Aside from the “tippity top” of the college football landscape, next season will look no different than this one. Yes, the new, four team playoff system will be upon us, the one to decide the National Champion, but other than those select few, it’s not like everyone is going to pack it in and head towards finals after their late-November or (even fewer) early-December showdowns. That’s right, fans. The bowl games will return! Just when you thought it was going to end, it turns out the annual jingles, clichéd press conference and talking heads ranting over the teams battling in … Continued
As I sat in my Madison hotel room Saturday Night, watching the final stages of #1 Alabama bully their conference foes from the Bayou, I couldn’t help but get caught up with the pageantry of the glorious stage. From the bolstering band to the chorus of “Roll Tide!” following yet another Alabama first down, it was easy to see an institution oozing tradition was adding to it firsthand. But what makes tradition? It is the success on the field, the award winners and conference championships that litter the nearby trophy cases. It’s the fight song and chants that echo the … Continued
I’ve had it. Look, I’m all for motions of euphoria for outlasting an opponent. I get it: big wins are phenomenal. You circle the date on the calendar as soon as you unpack your bags in August. All week you hear about the heroics of the opposing team, and when the moment of the showdown finally arrives, your squad prevails. Many of us have been there. It’s wonderful, it’s life changing. But students, pay heed: The pointless storming the field has got to stop. Now, I’m not talking about those beloved DII schools who knock off a FBS power in … Continued
You don’t have to take college level classes on the topic to understand the big key that drives sports media: There is always a standard. Every player that is dissected on national television is eventually discussed as a legacy, comparing his play to a relic of the past. Just like every team that has success is associated with another’s lasting triumph. Nobody can just be, there always has to be a standard to be examined against. Yet, how interesting that so few of these standards have withstood the test of time. It’s the 1972 Dolphins, Joe Montana or Joe DiMaggio. … Continued
At the onset, the beginning of year #2 is nothing but excitement. Following a freshmen campaign of uneasiness, unavoidable pitfall and the crushing hit of blindsided reality, the sophomore calendar, at its core, should feel easier. After all, surroundings are now familiar and schedule has become mundane. Sure the expectations are understandably raised, but hey, at least the growing pains are over. Aren’t they? While I’m sure there are millions of sophomores around the country that hold this thought process nearly a month into their sequel campaigns (or at the onset, hello quarter system!), there are four cities that undoubtedly … Continued
