Alabama, this IS your fan-base.updated with correct Virginia Tech-Alabama video

BHGP rocks the blogoshophere in the face with If College Football Programs Were Pro Wrestlers. Virginia Tech would probably be Diamond Dallas Page, highly respectable, dominated the 2nd tier and then finally reached elite status by winning the Heavyweight Championship (we hope).

Mississippi State has installed the very first dual baby changing/abortion station. The Dan Mullen regime is glorious and may it continue for many moons.

The Jim Tressel Mood Chart. Oh hello friend. John you say, pleasure to make you acquaintance,  Jim Tressel. No I haven’t had BOTOX my face is just stuck in this expressionless state. Unless you steal my favorite sweater vest then I get real ornery and have to choke-a-bitch.

The Birddog whips up a fantastically hilarious  fictional tale based on a true events. It seems like GoMids posters are just like every other message board dumb-ass.

Virginia Tech Previews. Over the Pylon has VT number 10 in their pre-season countdown and for a blog with no invested interest in VT they do a nice job previewing the Hokies. And we wrote the VT preview over at The Big Lead.

Urban Meyer doesn’t like his SI cover picture. You know you’ve made it when you can bitch about how you look on the FUCKING SI COVER. Florida AD Jeremy Foley is trying to schedule SI to visit the Swamp in 2013 so 1) Meyer has another reason to not leave for Notre Dame 2) revenge is a dish best served cold motherfuckers.

Andy Hutchins takes a look at the bigger picture involving homoeroticism, homosexuality and athletes in a phenomenal post.

The Lamborghini is definitely blushing.

Doak Walker Candidates Announced. With so many names we thought it was impossible to snub any player on any college football watch-list. But Penn State’s Evan Royster isn’t one of the 45 players list as a Doak Walker candidate. Royster rushed for over 1200+ yards in ‘08 and will be featured even more in ‘09 while the Nitany Lions try to break in young inexperience wide receivers.

Steele, Turnovers and BCI. Brian looks at Phil Steele’s turnover predictor and what it means for our beloved ACC. Long story short it only applies to Miami, Wake Forest and Virginia Tech. If VT falls within the 80% success rate, the Hokies won’t win more than 10 games. Meanwhile Jeff, who was last seen wearing purple, must still be doing housework.

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

Rivals.com, that ranks McNair as a three-star prospect, says that TU has offered him a scholarship as has West Virginia, Southern Mississippi and Mississippi State. McNair, Jr. is listed as 6-1, 195 pounds. As a junior he caught 58 passes for 962-yards, averaging 16.6 yards per catch and scoring eight touchdowns. (KTUL)

Charlie Weis pondered leaving Notre Dame.

Leave Notre Dame. Return to the comfort zone of an NFL coordinator’s job. End the abuse, the kind that led son Charlie Jr. to skip school for three days after the Irish’s home loss to Syracuse. “We talked about all that as a family, and we felt that we didn’t want to leave that way,” Weis said during a recent 35-minute interview with the Tribune. “That would have been the easy way out. That’s not why we came here.”

I guarantee if Weis goes 7-6 again this year the decision to stay another year won’t be his to make.

It took Jackie Sherrill helping Mississippi State with just one practice before the NCAA began investigating the program.

More than once, Sherrill appeared to interact with and instruct players during the workout. That might have violated NCAA bylaw 11.7.2, which limits schools to one head coach, nine assistants and two graduate assistants working with players. Bylaw 11.7.1.1.1.4 allows for the use of consultants to train the staff, but that consultant can’t interact with players unless he is counted against the limit.

Dan Mullen’s story is Sherrill was brought in to coach the coaches. Beep, BEEP, BEEP! Oh I’m sorry that’s our bullshit detector going off. Come on Mullen, Sherrill may have been MSU’s most successful coach, but in the end he did more damage than good for the program. Keep him away.

The Clemson starting quarterback job looks to be in doubt for Willy Korn, because  Kyle Parker tore up the Clemson spring game. Korn’s followers at http://www.willykorn.org/ are sad.

The redshirt freshman completed 13 of 21 passes for 171 yards and a touchdown, running for 27 yards and another score while leading the White team to a 30-13 whipping of its Orange counterpart in the Tigers’ annual Orange and White game.

Parker’s day of excellence didn’t end there. He’s also plays outfield for the Tiger’s baseball team. He went 2-4 with a home run against Miami.
