Bud Wilkinson Conference features plenty of heated rivalries - ESPN
We can't even get away from Arkansas when trying to vote them out of college football. Yeah. That conference would be absolutely nuts. LSU, Oklahoma, and Texas in the same conference. Yikes.

USA Today Coaches' Poll Ranks Rebs Tenth; Behind LSU and Bama - USA Today
As GOJC said, "I never understood the love for Les Miles. He's maybe the seventh best coach in the SEC." I'm not sure that there are SIX better coaches than he is in the conference, but there are at least four.

(Super Bowl XLIV Champion?) Patriots Deal for Derrick Burgess -- NFL FanHouse
Are we still allowed to hate a team that features Burgess AND The Firm? I will forever despise the Patriots, due to my allegiance to the Colts, but it just got a little harder for some Ole Miss fans.

We liked you so much after you bashed Paul Finebaum. Why couldn't you just keep being a reasonable journalist?

Tig Barksdale arrested on DUI charges in Batesville
Posted 8/7/2009 9:36 AM CDT on clarionledger.com
OXFORD — Batesville police have confirmed that UM football signee Darius “Tig” Barksdale was arrested and charged with DUI and driving without a license in the early morning hours on Thursday. Here’s the short story from Deputy Chief of Police Donald W. Province…

Basically, a woman reported her car stolen and police found a subject driving the car about an hour later. It was Barksdale. He was pulled over, smelled of alcohol, was given a field sobriety test, failed, and was arrested and charged with DUI and driving without a license. The woman, who apparently was an acquaintance, declined to press charges. Barksdale posted bond and is now free.

So even if Barksdale is cleared by the NCAA to play academically, it appears the signee will be in some trouble when he arrives on campus.

Yeah, we kinda wanted to steer clear of that one.

Our source says he’d be shocked if he saw Tig ever wearing an Ole Miss jersey.

Rebels in the Boston Globe

The sports section of the Globe this morning featured a front-page article on the Burgess acquisition. Then on page 3, there’s a major article about the best linebacker on the team, but the accompanying picture shows BJGE burning him for a TD in practice.

Who the hell is Kerry Meier?

And Brian Cushing? Give me a break. Earlier in the same article he mentions a player who made him look like a rec league 4th grader.

Another whiff, for Ole Dennis.
