Auburn Tigers' 2010 BCS National Title Confirms That Defense Still Wins Championships in College Football
Recently, Year2 reviewed Tobias J. Moskowitz’s and L. Jon Wertheim’s Scorecasting: The Hidden Influences Behind How Sports Are Played and Games Are Won, citing in the process Jeffrey H. Anderson’s Wall Street Journal review of that same volume, in which the co-creator of one of the BCS computer...
2010 Liberty Bowl Too Much Information: Georgia Bulldogs v. Central Florida Knights
North Georgia is blanketed in snow, the Liberty Bowl is just days away, and I appear inadvertently to have begun this posting in a manner reminiscent of Donna Tartt’s The Secret History. The event---the bowl game, not the virtually unprecedented Christmas snowfall in the Peach State or the...
Four Questions for the Georgia Bulldogs: Ray Goff, Gene Chizik, Will Muschamp, and What to Do When Winning the Opening Coin Toss
The offseason between the 2009 and 2010 college football campaigns was the wackiest ever, but the coming offseason is off to a promising start as one that will give last year’s a run for its money.

I admit it: I dropped the ball. I had business in downtown Atlanta today, and I’m getting geared up for a weekend of University of Georgia athletics that includes a gymnastics meet, a men’s basketball game, and four baseball games. Also, I was focused on saying "I told you so!" because, well, I...
