Given the misery of USC fans the past three years of the Helton era, Bohn could not have made a more thrilling statement that things were about to change for the better — and quickly.

The great news? He gets to keep trying to do it right here. Welp, this is what Oregon gets for hiring a coach whose love for his mother, his hometown and his alma mater knows no bounds. But Eugene never seemed like the long-term play for Cristobal.

The pull of Miami was always going to be there for him, and the timing was finally right for both sides with the Hurricanes floundering under Manny Diaz and Utah reminding Cristobal twice in three weeks just how far the Ducks still have to go before they can truly compete for a national championship. The main issue seemed to be his recruiting; while the Gators had classes in the top 10 nationally, they did not have one class under Mullen that finished in the top three in the SEC.

This grade honors the efficiency and clean execution in securing an enticing coach who appears ready for the big time. And his exit came as a major shock, particularly as the Irish needed only a few upsets on championship Saturday to make their third CFP semifinal appearance in four seasons.

Of course, Freeman is a risk because he has never been a head coach. But if it becomes clear early he is in over his head, Swarbrick could then conduct that national search with proper preparation to get it right.

Tigers fans should be happy about Kelly. It was baffling this season watching Lake stick with Dylan Morris for so long while Huard kept waiting for his chance to show what he can do. DeBoer went as the head coach of his alma mater, Sioux Falls S.

He led the program to three NAIA championships and has steadily risen up the profession since then. The Huskies are the most recent Pac program to make the playoff, but in their current shape, any big swings were likely to be misses. Venables has spent his career watching legendary head coaches do their thing — Bill Snyder at Kansas State as a player and assistant , Stoops and Swinney. These two division rivals will be meeting for the third time this season.

The Patriots and Bills split their season-series with the home team losing each time. Sunday, Jan. The Eagles will get another crack at a Buccaneers team that beat them back in Week 6. After that loss, the Eagles went over their final 11 games to earn a playoff berth. This will be a rematch of one of the most storied rivalries in NFL playoff history. Although these two teams have met seven times in the playoffs, this will mark their first postseason meeting since the season, which is also the last time the 49ers won the Super Bowl..

Ben Roethlisberger will get a chance to put off his retirement for another week or two if the Steelers can figure out a way to upset the Chiefs. However, that won't be easy, considering Kansas City blew the Steelers out just two weeks ago. Monday, Jan.
