SCS.comTEXAS SHOULD BE GOING TO THE BIG XII TITLE
November 30, 2008
By Matt, SCS.com Staff Writer
I am going to jump right into it. Texas deserves to go to Kansas City to play Missouri for the Big 12 title. BCS proponents love to say that college football’s regular season is a playoff. If so, Texas beat Oklahoma on a neutral field by ten points. In my opinion, that is end of story. Yes, Texas lost to Texas Tech on the road on a last second play. However, Texas was a play away from winning that game in which the Red Raiders....[MORE]

SCS.comBATTLE FOR THE SOONER STATE LEADS WEEK
November 28, 2008
By Gregg, SCS.com Staff Writer
The top of the rankings were shuffled again this past weekend as Oklahoma manhandled the second ranked Red Raiders of Texas Tech as the Sooners made their case for a spot in the national championship game. Top-ranked Alabama had the week off as did other national title contenders Texas and Southern Cal while Florida took time on Saturday to paste The Citadel by a 70-19 score. Looking ahead to this weekend....[MORE]

SCS.comRED RAIDERS MAKE A MIGHTY MESS OF THE BCS
November 25, 2008
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
Rivalry Saturday? Showdown Saturday? Last weekend would have been more appropriately titled, Blowout Saturday. What's left in the rubble of blowouts all across the country is a little more clarity on the ten BCS participants, and a whole lot of fogginess near the top 2. The most important blowout on Saturday was Oklahoma beating Texas Tech 65-21. The Red Raiders drop into a three-way tie with Oklahoma and....[MORE]

SCS.comCOLLEGE HOOPS' FEAST WEEK IS UPON US
November 24, 2008
By Daniel, SCS.com Staff Writer
How much college basketball can you handle? Feast Week is here, and that means college basketball will be on television all day from Monday through Sunday. The Maui Invitation and the Old Spice Classic will be the main attractions this week, with a combined seven top 25 teams participating in the two tournaments. The Pre-Season NIT features a possible Purdue/Oklahoma match-up, and the Anaheim Classic and the....[MORE]

SCS.comBIG 12 CHAOS - WHO DESERVES A SHOT?
November 24, 2008
By Matt, SCS.com Staff Writer
Of course Texas Tech lost to Oklahoma. There was no doubt in my mind. After two weeks of picking against the Red Raiders, I gave them my vote of confidence. I picked them to get the win against Oklahoma on the road. The game was not even close. The score was 42-7...at halftime! The final was 65-21, a beat-down of epic proportions. Oklahoma solidified itself as one of the best teams in the nation. They ran for 300 yards....[MORE]

SCS.comBIG XII SOUTH RETURNS TO SPOTLIGHT
November 20, 2008
By Gregg, SCS.com Staff Writer
Last weekend’s slate of games had minimal impact atop the national rankings as all of the title challengers emerged victorious in convincing fashion. Alabama, Texas, and Florida continued to flex their muscles with impressive wins while Texas Tech and Oklahoma had the week off before their huge match-up this Saturday night. Looking ahead, the Red Raiders make yet another appearance in the national spotlight game....[MORE]

SCS.comMIZZOU GRABS TITLE DESPITE CHILLY TEMPS
November 19, 2008
By Michael, SCS.com Staff Writer
Jack Trice Stadium is not a friendly place to play. It’s not a friendly place to watch a game either, especially not in mid-November; however, all of the bad karma was put to rest as the Mizzou Tigers defeated Iowa State and secured a spot in the Big 12 Championship for the second straight season. Our trip started early Friday morning as we arrived at the facility just after six. While it was an early start to the day, everyone was just glad....[MORE]

SCS.comRIVALRY & HEISMAN TALK IN LATE NOVEMBER
November 18, 2008
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
For the first time in recent memory, a weekend that looked terrible on paper ended up with no drama and no surprises, unless you consider how many points Florida puts up interesting. In a weekend where the NFL has had multiple overtime games (including a tie!) and lots of drama, Saturday just did not have it. There's good news though, and that's rivalry week is here! OK, well maybe rivalry weeks, since many have moved....[MORE]

SCS.comNOW COLLEGE BASKETBALL REALLY BEGINS
November 17, 2008
By Daniel, SCS.com Staff Writer
Hopefully you enjoyed Week One, because Week Two is about to get a whole lot better. Surely you can’t honestly tell me you enjoyed watching the preliminary 2k Sports or CBE Classic games, unless you take pleasure in seeing lowly mid-majors get blown out of the building. This week, the pre-season tournaments are starting to heat up and we may even see our first top five match-up of the season on Friday. Before we look....[MORE]

SCS.comTOP TEAMS KEEP WINNING; RACES TIGHTEN
November 17, 2008
By Matt, SCS.com Staff Writer
Alabama, Southern California, Florida, Penn State, and Texas were all favored by 13 points or more. They all won by double digits. Some of the games were close at halftime, but the finals were blowouts. I am beginning to wonder when the BCS chaos will start. As of right now, everything is going as expected. Where is the Stanford over USC upset? Illinois over Ohio State? Kentucky over LSU? Am I crazy to think that the BCS....[MORE]

SCS.comHOOPS PREVIEW: BIG EAST, PAC 10, SEC
November 14, 2008
By Daniel, SCS.com Staff Writer
SCS.com’s final conference preview will be all over the place. The Big East is easily the nation’s best basketball conference, with several Final Four threats and more than ten teams with NCAA tournament aspirations. The SEC, on the other hand, may be the worst BCS conference other than the Big Ten. The Pac-10 is more toward the middle, with some strong teams at the top in UCLA, Arizona State, and USC, but several....[MORE]

SCS.comSEC EAST TUSSLE HIGHLIGHTS WEEKEND
November 13, 2008
By Gregg, SCS.com Staff Writer
The last weekend of action provided more shuffling atop the national rankings as Penn State fell from the ranks of the unbeaten in an upset loss to Iowa. Meanwhile, Texas Tech flexed its muscle with a huge 56-20 pummeling of a very good Oklahoma State team as the Raiders moved to 10-0 on the season while Alabama also remained unbeaten by surviving against LSU by a 27-21 score in overtime....[MORE]

SCS.comCOLD TEMPS FAIL TO COOL OFF TIGERS
November 12, 2008
By Michael, SCS.com Staff Writer
The frigid temperatures and below freezing wind chill were unable to cool off the Missouri offense on Saturday night as the Tigers rolled to another impressive victory beating Kansas State 41-24 on Senior Night at Faurot Field. While the cold temperatures did not slow down the offense they did make for some extra set up duties for the equipment staff. On Friday, in addition to our typical pre-game duties, we made sure we had....[MORE]

SCS.comCOACHING RANKS FACE DILEMMA
November 12, 2008
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
Another week of college football in November, another unforeseeable upset. Before delving into that, there's a storm brewing in college football and national television networks are already clamoring for change in November. This time, it's not the BCS! Instead, the mid-season firings of Tyrone Willingham and this week's victim, Ron Prince at Kansas State, have the pundits screaming for blood over the dearth of....[MORE]

SCS.comBAMA, TECH SEPARATE FROM THE REST
November 11, 2008
By Matt, SCS.com Staff Writer
Alabama and Texas Tech are trying their hardest to avoid a BCS controversy. Both teams are taking care of business. Both are undefeated. However, both have huge tests ahead. Tech has Oklahoma in two weeks before finishing with Baylor. If they manage to win both games, they will likely play Missouri in the Big 12 championship game. Texas Tech just rolled over Oklahoma State 56-20, but Oklahoma is a different....[MORE]

SCS.comCOLLEGE HOOPS TIPS OFF - WEEK ONE
November 10, 2008
By Daniel, SCS.com Staff Writer
Here’s the good news: college basketball tips off this week. Still, I’ll go ahead and suggest that you keep watching football. The matchups for week one of NCAA hoops are that bad. Just be patient for now—next week will be packed with marquee games. Until then, enjoy football season for at least another week. But if you’re a diehard basketball fan and you want to know what’s coming up this week, here’s what....[MORE]

SCS.comHOOPS PREVIEW: ACC, BIG TEN, & BIG XII
November 8, 2008
By Daniel, SCS.com Staff Writer
With the SCS.com Hoops Preview winding down, we turn our attention to three of the BCS conferences: the ACC, Big Ten and Big 12. The ACC will be the strongest league in the nation outside of the Big East, with two Final Four contenders (Duke and North Carolina) and several teams worthy of NCAA tournament consideration. The Big 12 and Big Ten are more top-heavy, but while the bottom of each league is questionable....[MORE]

SCS.comBIG XII SOUTH CLASH SETS THE STAGE
November 6, 2008
By Gregg, SCS.com Staff Writer
The top of the rankings received another shake-up this past weekend as the Texas Longhorns were knocked from their perch atop the polls after a thrilling last minute touchdown drive by Texas Tech secured the upset. There remain three unbeaten teams atop the rankings with Alabama now leading the way, but the Tide are followed closely by both Texas Tech and Penn State. This weekend’s highlight game yet again features....[MORE]

SCS.comA NAIL-BITER IN TEXAS
November 5, 2008
By Michael, SCS.com Staff Writer
If you are going to travel twelve hours on a charter bus, you might as well get your money out of it. While a blowout would have been nice, watching the Tigers squeak out a 3-point victory sure made for an interesting trip to Central Texas. It was another late Thursday night departure time as we headed out of Columbia. The bus arrived at the athletic complex just before 11 pm and 30 minutes later we were headed towards....[MORE]

SCS.comCOLLEGE HOOPS PREVIEW: MID-MAJORS, PART 2
November 1, 2008
By Daniel, SCS.com Staff Writer
Can you believe it? We’re a little more than a week away from the tip-off of college basketball, which begins on Nov. 10 with an ultra-exciting match-up between Georgia Southern and Houston. That means all of the speculation and pre-season previews will finally be put to rest. In the meantime, we’ve still got the rest of the mid-majors and all of the BCS conferences to cover. Today’s preview is Part II of the....[MORE]
