Michigan football stock watch: The defense implodes
Nick Baumgardner Detroit Free Press Published 11:39 AM EST Nov 25, 2018 Free Press sports writer Nick Baumgardner looks at which Michigan football players or position groups helped and hurt their stock in Saturday's 62-39 loss at Ohio State: 3 up WR Nico Collins Collins made two outstanding catches in the end zone for touchdowns Saturday, finishing with four receptions for 91 yards and two scores. Collins finishes the regular season with 552 yards and six touchdown catches. He has had a very productive sophomore season and appears to have himself set up for a breakout year as a junior in 2019.

North Carolina: Fedora out as football coach after 7 seasons
RALEIGH, N.C. -- North Carolina says football coach Larry Fedora is out after seven seasons. The school announced the decision in a news release Sunday morning. That came less than a day after an overtime loss to rival North Carolina State that dropped the Tar Heels to 2-9 and concluded with a brawl between the teams in the end zone. Fedora's exit completes a swift fall. The program won 11 games and an Atlantic Coast Conference division championship in 2015. UNC went 5-18 over the past two seasons marred by injuries, inexperienced players and close losses.The move will cost UNC about $12 million owed on Fedora's contract that runs through the 2022 season.In a statement, athletic director Bubba Cunningham says it "simply is time to take our football program in a new direction."___More AP college football: https://apnews.com/Collegefootball and http://www.twitter.com/AP_Top25___Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap … [Read more...] about North Carolina: Fedora out as football coach after 7 seasons
Big Ten title won’t guarantee Ohio State a College Football Playoff berth
Ohio State made a big statement with an emphatic win over Michigan but beating Northwestern to win the Big Ten won’t guarantee them anything. The Ohio State Buckeyes came into rivalry weekend with plenty of questions. They had just come off a hard fought victory over Maryland, and with Michigan soaring, most people believed they didn’t have enough to beat the Wolverines, even in Columbus. It turned out the Buckeyes had saved their best performance for their longtime rival. They dominated the Wolverines in every facet of the game. The defense shut down the run, their special teams blocked a punt, and quarterback Dwayne Haskins threw for five touchdowns. They dropped 62 points on Michigan, the most the Wolverines have ever allowed in a game. That win puts them right back in playoff contention and gets them to the Big Ten championship game against Northwestern next weekend, a game where they will be favored by a significant margin. There is still bad news despite the win. Even … [Read more...] about Big Ten title won’t guarantee Ohio State a College Football Playoff berth
