NCAA needs to shake up enforcement efforts
These are dark times for the NCAA. As an organization in charge of monitoring all things college athletics, the NCAA has prided itself with creating a certain brand of integrity.

Notre Dame better cover its bases to avoid another upset loss at USC
Let's see if I've got this straight or crooked: Notre Dame needs one win to get to the national title game and Sports Illustrated puts the Irish on this week's cover?

The Times' top 25 college football rankings
This could be a first in the history of Rankman — two teams in the top 25 with the nickname Aggies: Texas A&M (11) and Utah State (24). Throw in Kansas State (8) if you count the nearby "Aggieville" bar scene. Missing the Aggies cut: North...

Oregon keeps winning, and falling in BCS standings
Oregon can't afford to keep winning like this. A few more lopsided victories and the Ducks could finish last in the BCS and end up playing in the Toilet Bowl. On Thursday, Oregon sprinted to a 43-7, second-quarter lead on Arizona State and might have...
