Yes, We Can
After the awesome, kind of cool, terribly boring addition of the (mighty!) UCONN Huskies to the 2010 Michigan Football schedule I decided to delve into the OOC schedules of recent years to find any trends. The schedules are often times made years in advance, as seen with our home and home scheduled as far out as 2013 with UCONN. Follow me into the shit after the jump.

Notre Dame won that game forty-nine to twenty-faggoty-one. After the game McMackin, in a bitchy tone, said he was SUPER and wanted to know where Dave Pasch had his hair done.

Well that was… unexpected. Michigan just announced that they will open up the newly renovated Big House with the UConn Huskies. There was much anticipation as to what team would open the monumental 2010 home season against the Wolverines and… well… fuck it ended up being UConn. With this news I will kindly go back to my slumber.
NOTE: As CGB kindly posted I will be on the pot all weekend . Email me if you want to chat about the Obama beer party fiasco or if you have anything to share kid.k.keith@gmail.com

This will be the last post out of us until sometime next week. You might see some new content if Maggs posts something while we’re away. We’re starting off with this image from the Richmond Hokie Club to project positive vibes for out upcoming life troubles. And what a classy tie Fowler is wearing, I wonder if he has colors for every team…

Who’s making that paper? College Gridiron 365 has a list of the athletic revenues from the 2007–08 reporting year. These schools are flat out minting money: (1) Texas $120M, (2) Ohio State $117M , (3) Florida $106M, (4) Michigan $99M and (5) Wisconsin $93M . Virginia Tech was 37th with $56,029,172. But don’t fret, we got some real expensive oranges!
Kansas State has atoned for the Power Towel. Will you guys scratch my coin slot. /shivers

F4H is polling the ACC blogosphere for the following:
- predicted order of finish for both divisions (no ties please)
- conference champion
- preseason opoy
- preseason dpoy
- preseason roy
No ties please? Seriously… In a fucking conference ruled by the iron fist of parity I cannot predict a tie for what has to be simplicity’s sake. Â Curses to you F4H! Continue Reading “ACC Preseason Predictions” »

Gregg Doyel should probably write less and think more. In a recent article at CBSSports.com Doyel types:
They are joined, this coach from Michigan [Rich Rodriguez] and that quarterback for Ohio State [Terrelle Pryor], because it is time for both of them — in their own way, at their own school — to live up to the hype. Or to recede into the background while the rest of us move onto the next big thing.
Why should a coach have to prove himself in year two (!!!) of his contract or “recede into the background” as Doyel puts it?  Any reasonable employer is going to allow its newest high profile employee time to succeed before riding him out of town. I have attached a part of Rodriguez’s contract to show Doyel just how much time Michigan plans on offering Coach Rodriguez.

Minnesota’s Tim Brewster, on Big Ten expansion: “I look forward to the day when we add a team and we split the divisions and we play for a championship on national TV on a Saturday night in December.”
That sparked a conversation on twitter, that later spilled into emails, of who the twelfth team should be between @bcinterruption, @gobblercountry, @BeerControl and myself (@cgb_blog). There were some good ideas and I thought I would share them, because what blogger doesn’t love a post that writes itself. Here are my original thoughts on the subject when JoePa brought it up at the end of April. And away we go!
bcinterruption:Â @cgb_blog do you think B11 would go east (RU, Pitt) or west (Mizzou, ISU)? Initially thought east but now leaning west with TCU backfilling.
cgb_blog:Â @bcinterruption They are probably waiting to make a run at Notre Dame…
bcinterruption:Â @gobblercountry @cgb_blog my horses in a Big East expansion would be Delaware (jump to I-A like UConn), Charlotte, ECU, UCF and Marshall.
gobblercountry:Â @bcinterruption @cgb_blog i would like to see b11 add pitt and be add ecu and marshall (9 team round robin) or 3 more for 12 team conference

Expectations, our one weakness. ACC media members have picked Virginia Tech over Florida State in the championship game and Jonathan Dwyer as the player of the year.

Homeless because of the BCS. OK it was by choice, but regardless you have to admire Brandon Kennedy’s devotion for a playoff while shaking your head at the insanity of it.
He has drafted a paper, “The Kennedy Proposal,” that outlines a new system. He sapped nearly all of his $450 bank account to fly from his home in Washington state to Washington, D.C., and has taken up residence underneath bridges and trees in Georgetown, living homeless for the past 13 weeks as he lobbies for change. He has sent, by his estimate, more than 15,000 e-mails and letters to college athletic conference commissioners, athletic directors and NCAA officials over the past year.
Gee-ZUS! Brandon you’ve bested us and have made our posts on the subject look like 13-year-old girl hormone fueled bitchings. Check out all of his blog posts about the BCS on Bleacher Report (ick). Continue Reading “Around the Interwebs” »

Can someone think of a new storyline for these things other than some mute boob looking around for the coach. That will be all.
