A Georgia man saying that there is a lot of incest in Kentucky is like Karakand telling me that UK is a basketball school.
I'd rather they played UCLA. In fact, I'd rather top tier schools not play pop warner schools at all, even though a lot of those are just pay the school to play, which is why so many of the smalls schools accept, knowing they will likely be embarassed.

What's the difference right now between Alabama and Auburn football? Do the math. The answer is 38,669.
That's how many more people showed up Saturday for the A-Day Game in Bryant-Denny Stadium than for the A-Day Game in Jordan-Hare.
In short, a record crowd for an Auburn spring game was dwarfed by the second-largest crowd for an Alabama spring game.
Paul Bryant, leaning against that great goalpost in the sky, just looked over at Ralph Jordan and growled, ''Don't your people take their football seriously down there?"
But the real dividing line between the Tide and Tigers isn't what their fans did last weekend. It's what their administrations did when both were presented with the opportunity to act like a major player on the national scene.
Alabama said yes. Twice.
Auburn said thanks but no thanks.
Auburn AD Jay Jacobs offered plenty of reasons why he turned down the chance to open the 2010 season against UCLA in what Atlanta Sports Council President Gary Stokan said would've been the Chick-fil-A College Kickoff in the Georgia Dome.
But Auburn has no excuse.
• A schedule that's already finished is no excuse.
It's admirable that Jacobs wants to change Auburn's rep for breaking contracts - remember downsizing Tommy Tuberville's debut from Florida State to Appalachian State? - but there's a right way and a wrong way to do it.
Virginia Tech had 12 games lined up for 2009, but when the chance to play Alabama in the Chick-fil-A College Kickoff came up, Tech rearranged its schedule. It pushed back a non-conference date with Cincinnati to another season and helped Cincinnati find a replacement for this year.
• A schedule that already includes one non-conference game against a BCS opponent is no excuse.
Yes, Auburn already has a 2010 home game lined up with Clemson.
Good for Auburn, but why stop there? Look at Virginia Tech's first four games this season: Alabama, Marshall, Nebraska and Miami.
• Losing the big payday of an eighth home game is no excuse.
Alabama played seven home games in 2008 and will again in 2009. How has that affected the bottom line?
The first thing I noticed Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium was the scoreboard in the south end zone. It was missing. In its place hung the business end of a crane, a tangible sign that another expansion is under way.
By the way, a school official said Alabama earned about $2 million for playing Clemson last year. That's not as much as Alabama or Auburn earns for a home game, but the intangible benefits - see recruiting - are priceless.
Jacobs' explanations for turning down the UCLA game don't carry the same weight as the arguments in favor of playing the Bruins next season rather than waiting until 2012 or 2013, as the AD suggested.
It would give the Auburn players extra motivation throughout the offseason. Ask the Alabama players what that edge did for them last year.
It would put Auburn in the spotlight, and let's face it. Auburn has to go the extra mile to earn national respect. It's not many miles to Atlanta, which offered a national stage in a home-away-from-home setting.
It would be one more counter to the flawed but persistent argument that a weak non-conference schedule kept the undefeated 2004 Auburn team out of the BCS championship game.
Preseason No. 1 and No. 2 teams that never lost kept Auburn out of that game, but the Tigers have done a good job since that snub of lining up better non-conference foes.
Why not try to build a reputation as a team unafraid to play anyone anywhere at any time?
Instead, Auburn will open the 2010 season against Arkansas State. No one outside the states of Alabama and Arkansas will notice.

My dad said he saw Rich Rod at Sam's Club yesterday. Apparently no one recognized him but my dad. smh
Mavs
Stars
Rangers
Broncos
Longhorns
Mean Green
Denver is the only really weird one considering I live in North Texas.
This just gives Urban reason to run the score up on Tennessee this year.
The Cards under Krapthorpe are going to go about 3-9 this year. I'll be there though to bring the pain to our POS coach's final year.

Although, to be fair, you guys have won 1 BCS title in the last ten years.

Um, what?
Cincinnati lost to Virginia Tech in the Orange Bowl last year.
Before that 2007 West Virginia beat the Big 12 champ Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl, 2006 Louisville beat the ACC champ Wake Forest in the Orange Bowl, and 2005 West Virginia beat SEC champion Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. That's 3 BCS game wins in 4 years against 3 of the major 5 other conferences. The only ones that can be played with the Rose Bowl tie in to the PAC 10 and Big 10.

Yeah, great reasoning there. If thats the case, maybe the Sun Belt champion should be winning BCS games then.
Yeah it really is a good reasoning. Same reason USC is strong every year. They steamroll through their conf kind of like the only two decent teams the Big Yeast has ever had.
Last time I checked, Kentucky has been in the top ten much more recently than Louisville. They also beat a number one team much more recently than Louisville.

UK hasn't finished in the top 25 since 1984. That's 25 years. And even in the shit Kragthorpe era, UK has only managed to win a whopping one more regular season game each of the past two years. Keep living vicariously through your conference.

Yup thats it. The "tough" SEC wears the SEC teams down so much that its so tough to wins games - over a month later when the bowl game actually begins. Oh, and I guess they're wore down too from the previous year when they play uninspired non conference opponents before the conference season even starts and the bottom half of their conference struggles with complete crap non conference opponents.

Well I can see how winning a Sugar Bowl or a Peach Bowl even would be like a national title for a Big East team, but for Florida, it's just another game on a random Tuesday.
No loss of scholarship is basically your mom telling you to never do it again.
But, they don't turn into losses, and the other teams can't count them as wins.
For as inane a "violation" as textbooks that no one profited off of, it shouldn't hurt the future of the program. The AD just needs to become future tellers (apparently) to keep any possible thing from happening. Until this, I never realized this kind of thing was a penalty.
Next thing you find out, visiting EB will be a Secondary Violation.
