Florida’s program built to endure
Florida’s program built to endure The 2008 SEC championship game loss to Florida was what drove the Alabama players as much as anything last year.

The challenge of replacing McCluster
The challenge of replacing McCluster McCluster was the SEC’s most dynamic offensive player over the second half of last season. He kept the pressure off the Ole Miss offense because he was always breaking long runs for touchdowns or setting up the offense with big plays. The Rebels didn’t have to rely on long, grind-it-out…

SEC should keep its foot on the clutch
SEC should keep its foot on the clutch If other big conferences expand, the SEC should be ready to make a move from 12 schools to 16.

UM’s Pomeranz picked 5th overall by Indians
UM’s Pomeranz picked 5th overall by Indians “I’d like to end up in the big leagues in three years,” he said. “We’ll see how negotiations go.” Pomeranz, too, seems likely to forego college ball next season in exchange for a lucrative payday.

A word of caution for conferences wishing to expand
A word of caution for conferences wishing to expand There’s a terrific book by Barbara Tuchman entitled “The Guns of August,” a beautifully crafted piece on World War I that is, at its core, an essay on how the utter miscalculations of tactical planning dictated years of needless conflict. I mention this not as a…
