Conference Champion:  Alabama

SEC Coach of the Year:  Dan Mullen- Look for Dan Mullen to continue his success, he is accustomed to have, at the University of Florida. When he arrived at Mississippi State in ’09 he inherited a below average, under achieving roster. In his nine-year tenure in Starkville, he essentially brought the program back to relevancy. Now, Coach Mullen goes to his dream job with a great amount of young talent on the depth chart. Included in this above average roster are two former five-star quarterbacks (Felipe Franks, Emory Jones). If Dan Mullen can use his magic quarterback touch with either of these guys, like he did with Dak Prescott, Tim Tebow, Alex Smith, and Nick Fitzgerald, the Florida Gators will be in for a much needed bounce back year.

SEC Offensive POY:  Tua Tagovailoa- While the Hawaiian native doesn’t even have the starting job yet, he is arguably the most talented quarterback Nick Saban has ever had; which isn’t saying much but fuck, that’s not the point. The point is, in nine games last year, Tagovailoa threw for 636 yards and 11 touchdowns on 49 completions and added 133 yards and two scores on the ground. Not to mention 3 of the touchdowns were in the national championship to bring the Tide back to win. Yes, he did all this as the backup. God only knows what he’s capable of doing with the starting job this year

SEC Defensive POY:  Devin White- First team all SEC junior linebacker Devin White posted a remarkable 10.2 tackles per game last year. He was the one bright spot in what was otherwise a season of huge disappointments for the tigers. If it wasn’t for Roquan Smith’s historic 2017 season, Devin White could potentially be going for back-to -back Defensive POYs.

SEC Coach on the hot seat:  Ed Orgeron- LSU fans and boosters expect to compete for a national title every year, as they should. They have all the variables it takes to win money, recruiting, and a passionate fan base. With this being said, 9-4 just won’t cut it. If the Tigers have another mediocre season in 2018, it wouldn’t surprise me if the program starts to look in another direction in terms of head coach.

Hottest College Football Girlfriends

College football’s off-season can feel like an eternity at times. The abundance of time and lack of important news leads to shitty headlines and enables non-stories to be relevant. To counter the immensely dull stories the 2018 off-season has provided, I have put together a list of what the people want to see. After hours of extensive Instagram research, I’ve made a top 10 power ranking of the hottest college football girlfriends of the past 5 years.                           10. Jordan  Daigle - Zack Craig (Oklahoma State safety) 9.  Peyton Thomas- Jake Ganus (University of Georgia linebacker)     8.  Jeanne O’Neil – Will Grier (West Virginia University quarterback) 7.  Paige Loren- Shane  Buechele (University of Texas quarterback) (Left) 6.  Ani Sarkisan - Wilton Speight (university of Michigan quarterback   ...

The Baker Mayfield Effect

By Kyle Langston Twitter: @kylelangston49 Monday June 11 th , the date that Lake Travis class of ’21 quarterback Nate Yarnell received his first offer from the University of Houston Cougars. Though isn't it odd that an up and coming program with a promising 2018 season would spend their time looking at a freshman quarterback. Houston comes off of a 7-win season behind potential 2018 defensive player of the year Ed Oliver. To justify this, Yarnell must have out of this world stats from his freshman year, but upon inspection of the 2017 varsity roster he is nowhere to be found. So we see for perhaps the first time ever, a competitive Division 1 football program extending an offer to a freshman quarterback who has never played a snap of varsity football. The reason? Nate attends the same high school that 2018 first overall pick Baker Mayfield once did. The case of Nate Yarnell is not one that stands alone. During Mayfield’s rather brief Heisman acceptance...

Jake Fromm Suffers a Broken Hand

The university of Georgia’s starting quarterback, Jake Fromm, suffered a broken hand following a boating accident on the 4 th of July. Fromm isn’t expected to miss any of the season and still plans on being available to run summer workouts (wearing a splint). Off the field accidents aren’t unfamiliar waters to Fromm as he also made news earlier this summer when he made an unexpected trip to the emergency room to have a fishhook removed from his leg. These freak off the field incidents have some Georgia faithful up in arms about what players do in their free time and quite frankly it isn’t any of their damn business. Crazy accidents like these happen all the time and are simply inevitable; spending time with family on the 4 th of July isn’t a sin. Jake Fromm gives Tim Tebow a run for his money in terms of off the field motives. He is one of the most down to earth kids that has ever came through Athens. I’m honestly surprised he wasn’t off in the Philippines or some other ...
