Good Post. However, I don't know why the Big Ten and Pac Ten expansion would impact the Big 12 scheduling. The Big Ten already plays 8 conference games each year, and that probably won't change. The Pac 10 plays 9 conference games each year, and that certainly won't increase and could...

Sheryl and I both enjoy a good beer buzz early in the morning.

Well, that's pretty much it. The odds are against us, just as they are against everybody. We have as good a chance as anybody, though.

Vegas odds were 25 to 1 on Alabama prior to last year.

Well, I'll tell you something that you probably don't want to hear. For most Bama fans, the only way you wouldn't be Tide fans is if we didn't have a football team. That would change everything in your belief system. Since the majority of Alabama fans are from Alabama, I would think that...

I live near there. Lots of "Roll Tide Roll" banners around town, but they're crimson on sort of a light gold color.

I live in Pennsylvania, and I don't get that at all. Most people here are very impressed with Alabama and southern football in general.

High School football rules vary from state to state.

I'm not normally the word police, but I couldn't resist. I'm pretty sure you meant to use the word piqued. However, given the subject matter, my interest also peaked, but not as much as if I had peeked at the proceedings. As far as the subject matter of the thread goes, I think it was Dennis...

A few years back I had a co-worker who was a Louisville grad. I was at his house one day, and he had several framed newspaper articles concerning Louisville sports. Obviously, most were basketball, but one was the write-up of their win over us. He saw me reading it and said something to the...

Well, if my math is correct, at 115 mph the football would cover 56 yards in one second. Wouldn't have to worry too much about a defensive back making a break on the ball, but I'm not sure how his receivers are going to catch it.

Dude, don't you see his picture on his shirt? He's cut!

I'll come down and feed Snickers. Just leave plenty of beer in the fridge.

Looks like more than "a single mistake" was made.

I don't really see this as a big deal, and I don't think it will put the conference at a recruiting disadvantage. For the 2009 signing class, the Big Ten, Pac Ten and Big 12 had no teams who signed over 28 players. The ACC had one (N. Car. with 29), and the Big East had one (USF with 30)...
