Chip Kelly Flip Flops to the Philadelphia Eagles
Chip Kelly is the new head coach of the Eagles. Wait, no, he's turned it down, and is staying at Oregon. Wait, no, he's had a sudden change of heart and will again be the head coach of the Eagles. He's Schrödinger's coach, both taking and turning down the Eagles job, and we won't know until the first game of the season, when the waveform collapses, who will actually be patrolling the sideline of Philadelphia in 2013.

SEC Bowl Game Previews and Predictions
Well, the SEC has made yet another BCS Championship game, much to the dismay of everyone else outside of the Southeast. I had to laugh when Bama was knocked off by Texas A&M and all the pundits were spouting off like they had been liberated from the Evil Empire, only a week later were they back in the Gulag. I just did a Nelson from the Simpson HA-HA!!!

Hokies and Hurricanes Square Off For Coastal Supremacy
The Virginia Tech Hokies and Miami Hurricanes haven't exactly had years that are on a pace to go down in the history books. Both teams are just 4-4, and there is a realistic possibility that the loser of this game might not even make its way to bowl eligibility. However, in the ACC Coastal Division, matters are wide open, and both teams know that they control their own destiny to reach the ACC Championship Game and quite possibly the BCS. These two will meet on Thursday night, where the visiting Hokies are 2-point favorites on the college football odds.

Breaking Down College Football's New Conference Alignment
The past few years there has been a ton of movement in college football in terms of conference hopping. I, for one am sick of it, so hopefully all that nonsense is over.

This is also a way for conferences to earn more money.
