The Virginia Tech Hokies and new head coach James Franklin want to get off to a fast start in 2026. Franklin has a lot to prove after he was shockingly fired by Penn State, only nine months after almost leading them to an appearance in the national championship game. In an effort to make every […]

The former CFP National Champion and All-Big Ten offensive guard […]

Kentucky football saw its offseason roster movement continue on Tuesday, as two wide receivers, David Washington Jr. and Preston Bowman, indicated their intentions to enter the transfer portal. Washington Jr., a true freshman in 2024, appeared in all 12 games for the Wildcats, primarily on special teams. He recorded his first collegiate catch against Murray […]
Frank Wilson’s next game with the Tigers will also be his last. Late Tuesday night Matt Zenitz and Chris Hummer reported that Wilson will be leaving LSU after the Texas Bowl for Ole Miss, where he will become the Rebels’ running backs coach. Wilson has coached in Oxford before, working there from 2005 through 2007; […]
UNC improved to 10-1 on the season with a 77-58 win over East Tennessee State in the Dean Dome on Tuesday night. The Tar Heels and Buccaneers played a fairly evenly matched first half that saw Carolina go to the locker room with just an eight-point lead before turning on the jets and putting plenty […]
When you have two legitimate Top 20 teams testing each other, it’s never inevitable. But this U of L task in Knoxville against tall favorite Tennessee sure seemed close to that heading in. Well coached top level foe at its sold out home. One whose strength — inside scoring and rebounding — made it a […]
14 years ago this December, BSD writer Dan Vecellio wrote about a JUCO quarterback prospect Jake Waters picking Kansas State over Penn State. The Daily Collegian had a quote from Waters where he said, “I think God just showed me a sign that K-State was the place for me.” Well, God must have rethought about […]
With Kansas State in the middle of a bizarro Christmas where they got to unwrap their big gift on December 1, can’t play with it until after the New Year, there has been surprisingly little to talk about when it comes to the football program. Coach Klein has made a few obvious additions to his […]
Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano announced that offensive line coach Pat Flaherty will not return next season. His contract is set to expire at the end of this year, and it will not be renewed, Schiano announced.

Their defense rates higher than […]
The 2026 NFL draft seems to be shaping up similarly to the 2025 version, with only one or two top quarterbacks available for top picks. That doesn’t mean a player won’t present themselves in the draft process, pushing themselves into first-round consideration, but Fernando Mendoza and Dante Moore are the two big names. Moore has […]
The non-conference slate is coming to an end as the Kentucky Wildcats look to find a rhythm before heading into SEC play in a little over two weeks. With games against North Carolina, Michigan State, Gonzaga, and Indiana now in the rearview mirror, the final major conference opponent has arrived. That will be none other […]
This would be a monster victory. Let’s get it. Go Cards.
The first place Chicago Bears control their own destiny (is a sentence I love to type), and this week they can clinch a playoff spot (another sweet collection of words), albeit they’d need a little help. But still, it’s mid-December, and the Bears are playing meaningful football! On our latest Mac & Read Show, Evan McLean and […]
Join us Tuesday Night at 8pm CST as bowl chatter continues and, oh by the way, the Huskers had a 3rd player enter the portal. That might be news? Have we perhaps known for a bit and have another QB in our crosshairs? How is TJ? Can Phil Snow repair a defense which dropped off […]
The Kentucky Wildcats have made another addition to their coaching staff, and this one comes from within the SEC. Former Arkansas assistant Kolby Smith will become the Wildcats’ next running backs coach, according to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports. This may be a name familiar to Kentucky fans, as Smith was a standout running back […]
Philip Rivers needs to retire with 137 career wins, not 134! IU Memorial Stadium history being made!
In a move that’s been expected for a few days now, On3 is reporting that Iowa State wide receivers coach Noah Pauley is coming to Penn State where he will coach in the same role. Not to repeat myself, but here’s what I said about Pauley a week ago: Ever since Josh Gattis left after […]

The Syracuse Orange announced its ACC conference opponents for the 2026 football season. The conference joins the other Power Four conferences to play nine conference opponents, but with a twist. Because there are 17 teams in the conference, it is impossible for all ACC schools to play nine conference games in a season. Syracuse is […]
Alabama draws ever closer to the matchup with Oklahoma in Coach Kalen DeBoer’s first playoff appearance with the Crimson Tide. Ahead of that, us here at RBR wanted to give you our collection of opinions on Alabama’s season and the playoffs as a whole. 1) How much hope are you holding out that Alabama can/will […]
On Tuesday afternoon, the ACC announced its 2026 conference slate for the football season, and it’s a mess. Due to prior scheduling agreements and the unfortunate math of a 17-team conference, twelve teams will play a 9-game ACC schedule and five teams will play an 8-game ACC schedule. Then starting in 2027, sixteen teams will […]
The two December Big Ten games are out of the way, and now MSU has a trio of non-major teams to get through to wrap up 2025. The stretch begins today against the Toledo Rockets. Our Spartans are favored by 24.5. I’m personally calling for a 30-point win. Got to clean up the mistakes from […]
