"Because they're desperate. They're desperate to be relevant on the national level." -@BruceFeldmanCFB tells @finebaum why he thinks Texas Tech has gone all in on Brendan Sorsby despite the PR disaster.

The European mind can’t comprehend this is the environment you have to deal with in the SEC when you play a road game against a 1-7 conference team.
This is the most “The European mind can’t comprehend this” moment of my life. One of my friends said, “Punch me five times tomorrow and I’ll still think this isn’t real.”

NEWS: Big Ten officials are expected to discuss in the upcoming days a league-wide mandate to not play Texas Tech in any sports, per three Big Ten sources. This is in the wake of Nebraska AD Troy Dannen informing his staff today that they aren't allowed to schedule Texas Tech.

The Sorsby ruling is disgraceful to the integrity of CFB but also disrespectful to anyone struggling with a gambling addiction.

What’s interesting is that humans have been replaced by computers in every other aspect of modern life. We’ll let computers drive our cars, manage our finances and even perform surgeries. We just don’t trust them ranking our CFB teams.
Tennessee AD Danny White made an interesting suggestion last week: Would a return to something like the BCS formula be a better way to pick College Football Playoff teams? Thanks to @BCSKnowHow, we have an idea of how that would have looked from 2014-25 on3.com/news/would-a-return-…

What happened to Phelps (and to some degree Hairston) is less about the umpires and more about baseball culture in this country. Fun is punished. Emotion even more so. There’s a reason why Team USA in the WBC wasn’t as emotional as the other teams. It was trained out of them.
Here’s the play that saw Tre Phelps get ejected and later Wes Johnson…

The story coming out of an instant classic between Tennessee and Texas Tech at the WCWS wasn't about softball – it was, and still is, about drama, and that's a damn shame. My column on the disappointing turn and my phone call with Karen Weekly: knoxnews.com/story/sports/co…

Georgia and Long Island resuming a 17-1 baseball game at 9 am seems like cruel and unusual punishment.

Getting drilled in the ribs by a foul ball as a catcher probably never feels very good. It probably feels worse at 9:04 AM

Agreed. No. 12 BYU should have been in over No. 24 James Madison because we should be taking the committee’s 12 highest ranked teams.
Yormark: "I think BYU should have made the CFP last year. There was a lot of debate around it, but I feel very strongly about their resume." (The CFP metrics had BYU quite high)

If you schedule a non conference road game at Utah you should have some general awareness that it’s likely a 10 pm ET kick. Not sure how that comes as a surprise.
