Scout.com: CFN Five-Year Program Rankings - 21 to 40
Program Analysis ... In 2003 Nebraska was ranked ninth in the rankings and was at a crossroads. It was a superpower in need of an overhaul, and the powers-that-be, more like the powers-that-were, gave it a shot. The Bill Callahan era didn't work, and Nebraska, Nebraska, has won just half of its Big 12 games over the last five years. Even with all the issues and inconsistencies on the field, the off-the-field scores are solid. The fans will always sell out the place, while the APR score, as expected, is nice and high. But Husker fans want wins, championships, and runs for BCS titles. The era of Big Red dominance might have passed, but Bo Pelini appears to have the team on the verge of being a regular in the Big 12 title chase again.

He includes Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma State among the 22 teams in that group.

There's a 50 percent chance you won't utterly despise Gameday's new theme song - Dr. Saturday - NCAAF - Yahoo! Sports
The song will reek and drive you slightly more insane with rage each time the first chords chime out of your speakers, which will be 50 billion times per season. I have haven't heard the song, and still I'm absolutely certain there is zero percent chance that anyone anywhere will find it tolerable over any period of time.

Jordan Congdon named USC's starting kicker
He left Bill Callahan and Nebraska behind, and now he's USC's starting kicker. I wouldn't trade Alex Henery (or Adi Kunailc) for him, but you have to admit, that's not a bad career track.
