The holiday bowl plans to get aggressive when bowl certifications are up for renewal in 2014. The problem is, they don’t know how they plan to be aggressive. Um, good luck with that.

Get your #MACTION shirt over at no2minutewarning.com

One of the coolest t-shirt ideas in a while, Kevin is selling #MACTION shirts over at no2minutewarning.com. They come in your favorite teams colors or you can customize it in any color design you want.

The hot topic of the day was how relegation would work in the NCAA with football. Not sure it fits the American sports culture, but here is the post by Bill Connelly (@SBN_BillC).

SMU has fired their athletic director, Steve Orsini, immediately and right now no one knows why.

Remember the Alabama fan who thought it would be funny to stick his junk in the face of a passed out LSU fan in New Orleans, then post the video on youtube? Well, now he is facing felony charges for sexual battery.

Clemson running back Mike Bellamy has been ruled academically ineligible.

Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione was very open in this interview about his views on a playoff and how to preserve the regular season.

Kameel Jackson may be suspended from the Oklahoma team, but he is not going to transfer.

A column by George Schroeder on the problems Rich Rodriguez is going to face at Arizona.

Robert Steeples has decided that he will play at Memphis after leaving Missouri last month.

The Notre Dame football team appears to have a drinking problem as wide receiver DeVaris Daniels was cited for consumption of alcohol as a minor.

Good news for Pitt as it appears that Ray Graham will be ready for fall camp. The injury happened right in front of me and it was non-contact and nasty looking. I’m happy to see Graham be on a fast recovery schedule.

Ray Graham lines up for what would be his final play in 2011

Ray Graham is tackled after falling down injured. You can see every player for both teams looking at him due to Graham immediately screaming in pain

USC linebacker Simione Vehikite has been ordered to spend a year in jail.

Michigan is going to get new uniforms again for 2012. I’ll reserve judgement till some pictures leak.

Arkansas is also getting new uniforms with gradient numbers. People always have to mess with good things and make them ugly.

New Michigan football t-shirt

Michigan unveiled a new football t-shirt for sale today that has a list of the program’s accomplishments heading into its 133rd season. Kind of reads like an old No Fear t-shirt from back in the day.

Former Purdue running back Reggie Pegram is headed to North Texas and may be eligible this season.

Pete Sonski (@29Sonski) provided this link with a short video of the USF athletic director Doug Woolard stating that an on-campus football stadium is in the long-term plans for the school.

Former Nebraska players Eric Crouch and Tommy Frazier handled their College Football Hall of Fame snubs with class. Makes he hope even more that Frazier finally gets in next year.

Aaron Torres (@Aaron_Torres) argues that USC’s athletic director Pat Haden is the best in the business.

While on the subject of USC, Heisman Pundit Chris Huston (@HeismanPundit) has an interesting take on how the sanctions actually helped USC become a top program again.

According to @SUonRivals, wide receiver Quinta Funderburk will transfer from Arkansas to Syracuse.

TCU has sold of of season football tickets for the first time in years. Just two years ago, they only sold 19,143 season tickets, than 22,500 last year and finally 30,000 this year. Amazing what a renovated stadium and a move to the Big XII has been worth to them already.

Notre Dame linebacker Carlo Calabrese couldn’t keep his mouth shut while Tommy Rees was being arrested a few weeks ago. Now he has been charged with intimidation of a police officer.

UCLA had to stop practice yesterday due to a fight.

Marshall running back Martin Ward may have had another legal run-in before the brawl with police a few days ago.

Baylor defensive end Tevin Elliott has been suspended for a violation of team rules.

Conference expansion and movement continues to dominate. Here is a good example of a vague statement by Texas State athletic director Dr. Larry Teis and their future plans.

Hey Georgia, it's proceed

Probably a kettle/pot thing here with they way I spell, but hey it’s all in good fun.

The Knight commission would like Bowl payouts to be linked to graduation rate. Good luck with that, and that’s from someone who would love it.

John Walters (@jdubs88) picked up on a great quote from PAC12 commissioner Larry Scott and gives us this story.

Michigan safety Josh Furman was found not guilty of assault and battery and domestic violence charges. (via @chengelis)

@BTNDienhart reports that Iowa Board of Regents has approved plans for the second and final phase of the football facilities plan.

The NCAA has pushed back the date on a new, more stringent, academic standards so they would not go into effect until 2016. I’m sure they will get changed four more times before then anyways so I don’t see the point, but whatever keeps people employed.

Andy Staples is celebrating the new college football playoff. I imagine with some burnt ends and sweet tea.

Remember that Colorado State trio of players who beat the snot out of some other folks, well they have been formally charged with some fairly minor stuff.

South Carolina got off easy from the NCAA from these allegations by basically having the NCAA accept their self-imposed penalties and just adding a few more scholarship reductions.

Sean Adams (@thatsean) wrote this great column for ESPN on the Texas/Texas A&M rivalry ending.
