The new model for turning a college football program around is the transfer portal.

In the long, glorious history of the New York Yankees, the most decorated franchise in professional sports, it's very difficult to argue for unfair treatment - except in areas where the personal biases of writers are allowed to intervene.

Few things in life are close enough to perfect that trying to improve upon them has been well established as folly. The first sip of good whiskey after five minutes in crushed ice.

If you had to pick a well-known phrase to sum up Eli Drinkwitz's ethos, what do you think it would be? "Look twice before you leap," may be one. "Slow and steady wins the race," could be another.

Georgia set the curve again with a dominant assembly of talent and a wave of youth that kept the red and black mean machine chugging down the tracks. Here's how I grade each SEC team's season.
