On Halloween, to go with the black and orange is probably Lane Kiffin’s only best idea since he got to Knoxville. (Besides taking off his shirt.)

(Did Layla have anything to do with the change? Seriously?)
Not everyone agrees with my assessment though.
On the left is another style the Vols have gone with in the past.

We’re fully stocked with fun-size Milky Way bars here at SbB headquarters, and if there isn’t a wide variety of people dressed in various versions of the above costume tonight, we’ll be sorely disappointed. Party hardy, everyone; but use caution. We value each and every one of you.

Daniel Orton will face insane scrutiny as a highly-touted 6-10 freshman at Kentucky, so it’s good to see him efforting already, even if it is his Halloween costume. (Okay, I know, a stretch. Work with me.)

Orton, on the left, is a Might Morphin Power Ranger. At least that’s what they tell me.  […]

There’s no doubt that Jackson made the better catch. The angle that he caught the ball was such that […]

Here’s some photos of the black helmets worn today by the Georgia Bulldogs against Florida in Jacksonville. The team actually warmed up before the game in its traditional red lids, but then busted out black for the first time in school history.

As an alumnus of UGA, I’m not too keen […]

UPDATE: Florida’s Riley Cooper also made a jaw-jacking grab in the UF-UGA tilt. I matched up videos of both catches today for you to decide (vote on) which was better. I still say Jackson’s (below) was the superior haul.
Missouri’s Jerrell Jackson is your leader in the clubhouse for college football’s catch of the year.

Lakers gacked against the Mavericks last night, not that anyone will remember the game result in a few weeks.

But Shannon Brown, for the second time already this season, did give us a reason to mark Halloween Eve, 2009.

Scott Miller of CBSSports.com reports that George Steinbrenner’s health must be seriously failing if the treatment he received at Yankee Stadium for the World Series was any indication.

When Steinbrenner exited the stadium after Game 2, elevators were shut down (without warning!), stairwells were locked and …

Lunar space landing. Beatles on Ed Sullivan. Final episode of M*A*S*H. Johnny Carson’s last show. All seminal moments in the history of television. I’m pleased to report today that you can now, offcially add another eminent epoch in small screen time to that distinguished list:
