I hate Notre Dame, but I hate Rick Reilly more and after he dumped on them, I was hoping they had a run like this just so he'd look like a jackass.
I think they'd match up well with Georgia and make the game interesting, but Alabama might run them out of the building in a national championship game. |

Uh, you have UGA alums on your team, right? Then by my theory you'd have some interest in the fact that this NFL factory who's put players on your team is playing for a title.

Man do you like it when half of your team is suspended for August/September because of various criminal activity? IF you do, then then Richt is for you. I love UGA, and I'm constantly amazed at how he manages to avoid the hot seat by winning the SEC East.

Wow, a bunch of HC jobs already open in CFB: Auburn, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Purdue, Colorado, UTEP, Purdue, Boston College, NC State, Cal, Idaho, Western Michigan, and no doubt more will come next few weeks. Auburn gonna spend over $11 million to buy out the contracts of all the coaches. Cutthroat business.

Interesting thing about that Gene Chizik buyout. he will receive about $209,000 per month for the next 36 months. Not bad for a guy who had a losing record at Iowa State, came to Auburn and won a title riding Cam Newton's back.

Peter King of SI said that Chip Kelly is one of the "hot names" in college who a NFL team might take a shot at as HC. Makes no sense. While the spread has worked its way slowly into the NFL, I just don't see the Oregon style spread option working as a base offense. Too much speed and too much money invested in QBs to get hammered 10-20 times a week. Air Raid might work and the Run & Shoot could make a comeback.

Totally concur. I think the lower tier bowl games like Northwest Bumblefuck State and South Central Liver Disease start next week but unless you're putting money down its simply irrelevant. Really only looking forward to the title game anyway.

Some of those games might be good. Fiesta should be fun. Cotton Bowl. How can you not root for Northern Ill in the Orange? I'm a big ten guy so pulling for all of them to try to salvage a terrible year. Go cats!

Not cool with it at all, and it's not only a black eye but essentially a scar that will never go away. I was not involved so much in athletics, and I wish it were possible to say that the entire scandal were simply a part of the athletic department. However, I spent my scholastic career there, earned my B.A. and have good memories and recieved a good education, and for that I am very proud of the institution. Unfortunately, no one will spend much time looking at that, but rather would dwell on the scandal. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that the school should be punished severely for the depth and severity of the scandal, but at the same time it does not define me or my alma mater.

Whew
Faith in society temporarily restored. Can't tell you how feverishly alums argue with me about it. I still think that them playing football in any form sends the message that its all good in the long run, and that if this happened at, say, Tulane that they would have just torn down the entire stadium. But I'm just glad to hear your stance. |

It's tough for a lot of the alums, they take it almost personally, which is understandable to an extent. However, after a short argument and they blow their stack they seem to calm down and accept how bad it really is and how lucky they are to actually have the team playing. They are in the same position as me, an innocent beneficiary of the acedemic and social experience of the university and had nothing to do with the rape scandal but seeing their school ripped to shreds is not a good feeling. Mostly I feel it is mostly frustration from being mocked and condescended to from a majority of Americans, at least I hope thats what it is and that they're not actually that dense and vile.

Boise State backs out of their verbal deal to join the Big East next year and is just staying in the MWC instead. They do however have to pay a partial exit fee but the MWC is helping to pay it and it can be lowered.
San Diego State also considering backing out now that Boise State won't commit which means the MWC could add another $25-$50 million in a new tv deal and the Big East possibly being gone by 2014. |
