Hawaii QB Laid Out By USC Linebacker

Hawaii quarterback Bryant Moniz was ready to have the game of his life in the Warriors’ home-opener against the sanctioned #14 USC. Moniz was instrumental in keeping his underdog squad in the game until late in the 3rd quarter when Trojan linebacker Michael Morgan knocked the bejesus out of him.

Moniz layed on the ground for several minutes following the hit, which appeared to be a cheap shot to the head of the Hawaii qb after checking out the replay. Moniz did not return for the remainder of the game and neither did his squad as they got served with a cherry on top.

For what it’s worth Morgan wasn’t flagged on the play but if this was the NFL, he could have expected a solid fine to be handed down.

DAMN!: Iowa O-Lineman Gets Binged By Truck

Anytime you’re on a moped and you try to take on a truck coming full speed from the other direction, the situation isn’t going to end pretty.

Kudos to Iowa offensive lineman Josh Koeppel for providing one of the greatest 4 second videos of all times, showing the hefty Hawkeye getting what should have been a one-hitter quitter.

By just watching the video it appears that Koeppel is surely dead or at least really unhappy, because he got hit so hard that one of his shoes flew like 30 feet in the air. Luckily, Koeppel didn’t even suffer any major injuries, walking away with some minor cuts and bruises.

LOL: ‘Bama WR Rob Ezell Impersonates Nick Saban

Impersonating coaches is a past-time enjoyed by many, but it’s seldom that a dude has enough heart to imitate the HCIC (Head Coach In Charge) with cameras rolling. As apart of ESPN’s All-Access with the Alabama football squad, senior wide receiver Rob Ezell put on a show for some of his teammates following practice, doing a spot-on impersonation of Nick Saban.

Although Saban is aware that some of the towns on the team like Ezell, enjoy poking fun at him from time to time, he was also quick to point out that most of his players are scared to do the impersonation when he’s actually around. It’s better to be feared than loved.

Arkansas Radio Personality Fired For Gators Cap

In Arkansas there are three things you don’t mess with: A man’s female cousin, the produce at the Super Wal-Mart and Arkansas Razorback football. In an astounding turn of events, KAKS (Hogsportsradio)  personality Renee Gork announced she had been fired on her Twitter.

The reason? She wore a Florida Gators cap to Arkansas head coach Bobby Petrino’s press conference. Petrino refused to answer questions as long as she wore the cap, and to Gork’s defense she claims she only grabbed that particular cap because it was raining  outside.

We would give it up to Petrino for showing team spirit, but after he bounced on the Falcons mid-season a few years ago it’s obvious his loyalty is only to the green.

Decent: UCLA Football Hitting Drill Feat. Daft Punk

If you’ve ever played sports then you know that for the most part practice sucks. Whilst the mainstream media was quick to deride Allen Iverson for his legendary “practice” tirade, the Answer was more or less accurate in his assessment.

But there are times when practice can actually be enjoyable, like the first day of UCLA’s football practice with pads Friday.Rick Neuheisel decided let the offense and the defense go one-on-one to see who’s really been hitting the weights and who’s been perpetrating.

The 2 highlights of the video are the players’ reactions each time someone from their side gets the win and the Daft Punk track booming while the competition is cracking. Classy selection.

Heisman Winner Mark Ingram Tries To Be Like Tiger

It appears that Alabama running Mark Ingram has a little Tiger Woods in his veins. Last year’s Heisman winner appeared in this video to promote his article in the latest issue of ESPN The Magazine. This seems like a violation as this could be construed as an advertisement for ESPN, but since they aren’t breaking any bread with Ingram, they get to keep it for themselves.

Apparently Ingram was an accomplished golfer during his younger days, and after seeing him do a fairly solid imitation of Tiger Woods’ legendary juggling golf balls trick, it sounds believable. Not to mention that Ingram mashed around the golf course in a pair of Jordan brand sandals and black socks…Now that’s pimpin!

Maurice Clarett Returns To Ohio State

(Guess that thing about the SI Cover jinx is pretty legit.)

Maurice Clarett is a maligned yet significant figure in NCAA and NFL history.  The 2005 third-round pick of the Broncos, starred as a freshman at Ohio State and then sued the NFL to gain early entry into the league. Clarett lost his case and failed miserably in his only opportunity to make the team.  He was later imprisoned on robbery and gun charges, and spent 3 years of his life behind bars.

Now 26, Clarett will never play football again but he is a star player in the game of life. Clarett has re-enrolled at The Ohio State University, and is working on his degree. Kudos to a  young man that became notorious for “getting his goose on” (drinking large quantities of grey goose vodka) during his playing days.

Now Clarett is trying get his graduation on, hopefully he has a few girls from back in the day still lingering around campus ready to provide quality knowledge. Clarett might be able to give them some brain in return, but he’d probably just like to be on the receiving end.

Salty Swordfishes: Titans Sue Lane Kiffin & USC

The state of Tennessee has officially lost it. Monday the Titans filed a lawsuit against Lane Kiffin for allegedly stealing away one of their coaches.  The lawsuit accuses USC and head ball coach Lane Kiffin, of “maliciously” intending to induce RB coach Kennedy Pola to breach his contract.

Didn’t Titans head coach Jeff Fisher play football at USC?

This is a bush league (get it?) move by the Titans’ organization, and obviously there are still some open wounds in Knoxville as well as Nashville (or Cashville like Young Buck say). This lawsuit has nothing to do with the Titan’s losing a RB coach, and all to do with the state of Tennessee’s disdain for Kiffin, and the way he left town.

I am no USC fan, but I am not rolling with this lawsuit. Tennessee, stop drink that orange-flavored haterade.
