After a big weekend in the Las Vegas Classic, that included a 3-0 record with wins over Washington, Illinois and Texas Tech, the Texas Longhorns baseball team has jumped five spots in the latest USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll. The Horns are now No. 9 in the nation and boast a 9-1 record. UT is unbeaten since dropping the season …

Getty Images Carson Beck is bringing back some national championship vibes to his new team, the Miami Hurricanes. The Georgia transfer is set to wear No. 11, according to Inside the U, the same number as former ‘Canes starter Ken Dorsey, the most recent quarterback to lead Miami to a national championship in 2001.  Beck is the first primary starting …

Alabama football has a lot of experience at the top of its linebacker depth chart. Both Deontae Lawson and Justin Jefferson are returning for another season. The Crimson Tide also added Colorado senior transfer Nikhai Hill-Green to bolster its middle linebacker spot. But the majority of that veteran experience will not be seen this spring. Lawson is out. Jefferson is …

The Oregon Ducks had one of the most successful seasons in program history last year, going 13-1 with a Big Ten Championship win and a No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff. Now, in 2025, they will look to reach the same heights once again, but this time around with almost an entirely new roster. Since coming to Eugene, Dan Lanning …

After all the hyperbole and histrionics, all the wasted millions in legal fees, we now see the crux of the situation. Florida State brought a knife to a gun fight. Wait, it did less than that. It brought the fantasy of what could be. And Clemson followed. If you’re shocked by the latest twist in the ACC vs. Florida State …

Caleb Downs joined Ohio State football, in part, to win a national championship. That he did, and Downs played a huge part in the Buckeyes’ success this season. Ohio State, up until a battle with Michigan to end the regular season, looked like the best team in college football, having only a one-point loss on its resume up until that …

Ryan Grubb has a luxury as Alabama football’s new offensive coordinator. Although coach Kalen DeBoer has given Grubb play-calling duties, co-offensive coordinator Nick Sheridan will remain as the quarterbacks coach. That’s an atypical chain of command, but for Grubb, it means he’s got the freedom to spend time with every offensive position. That includes quarterback, but given his background as …

The Oklahoma Sooners continued their strong start to the 2025 season, moving to 11-0 on the year with a three-game sweep of Cal State Northridge in Norman. Oklahoma went 5-0 last week against Texas Southern and Cal State Northridge by a combined score of 42-12. After remaining undefeated this week, the Sooners moved up two spots to No. 12 in …

It’s hard to blame Bret Bielema for feeling good about himself these days. In the last few months, the outspoken Illinois coach has done battle with fellow coaches, be it on social media or, more famously, on the field with South Carolina coach Shane Beamer during a 21-17 win over the Gamecocks in the Citrus Bowl. That win was Illinois’ …

While Kalen DeBoer listed off an extensive injury list after Alabama football’s first spring practice of 2025, none of them are new. “Pretty much most of those injuries are all from last season still and expected,” DeBoer said. “So nothing new there from our standpoint.” But while an injury on the Alabama offensive line is nothing new, it’s something the …

Getty Images Texas is targeting former West Virginia coach Neal Brown for a role on its staff, according to Matt Zenitz. Brown spent six years with the Mountaineers and went 1-1 against Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian, but was fired at the end of the 2024 regular season.   Brown led the Mountaineers to a 31-23 win over Texas in 2021, …

There’s no roadmap from a blackboard in the Arkansas football office where this all started for Jimmy Johnson six decades ago — no roadmap through six decades of games and teams and various jobs to the phone call he made a few days ago to Fox Sports executives. But there he was having decided his second, or maybe third or …

Spring has sprung for Alabama football. The second year of the Kalen DeBoer era has officially begun, as the Crimson Tide began its spring practice schedule Monday which will culminate in the team’s annual A-Day spring game at noon April 12 at Bryant-Denny Stadium. But while spring practice has started, Alabama will not have a full roster at its expense. …

Getty Images Florida State and Clemson will vote Tuesday on an agreement that would settle their four ongoing lawsuits against the ACC and a new revenue-distribution strategy, according to ESPN. While the terms of a settlement would have to be approved by the ACC Board of Directors and Clemson and Florida State’s respective boards of trustees, ESPN notes that the …

There’s a new defensive coordinator in town. A new co-defensive coordinator, too. Vanderbilt football coach Clark Lea on Monday named Steve Gregory the Commodores’ new defensive coordinator, while Nick Lezynski was promoted to co-defensive coordinator. Gregory and Lezynski take over the position from Lea. Gregory served as the Commodores’ associate defensive coordinator and secondary coach last season, his first with …
