Which Conference Proved The Most in Bowl Season?
Extending with our deep and important discussion from regular season into bowl season, which conference had the toughest slate of opponents? Which conference had it easy goings?
Well let’s look at the bowl performance. We can get a good examination by taking a look at this chart, with each row featuring a game, starting with the [...]
Which Conference Proved They Were the Strongest?
Who’s the best conference?
This seems to be part of a minimal but growing debate–and by debate I mean chest-thumping–about the Pac-10 (usually USC fans angry at how indifferent southern college football fans are to recent Trojan dominance) and the SEC (indifferent to West Coast bluster, every year). The heat has been rising summer after summer, [...]

Pac-10 2008 Helmet Schedule
Just a little something I cooked up–I was inspired by the SEC version and decided the nations’s other great conference deserved a little visual representation. Click on the image below for the gigantic version, because the helmets are pretty.

I like MGoBlog’s design–absolutely functional and works perfectly within the contours, but they asked for the prettiest, and pretty is such a superficial term. So I’m [...]
My College Football Blog Award Ballot, Part I
Generally, in many elections and choices for big awards, I like to keep my vote private. In this case? No way. I’m not up for anything and have nothing at stake, so the process be damned. And you always need more college football sources to read in your life.

Pac-10 Recruiting Maps, Part II
Read Part I (Northwest/Northern California) here.
Going again through the super awesome MapGameday, we see how important it is for the Pac-10 to defend their home turf from intruders. Cal did a so-so job, Washington a superb job. How would the southern schools fare?
Arizona
Bob Stoops gets another year, and Arizona gets another subpar recruiting class in-state. [...]
Pac-10 Recruiting Maps, Part I
While I’m not so hot on breaking down recruiting by stars, recruiting by location always intrigues me. It gives you an idea of a program’s reach, how well the team is recruiting in the local area, how many incursions a team is making on certain programs. And more importantly, you can dirty up Google Maps. [...]
Retrospection Evaluation–Washington
Jake Locker should have invested heavily in health insurance if he knew Ty Willingham would turn him into a moving punching bag. The Huskies had the hardest schedule in Division I football and predictably were torn apart by season’s end. However, that did not stop the Huskies from losing games they should have won.
Wins: Other [...]
Retrospection Evaluation–Wazzu
I’m trying to think of why I have the Cougars ranked ahead of the Wildcats in terms of status and final standings. At least Arizona put up a fight in their losses–Bill Doba just got asskicked at every juncture. This is probably why he’s gone and Mike Stoops is still here.
And it doesn’t get that [...]
