Wyoming completely trounced Div 1AA (whatever the fuck that level is called) Weber State 35-32!

I see at least 3, maybe 4 wins this year, perhaps some over Div 1 opponents (Not sure if New Mexico or UNLV count as Div 1).  True freshman quarterback looked very good, the defense apparantly has a new philosophy of the "Paul Westhead" system...

I really hope it was young team jitters and a lesser team coming to Laramie and playing above their heads, or this is gonna be a long year - I mean, Grumbler in the RichRod era kinda long...

SEC speed got wacked by BYU and BOise State though.

You're reaching. Those teams both had much better records than their opponents last year.

I don't buy into the SEC speed hype all that much, but one of those teams that got whacked was Georgia.  You watch their offense, you get the feeling that Mark Richt wishes he was coaching a Big Ten team during the "3 yards and a clould of dust" era, except that he'd really prefer 2 yards and a cloud of dust.

Georgia is dead to me.

Georgia is dead to me.

They've always been dead to me.  Except for the Herschel Walker years.

For Valmy, the meth endzone:

I'm not liking Maryland's uniform/helmet combo I don't think.  Then again, they might have gone so far beyond terrible that they circled back around to cool. 

E:  The Terps offense is rolling though.  *hits submit, false start on the O*

[Ed Anger]

Holy fuck, my eyes were raped.

As I read the furor about Oklahoma wanting in the Pac-Whatevah, I am wondering if Texas might be tempted to go to the Big-Whatevah instead.  Eyeballing the distances, it doesn't seem they would be traveling that much further (other than when they go to some other P-W school in Texas) and the maximum distances are certainly less.

Plus, they'd fit better in the B-W, and the B-W has a better business model.

Yeah, at first I was like, oh man...then it was, hmmmm...that's pretty nifty.

Of course, I'd have been fine with an all-Calvert Catholic cross motif, since that side looks cool as if the Templars had a Maltese campus in the ACC, and skip the Lord Baltimore theme.

Touchdown Terpies.

[CountDeMoney]

Christ Danny, you could've mailed that one in.

[MadBurgerMaker]

Wow.  The Terps need to stop fucking around in the red zone.  Miami with the lead all of the sudden.

Fat guy TDs are awesome

I figured Texas for an independent with that TV contract, no sure how that would work out with the BCS though.

Doesn't the PAC-12 schools have such a great TV contract that they'd make more money there.
