  • I've got a wild scoreboard graphic from last night's MACtion contest, our weekly 'Bash the CFP committee' fireside chat after last night's latest dump, and some '90s nostalgia to end the day.
  • The Conference Office has and will continue to enforce a zero-tolerance policy for all acts deemed to be unsportsmanlike and contrary to the high standard of good sportsmanship we expect from all individuals associated with the athletics programs within our league." The final tally?
