Erin Andrews is leaving college football
Today is a sad day for college football fans everywhere as Erin Andrews will no longer be covering the sport.
I’ll give you a moment to digest that and compose yourself.
According to SI.com's Richard Deitsch, Andrews' move to the No. 1 sideline reporter for Fox’s NFL coverage means that she will not be available for college football duties. Andrews had been the host of Fox Sports 1’s college football pregame show last year.
Those who have followed Andrews’ career know she made a name for herself as a college football sideline reporter with ESPN. She was assigned to ESPN’s and ABC’s top games and even hosted the first hour of ESPN’s College GameDay program on ESPNU before her move to Fox.
Earlier this week, Fox announced that Andrews would become the network’s top NFL sideline reporter replacing stalwart Pam Oliver, who was demoted to the No. 2 role. Andrews will work alongside the crew of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.

Father of deceased Wisconsin student manager looks to create endowment scholarship
A little more than a year ago, Kevin “Otis” Green, a manager for the Wisconsin football team was killed in a car accident. Now, his father, Clancy Green, is trying to create an endowment scholarship in his honor.
Last June, Green got into a car driven by Danny Consolo. Consolo was drunk, veered the car off the road and into a tree. Of the five people in the car, Green was the only one killed. Consolo is awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty in May to homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle.
Green had just graduated from Wisconsin and was about to start a job with Amazon.
But Clancy Green doesn’t want the university to forget how much his son loved the Badgers.
He established the Otis Green Foundation and its mission is to raise $250,000 to fully endow a yearly scholarship for a Wisconsin football student manager.
“I know Kevin would be very happy to be helping his peers in their educational goals,” Clancy Green told the Wisconsin State Journal. “He thoroughly enjoyed working as a student manager and I know he would want to give back. This is our means of doing that.”
But the Foundation has a long way to go.
It’s already had a couple fundraising events in the form of a golf outing and a dinner cruise and has another golf outing planned for next week. It’s a slow process, but Clancy Green is committed to making Kevin’s memory a lasting one with Wisconsin football.
“I’m confident we’ll get it done,” Clancy Green said. “I can’t say how long it’s going to take us but we are dedicated to getting it completed. It might be next year, it might be five years from now, but we’re going continue working on it and see it through.”
Those wishing to help can visit otisgreenfoundation.org for more information.

We know how much everyone loves new and outlandish uniforms, so we felt we’d be remiss if we didn’t highlight these beauties.
FCS program Southern University unveiled its new jerseys for its season-opener against Louisiana-Lafayette and they are, well, spotty.
Jerseys the Jags will wear against #ragincajuns in season opener. What do you think? #SWAC Media Day 2014 http://ift.tt/1ld2X8k
— Steve Schneider (@9SportsDirector) July 18, 2014
Southern’s mascot is the Jaguar and those are jaguar spots, but we’re not sure how we feel about the yellow and periwinkle color.
This jersey doesn’t exactly strike fear in the heart of the opponents, especially since the last time ULL and Southern met, the Ragin’ Cajuns walked away with a decisive 42-19 win.
Let's at least hope Southern band is good.

VOD: Let's all take a moment to hear Les Miles' thoughts on soccer
Today’s Video of the Day comes from the one and only Les Miles and his take on the other Futbol.
Apparently, Miles, LSU’s head coach, was swept up in soccer fever like the rest of the country and became quite the soccer aficionado. His take on FIFA, the governing body of worldwide soccer, is also, um, interesting.
And like most Les Miles quips, this was unprompted. Just way for Les Miles to break the ice in a way only Les Miles can.

Michigan regents say 'no' to fireworks after home football games
Sorry, Michigan fans, there will be no fireworks at games this season.
A vote to have fireworks set off during home games against Miami on Sept. 13 and Penn State on Oct. 11 was rejected after University of Michigan regents determined the show would have been risky and disrespectful to are residents.
The University of Michigan regents are also haters of all sparkly and fun things, including stars, diamonds and glitter.
The fireworks would have been set off from Michigan Stadium Field from the stadium’s east and west towers.

Two N.C. State coach save woman from flipped car (Photo)
Two N.C. State coaches became unexpected heroes Tuesday night when they pulled a young woman from a car that had flipped over on the side of the road.
Receivers coach Frisman Jackson and defensive coordinator Dave Huxtable were able to free the woman and reported she was fine. Frisman tweeted a picture of the car and noted that she had been texting while driving.
Coach Hux n I just pulled a young lady from her car...texting n driving can have bad consequences...she's fine btw http://ift.tt/1l51e58
— Frisman Jackson (@Frisman88) July 16, 2014
It’s good that this situation turned out OK, and Frisman and Huxtable probably made a lifelong N.C. State fan. It’s also a good life lesson about the dangers of texting while driving.
