Article on ESPN about the godfather of modern college football:

I grew up in Mt. Pleasant, IA where the article says he refined his offense at Iowa Wesleyan College. His son was in my class and was a good friend. We'd go to practices a lot and lift in the college's weight room. Those games were a lot of fun to watch.

Florida State has suspended quarterback Jameis Winston for the entire game Saturday night against No. 22 Clemson, the school announced late Friday.

Winston, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner for the top-ranked Seminoles, originally had been suspended for just the first half against the visiting Tigers after a profane and sexually explicit outburst in the student union on campus earlier this week.

But Florida State decided to extend his suspension to the entire game because Winston was not entirely truthful or forthcoming regarding Tuesday's incident, a source told ESPN.

"Based upon the results of our continuing investigation of Tuesday's incident involving Jameis Winston, we have decided to not play him for the entire game against Clemson on Saturday night," interim Florida State president Garnett S. Stokes and athletic director Stan Wilcox said in a joint statement Friday night.

Mississippi St. is stomping LSU, both figuratively and literally.

holy [expletive] thats terrible. please tell me he was flagged

also, can someone politely rephrase what famous jameis said that got him in trouble?

[JL21]

Believe it or not, there was no penalty. I assume because the refs didn't see it.

Here's the full info on the Winston story, at least what initially happened.

Now seems like as good a time as any to post this description of Bret Bielema's offensive style from Spencer Hall:

Arkansas' gameplan against Texas Tech was the same as every other gameplan Bret Bielema has ever drawn up: run the dutch oven offense and dare you to breathe. The first move is controlling the clock by pulling the sheets over the opponent's head with the run game. The second move is letting loose with the horrible fumes of a fully weaponized digestive system of an offense, chewing up yardage and processing it through the seven stomachs of the run game.

The resulting heat and stench has killed better teams than Texas Tech, whose undersized defense could not get off the field against the mammoth Razorbacks offensive line, allowed 438 yards rushing, and let Arkansas go 8-for-12 on third down opportunities.

This is not saying that the Arkansas offense is bad or dumb. Far from it. We're saying that the run game is the worst and most effective possible way to force an opponent to smell the kielbasa-and-peppers sub you ate last night. I'm also saying that Bielema is the kind of dude who has totally done this to his roomates and brothers, likely with insane power.

It should also be stated that Texas Tech remains light-in-the-booty up front, so this was a bad matchup all along for the Red Raiders. Arkansas' true value won't be established until it resumes working through its SEC West schedule. Still, watching a team find the hammer, swing said hammer, and then refuse to stop using that hammer until everything in front of it is reduced to shards? Great entertainment in the Hulk-ingest way possible, and deeply encouraging for Arkansas fans, who could probably hear Bielema holding Kliff Kingsbury's head under the sheets and muttering, "I ate at Chipotle last night. Sorry about that, handsome boy."
