DALLAS — Before the first family of football had so much as planted its tree, there was only Archie. He was plenty on his own. Consider when he played for Ole Miss against Alabama in 1969 and amassed a total of 540 yards, becoming the first college player to pass for 300 yards and rush for 100 in an era when quarterbacks mostly just handled the luggage.

PITTSBURGH — Few things better signify fall’s arrival than a cocky post-victory quote from Pat Narduzzi. Seemingly every October, the temperatures drop, the leaves turn brown and Pitt’s football coach delivers a sound bite that irks at least a portion of the college football world.

PITTSBURGH — This is an image of euphoria, unbridled in all its glory and staged atop the synthetic turf of the Louisiana Superdome. Here’s Mike Suley, right in the middle of it. The Pitt superfan was 27 then. A brown belt is fastened around his dark blue jeans. Tucked into his pants is the light blue T-shirt he got for Christmas, with its contrasting navy trims on the collar and sleeves, and ...
