Posted Wednesday January 14, 2009, About: Miami, LSU finalists for nation's best WR

Geaux to LSU! Sure, you'll start at Miami right away but it won't matter. You won't win a national championship with them and the ACC's plan of imitating the SEC is backfiring, so the conference is down right now. Just check the the BCS game they played, lowest rating ever for them. I'm sure Cincinatti had something to do with that but still, boring conference and no chance of winning an NC or best conference and a shot at winning an NC! Plus LSU is sending more people to the NFL than Miami is and has been for the last few years!

Posted Thursday September 11, 2008, About: Huskies flag irks Pac-10 coaches

Dumb rule but:

1) Would we even be discussing this had the kicker made the extra point?
2) Where did these PAC10 refs come from, everyone knows you never flag your team!
3) Everyone has a say so on this but it's easy to say a rule is a rule and they broke it, when it's not the team you root for. What if it were say a USC with national title hopes?

It's a rule but I think refs use their judgement on several calls and this definitely should've been a time to do so.

Should've made that decision during the spring. Tyrod probably would've beaten Glennon out for the starting job. Glennon was horrible last year and I'm wondering what the coaches saw him do in the spring that made them give him another chance.

Can anyone say Michael Strahan? Kiwanuka is good but he's no Strahan!
