefully most are staying...
UConn’s new helmets aren’t scaring anybody
Poor UConn. First you get left out of the realignment circus, never to receive an invite from the coveted ACC. Meanwhile you see conference rivals Rutgers, Pittsburgh, Syracuse and Louisville all get invites to bigger and better conferences, leaving you with Temple, after you were also abandoned by the rest of your main basketball rivals from Villanova, St. John’s and Georgetown...

You really should watch this one in full screen mode…
Column: Jim Mora opens door for gay football players at UCLA, hopefully leads to more coaches following
UCLA head coach Jim Mora is welcoming any gay student athlete to his program if they can play.
UCLA head coach Jim Mora should be commended for a job well done so far at UCLA. Many were critical of the hiring of Mora during the 2011-12 coaching carousel but I had an optimistic approach to the move and believe it would be a good fit for the head coach and football program, both looking...
Notre Dame selling “Undefeated” DVD set
Notre Dame had one of the more magical seasons in 2012, this cannot be disputed. From opening the season against historic rival Navy in Ireland to defensive stands and overtime victories against programs like Pac 12 champion Stanford, Oklahoma, USC, BYU, Michigan and more along the way the Fighting Irish restored a certain level of pride among the Fighting Irish faithful. That journey...
Don Draper missed out on a great Cotton Bowl
Don Draper missed one heck of a moment in college football history.
I’m a big fan of the show Mad Men, which aired the latest season premiere Sunday night. In the episode we see our favorite ad man Don Draper share an elevator ride with someone who works in his office that he barely recognizes. It turns out this employee of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce, Bob Benson in accounts,...
Arizona State adding some new helmets in 2013?
Photo evidence might suggest that Arizona State is going to be adding at least one new helmet to the uniform mix this season. The new additions appear to include a white helmet and a maroon one with the previously updated pitchfork design on the side.

Good afternoon! I am testing out a new live blog format on the site while flipping between the Virginia and Georgia spring game son ESPN3.
Podcast – Tim Tolley from FanSided150.com
Click to visit FanSied 150.
I had planned on posting a nice interview I recorded with Tim Tolley, from FanSided150.com. Unfortunately, after needing to reschedule a couple of times with Tim and finally getting a chance to record the podcast with him yesterday there was some sort of technical error that wiped out the final 20 minutes of what was about a 25 minute conversation.
I had...
