That's actually pretty big news, but Georgia may have dodged a big one with Pollack only being a strain instead of a tear. If you remember a couple of weeks ago, a torn patella tendon is what caused David Boston to have surgery and miss the entire 2004 season. Even with losing Lumpkin at...

There's some shocking news coming out of Miami tonight: All-Pro running back and former Heisman Trophy winner Ricky Williams has officially retired from the NFL. The news was first broke by the Miami Herald, and has now been picked up by ESPN News. All their broadcast said was that he wants to...

From what was said of Knight during the recruiting season, he'll either play wide receiver or outside linebacker. Given our depth situations at linebacker and wide receiver, it's very possible that he may get a look at wide receiver to begin with. Nevertheless, while the possibility of Knight...

So let me get this straight, Shula deserves four or five years just to prove that he's a good coach? Are you kidding me? Hell, by those standards, Mike Dubose and Ears Whitworth would have been around to coach another year or two. However, if that's the case, then I think it's time we re-analyze...

A QB with little or no experience cannot go undefeated in this league, eh? It's a good thing you guys weren't giving advice to Jay Barker or Tee Martin.

Sure, most of the people will still "support" Shula, but it will be tepid at best. Regardless of all the starry-eyed optimism about weathering another losing season, if we have another blunder filled 4-7 season, then you can bet that there will be some serious doubts about Shula's coaching...

We did have some talent in 2000, but the fact is that we didn't have anywhere near the talent that many people thought we did. The so-called "Pancake Posse" was nothing more than overweight and overrated linemen. The defensive line was heavily dependant on incoming freshman, all of which either...

I don't see how anyone can say that LSU is going to flop with all of their talent. They have a great coach and a ton of talent; teams with that don't flop. Furthermore, trying to say that LSU won't win the title just because it didn't happen in the past with three other teams is absurd. '04...

Personally, I figure LSU has just as good of a shot to win the national championship as anyone else, including Oklahoma, USC, and Miami. They return a lot of starters, and while they did lose some notable players, they certainly have enough young talent to make up for it. But what about their...

Is there any reason why we should believe he's in trouble academically?

To be honest, I don't really buy into the NFL hype for Bryant unless he really makes some major progress in his final year. He certainly has talent, but has never been in good shape, and has never put up any real stats. According to RollTide.com, Bryant is credited with 0 sacks a 3.5 tackles...

I don't really know. I think we have one more game scheduled at Legion Field, but even it is not a guaranteed thing. With any luck, we've played our last at Legion Field.

Yes, Notre Dame does have a contract with NBC, but it only applies to Notre Dame home games. Their game with Tennessee will be played in Knoxville, and thus will be carried by the network Tennessee (well, the SEC), has a contract with, which is CBS or ESPN. However, considering the quality of...

Unfortunately, I doubt we'll be on CBS much this year. Just from an initial look, there seems to be roughly three games in which we have a legitimate shot at being on CBS. They are the games against Arkansas, Tennessee, and Auburn. For the most part, aside from those games, all games will be on...

Hmm, the unusual CBS double-header. Regardless of what CBS and the other networks do, I doubt that it will matter against Western Carolina. I suppose the only way we'll get on TV that week is if every other game scheduled for then is cancelled. It'll be a pay-per-view game, but hopefully it...
