National college football writer at The Athletic. Completed the last pass in my high school's only playoff victory.
This is deplorable. Yeah, I used that word.

There’s never been a Senator who needed dental floss to scrape out the dingleberries between his teeth before LG.

Oh, and I found this funny.

I saw this the other day and I was wondering if this was a standing line item for all Packers shareholders.

Finally, a beautiful morning in Eastern Iowa. A perfect time to move the office outside and start season 20 covering sports in this area. Love it!

Take a look at center Logan Jones, right guard Connor Colby (now with the 49ers) and especially right tackle Gennings Dunker.

A few pictures from Big Ten media days this week: Big Bret’s shoes, Andy & Ari with Kirk Ferentz, Nico Iamaleava and my third straight year of taking a selfie with the Nebraska mannequin.

Our weeklong series on college football rivalries starts on Monday.

I ranked the Top 100 in CFB history after comparing around 150. Here’s a peek at the cumulative power-conference team numbers. There are also G5/FCS & lower-division rivalries.

Among the many offseason stats I keep include Big Ten draft numbers by position.

Here's a glance from the 2019-25 drafts featuring Big Ten DL/Edge (not OLB) by 247Sports composite star status & whether they were transfers. For transfers, star is based upon B1G arrival, not HS.

On this day, 160 years ago, the Big Ten North clinched the first (and hopefully only) Civil War Playoff title. No Gatorade bath, however.

Beth Goetz discusses hiring Ben McCollum

Payton Sandfort said he broke his wrist against Washington State. Dislocated his right shoulder against UCLA, then against Oregon. He can barely walk and his elbow hurts. If there was a player who epitomized what Chris Street represents, it’s Payton Sandfort.

From Big Ten media days to the home finale for Lucy Olsen and Hannah Stuelke. Lisa Bluder still is uber popular and Jan Jensen finished her first regular season with 20 wins and victories in 8 of Iowa’s last 10 games.
