NCAA Football '11-'12

Yeah, the 'Canes have 5 national championships to the Gators' 3.

Well, pending the bowl games, Florida State tied Florida International for the best record among the Florida schools this year...

Boise is a fickle whore.

They have an argument.  But then again, at-large bids aren't based on possible competitiveness, but national TV fan base, the traveling fans and the $$$ they'll bring with them to the bowl.

For you Tressel fans (me), he turned down Akron. Rumors are UCLA and A&M are interested.

He turned down the Zips?  What a fucker.

Boise is a fickle whore.

And how.  Well they get to dominate the Big East...West...

Bingo.  That's why Michigan is in a BCS bowl (and was the first at-large chosen), and the far more deserving Kansas State team isn't.  Michigan puts asses in seats and sells well on TV (what with their Cinderella season), while K State doesn't travel well, and doesn't even sell out its own stadium.

$$ talks.

That Colts job might be in his future.

As much as I enjoy the "competitive" angle as much as the next guy--and I'm just going out on a limb here--but your average Michigan alum probably earns more than 1.5 Boise State grads, and will get off from work to take the whole fucking family, while Boise State grads can't get off shift work.  And the nation watches Michigan.

Twice the reasons to hate them then.

I might have to get a Colts blue sweater vest.

Now you may insult me.

No, no...that won't be necessary.  It insults itself.

Akron supposedly fired Rob Ianello by phone--as he was driving to his mother's funeral.  Sure, he needed to be fired, but would you want to work for dickheads like that?

So San Diego State is in the Big East....a team that has gone 39-58 in the Mountain West.  Joining them as Boise State's lackeys are SMU and Houston.  Wow.  The money numbers bandied about have gone from 12 million per team steadily down to 3 million now, and nobody knows for sure.

I will miss some of the old college rivalries, but thankfully SDSU and Boise were never rivals.  For what it is worth, Air Force says they are committed to the Moutain West.

Kansas has hired Charlie Weis to be their HC.
