What did we just learn from Joe Paterno? Erecting a statue for someone while they're still alive and their legacy is not yet fully formed is risky business. And sometimes backfires.

#67 Southern Miss Golden Eagles: College Football 77 in 77
Southern Miss did something last year no one else in college football could do- beat Houston and Case Keenum.

#72 Colorado Buffaloes: College Football 77 in 77
Last year I was not very high on the Colorado Buffaloes heading into college football season, and the C Buffs did not disappoint going 3-10 and losing 7 in midseason.

Did he not know the … [Read more...] about LSU Honey Badger Video, App, Song Drinking Game
Beware LSU Honey Badger Tyrann Mathieu, Physically and Psychologically
Funny thing about tonight's college football national title game, the biggest star on one side, LSU, their Heisman Trophy finalist is actually a cornerback: Tyrann Mathieu.
