And now, for a limited time only, THE BAND IS OUT ON THE FIELD!!!"
Boston College put up a stinker at home vs. The Orange. There is no one in the Big East that I want to see in a big BCS game... I'd much rather see a Boise State or how a Louisville can do in a big game setting. It's really hard to tell if teams like these are for real or just having the benefit of playing in a secondary division.
Hard not to feel bad for Auburn being left out of the Championship game... You beat Georgia and LSU and go to Tennessee and win there by 24 points and they are going to play against Tennessee again next week. If they win that game they would have won 4 games vs. Top25 teams as Oklahoma & USC only won 3 games each.
smark/net attack wienerville advisory holds at ORANGE alert - High (JBL is STILL WWE champion and now smarks arch enemy HHH is the World Champion. Major red threat, but the undercard seems okay. The alert holds... for now)- 9/19
LeRoy Butler re-negotiated his contract. He will be playing for the veteran's minimum for the next two years (three if he plays that long). This is the second consecutive year that he has negotiated down his contract (costing himself over $2 Million).
