ESPN ranked the top-25 college football players of the 21st century in order ... and a total of zero Ohio State players made the list. Well, unless you include quarterback Joe Burrow who came in, fittingly, No. 9 on the list. (Burrow wore the No. 9 at LSU and currently dons it for the Cincinnati Bengals.)

It may not get the views that ESPN’s College GameDay gets, but FOX’s Big Noon show has cut into the college football pregame viewership. Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, Brady Quinn, and Urban Meyer are sometimes more entertaining and more insightful than what you now get on the “worldwide leader.”

If you're a Kansas football fan, you have to be lighting up the phones at the university to ensure that a statue of Lance Leipold gets built immediately. The fourth-year head coach might have a losing record in his first three years with the program, but he's turned the Jayhawks around in a hurry, getting better each season. In fact, Kansas was 9-4 in 2023 and that was mostly without star quarterback Jalon Daniels. Just imagine how good the Jayhawks will be now that he's back.
