Kyle King looks at the Top 10 for next season. I think he has LSU too high, but I'm in no position to argue as I haven't put pen to paper in development of my own Top 10 yet.
Goldtimer snags a classic ND fan quote about humility and offers a response.
Pepidemiology, the science and study of Pep in college football, was explored in detail last year by Orson Swindle at EverydayShouldBeSaturday.com. While Orson is out, the guest bloggers have run some "greatest hits." Stranko brought the Pepidemiology articles back to our attention with:Lastly, ToonDawg at the Anti-Orange page has worked out a deal to pick up the content from the old DawgTreasures web site. Dawg Treasures hosted some classic posts and emails that have circulated the Dawgernets for years. More importantly, it was the holding place for Bulldog Hotline reports where JimFromDuluth would transcribe the high points of the Munson/Richt weekly call-in show. ToonDawg is in the process of moving all that content over to her site.

What is the deal with Houston Nutt in that picture? He looks like he just enrolled in the Special Ed division of the Hogwarts School. Does he think that by casting spells on opposing defenses, he'll be able to protect Mitch Mustain from Lord Voldemort, errrr, Quentin Moses?
Perhaps Houston is trying to emulate the success of the Point and Stare Method introduced to the SEC by the coach of the defending SEC and national champion Florida Gators. What's that you say? Florida finished third in the East, despite pointing that would have earned a Best in Show at Westminster, and a stare that would have made South Carolina football players give back things they didnt even steal? Oh. Well, scratch that theory. Houston can go 7-4 without pointing or staring.
My personal conclusion is that Houston is performing a one man tribute show to the immortal Ted Lange, whose most famous role was Isaac, Your Love Boat Bartender. No one, and I mean NO ONE, could pull off the two handed finger gun and devilish grin like Isaac. If Love Boat had been on Showtime late at night, America would no doubt have seen Isaac was getting more ass than a toilet seat. But, it was the late 60s, and America was a different place with much more rigid rules then.
Personally, I'm just glad Houston decided to honor Ted Lange. Imagine the humiliation if he'd chosen Jimmie "JJ" Walker and spent the fall clapping his hands together and yelling "Dyn-no-MIIIIIIIIIIITE" every time the Hogs made a good play. The horror, the horror...as if those pig head hats weren't ignominy enough.
Your honor, if it pleases the court. I would like to submit to the blogosphere that Nutt is not using the 2 handed double gun salute.
He's going with the ultra rare "Pistol and Pound." Rarely photographed, the Pistol and Pound combines a 1 handed point with a balled fist.
Rare. Majestic. Poweful.
In a word: "Nutty"
Hmmm. Upon further review, it appears I may have, ummm, "jumped the gun" on that call.
While I believe that's where Houston was going, a close examination shows he hasnt gotten there yet in the picture.
Maybe he's not an ambi-pointer. If so, no wonder Arkansas hasnt won an SEC under his tutelage. I bet Mark Richt can point with either hand.
"I bet Mark Richt can point with either hand."
Well, so can Nutt. Just not at the same time.
