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.

Look at us we’re pirates. We’re sooooooo scary, Disney grossed almost a billion dollars off of our likeness, ohhhhhhhh. OK ok it’s fucking awesome. Pay homage to 200 Years Too Late.
I respect ECU, think Skipper Holtz is a spit off the ole block and their fans are taking this game by the balls. However, I want to see nothing but Pirate carnage after we’re done boarding Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium. Can we do it? I think so. This bitch is going to be close. ECU is well coached and they’re fundamentally sound. More over, they’re at home on Thursday night, and yes Hokies, that still means something. This is their Super Bowl. So, uh, yeah how are we going to pull this out? I give you two and a half words:  we’re wounded. And it’s that time of year, you know the one where we rally the troops and win games then think to ourselves we haven’t we been doing that all year long. On the field I think upfront we’ll be able to control, no, dominate the line, pound the ball with Williams and give some breathing room for the Tyrod Taylor show. And if my word isn’t good enough Furrer4Heisman has us winning by 10 and that boy is as pessimistic as they get.
