Measurables 2025 Stats Awards/Accolades Strengths Weaknesses Draft Projection Round 2 Grade Chambliss is perhaps the most exciting QB prospect in the 2026 Draft Class outside of the clear cut top 2 of Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza and Oregon’s Dante Moore. Like those two, he has led his team to the College Football Playoff Semi-Finals, but has […]
Indiana football has won more bowl games in the past 12 days than it had in the previous 34 years. The Hoosiers beat Alabama 38-3 on January 1 in the Rose Bowl, which doubled as a College Football Playoff Quarterfinal. They followed it up by beating Oregon 56-22 on January 9 in the Peach Bowl, […]
The Transfer Portal Window has been up and active for a week now, and something like 30% of the entirety of college football has entered it. And why not? Even if you intend to stay, it honestly isn’t a terrible idea to jump in anyway to see if you can secure a higher payment. For […]
Alabama hosted a Texas team that has lost six games against a tough slate in the early going and things didn’t go well for the home team, as the Longhorns walked out of Coleman with a 92-88 victory. Texas looked nothing like an unranked, winless in SEC play team early on. They were on fire […]
Happy Friday, everyone. The Miami Hurricanes pulled out a close one last night to advance to the national title game, and tonight Oregon will face off against Indiana in the other semifinal. Indiana feels almost inevitable, but we will see. The Alabama women’s basketball team posted a huge win yesterday, and at 16-1 looks poised […]
Crimson Tide quarterback Ty Simpson has informed the Alabama coaches that he will enter the NFL Draft. Simpson wrote in an Instagram post that included a narrated video: “Grateful for every single second. Blessed beyond measure to be able to chase my dreams. Time to roll. Roll Tide.” “It wasn’t all perfect and it didn’t […]
Kentucky Football continues to aggressively reshape its roster in the transfer portal, adding a massive piece to the offensive line with the signing of former Alabama lineman Olaus Alinen. On3’s Pete Nakos reported that Alinen has officially signed with the Wildcats after visiting both Lexington and Auburn during his time in the portal. He will […]
Good morning, BBN! Well, there hasn’t been much optimism since the Alabama game, and for good reason. Despite having a healthy team, the Kentucky Wildcats looked horrible against the Tide, never really being in the game. There are so many questions, and everything we’ve seen from Coach Pope in the media has only drawn more […]
If you missed it in our roster tracker article, there were three bigger pieces of new yesterday for Alabama’s roster. First, Parker Brailsford declared for the NFL Draft: I think Brailsford should be a solid day-2 pick, and any NFL team will be happy to have him. He was a bright spot for Alabama the […]
Happy Monday, everyone. Nate Oats’ squad opened SEC play in resounding fashion, whipping Kentucky in front of a raucous Coleman Coliseum crowd. Per usual, Nate was not shy in the postgame presser. “Kentucky’s not what everybody was hoping over there that they would be this year, but they still have a lot of talent,” Oats […]
Alabama’s season is officially over, and the transfer portal window has now opened. The window will run for two weeks – from today until January 16th – and this extended January window eliminates the spring transfer window. For this year at least… Who knows what the rules will be next year. Alabama has generally seemed […]
Happy Friday, everyone. Or, as happy as it can be around here after watching Alabama get dominated in another postseason game, the possibility of which had to be in the back of every Alabama fan’s mind. I am not going to bother writing an Initial Impressions post for that game. Here’s the impression: Alabama didn’t […]
No. 1-seed Indiana football’s 38-3 win over No. 9-seed Alabama in the Rose Bowl Game on Thursday afternoon was historic for a few reasons. For Indiana, it’s the Hoosiers’ first Rose Bowl win and the program’s first bowl win overall since 1991. For Alabama, it’s the largest postseason loss by margin in program history. Nobody […]
Indiana became the first team in the 12-team playoff era to survive the First Round Bye and advance to College Football Playoff Semifinals, doing so in dominant fashion against an Alabama team that was alleged to be more battle-tested than the Hoosiers. Outside of some potential jitters and probable technical issues on the first and […]
For the eighth time this season, Curt Cignetti’s Indiana Hoosiers got out to a big enough lead to bring in Alberto Mendoza and the the rest of the second-team players for some second half reps. This time, it came against the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Rose Bowl, helping Indiana advance to the College Football […]
I got nothing. There is no shame in losing this game. But everyone in the building should be ashamed of the effort we saw today. They were listless, error prone, and proved everyone right who said they didn’t belong. There isn’t one position group that you can point to and say that they did their […]
Alabama’s offense decided to show up to the Rose Bowl about as lifelessly as they possibly could, scoring all of 0 points. The one time they started to put together a drive and got past mid field, Ty Simpson fumbled at the end of a nice run. Just a pathetic showing from the entire group […]
No. 1-seed Indiana football is set to take on No. 9-seed Alabama this afternoon in the 2026 Rose Bowl Game, which doubles as a College Football Playoff Quarterfinal, at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California. We’ve said this quite a bit as of late, but this is in all likelihood the biggest game in […]
