Bad sportsmanship?

Every Tuesday I read that one column on NFL.com by Gregg Easterbrook called 'Tuesday Morning Quarterback'. It's a good column filled with random stats and happenings over the past week. Anyways, the past couple weeks he's talked about a college that totally blows other schools out like every week. Winning games by like 70 points. And they continue to run up the score, even in the fourth quarter. Like in one game, they were up 63-7 and ran a fake punt. And they pass a lot in the fourth quarter, rather than run out the clock, etc.

Anyways, is that just really bad sportsmanship? I mean, personally I feel that in any game, you want to keep trying to win to prevent any sort of comeback. I mean, just look at the Seattle/St. Louis game last week, when St. Louis came back after a 17-point deficit and won in OT. So yeah, it's good to keep playing until the game is over, IMO. But I mean, where do you draw the line? Being up 50, 60 points is a bit ridiculous. How can you justify demeaning a team like that? Realistically, there is no way they will ever come back from that. That is just bad sportsmanship. What do you think?
