((HT: ESPN/Saturday Down South))
We all know about the Fat Guy Touchdown (capitalization intentional) in the Cotton Bowl, but Gary Pinkel had a Fat Guy monent of their own on a fake punt during their win over Minnesota in the Citrus Bowl
Evidence below
The HQ gives Pinkel credit for calling for a fake ON HIS OWN 17-YARD LINE with Harold Brantley for a gain of 19...

Rivalry Week Primer: Arkansas With Hype Video for Missouri Game
((ht: arkansas razorbacks))
It's not exactly a classic "rivalry", but it's a pretty big SEC game. Arkansas, winner of three straight SEC games squares off with Missouri.
For the Razorbacks, a bowl berth could be on the line, for the Tigers, win and they clinch the SEC East title and a shot at playing in the SEC Title game next week.
The Razorbacks appear to be ready as evidenced by this killer hype video. It's very well done, we like the colorization and graphics, well done Arkansas video team...

Surprise: Will Muschamp Still Coaching at Florida for Now
It wasn't exactly a ringing vote of confidence, but it wasn't "We've decided to head in another direction" either.University of Florida Athletic Director Jeremy Foley issued a statement Monday afternoon saying that among other things; "At the beginning of the season, we said we would evaluate the season as it played out. We will continue to do so. Our sole focus right now is supporting our coaching staff and players as they prepare for Georgia".
So, Gator fan, it appears that you will have Coach Will Muschamp around a little longer. With Florida off this week, many have speculated a move would be made now instead of waiting.
Particularly after the embarrassing 42-13 Homecoming loss this past Saturday to Missouri when the Gators managed to lose after giving up just slightly more than 100-yards of offense to the Tigers.
Nothing has gone right for Muschamp or the Gators, though they are still 3-3 on the season. Giving up touchdowns on punt returns, kick returns, interception returns and fumble returns in one game will generally anger the masses.
Which is exactly what happened in that game and led the crowd to start chanting for Coach Boom to be fired. All well and good, though the cast of characters that could replace may not excite the folks in Gainesville either.
Just saying'...

There's a Difference Between "Coach Boom!" And "Coach, Boom!"
((HT: Saturday Down South))
Missouri is making some kind of a point tonight in Gainesville in their blowout of the Gators on Homecoming!
The HQ doesn't quite know what it is- whether they REALLY need help with their offense as they go forward or Florida is just GAWD AWFUL!
It came to this, however, when a defensive touchdown sent people flooding out into the streets...
According to some of OSG's sources, Muschamp is going to be fired on Monday morning. Some folks might like to see Athletics Director Jeremy Foley to go after Muschamp as well.
But the other issue is Mizzou's offense...
Florida picked up 200 yards of offense in the third and fourth quarter when the game was out of hand, but the Tigers only had 119 yards of TOTAL offense- relying on a pick 6, a kickoff return, a punt return, a fumble recovery, a rushing score and 2 field goals...
So there's that...

How Does This Happen? Indiana Beats Mizzou in Mizzou
No, really, this happened today. We aren't making it up to make the Little 10 and Jim Delany happy.
Somehow, the lowly Indiana Hoosiers pulled off the first Big 10 upset...or victory of significance this season.
The Hoosiers disposed of a stunned group of Missouri Tigers 31-27 Saturday afternoon.
Tevin Coleman ran for 132 yards and a touchdown, but aside from that, nobody did anythings significant in this game to turn it one way or the other.
There was only 1 turnover and Missouri had the ball for over 33 minutes, yet the 18th-ranked Tigers still lost.
The Hoosiers were coming off a disheartening loss to Bowling Green, yet they had enough to beat the defending SEC East Champs. Setting off tons of head shaking amongst the SEC acolytes who cannot conceive of a Big 10 team beating them.
Yet it happened...
--shrugging shoulders-- Maybe this will be the game that turns the corner for the Little 10, Michigan was again getting beat, search parties are still looking for Ohio State. Only Michigan State left one of the so-called "Power 5" conference teams with any hope of getting to the College Football playoff.
Here's the game-winning TD by D'Angelo Roberts with :22 left in the game.

Mizzou DE Sam Says He Is Gay, Patrick Crayton Not A Fan...
((HT: ESPN))
Michael Sam could be drafted this year for a team that needs some help up front...
Teammates have known since the beginning of the regular season that he is gay, but he is now telling Chris Connelly the same and he is now the first openly gay pro prospect...
Here's a piece of his interview...
Sam led the SEC with 11-and-a-half sacks, and 19 tackles for loss. Most NFL draft projections see him as a Day Two selection, with some saying Sam could go as high as the third round. He may have to change from DE to a linebacker because of his college size...
Here's instant analysis
It will be interesting to see if Sam can:
A) Stick to a roster and,
B) Not be subjected to the stereotypical locker room culture that the HQ knows exists- on every level...
Will we all be adults...???
What the HQ feels and what may actually happen are two different things...
UPDATE: The Cowboys Patrick Crayton is the first over the bar...
In a series of Tweets, the receiver showed his true colors- until he says his account was hacked or the comments get removed...
Missouri DE Michael Sam, a projected mid-round pick, said today he's gay. Story now on ESPN2." To urself!!!

Missouri DE Michael Sam, a projected mid-round pick, said today he's gay. Story now on ESPN2." Oh wow!!! There goes the NFL!
He proceeded to get in a Twitter battle with Johnny Knoxville of all people...
Heterosexuals aren't walking around saying I'm straight!!!
Stay classy...

UGA Basketball Upsets Mizzou For Fox
((HT: SECDN/Georgia Dogs))
UGA head men's basketball coach Mark Fox lost his dad five days ago and his Bulldogs team went to Columbia to play the 21st-ranked team in the country... and the team that was ranked 242nd in the RPI came out with an emotional win.
Fox tried to get home to Kansas in time after the Bulldogs game in Washington, D.C. on Friday, but didn’t make it before his dad passed. He went home to Kansas on Saturday, returned to Athens to prep the team before the Missouri game on Sunday and Monday. He went back to Kansas Tuesday before meeting the team in Columbia.
“To win at an old Big Eight school the day after my father passed was very special for me,” Fox told reporters postgame.
Here's the quick version of the highlights as they won 70-64 in overtime...
But leave it to the Mizzou fan base to mock Fox when he broke down on the bench late in overtime...

CFB Saturday: Wrapping Up SEC Upset Craziness
Anybody still want to argue that the SEC is the best conference in college football?
Saturday's game action proved one thing--They're not.
Pretty much every "name" program in the conference lost. And not for the 1st time this season.
We start in Vanderbilt where the limping Georgia Bulldogs continue their tumble down the polls. And ironically, the Dawgs were up 13 going into the 4th quarter in Nashville.
But that's when the wheels fell off.
A fumbled punt, a botched punt snap and a solid performance by Vandy's backup QB Patton Robbinette was all it took for that lead to evaporate and Vanderbilt to get the their 1st win over a ranked team since the 2008 season, 31-27.
Your highlights from CBS Sports:
The craziness continued just 3 hours East in Knoxville when Tennessee knocked off media darling South Carolina when Michael Palardy drilled a 19-yard field goal at the buzzer giving the Vols a 23-21 win.
The Gamecocks didn't exactly help themselves with 3 turnovers and 9 penalties. This despite a big game by star defensive end Jadeveon Clowney.
But Tennessee stayed close, and a circus catch by freshman WR Marquez North was enough to put Palardy in position to give his team their 1st win over a ranked team since 2009.
Your highlights from our friends at ESPN:
And while that was happening, Missouri took full control of the SEC East by dominating an outmanned Florida team in Columbia, Missouri.
QB Maty Mauk stepped in for the injured James Franklin and threw for 295 yards and a TD, Henry Joseph ran for 136 and a score and the Tigers defense sacked beleaguered Gator QB Tyler Murphy 6 times and was in his face pretty much the entire game.
The 36-17 win will get Missouri a place in the Top 10 and a now 2 game lead over their closest competition in the SEC East.
Your Highlights again from our friends at ESPN:
And finally Auburn continues in run towards regaining relevance by taking down Johnny Football and Texas A&M in College Station early Saturday evening.
Auburn QB Nick Marshall threw for 236 and 2 TD's and ran for 100 yards and two more to lead the Tigers to a crazy 45-41 win.
The Tigers were winless in the SEC in 2012 and arguably one of college football's worst teams. The change this season under new coach Gus Mazlahn is nothing short of miraculous.
No, there wasn't a lot of defense played in this game, Manziel threw for 434 yards and 4 TD's and his WR Mike Evans caught 11 passes for 237 yards and a couple of scores. But when Manziel went down with a shoulder injury, the Aggies defense couldn't stop Auburn. Manziel would return, but had a hard time throwing.
The loss pretty much eliminated the Aggies from SEC West or any national title contention.
