Essay On Football Sports

Every year, since what feels like from the beginning of history, Georgia football fans proclaim to every person that pays attention to college football that “we are going to win the national championship this year, I promise.” We have all heard it! Now it may just be because I live in the south in SEC Country, but I have had enough hearing that repetitive phrase over and over again. Between the months of early March till late August, if you open your ears wide enough, you will be able to make out the sound of a Georgia fan promising to a friend that The Bulldogs are going to win it all this year. This Georgia football rant about winning the National Championship needs to stop because it is annoying and repetitive, and us students can relate to it because there are many Marist families that call themselves Georgia football fans.

The turmoil at Florida after Urban Myer left, the chaos that has been Tennessee, which has only recently been calmed by the inception of Butch Jones or the consistent underperformance of Mark Richt coached Georgia teams. However, although coaching is a factor, perhaps the true reason lies with recruiting. It stands to reason that the better players on the field will win. Yes, we all know of the team that overperforms. They play above their ability. In most cases though, when lined up across from each other on the line of scrimmage, the best player will win. This year, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida are all boasting top 10 recruiting classes, although Tennessee might be just outside. However, they have had two top 10 classes in recent years. Better players, an upgrade in coaches and a desire to regain dominance or at least relevance in their own conference is why this might be the SEC east’s

The title says it all. The University of Michigan Football Team has been transformed into a monster from the start of the Harbaugh Era. Before Jim Harbaugh took over as head coach Michigan suffered a devastating 5-7 season and missed a bowl game under Brady Hoke. The team is now on the up rise. Even though the statement may offend some, it is true. There are those critics that firmly disagree because of the big plays the defense sometimes allows, an inexperienced quarterback and weak schedule. Despite their few flaws, Michigan has a championship caliber team capable of monumental wins because of their; prodigious coaching staff, unmatched defensive line, a developing quarterback, improved offense, and the man himself, Jabrill Peppers.

Despite the defense being one of the best in the country, the Owls' offense wasn't too shabby either, thanks to the backfield combination of quarterback P.J. Walker and running back Jahad Thomas. Walker had a solid season, improving from his sophomore year, passing for 2,972 yards, 19 touchdowns,

Everyone has a favorite sports team, right? The Alabama Crimson Tide is the best football team in college football. Under the leadership of Head Coach Nick Saban, Alabama has won 7 of the last 10 Championships. Alabama is in Southeastern Conference (SEC). The SEC is arguably the best Division I Conference in all of college football. They are consistently ranked as one of the top five teams and has one of the toughest schedules in football. Under the pressure of a number one ranking, Alabama defeated five top twenty-five teams including number seven University of Southern California (USC), number twenty-five Texas A&M, number four Washington, number twelve Florida, and number seventeen Louisiana State University (LSU). Alabama finished the

Expectations for first season coach Sam Washington’s football team are exceptionally high as the Aggies are following a 12-0 undefeated regular season, a MEAC championship and a celebration bowl title; being the first MEAC team to finish unbeaten since the conference was born in 1971.

USC’s chances of reaching the College Football Playoff certainly aren’t out of reach. Trojan fans only have to recall the Buckeyes title run following an ugly loss to Virginia Tech in week 2 last season. Saturday’s upcoming contest with Arizona State is probably a must win for USC. The harsh reality is that the Trojans likely have to win all the remaining games on their schedule to achieve their preseason goals.

A win over the Vols for their third SEC victory would be a great way to end the season. It would also mean that Vanderbilt's very slim bowl hopes would stay alive at 5-7 with nine teams still needing their sixth win to gain bowl

The Florida Gators are right in the middle of searching for a new head football coach. The fan base is seeking a coach that'll revitalize a once potent offense. Rumors have been circulating around the internet that the new coach is going to be Chip Kelly. Reading threads and posts on Twitter, from a Gators fan standpoint, this is a no-brainer home-run hire.

History: in 1965, a coach of The Florida Gators, got together with the universities doctors in order to figure out why so many of his players were

In retrospect, the popularity of Kelly's name surfacing to the top of the Gators' coaching list isn't solely focusing on his incredible collegiate coaching record (46-7), but his astounding ability to field formidable offenses. Gators fans across this nation are desperately hoping their new head coach can "Make Florida Fun Again", and Kelly certainly provide that.

The Gators falling to Michigan and then not having the ability to play week two switched my perspective on this game. As Jim McEwlain said, "Defending SEC East champs. It goes through here and it goes through Gainesville." With the SEC East race completely up for grabs, whichever team walks off the field Saturday with a win is in a very good position.

Even though the Scarlet Knights earned their first conference win last week over Nebraska, it’s safe to say that they’re still out-manned by nearly every Big Ten team.

Killens will likely end up regretting this comment. The SEC has more than enough speed, and Auburn’s Kerryon Johnson is one of the best in the conference.

If these scenarios play out, the new rankings would likely have Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson and Wisconsin in the top four spots going into the championship games. At that point, the college football landscape becomes a game of “wait and see”, halted until the championship games play out.
