How can Miami incorporate hookers and Cristal into their uniforms???

 

[hunzworth]

Didnt really get a chance to watch much football this wkend (unfortunately my busiest 6wks of the year run from the last week in july through the first week in sept). I caught the VT game on DVR and got to watch Boise/Ga, TCU/Baylor, and parts of the mary/miami game last night.

Anyway i was wondering if some of you guys could give a break down of how the rest of the ACC looked. I heard Renner had a monster game for UNC, was that a bunch of screen passes or is he the real deal? What about FSU, how did they look? Really just wondering about the ACC as a whole and if there are any "surprise" teams or teams that really concern you guys.

Couldn't remember which thread we talked about Tech football on TV out West, but here is an article about just that! Hooray more national exposure (even if it is early in the morning there).

Paper work all day at work and then came home and did paper work all evening. If only there was a college game on tonight to make it all better...

Interesting thing at ESPN College Gameday today. Someone in the crowd has a flag pole with a FSU and VT flag flying from it. Wonder what the story is behind that one.

Way OT but Wes Welker is destroying everyone in my fantasy league. I grabbed him in the 5th or 6th round. Ultimate steal.

Did you know that Tech lost money from all three of our recent Orange Boal appearances?

Bowl Championship Series bowl trips costly for colleges

This article is a real indictment of how the individual bowls are making a killing at the expense of the teams that actually play the bowl games.

Didnt read the entire article but i knew this was somewhat of a problem, i remember hearing Beamer on the point after basically begging people to buy their tickets from the VT ticket office. At a glance it kinda makes VT look bad to not sell "their" tickets. In reality i bet 60-75% of the fans at those games were VT fans that bought tickets from a second hand source, but what is a fan to do when you can get better tickets at a cheaper price? <----Thats the prob imo!

FWIW i think the conferences should pay for travel expenses of the BCS team/s before deviding the $.
