USC shouldn’t game, or blame, BCS system
USC shouldn’t game, or blame, BCS system Once upon a whine, another traditional powerhouse college football team got jobbed. Four autumns ago, another great college football team was denied a chance to play for a national title because it was a lousy year for its conference. Auburn, undefeated and unrecognized in 2004, could not complain…

Fulmer had let his guard down
Fulmer had let his guard down This particular lunch was a couple of summers ago, a chance for the guy who coaches for a living to compare notes with the guy who critiques coaches for a living.

Spoiler alerts! BCS bulls still have to face bears
Spoiler alerts! BCS bulls still have to face bears They’re here way too early. Alabama No. 1? Nick Saban is an accomplished coach but he’s not St. Nick, patron saint of the SEC West. The guy lays hands on both of his lines and suddenly they’re able to move trucks. A couple of novenas are…

http://www.shreveporttimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20081105/SPORTS0202/811050307/1026/SPORTS02 BATON ROUGE — With plot lines running as deep as the neighboring Mississippi River, one facet of Saturday’s showdown between No. 1 Alabama (9-0, 5-0 SEC) and No. 15 LSU (6-2, 3-2) should reveal the winner — the running game.

Will Tennessee get the rock star coach it wants?
Will Tennessee get the rock star coach it wants? Given where the Tennessee football program is in relation to its biggest SEC rivals (Alabama, Florida, Georgia), an entirely logical case can be made for asking Phillip Fulmer to step aside after 16 years as head coach.

Jerry West still is a reluctant sports hero
Jerry West still is a reluctant sports hero Describing Jerry West is a little like analyzing molecules. Always has been. He is a contradiction to contradictions, a right turn on a racing oval. Over the years, fittingly so, he spent most of his time with basketball players. It might have worked better had it been…

Cohen installs new philosophy at Dudy Noble
Cohen installs new philosophy at Dudy Noble STARKVILLE — It’s a sunny Sunday afternoon and a pitch is zooming to Dudy Noble Field’s home plate.
