  1. Go Huskies! Now wondering if I should go back and read this thread.... 😂
  2. Won't happen. This conference eats its own. Every year.
  3. He's waiting until late in the 4th quarter.
  4. UW and Oregon have fairly similar income/budgets. Of course most of Oregon's cash comes from one guy, but money is money. I'd imagine UCLA is a bit higher than that. Colorado's is lower. Chip's problem may be that UCLA (or Colorado, UW, Texas, etc.) won't play the SEC way as far as recruiting and the like, and Oregon will and does. He not only took over a program in much better shape at Oregon, he was almost certainly given a freer hand there by the administration. UCLA and UW have nearly identical football histories but the UW has gone from the top to the ultimate bottom and back up again in the 20 years since UCLA has won the conference. UCLA should always be 2 through 4 in the conference and competing for #1 with USC, as should UW and (ugh) Oregon at least while Uncle Phil draws breath. Problem is that Stanford, Utah, and WSU have been coached up above their historical standards, and USC and UCLA have not.
  5. Go 'Clones! (Dead duck is always in style... nice job, Al!)
  6. Go Paladins! Lived for a while in Greenville, SC - Furman's a good school with a beautiful campus. Plus you can get "FU" caps at the bookstore there.
  7. Fuck lightning delays. That is all. (at least this game won't finish at 1:30am)

    I Know Haiku

    I have seen the ants They seem to have a good time Jesus. I've seen things.
  9. Huh. I'd have assumed you could just sell that stuff by the jar. In some places, anyway.
  10. Go figure, ESPN screwed up. They're actually AT Washington on 9/28. Brutal opening schedule.
  11. UCLA was the UPI poll national champion in 1954 (Ohio State was the AP's champion). So, at least they have 15 years on A&M....
  12. What is amazing to me, someone who grew up watching Terry Donahue and Don James battle it out with each other and with USC year after year, is that UCLA hasn't won the conference since 1998. That's stunning.
  13. Buck up SB. At least Tyrone Willingham is not your coach .
  14. Highest pre-season ranking? They finished #2/4 in 2008, IIRC. Go Utes!
  15. Colin Woodard's book (from whence the map and story came) is fascinating and well worth the read. I too think it's pretty spot on.
  16. Every time I stop by this thread it's easy to remember why A&M pisses everyone off so much, rival or no. I mean for me Oregon can go to hell, but they're not freaking nut jobs. Oh, and fuck 1984 BYU too.
  17. Don't miss that trip. Would love to have another home and home with them.
  18. Who knew white knights rode pigs?
  19. Might as well toss Oregon in there as well then, after that scintillating 7-6 bowl game where they and Heisman hopeful Herbert barely managed 200 yards of total offense against Michigan State.
  20. All of this is true. And very good. Utah will be very salty this year. Would not be surprised to see them win the conference.
  21. Was at the match. The Ruidiaz goal was sick.
  22. Well, he still owes the Seahawks $800k. What else do you expect him to do? That's just smart money management right there, paying nothing on the dollar for a sweet ride like that.
