Purple Yeti Roar 26: Bold Scandals!

There’s not much else going on this week except the Freeh report and Penn State.  So I yammer on about that as well as some other scandalous item like, Joe Paterno, Big 10, Pac 12, Kansas State, Manase Foketi, Notre Dame, BYU, Utah, the Holy War, EA Sports NCAA College Football 2012, and the BCS.

Smith. Continue reading Purple Yeti Roar 25: Getting Old and Feeling Bold

Purple Yeti Roar 24: Celebratin’ ‘Merica and Happy Things

I’m kicking of the festivities early this year and celebrating Independence Day a little early.  Why you ask?  Well, it could be that after all of the NCAA playoff announcements, Notre Dame will still be independent.  Or it could be Erin Andrews heading to Fox Sports to host a college football pregame show.  Or it could be that West Virginia and TCU are officially in the Big 12.  Nope.  It’s that Texas A&M and Missouri are gone from the Big 12.  Happy Days!  Time to celebrate with some Colorado Buffalo beer.

Purple Yeti Roar 23: Reckless Irish Eyeballin’

So this week I’m excited to present my takes on college football with a tasty sun drenched backlight!  Besides my production glee, I delve into Notre Dame’s batted eyes for another conference.  Namely the Big 12.  But if that gets too sappy, I’ll talk about UCLA, Kansas State, Texas, Texas Tech, Harvey Updyke, and College Football Playoffs Continue reading Purple Yeti Roar 23: Reckless Irish Eyeballin’

Purple Yeti Roar 18: Bigger and Better Bowls(by)

Yeah I’m not sure if Bob Bowlsby (new Big 12 Commish) had anything to do with what happened in the last week, but I’m giving him credit.  Not in the video, just in this note about the video.  I was too busy gushing about the new bowl series matchup between the Big 12 and the SEC, Florida State’s (and Clemson’s) apparent move to the Big 12, Notre Dame courting, the ACC and other weak conferences like the Big East, and realignment swankiness.  It’s good to be a Big 12 fan this week.

Purple Yeti Roar 17: Getting Ready To Rain Down

Yes, this week I get a little wet, with emotion.  And by wet, I mean sweat.  Sweat for all of the realignment rumblings that involve the Big 12 and teams going _into_ the conference.  I’ll talk about some of the teams that fall in to that latter category as well as some Texas, South Carolina, Notre Dame, Bill Byrne, West Virginia, Aaron Green, and Dan Beebe.

Alrighty it’s another week and I have a shocking revelation.  You won’t believe your eyes when you find out.  I also talk about some ESPN, Kansas State, Big 12, Notre Dame, and Conference USA.  TMZ eat your heart out! Then dot dot dot about it. Continue reading Purple Yeti Roar 16: It’s Me, Really

Purple Yeti Roar 14: Welp Baseball Is Done So Watch More Football

The Royals tanked hard in Kansas City, so why not hang out with me as we get ready for some football?  Sure, it’s all talk and no play but better no play than terrible play.  This week I talk Arkansas, Kansas, Charlie Weiss, Notre Dame, Ireland, Navy, Jessica Dorrell, Bobby Petrino, USC, ESPN, Oregon, Tha tweed, Texas A&M, SEC, West Virginia, Gary Pinkel, and Missouri.

Purple Yeti Roar 13: I Hate To Break It To Ya

Ahahah ho man.  I couldn’t resist that pun for Alabama’s BCS Championship trophy breakage this week.  There were other things going on as well.  Among the other stories that broke (ba doom ching): Kansas and all it’s Domer Glory, the Cy-Hawk Trophy is back to being cool, Barry Sanders (I said Foster HA) comes back from my childhood, Tyler Lockett practices full speed for Kansas State, an Auburn fan gets punched, and Oliver Luck wants it big.  Let’s shuffle through the damage.

Purple Yeti Roar 05: More Like Meow

I barely made it through this week’s roar.  It’s turned into a meow.  I’m fighting a cold and will now go back to my lair and recover.  In the meantime check out my takes on the Mountain West merging with Conference USA, North Dakota State’s fightin’ name issue, and some playoff/expansion menagerie.  Oh it’s quite the trist.  It’s okay to watch, I washed my hands.   Just be sure to get plenty of fluids and rest.

Crib Sheet: The End Is Nigh

Yup, we have a handful of games to go for this bowl season.  It’s been a pretty great run so far.  The weekend saw some great finishes and exciting shootouts.  I’m going to miss college football much like everyone else out there after the last whistle blows.  Until that whistle tweets its last tweet, we got a few more Crib Sheets to pass around as well.  The news wasn’t too quiet as we get to see more coaching changes and draft declarations now.  So let’s get right down to it:
