Because one intimidating coaching figure deserves another, Ohio State head man Urban Meyer decided to go as legendary Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka for Halloween. His wife Shelley tweeted out a photo tonight – it’s actually hard to even tell that it’s Meyer.

Check it out:

Video: Wisconsin Coach Gary Andersen Dressed Up Like One Of His Players For Halloween

Matt Lombardi

Wisconsin coach Gary Andersen chose to go an interesting route when choosing a Halloween costume this year. Andersen dressed up as one of his own players – presumably Beau Allen, given the hair – and participated in a blocking drill with him in front of the team. The team absolutely loved it.

While he got the best of Allen the first time around, the senior nose guard actually tried the second time and, well, it wasn’t really much of a contest. Check it out:

Something tells me he won’t be suiting up against Iowa this Saturday. Let’s hope he keeps the mullet though.

Matt Lombardi

Former USC head coach Lane Kiffin doesn’t currently have a job, so it’s entirely possible that he’s out tonight with his kids trick-or-treating. It’d be pretty funny if he ran into himself in the process.

One USC fan took a photo of himself dressed as “unemployed Lane Kiffin” – visor and all.

Kiffin, of course, was unceremoniously fired in September after over three seasons with the team. It looks like fans are still happy with the program’s decision.

Kevin Durant was only a Texas Longhorn for a single year, but he still loves to represent his former program and takes pride in all of the school’s athletics teams. He also likes to give back to the school — he recently hooked up the basketball team with his new KD VI Galaxy shoes by Nike:

Getting new KD’s for free is a pretty nice perk — those Galaxies are hot.

Matt Lombardi

While most of us have finally calmed down about the whole Manti Te’o fake girlfriend fiasco, it’s important to note that this is the first Halloween since the bizarre events this past January. As such, a few party-goers have decided to dress up as the former Irish linebacker – and his fake/dead/sorta-real girlfriend Lennay Kekua. Have a look:

What do we think here – still relevant or overplayed?

Kentucky Tops First College Basketball AP Poll

Matt Lombardi

Ashley is probably happy.

The Kentucky Wildcats, despite not reaching the NCAA Tournament in 2013, will be ranked No. 1 in the preseason AP Poll for 2014. That’s what happens when you land a recruiting class complete with five of the top ten players in the country.

The past two years have been a roller coaster ride for UK fans. In 2011, the Wildcats won the NCAA title in putting together one of the most dominant seasons in recent memory. But last year, despite another impressive recruiting class, Kentucky struggled most of the season and bowed out in the first round of the NIT against Robert Morris.

Michigan State, Louisville (last year’s champ), Duke and Kansas round out the top five. Here’s the entire list, which was just released:

1. Kentucky

2. Michigan State

3. Louisville

4. Duke

5. Kansas

6. Arizona

7. Michigan

T-8. Syracuse

T-8. Oklahoma State

10. Florida

11. Ohio State

12. North Carolina

13. Memphis

14. VCU

15. Gonzaga

16. Wichita State

17. Marquette

18. Connecticut

19. Oregon

20. Wisconsin

21. Notre Dame

22. UCLA

23. New Mexico

24. Virginia

25. Baylor

Video: Have Wisconsin RBs James White And Melvin Gordon Started A New Dance Craze?

Tyler Moorehead

Wisconsin running backs James White and Melvin Gordon form a pretty dynamic duo, both on and off the field. A few days ago we showed you them dressed up as Power Rangers while visiting kids with the Badgers Childhood Cancer Network — now it’s time to share some more of their good work.

This time, the pair is spreading cheer with their dance moves — their touchdown celebration dance moves. Wisconsin athletics has put together a humorous video about the “new dance craze” that is taking the world by storm:

Yes, Louisville forward Kevin Ware is back on the court just seven months after breaking his leg this past March. But no, that doesn’t make it okay to make light of his injury for Halloween. One college basketball “fan” is dressing up in a Ware jersey with a fake wound, complete with the bone sticking out. ESPN’s Darren Rovell tweeted it out earlier today, but it was taken down soon after. One of his followers was able to screenshot it, however:

Needless to say, this isn’t cool. This guy better hope he never runs into Ware himself on the street – or any Louisville fans either, for that matter.

Video: Cam McDaniel Claims He Watched ‘Zoolander’ The Night Before His Famous “Modeling” Photo Went Viral

Matt Lombardi

Last week, Fighting Irish running back Cam McDaniel cemented himself into Internet lore when the below photo, taken during Notre Dame’s game against USC, went viral. As you can see, McDaniel lost his helmet mid-play, yet still somehow looked like he was posing for GQ.

Fans immediately made the connection to the movie Zoolander – because, well, anytime anyone mentions anything to do with male modeling, that’s what comes to mind. Today, we learned that in a strange coincidence, McDaniel was actually watching the movie the night before the picture went viral. Rachel Turlep took video of McDaniel’s teammate, Troy Niklas, asking him about the look. He also compared it to “Blue Steel.”

Pretty funny stuff. Maybe he’ll make a cameo in ‘Zoolander 2′. You never know…

Butch Jones Embraces Challenge: Tennessee’s Schedule “Hardest In The History Of College Football”

Tyler Moorehead

All things considered, Tennessee is having a pretty solid season in 2013. It’s the first year of the Butch Jones era, and the Volunteers entered the season on a three-year streak of sub-.500 records. Tennessee is currently 4-4 (and sports a win over a South Carolina team that was No. 11 at the time), which isn’t terrible when you consider the absolutely brutal schedule the team has played.

In fact, Jones talked this evening a bit about how he embraces the challenge of a tough schedule, but he thinks that his team may be facing one of the hardest of all time:

Schedule via ESPN.com

While the Vols have faced a couple of cupcakes, Butch has a point — Tennessee has also played a bunch of really, really difficult games: It’s good to see that Jones and his team aren’t backing down to the schedule — many others would whine and complain that a slate that loaded is unfair and far too much for any team to handle. Tennessee fans have to be pleased with the progress that the Vols are showing, and should be really excited about the future under Butch Jones — it’s clear he has embraced the challenge in front of him.

LeSean McCoy Jokes About Terrelle Pryor: “I Tried To Recruit Him To Pitt, But We Couldn’t Afford Him”

Tyler Moorehead

This weekend, the Philadelphia Eagles travel to Oakland to take on the Raiders. Besides pitting two of the most ferocious fan bases in sports against each other, the game will also feature two famous Pennsylvania high school stars. Both LeSean McCoy and Terrelle Pryor are PA kids (their high schools are a little less than three hours apart), and today McCoy was asked if the two ever knew each other from way back. His response was gold:

Of course, Pryor was at Ohio State during the infamous tattoo scandal — he himself said he “was kicked out of school” because of it. McCoy was just giving Pryor a hard time about OSU’s recent reputation and reiterated that it was a joke.

Later, the media told Pryor of McCoy’s comment, but he just brushed it off:

It looks like Pryor is still having a hard time escaping that Ohio State past.

Photos: Kentucky’s New Basketball Warmups Have Patch Honoring 8 Title Teams

Tyler Moorehead

Kentucky basketball fans are not shy, and they are certainly not afraid to tell you about their school’s eight national championships. In fact, the team will sport new warmups for 2013 that will remind everyone of all eight of those championships with a pretty obvious patch on the sleeve:

If you’ve got it, flaunt it, I guess.

Tyler Moorehead

The California Golden Bears will be rocking some really fresh jerseys on the hardwood this upcoming season. Cal is a Nike school, but isn’t opting for the standard Nike Hyper Elite series jerseys like many other programs — the Bears have their own style with a really cool spotted side pattern:

In case you haven’t seen the yellow Cal jerseys that were released last week, here they are:

And the blue jerseys released three weeks ago:

It’s a very cool set of jerseys all around — great work by Nike.

Tyler Moorehead

When it comes to college sports clothing, we’ve seen some pretty bizarre mistakes made by manufacturers. In the past, we’ve shown you some hats with serious mixed allegiances — the West Virginia Cavaliers hat and Clemson-South Carolina combination hat come to mind as being particularly awful. Today, another bad mix-up popped up:

Sometimes, “close” just doesn’t cut it. Who dislikes this more — Kentucky fans, or Kansas ones?

Halloween costumes are fun — dressing up as something scary, funny, or just plain cool can be a great time. However, sometimes people can take things a bit too far.

Today, Duke’s star freshman Jabari Parker tweeted out a photo of an awful Halloween costume: a pair of young men dressed as Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman . The costume very much distressed Parker:

Halloween costumes like this are not cool — keep it classy guys.

Video: South Carolina Student Remakes ‘Wrecking Ball’ Gamecocks-Style To Show Support

Tyler Moorehead

South Carolina student Kate Bickley believes that she is the best Gamecocks fan out there. She decided to back up the claim by making a video of her own South Carolina-themed version of Miley Cyrus’ ‘Wrecking Ball’ for her sorority’s homecoming (all in good fun, of course):

Stay in school, Kate — but seriously, props for doing this because it is totally hilarious.

UCLA O-Coordinator Says His Mom And Dog “Are The Only Two People That Like Me Right Now”

Tyler Moorehead

UCLA has an extremely talented football team in 2013, but right now, the Bruins have hit a rough patch. UCLA climbed as high as ninth in AP Poll to start the season, but has now suffered back-to-back to losses to very good Stanford and Oregon teams. The major issue in the two losses was the offense — the Bruins only scored 24 points in the two games combined.

Offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone realizes he needs to get things back on track quickly — he also realizes that he probably isn’t the most popular guy right now. Today he had a pretty funny quote regarding his approval rating:

I think that is maybe a bit harsh, but Mazzone is right in realizing that he needs to get the offense clicking. The Bruins look to rebound and get back on the right path against Colorado on Saturday.

Nick Saban: “I’ve Never Considered Joining Twitter, Nor Do I Understand Why Anyone Would” sexandsecretss.blogspot.com

Nick Saban: “I’ve Never Considered Joining Twitter, Nor Do I Understand Why Anyone Would”

Matt Lombardi

You probably won’t be shocked to hear this, but Alabama coach Nick Saban has no interest in joining Twitter. When asked today at his weekly press conference about whether he’d ever join the social media platform, he dropped a fairly amusing quote on the audience:

Saban also went on to say that there is no official policy regarding his players using Twitter, but that they’re all made aware of what they can/can’t tweet. He said the program does its best to monitor what the players are putting out there as well.

Some coaches feel that connecting with their players on social media and staying current is important. Clearly Saban doesn’t – and clearly it hasn’t affected his program’s success. Still, who wouldn’t love to see a #SabanSelfie before game day?

Video: ESPN Releases ‘Game Of The Week’ Promo For Florida State-Miami

Tyler Moorehead

Both Miami and Florida State are vying for a spot in the BCS National Championship Game, and this Saturday, the two teams will collide in Tallahassee. Two weeks ago, Famous Jameis and the ‘Noles flexed their muscles against a strong Clemson team, and look to prove to Miami that this game will be no different. The Hurricanes, on the other hand, finally have a shot to prove that they belong in the discussion with the nation’s elite, led by running back Duke Johnson.

The matchup, of course, has been dubbed ESPN’s ‘Game of the Week’ — here’s the promo for it that was just released:

You can tune in at 8:00 EST on Saturday night on ABC.

Video: Everett Golson Owns Up To Cheating At Notre Dame In Interview With SI’s Andy Staples

Tyler Moorehead

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from ex-Notre Dame quarterback Everett Golson, but today he finally made a public reappearance. In a feature with Sports Illustrated‘s Andy Staples, Golson opened up about the academic infraction that got him kicked out of Notre Dame for the fall, and then he talked about his desire to return to school and how he never considered going JUCO or switching to another university.

The most notable portion of the interview was the discussion between Golson and Staples on the “poor academic judgment” that Golson previously said he displayed — the quarterback decided to elaborate a bit:

“Basically I had poor judgment on a test, it wasn’t due to poor grades on anything.”

“Did you cheat on a test?”

“Yeah, it was something like that [...] test situation.”

Here’s video:

Golson is just a few months away from making his academic return to Notre Dame in January — he is very eager to put the past behind him and move on from his mistakes.

South Carolina’s Kicker Offers Explanation For Andrew Baggett’s Ill-Timed Miss

Matt Lombardi

By now, you’ve undoubtedly seen the final play of the Missouri vs. South Carolina double-overtime thriller from this past Saturday night. Andrew Baggett, the Tigers’ sophomore kicker, missed a 24-yard field goal from the left hash, sending the Gamecocks and their fans into euphoria. While Baggett has received his fair share of criticism for the gaffe, many have pointed out that his holder failed to make sure the laces were out before the kick. South Carolina’s kicker, Elliott Fry, seems to agree.

It’s nice to see one college kicker – especially the one on the other side of the result – standing upon for another. As Fry mentions, it wasn’t long ago that he was criticized for a similar miss.

Dabo Swinney Says He’ll “Be Surprised” If Sammy Watkins Doesn’t Bolt For The NFL This Year

Matt Lombardi

Clemson junior wide receiver Sammy Watkins has been a special player for the Tigers for the three years he’s been on campus. His coach, Dabo Swinney, doesn’t seem to think Watkins will be signing up for a fourth go, however. Swinney told reporters today at his weekly press conference that he’ll “be surprised” if Watkins doesn’t move onto the pros after this season. Swinney also believe that the standout wide receiver should be a top-10 pick in the NFL draft.

Watkins has put up some impressive numbers in his collegiate career – during his freshman season, he caught 82 balls for 1,219 yards. He also leads the Tigers this season with 58 receptions and 813 receiving yards. He certainly has the potential to be a top-10 pick, as Swinney believes, but he’s projected more in the 15-20 range by most scouts. We’ll find out soon enough if Swinney’s projection is correct.

This past summer, Notre Dame’s top receiver made headlines by swimming with sharks. But TJ Jones, now a captain for the Fighting Irish, wasn’t just going for a wild dip on vacation; he’s very much interested in a professional career as a marine diver. He spent part of the summer down in Florida seeing what it’s like working at an aquarium, and was able to take a number of dives into the shark tank .

Of course, the staff at SeaWorld (the place where Jones dreams of someday working) is now supporting TJ and the Fighting Irish — today, SeaWorld sent Notre Dame and TJ a video of divers holding “Go TJ!” and “Go Irish” signs under water:

Jones is definitely one of the most unique wide receivers in college football, and it’s pretty cool that he has SeaWorld on his side. It seems like his dream job could become a reality very soon if pro football doesn’t work out — if it does, that dream may just have to wait a bit longer.
