Re: Attention Mountainer Fans

You guys had a GREAT year (exposed a fraud SEC def) but take it from a Mich fan,be careful about assuming a great freshman year (staton & white) translates into a great soph year.Henne and Hart's soph season were disappointing to say the least.Also it's one thing to come out of nowhere to becom...

I agree with what has been stated with respect to Notre Dame, the $1 million is $1 million more than they were getting before, so they aren't exactly losing out! Secondly, the $4.5 million is money they don't have to share with anyone, no it's not $14 million, like it was this year, but it's money ...

So, as much as I appreciate how the BCS 'crown's a national champion, it's still not what I would call a 'perfect' system. But it worked this year. It didn't "work" this year... it simply got lucky. I disagree. The BCS computers have no teeth to do anything. After goofing with the formula's every y...

Giving Notre Dame a million a year, if they don't make it in, does nothing to incourage them to join a conference. The only thing that would incourage Notre Dame to join a conference is to shut them out of the BCS completely. If ND is going to get a million the other D-1 independents should get it ...

what are the irish getting away with ???????????? obviously, the BCS covets notre dame. otherwise they wouldn't have restructured the deal. the BCS could just as easily say to notre dame either join a conference or your not allowed in. that's clearly not the case. the way i read this is the BCS wan...

The Associated Press (AP) should have been booted out of the selection and champion crowning process. :P The reason: They have a conflict of interest. :shock: Sportswriters should write about the happenings in college football and not be given the opportunity to determine what happens in college fo...

The first year of College Football I watched was 1980 and a Freshman running back named Walker.

Never looked back and rarely miss games, especially since 2001, and the Richt era.

The award is silly and ludicrous. No way to determine...Are you gonna get the '05 Texas team back together and play the 72 Cornhuskers??? Where the athletes as well conditioned then as they are now? Probably. None of the comparisons are valid. The whole gimmick was started so that ESPN could praise ...

I can safely and wholeheartedly say that Forde is COMPLETELY wrong about the Top 10. USC at #7 after losing all that talent??? Come on..... :roll: ESPN needs to get out of USC's lap. West Virginia will be an even better team, but win the National Championship they will not. IMO Florida aint gonna be...
