Alabama football’s Jalen Milroe did not own a video game console prior to the release of EA Sports College Football 25.

Read More »Big Ten primer: Northwestern’s greatest football moment
Northwestern has been competitive in the past 30 years of college football, but for a very long time, the Wildcats were abysmal. They were one of the worst teams in college football in the 1970s and 1980s. They were largely irrelevant for many decades in the Big Ten. USC fans who are at least 40 years old remember the 1996 …

On one hand, it’s weird. It’s weird that Oklahoma fans would be so quick to say that they’re so much better off with Brent Venables and without Lincoln Riley. It’s weird because Riley made three College Football Playoff appearances, won four straight Big 12 championships as a head coach (six as a member of the Oklahoma staff), and generally kept …

Read More »Big Ten primer: Indiana’s greatest football moment
The Indiana Hoosiers take pride in their basketball. They don’t have a rich and lengthy history in college football. They have won the Big Ten championship exactly twice in more than 120 years of competitive football. That long run of futility at least makes it easier to identify the program’s greatest moment. The 1945 Indiana team went unbeaten and tied …

Read More »Big Ten primer: Purdue’s greatest football moment
The Purdue Boilermakers do not have many great football moments in what has largely been a snake-bitten Big Ten gridiron history. That reality — that Purdue doesn’t have a whole lot of shining moments to point to — makes it easier to identify the best moment the Boilermakers have ever enjoyed on a football field. It came against USC. The …
