    Only after he makes the argument that the Gators got to play Ohio State on a neutral field while reminding us that Michigan lost by only three points in Columbus.

    I'll worry about that if the time comes.

    In case anybody's wondering (Dyepack seems not to be, he can be concerned with such things) Florida's opponents are now 4-1 in bowl games. Michigan's? If my count is right, 1-3.

    Yes, it is - burned in a barn fire when he was a kid. Many operations, etc.
    Beamer's team gagged big-time last night, real-big game. Hoops has a point. Tech probably was the best in the ACC at the end of the season. Not a good league this season.
    The second half of that game is jokeworthy. I'm not sure a burn scar is, however. Maybe that's just me.

    No, it's not. If you're going to pick on a coach, find one more worthy of the snark than Frank Beamer. Yeah, gagging against Georgia didn't tickle me, either, but Virginia Tech will be fine.

    Well, of course I go ahead and say that and <a href=http://www.sportsjournalists.com/forum/threads/35765/>look what happened to Mason.</a>

    I thought it was a goiter. Hadn't heard the barn fire angle. I know one thing, though, VaTech completely wilted after the on-side kick, and for all the assertions of what the Hokie defense would do to Stafford (who made a bad throw on the pick and could sue his receivers for nonsupport), UGA's d completely flummoxed Glennon.

    Good to see the Canes can still beat someone, even if it's Nevada 21-20 when they need a late pick to escape. On the Smurf Turf, no less.

    Don't forget Nevada's failed 2-point conversion. Otherwise that game's in OT.

    Actually, wouldn't that have won it for the Pack? An extra point and the game's in overtime. Just goes with a basic philosophy I would always follow as a coach -- never chase points early, only late.

    Yea, they would have won it. I meant to post something about an extra point and then OT, but I'm a dumb blonde, ya know :p

    I was wondering who the first fool would be who would try to connect the Big 10's lower echelon buffoonery to some sort of "proof" that Florida is not a fraud.
