Bottom-line, the fans who don't want Bama in the BCSCG don't want them there because they know Bama has a chance to win it. They are thereby admitting that Bama BELONGS in that game, because quite frankly, there aren't any other teams that seem to have much of a chance to win it against such a...

Re: Fake Saban quote about the NC game going around I did a date specific search of the quote on Google. Ranged it from June 2003 to June 2007. I got one hit, and I'm betting none of you will be surprised where from.... Where does most manure come from?

I was browsing the College Football Data Warehouse and noticed something...the last 3 seasons all rank in the top 5 of Bama's all-time most points scored in a season. And something else, this season is on track to score 500+ points easily making it the #1 ranked offense in Bama's history. I...

I would have preferred they used LSU's actual yellow, but other than that, I like them! I don't think the shoes would look as bad with the yellow instead of gold. I love the white helmet! (wish we'd use them from time to time)

TideFans simply won't be the same without him. He will be missed. Prayers go out to his family.

Let's not be overly naive either. For some of these guys it's a business ploy or a status symbol. They use these autographs and photos to show how important they are and/or why you should do business with them.

The OSU guy is trying to save face for his alma mater by attempting to vilify someone else (Saban). The bottom-line is that people attack Saban on this issue because he masterfully works within the current rules to give himself an advantage and he is unapologetic about it. He has never been...

I personally think the elimination of pre-season or early-season polls would help significantly in the BCS polls being more accurate. If we're all honest with ourselves, those are based almost wholly on the previous season's results (with some assumption on what a team MAY be capable of). If...

Realized that the NFL has 12 teams, not 8, in their playoff. Had to adjust the numbers slightly.

Nicely said, JunctionBoy. I like either Sully's hybrid BCS-poll/tourney or JunctionBoy's suggestion. If we're talking about an 8-team playoff, I think people are over-reacting in regard to the negative affect to the regular season. Here's why: Keep in mind that the 65-team tourney field in...

Important contrast to note about all the accusations against *U and the accusations JLee has made. All the accusations about *U were made by people who were actually INVOLVED in the situations; the MSU alumni that were actually asked for money or the players that actually received it. Also...

Let's start off slowly. How about houndstooth endzones?? Admittedly, I've always been fascinated at the prospect of white helmets for our road unis.

So, every school should be expected to have no more than around four players have career ending injuries/conditions in a decade? That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. First of all, many of these health-related conditions are protected by privacy laws, so they would not be made...

The Big Ten folks are complaining the loudest because their conference doesn't allow oversigning at all. I guess I look at it like this...the NCAA sets the standards and rules. If the Big Ten wants to enforce stricter standards and rules, fine. But don't complain that all others are unethical...

This is an excellent point. However, if the student athlete is performing on the field and in the classroom to the best of their abilities, then I have a problem with them losing their scholarship.

Not dinging you, just debating the claim of the article's author.

Ok, so according to your link he ran the 100m in 10.81. There's no way he's running a world record-smashing 40yd dash, but is over a second slower than the world record in the 100m (9.58 - Usain Bolt). And as you pointed out, he's heavier now, so he should be slower than when that 100m time...

Or they can keep playing their weak schedule every year, hope that everyone else loses 1 or 2 games against real opponents and get into the BCSCG. I think this is their chosen course. Just to be clear, I'm not clamoring for a playoff. I wouldn't mind seeing it, but I'm ok with what we have...

What do you mean?

I was glad too, but all the analysts said a one-loss SEC team would still go above an undefeated BSU (and rightly so). My point is, the only way they could fairly prove they're deserving of a title would be to compete with the best in a playoff.
