I hate all this fucking gerrymandering.:cussing:
The geographies of this shit are starting to get ridiculous. I guess in some ways it makes sense though.
Whaddya say...Miami to the PAC 10 in the near future?
I think A&M wants a moneygrab first and foremost. A&M would automatically slide on the level of South Carolina, Arkansas in the Second Tier behind Bama, FL and LSU. There's a lot of mediocrity in the SEC at the moment too -- hi Georgia, Tennessee, Auburn, Ole Miss, Miss State, Vandy... A&M probably is confident they will stay ahead of these programs in the immediate
I think the Pac12 might have to offer Baylor an entry and give TTech the Heisman in order to squelch Baylor's lawsuit.... Baylor is a solid academic university and does have respectable athletic programs beyond football

It's not that big of a stretch. Texas A&M is still a southern school. It's not really east, but it's also not really west. Geographically, the SEC makes the most sense.
The Dallas Cowboys play in the NFC East, and the Indianapolis Colts play in the AFC south. :dunno:

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
The first fly in the ointment for A & M and the SEC....looks like Baylor won't sign the waiver guaranteeing that they won't take legal action if A & M leaves the conference:

They may not be the only one, either. Rumors on Houston talk radio today have Iowa St., Kansas, Kansas St. and Texas Tech as possibly refusing to sign the waiver as well. This could get really nasty if true.

Shit might get real!
Well I am an SEC fan, but I don't care one way or the other about A&M getting in... we shall see.
I'm looking forward to the Bama-PSU game this weekend. They played some great ones in the 70s and 80s, nice OOC rivalry, been to several when I was younger.

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
Arizona at Oklahoma St. (Cowboys may be the 2nd best team in the Big 12(9))
Missouri at Arizona St. (Forget the spread Mizzou will win this outright)
FAU at Michigan St. (Sparty-time in East Lansing)
Oregon St. at Wisconsin (Badgers are really good)
Iowa at Iowa St. (Hawkeyes prevail against in-state rivals)
Toledo at Ohio St. (Another cupcake for Bucks)
Mississippi St. at Auburn (I'm not drinking the MSU kool-aid....yet)
Rutgers at North Carolina (This will be close and tough)
Alabama at Penn St. (Close until 'Bama pulls away in the 4th)
Cincinnati at Tennessee (I'd pick the Bearkats if this wasn't a road game)
Nevada at Oregon (Ducks are pissed and the Wolfpack will pay the price)
Virginia Tech at East Carolina (This will be closer than you might think but Hokies are just too good)
TCU at Air Force (TCU needs an easier game than this to bounce back. Falcons win)
Stanford at Duke (Duke has no shot at all)
Purdue at Rice (Purdue looked awful last week. Owls eke out a home win....sorry Andro)
California at Colorado (Bears win in Boulder)
Hawai'i at Washington (Huskies win in a close one)
South Carolina at Georgia (How long until Mark Richt gets canned?)
BYU at Texas (Close game but 'Horns squeak out a win)
UTEP at SMU ('Stangs prevail at home against Miners)
New Mexico at Arkansas (Hogs win easily)
Virginia at Indiana (Hoosiers blow)
Fresno St. at Nebraska (This game will be closer than people think)
UAB at Florida (a blowout in the Swamp)
Ball St. at USF (Bulls roll)
Utah at USC (USC plays much better than last week)
Notre Dame at Michigan (Domers still in a funk after last week's debacle)
Boston College at UCF (Knights are really good, take out Eagles)
Northwestern St. at LSU (There will be blood)
San Jose St. at UCLA (Neuheisel dodges the axe for another week)

This is the one week of you year that I'm a fan of that school up north.
Actually, this may well be the toughest win for my Bucks in the non conference schedule.

BI....if you really think Toledo is going to be tougher for the Bucks than the Miami (and I DON'T mean Ohio) squad you face next week then I think you need to put the bong down for just a little while.

Fickle would need to fly in Rich Rod then let RR force an up tempo offense with a bunch of players who barely know the playbook.
OShUcks would easily have 5 turnovers and lose by 3 points.:bang:
Thanks amigo.
Being a Ducks fan equals eternal heartbreak.
At least this year the heartbreak came early :1orglaugh
This is true.
I had Miss State ranked #6 and Georgia ranked nowhere, so.... :thefinger
