I've got a new theory about the allergic reaction to Bill Belichick's decision-making that exploded all over sports media yesterday. It's the lead of today's SN column and I have another post coming at 11:30 to dig into it. But that was only the biggest story on an otherwise interesting day: *John Wall: How can you not love a buzzer-beater in his debut? But, wow, would it have been amazing to see what...

The college football regular season is nearing its close and it has been short on spectacular individual performances. Last year’s winner, Sam Bradford , suffered a season-ending shoulder injury and Tim Tebow , the 2007 Heisman winner, hasn’t ap...

The criteria – athough stats are important, they are not the only item required to make the list. Basically, if I had a complete team filled with talent but in need of a quarterback, these are the 10 in order I would select. 10. Seneca Wallace, Iowa State: No, this isn't like the All-Star game where I try to include a player from each school. I thought Wallace was incredibly underrated at Iowa...

At the beginning of this season, pundits were worried about the potential of a soporific Heisman race featuring the three best quarterbacks in the country, and no one else. But one Sam Bradford injury and a handful of pedestrian showings in big games from Colt McCoy and Tim Tebow have reopened the race and this year's field features names from beyond the glamour of the highest heights, like C.J. Spiller...

Bee Sports Editor/Opinion 49ers' future QB is playing on Saturdays The view from section LR19, Row 3 at Candlestick Park on Sunday did nothing to dissuade me from my prior thoughts on the 49ers' quarterback situation. The answer is in next April's NFL draft. That is obvious after watching Alex Smith from the end zone behind him. He zeroed in early on receivers. He didn't check off enough to his secondary...

Kansas went into this season with questions with the offensive line and with the linebackers...and those questions have become major issues as the Jayhawks entered Big XII play. The Jayhawks have lost four straight games after narrowly squeaking by Iowa State in the conference opener. Offensive line play has been horrible , leading to not only a lack of production in the running game but also forcing...

So, Scott's collar bone is broken, and he's lost for the rest of the regular season. That's a tough blow for him, the team, and us fans. But, I come to praise Charles Scott , not to bury him. In 2007 I remembered him mostly for the last play of our 3OT loss at Kentucky. He got tackled short of first down yardage on 4th & short. Crap! That was the year of another national championship and Jacob...

NEW YORK — Over the past decade, Oklahoma has rarely been out of the AP Top 25 and Stanford has rarely been in. On Sunday, the Sooners and Cardinal sort of swapped places. Oklahoma dropped out of the college football poll for the first time since 2005, and No. 25 Stanford moved into the rankings for the first time since 2001. The first six spots were held by major college football's six unbeaten...

With true-to-life fidelity, my most recent season simulation in NCAA Football 10 found Boise State losing a trap game late in the season and, as the token BCS Buster from a minor conference, paying for it dearly in the polls. Having gone undefeated through 10 games, the Broncos (not a user-controlled team in this dynasty) reached the BCS Top 4, striking distance of Florida, Oklahoma (with an uninjured...
