No. 15 Marquette defeated No. 6 Purdue 76-58 on Tuesday night to snap the Boilermakers’ 39-game regular-season nonconference winning streak. A top 15 Purdue-Marquette game is the perfect matchup to burn a Tuesday evening during football season. Marquette's Kam Jones achieved the third triple-double...

Utah lost @ Colorado 49-24. Going into this game at 4-5, all the injuries to the Utes offense didn’t help, but overall Kyle Whittingham has uncharacteristically mismanaged this season, starting with the QB. With all of his mounting injuries, to the point of steady regression, Utah should’ve never pu...

It is a shocker, and even with the coaching turnover, the available personnel shouldn't be this bad.

To quote Merkin from another thread: Get the ball out in 3 seconds instead of 4 or 5. Work methodically down the field, and quit going for the homerun ball.

How long will this crap go on? We’re now at the point where second tier conferences are able to drive major headlines just by calling Overpass State or Subdivision U to gauge their interest. Maybe when it all converges to a single conference housing all 133 teams?
