ECU and Conference USA are clashing over midfield logos for the Championship game ECU hosts Saturday. ECU wants the badass pirate skull they just paid for at midfield, CUSA wants their logo. I was looking forward to seeing the skull again too.
For some reason it led some ECU SID to create this completely in dry erase marker:
Is it even a choice?
Fallout from the ACC Fail. In typical Atlantic Coast fashion top dogs Georgia Tech and Clemson lost to middle of the pack SEC schools, rejoice ESS EEE CEE homers. Block-C places the blame on Dunce Dabo and From the Rumble Seat sees clouds, but the sky isn’t falling. We still think this weekend’s ACC Championship Game will be the most entertaining since Virginia Tech-Florida State in 2005.
Writing off Coaches. Two phenomenal pieces: Orson on Bowden, and Brendan on Al Groh.
Championship Rematch? Theoretically, yes, it could happen. Will it? We don’t think so. The voters set the precedent in 2006 when they put Florida in the MNC against the Ohio State instead of Michigan. If total chaos plays out on Saturday, the human voters will get wind (via BCS math gurus) of how to vote to avoid said rematch.
The 2009 #ArnBowl in photos, it’s our favorite feature from Friends of the Program. And, bonus, a Taylor Hicks sighting.

Iron Bowl (ALA 39-33-1) Alabama 23 @ Auburn 17 – In traditional with Black Friday the main course will be served before all the appetizers today. Auburn will be able to move the ball, but the Tide defense will prove too tough and Mark Ingram too consistent.

Early this morning, a historic moment occurred on the campus of Ohio State University: The University of Michigan flag was raised outside of both Orton Hall and University Hall.

If you’ve got a rooting interest in Clean Old Fashioned Hate then head over to From the Rumble Seat for a spirited debate.

Georgia Tech and Navy have a couple of things in common. Both schools run Paul Johnson’s spread-option and, two, that’s going to result in the ball being forcibly crammed up their opponents’ ass.
| Team | Rushing Yards (Rank) | Total Yards (Rank) | % Rushing Yards | Rushing Playing | Total Plays | % Total Plays | Points a Game (Rank) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Georgia Tech | 3149 (1) | 4427 (3) | 71.1% | 583 | 700 | 83% | 34.7 (14) |
| Navy | 2866 (2) | 3567 (60) | 80% | 602 | 676 | 89% | 28.8 (49) |
| Throught 11/7/09 I gets mah statisticals from College Football Statistics. | |||||||
Unlike other highly regarded offensive schemes, Johnson’s spread isn’t predicated on balance. In more than eight out of ten snaps Georgia Tech and Navy are going to line up, the offensive  linemen’s finger tips are going to be dug into the dirt, knuckles white, the quarterback is going to holster the leather, sprint out and make a decision of how to best get the rock in space. Simply put, at the end of the day, that’s going to result in a lot yards, points and emergency visits to the proctologist. That is all.

Feel free to sleep in, or get an extra day of worship in, because there isn’t one game before 3:30 worth getting up for.
Wake Forest 24 @ Georgia Tech 42 – Wake is usually good for one big ACC road win a year, and so for they are oh-for. But there’s no way in hell (pun intended) they’re coming away with a win from Bobby Dodd.

The Big 12 North, taking it on the chin since 2003. Pictured above is the aftermath of the Texas’ 7-41 bludgeoning of Mizzou not pictured is Oklahoma’s thrashing of Kansas. Those both came a week after Mizzou’s 17-33 loss to Oklahoma State and Texas Tech’s armed robbery of Nebraska’s Blackshirts. Point being, the Big 12 North is pushing the ACC Atlantic for the unwanted recognition of worst division in college football.
Online Tours of the SEC are departing in five minutes. Get the fuck out, you’ve never spent an afternoon meandering drunkenly through The Grove or screaming your balls off in Death Valley on brisk autumn evening? Don’t be too embarrassed we’ve never been to either and Friends of the Program has us covered with their FREE virtual tours.
Pulse of the ACC. Hell, the most excited I’ve been about N.C. State this week was when Adrian Wilson gave a shout out to Philip Rivers during an interview on the Jim Rome show. That’s just depressing. The locals are sacrificing their prize pigs to Saint Dabo who better stuff himself fat on ham and bacon while he can because that unexpected loss is right around the corner. Dane and Winfield score a Pee-wee Herman in an adult theater on the CGB Giddy Scale. Brian and Jeff are adrift in a motionless ocean of what happened and are trying to figure out how to tell their wives they won’t at home in time for Foxtrot lessons. And, finally, Softball Face wants ‘Noles to forget the Ponder/Tebow comparisons.
His sweater vest won’t be dry cleaned, steamed, re-steamed nor will his American flag pin be within .01% error perpendicular to the center of a loosely knotted tie, because Evil Tressel is back. Bitches.

Staring Rick “Doc” Walker.
@edsbs [everydayshouldbesaturday.com]
Doc is awesome. On injury replay:”That’s broke! Um, that appears to be broken.”
Rick “Doc” Walker on Derrick Morgan: “He’s a natural born baller.” Want to hear Brent Musburger use same phrase, plz.
@cgb_blog I still like Doc calling a guy a unicorn.
@RockabyeArena [thearena.wordpress.com]
The Raycom color guy just said that Virginia’s Nate Collins “has been a unicorn.” Words fail.
Raycom sideline guy yaps about some player’s Rocket Propulsion class. Walker saying some player may actually be possessed. Perfect ACC game.
Large “BYE” in yellow letters just flashed on Raycom’s broadcast. Please deliver screengrab, Internet.
You ask and I deliver.

For some added context this was right after UVA punted, BYE BYE GAME!

This is our new Thursday night thread. We hope YOU our readers and friends in the blogosphere pop your heads in and engage in a little conversation.

This is a weekend of under cards, but let’s take a look at the inner beauty.
Florida State 28 @ North Carolina 26 – To date this is the least exciting Thursday night game of the season. FSU is fighting for bowl eligibility and North Carolina needs a big win at home to feed their fan base. The ‘Noles have proven they can put up points while North Carolina has struggled  to find their groove. FSU’s defense has been suspect, but is good enough to hold the Heels in check.
South Florida 13 @ Pittsburgh 20 – Don’t punch me in the balls Wanstache.
Georgia Tech 27 @ Virginia 17 – From here on out, for obvious reasons, I’ll have my eye on Georgia Tech. For those who turn a blind eye to ACC football, Virginia Tech needs our engineering brethren in the Dirty to lose so we control our own destiny in the ACC again. The Jackets haven’t won in Charlottesville since 1990, but unfortunately their offense will be too much for the Cavs to handle. They’ll grind out the clock and UVA will waste half of their precious possessions.
Boston College 27 @ Notre Dame 30 – Brian and Jeff took some time away from knitting new tights for dance class to take a look at the history between the Eagles and Irish. The Eagles are riding a six game winning streak into South Bend, but we’re picking the Irish because Boston College has been outscored 21-73 on the road this year. The winner will receive representation in the Jesus graphic above. Current Jesus Cup standings have been provided for your convenience.
| Team | Wins | Losses |
|---|---|---|
| TCU | 6 | 0 |
| BYU | 6 | 1 |
| Boston College | 5 | 2 |
| Notre Dame | 4 | 2 |
| SMU | 3 | 3 |

We haven’t done this in a while, we think it’s like riding a bike, but tell us if we’re doing it wrong.

The thrill of victory and agony of defeat. Purdonkulous victory by the Boilers over the Buckeyes. Man, it was great being down there, and there’s no better way to leave a field than through the field gate surrounded by thousands of smiling fellow Boilers–Boilerdowd of Boiled Sports. The warriors draped in scarlet and gray are questioning accountability, desire and competence. Georgia Tech’s win over the Hokies had Winfield and Dane partying over at President Peterson’s house where afterward they no doubt retired home, zipped themselves into adult sized onesies, and watched bootlegged anime. Good game guys. From here on out we’re siding with BCO, one game at a time, and no it’s not all Brian Stinespring’s fault. And it can always be worse. Continue Reading “Around the Interwebs” »

Frank’s stare down at the impossible turned reality sums up a heart breaker of a night in Atlanta. If you’re keeping count, and I am, we’re 0-2 in the Dirty and if offered we shouldn’t accept a bid to the Peach Bowl. Two thousand and nine will be just another odd numbered year where our National Championship hopes fall by the wayside. But chin up Hokies we had an outside chance, at best, of a MNC appearance let alone win and we’re in the thick of the ACC Championship race.
