It's stunning, yet believable, that James Franklin is no longer Penn State's coach.

What comes next for the Nittany Lions? Make Cignetti and Rhule say no. www.si.com/college-foot...

The Nittany Lions will likely look within the Big Ten first at Matt Rhule and Curt Cignetti, but there are plenty of options for a big swing.

That Karty 26 yard field goal doink'd back onto the field to cover about 17 yards from the upright to the ground. Incredible exit velocity.

Pity every head coach hired over the next decade for thinking they can have a slow multiyear rebuild after what Curt Cignetti has done at IU.

Wowzers. Texas punt return for a touchdown and the Horns have some breathing room.

Texas ran 26 plays and got 140 yards in that third quarter. Oklahoma ran four plays.

14 play, 75 yard drive to open the second half for Texas. Might be the best the OL has looked, including buying Arch time to find Moore in the back of the end zone.

Say what you want about Bobby Petrino, and there is plenty to say, but the Hogs look like they are up for the fight today at Neyland. 17-10 with 4:36 in 2Q.

What an awful sequence for OU. Mismanage the clock and then Mateer just throws it up for an interception. We'll go to half with a 6-3 Sooners lead.

Death, taxes and Sark red zone struggles.

Texas is averaging 21.7 yards to go on third downs. That's suboptimal.

I don’t want to say this game is long but I’ve written a story, attended a press conference and made it back to my hotel from Denton all in extra innings tonight.
