    The college football world was glued to Bill Belichick’s appearance on the Pat McAfee Show on Monday, and Belichick confirmed his discussions with North Carolina about the Tar Heels’ head coach vacancy. But Belichick still hasn’t been hired. So what’s happening? Will we see Bill Belichick in college football, or is this dance being done to help him land another NFL job?

    Georgia confirmed on Monday that quarterback Carson Beck has an elbow injury, and no one seems optimistic that he’ll be ready to play in the Sugar Bowl against the Indiana-Notre Dame winner. Is Gunner Stockton ready to step in full-time?
