Four Penn State players arrested in 'egg-throwing incident'



Oh, those crazy college kids.


Four Penn State players were arrested Thursday night – mischief night – for an “egg throwing situation,” according to Onward State.


The four players, tight end Brent Wilkerson, safety Anthony Smith, center Wendy Laurent and defensive end Garrett Sickels, were all charged with criminal mischief for throwing eggs at Beaver Hall, an on-campus residence hall.


Discipline from head coach James Franklin could be on the way.


“We are aware of the egg throwing situation that occurred Thursday evening and will determine the appropriate measures for the four squad members involved,” Franklin said in statement.


The incident, which was reported to police by a student at Beaver Hall, took place between 10:36 and 11:18 p.m. Thursday night.


Sickels, a redshirt freshman, has played in all seven games this season, registering three tackles and a sack. In six games, Wilkerson, a sophomore, has two catches for 18 yards and a touchdown while Laurent, who has played in four games this year, saw his most significant playing time last weekend against Ohio State. With starting tackle Donovan Smith questionable to play Saturday against Maryland, Laurent, also a sophomore, was potentially set to see some more playing time. Now his status is up in the air.


Smith has not played this season.


The Nittany Lions and Terps square off at noon Saturday at Beaver Stadium.

Jimbo Fisher got pricelessly videobombed after the Louisville game (Video)



Well, this man videobombing Jimbo Fisher has good eyebrow-moving skills.


During the Florida State coach's postgame interview with ESPN after his Seminoles beat Louisville, a man gave the camera an interesting look behind Fisher and ESPN's Samantha Ponder.


The man was apparently a bowl representative.

West Virginia president E. Gordon Gee apologizes to TCU with 'College GameDay' sign (Photo)



Former Ohio State president E. Gordon Gee caused quite a stir back in 2010 when he referred to the opponents of BCS contenders like TCU and Boise State as “Little Sisters of the Poor.”


Now, four years later, Gee is West Virginia’s president and the Mountaineers, ranked No. 20 in the College Football Playoff rankings, host No. 7 TCU on Saturday.


ESPN’s College GameDay will be on hand for the Big 12 contest. To get in the GameDay spirit, Gee created the perfect sign, equipped with an apology to TCU.



Working on some signs for @CollegeGameDay! Here is one for my friends at @TCU_Athletics. http://ift.tt/1nWXo4W


— E. Gordon Gee (@gordongee) October 31, 2014

After the comments blew up in his face, Gee issued a few public apologies and later spent some time with group. The leader of the Little Sisters also said publicly that she forgave Gee.


It’s cool to see four years later that Gee has a sense of humor about it.


The two teams will kick off at 3:30 p.m. ET.

Big 12 commish Bob Bowlsby says Longhorn Network is a 'boulder in the road' of league TV plans



As Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby looks into the future of his conference’s television arrangements, one channel stands in the way.


Specifically, Bowlsby referred to the Longhorn Network – the ESPN-operated channel devoted entirely to Texas athletics – as a “boulder in the road” in the way of long-term television planning for the conference.


“(Texas) did something that almost no other institution in the country could do because of the population in the state, and we’re looking at some way to try and morph that around a little bit,” Bowlsby said, per the Austin American Statesman.


“It really begs the question about, how are we going to get our sports in the years ahead?,” Bowlsby continued. “If technology changes in the next five years as much as it’s changed in the last five years, we’re not going to be getting our sports by cable TV. I don’t know what it’ll be. But increasingly, we’re using mobile devices … Google Network and Apple TV and things like that are coming into play.”


Instead of following the pattern set by the Big Ten, Pac-12 and SEC networks, Bowlsby is thinking outside the box for the Big 12.


“I’m not sure the world needs another exclusive college cable network,” Bowlsby said. “Rather than trying to do what everybody else has done, I would much rather try to figure out what tomorrow’s technology is and get on the front side of that and be a part of what happens going forward and monetize that.”


Though it was added by Dish Network, Longhorn Network has not been picked up by other cable providers like DirecTV. Additionally, the Statesman’s Brian Davis writes that Texas officials tried to “boost LHN’s value by adding football games” to its broadcast schedule, but “it’s doubtful” the league office would allow Texas to broadcast a “marquee game” on the network.


As expansion talks pertaining to the Big 12 linger, Bowlsby’s moves when it comes to future media deals is worth keeping an eye on moving forward. Navigating around LHN’s presence could prove to be a significant hindrance.

Spread Options: Dr. Saturday's Week 10 picks against the spread



After a 6-4 Week 9, we're 37-52-1 for the season. Only 15 games back of .500!


Cincinnati (-6.5) at Tulane, 8 p.m. ET FRIDAY: Cincinnati QB Gunner Kiel is listed as probable for the game, so we're banking on a strong performance from him. But don't be surprised to see QB Munchie Legaux at QB for a series or two as well. Legaux's hometown is New Orleans and it'd be a great gesture by coach Tommy Tuberville after Legaux has fought back from a knee injury. If you're looking for a reason why the Tulane offense is going to keep up with Cincinnati, we don't have one. The Green Wave hasn't topped 13 points since Sept. 20.


Duke (+3.5) at Pitt, Noon ET: The 6-1 Blue Devils are dogs? Look, we now that what Pitt did in terms of fumbles in the first quarter against Georgia Tech was absurd and may never happen again, at least to the Panthers. But the Blue Devils have become adaptable on offense and are again becoming the favorites in the ACC Coastal. We like Anthony Boone to have a good day.


Oklahoma at Iowa State (+16.5), Noon ET: No, we're not calling this a big upset, but crazy things happen in Ames, Iowa, and have you learned to trust Oklahoma this season? No? Good. Neither have we. If this was around 10 points, Oklahoma would be the pick, but Sam Richardson and Iowa State will make the game entertaining and prevent it from being a blowout. Plus, you should check in a little bit just to see a Paul Rhodes moment.


East Carolina (-7.5) at Temple, Noon ET: Alright East Carolina, here's your chance to start playing the disrespect card. The Pirates were 23rd in the rankings that came out on Tuesday. While they're in the driver's seat over Marshall for the spot for the New Year's bowl berth that goes to the highest-ranked non-qualifying conference team, there's absolutely no hope of a Playoff berth. Not that we were expecting any, but it should at least serve as good motivational fodder, right?


North Carolina (+14.5) at Miami, 12:30 p.m. ET: The Tar Heels eked out a victory against Virginia while Miami blew out Virginia Tech last week and we're of the thought this line is skewed towards Miami because of the blowout. North Carolina's offense is markedly better than Virginia Tech's at this point and will keep the game within two touchdowns.


Virginia at Georgia Tech (-4), 3:30 p.m. ET: Here's why this line is so close. Virginia is ninth in the country in rushing defense, and as we all know, Georgia Tech is a ground-based offense. However, Virginia hasn't faced a triple-option team all season. The Cavaliers' two-game losing streak goes to three and Mike London's seat gets warmer.


Florida vs. Georgia (-10.5), 3:30 p.m. ET (in Jacksonville): Muschamp's last stand? With or without Todd Gurley this should be a walk for Georgia. Yes, it's a rivalry game and the adage of never knowing what to expect can play here. But Georgia's defense has gotten better as the season has gone on and Florida's offense has regressed.


Stanford at Oregon (-8), 7:30 p.m. ET: Stanford's first in the country in scoring defense and likely has looked heavily at how Arizona upset the Ducks in Eugene earlier this season. And the Cardinal are flat out the kryptonite for the Ducks. That said, this Stanford team doesn't have the offensive capability (88th in scoring offense) to play with Oregon if the defense doesn't play an A+ game. Stanford may hold Oregon under 30, but it won't matter if the offense isn't proficient.


Oklahoma State at Kansas State (-12), 8 p.m. ET: The Wildcats at home in a night game against an opponent that has looked poor in its past two games? Give us the magic of Bill Snyder, please. Kansas State's defense is one of the more underrated units in the country and OSU QB Daxx Garman has struggled. Since tossing four TDs against Texas Tech, he's thrown three touchdowns and seven interceptions in his past seven games.


Arizona (+6.5) at UCLA, 10:30 p.m. ET: We mentioned how UCLA was 1-6 against the spread last week. And with the double-overtime win against Colorado, the Bruins are now 1-7. We're never really sure what to expect from UCLA from week-to-week and this is simply a pick that's going with the trend.

Reports: Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon resigns



Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon will resign at a news conference Friday afternoon, according to ESPN’s Brett McMurphy, TheWolverine.com, and The Detroit News. The university announced late Friday morning that it’d hold a 1:30 p.m. ET news conference hosted by president Mark Schlissel, but did not provide specifics other than saying that Schlissel would be making an announcement.


According to The Detroit News, Brandon is “not expected to attend” the news conference and an interim AD is expected to be named.


Brandon’s expected resignation marks the end of a problematic last few months. In addition to the Wolverines’ 3-5 start on the football field under Brady Hoke, whom Brandon hired, Brandon has been criticized for the handling of Shane Morris’ head injury after the quarterback took a hard hit to the helmet, appeared woozy on the field, stayed in for a play and then was brought back into the game for another play later on in the game.


UM students, who had been displeased with student ticket prices and other issues, held a protest demanding that Brandon be fired soon after the incident.


Earlier this week, Stephen Ross – Michigan’s biggest donor – told the Wall Street Journal that he would not interfere with any decision involving Brandon’s job status. On Tuesday, MGoBlog, a popular Michigan sports blog, published several email exchanges between Brandon and fans. Among the testy exchanges included Brandon allegedly telling a fan: “I suggest you find a new team to support. We will be fine without you. Have a happy life.”


Brandon, a Michigan alum and former football player, was hired in January 2010.

What to watch, Week 10: Which ranked team is in for a fright?



It’s almost like the season has started anew.


With the recent release of the College Football Playoff rankings, the race is on to become one of the nation’s top four teams and now every team knows exactly how far they must go to achieve that goal..


The rankings we saw this week will be different next week thanks to several key matchups that pit ranked teams, but it will be interesting to see if the level of play changes now we’re headed down the home stretch.


Here’s what to watch in Week 10:


Game of the week:

No. 3 Auburn at No. 4 Ole Miss, 7 p.m. ET

When the College Football Playoff rankings were announced Tuesday, no one saw this game being a matchup that would knock one team out of playoff contention. Both of these programs already have a loss and can ill-afford another, especially with several one-loss teams nipping at their heels. We already know Auburn’s offense can score, but it’s defense looked suspect against South Carolina last week. Ole Miss looked great on defense in its loss to LSU, but the offense couldn’t score for three quarters and quarterback Bo Wallace let his frustration get the better of him at the end. This game will come down to the fourth quarter.


Game to watch:

No. 7 TCU at No. 20 West Virginia, 3:30 p.m. ET


Like Scoring? Hate defense? Well, this game might be right up your alley. TCU has been the big surprise of the Big 12 with an offense that has rivaled any in the country this season. Quarterback Trevon Boykin has become a legitimate Heisman contender and the Horned Frogs are poised to crash the College Football Playoff. This is exactly where West Virginia wants them. It’s easy to forget West Virginia is in the hunt for a conference title, too, and a win in this game would go a long way toward that goal. West Virginia has already held the two potent offenses it’s faced so far this season — Baylor and Oklahoma — well below their offensive average. Is TCU next?


Also check out…

No. 17 Utah at No. 14 Arizona State, 11 p.m. ET


There’s some bad history between these two teams, especially after Arizona stormed back from a 19-7 fourth-quarter deficit last season to beat the Utes 20-19. Utah has lost 10 straight to the Sun Devils dating back to 1976, but this team is probably as good as any to break that streak. This game will be all about the Utah defense shutting down quarterback Taylor Kelly and the ASU offense. Last week, the Utes were able to top Cody Kessler and USC and now put themselves in a position to grab at least a share of the Pac-12 South title. Arizona struggled some with Washington last week and this could be another hotly-contested game. One thing is for sure though, this game is definitely a reason to tune in to Pac 12 After Dark.


Don't waste your time with:

No. 15 Nebraska at Purdue, 3:30 p.m. ET


Why is this game in this section? Well, Purdue has made things interesting this season for some teams, so it’s not totally out of the realm of possibility that it could do the same for the Huskers. The Boilermakers played close with Notre Dame and gave Michigan State fits before the Spartans pulled away. Those games should serve as cautionary tales for the Huskers, and behind Heisman hopeful Ameer Abdullah, they should shut this one down early.


Keep an eye on:

Bo Wallace, QB, Ole Miss


If you listen to the Dr. Saturday podcast, and you should, I expressed concern about some friction between Wallace and coach Hugh Freeze. Why? Well, Freeze threw his QB under the bus (rightfully so) after throwing up an ill-advised pass in the waning seconds of last Saturday’s loss to LSU. Similarly, Wallace not-so-subtly called out his coach for conservative play calling. Look, Wallace has been a changed player this year, but his final play against LSU, his antics toward the crowd during the game and these comments reek of the old Bo Wallace trying to surface. Wallace has helped the Rebels get this far, it would be a shame to see it all fall apart now. Can he be the composed player we’ve seen most of this SEC season against Auburn? Or will the old Bo come back to bite him?


Upset alert:

No. 18 Oklahoma (-16.5) at Iowa State, 12 p.m. ET


Strange things happen in Ames, that is an undeniable fact. While the Cyclones probably won’t win this game outright, this contest has a chance to be a lot closer than people expect. Remember, this is the same Iowa State team that gave Kansas State and Baylor a little bit of a run for their money at home, so don’t expect this game against the Sooners to be any different.

Georgia's appeal of Todd Gurley suspension denied; Gurley still eligible Nov. 15



Georgia's appeal to have RB Todd Gurley eligible sooner than November 15 has been denied.


The NCAA said in a statement this week that Gurley would be reinstated for the Bulldogs' game against Auburn on November 15 after serving a four-game suspension for accepting over $3,000 for autographing items over multiple years.


Georgia immediately appealed the decision in the hopes that Gurley could play as soon as Saturday against Florida. The suspension was upheld. It was for 30 percent of the season because of the amount of money Gurley accepted.


"We are very disappointed in tonight's decision by the Division I Student-Athlete Reinstatement Committee regarding our appeal on Todd Gurley's eligibility reinstatement," a Georgia statement read. "We believe our case to the NCAA for Todd's immediate reinstatement was strong and compelling. However, we now have exhausted all available options and look forward to Todd's return to competition on November 15. The full attention of the Bulldog Nation now needs to be focused on our team and Saturday's important game against Florida."


Per the NCAA's statement, the sanctioning body considered other penalties but because of Georgia's self-reporting and cooperation on the issue, it was left at four games. Gurley will miss games against Missouri, Arkansas, Florida and Kentucky.


No Gurley against Florida on Saturday means that freshman RB Nick Chubb will start again. He has 99 carries for 569 yards this season.
