no problem tcdevil... I doubt many teams have ever had to play that many national championship coaches. Just imagine if we had to play Ohio State or USC in a national championship game. That would be 7.

Crazy.

tcdevil,

it's 6. you forgot erickson when he as at miami.

2008-07-03T07:56:00.000-04:00

nemov...its actually 5. AU didn't win in 2004....They should have played USC for the National Championship...But they didn't. Now, they did take a Hay ride and make up some NC rings for theirselves but they still didn't win the crystal football.

But Arky actually plays 5 coaches that won a NC also.. Like us.

Texas(brown)/Bama(saban)/UF(cryer)/SC(Spurrier)/LSU(miles)

Completely unrelated question... The Dawgs are going to play 6 coaches in these season that have won National Championships. Has that ever happened before?

"and so all this owuld do is make sure that the good teams had to play a hard schedule but the lesser-tier teams would just be more likely to play the part of Cinderella when the better teams fell. This is contrived drama, not actual "settling it on the field.""

I hate to break this to you but football IS "contrived drama." How is giving a football team a higher quality game to

2008-07-02T09:43:00.000-04:00

Like I said you can do it with pre-season rankings.

The point is, it forces teams ranked that have played a weak sch. to play somebody tough.

We aren't getting a playoff anytime soon or even a Plus-1. So either force ranked teams to play each other or get used to seeing teams with cupcake schs. slide through the year with 1-loss or unranked like Hawaii.

2008-07-01T20:12:00.000-04:00

People have already hit on part of the problem with having all the good teams from the year before play each other. If all the teams remain good from one year to the next, then you're actually 'punishing' them relative to the less-good teams by having them play such amazingly hard matchups. No good team should be afraid to play another good team, of course. But the reality is that there is no way

2008-07-01T19:37:00.000-04:00

I think the BSC (Big Crock of Stool)is a joke. Maybe these Mid majors should have there own Playoff system like 1 AA, DII and DIII. I see nothing wrong with it. Lets say the MAC, WAC, Mountain West, Sunbelt, and C-USA banded together to form there own NCAA sanctioned playoff system. So perhaps there should be further separation between competitive tiers. BCS as 1A, Mid-Majors as 1AA, and current

2008-07-01T18:23:00.000-04:00

IN the words of Lewis Grizzard, a great American, tell it all brother! Let's cut back on some of the "cream puff" games where a DI plays a DII (or even DIII) and get some games between REAL teams. Like TCDevilDawg said, can you imagine the first two weeks of the season with all top 10 teams playing each other?!! I('m getting wood just thinking of it!

Could be worse, looks like GT's CB Tarrant Choice wanted to touch as little more than a belly.

I agree with Amen Paul Anonymous - we don't need a playoff. The regular season is fantastic as it is and going Bowling is fun. People just need to accept that the whole 'who is number 1' thing will sometimes be subjective. C'est la vie!

In separate affidivats, it is alleged that Sturdivant and Anderson each "did intentionally make physical contact of an insulting nature with (the alleged victim), who he does not know, when he approached her and touched her stomach."

Amazing.

AMAZING INDEED. The ACC Police need to get a f*cking CLUE!

tcdevildawg,

Your idea is really silly. For one thing, college teams can take dramatic swings from year to year. So just because a team finished high in 2007 does not mean it starts out high in 2008.

Such a match up was once tried with the old Kick Off Classic. I recall games with 2 of the top finishers from the previous year and it was a bad game because both teams lost a

2008-07-01T11:31:00.000-04:00

Player arrests are getting to be a serious problem for the program. That's six this offseason. I don't know if they are all scholarship guys, but assuming they are, 6 out of 85 is 7%. That's a pretty high rate getting clipped for something - be it major or minor. With a president as "university image conscious" as Adams, this could be Richt's achilles heel in his eyes.

I'm not

2008-07-01T10:38:00.000-04:00

Anderson,Lemon and Strudivant (sp) need to get it together. Do they not realize that this team will be in the public eye until 30 August?

These guys need to have a personal handler. I am sure that there is more to it then what is being reported but thats two key offensive lineman and a defensive lineman. I am sure CMR is on top of these guys in the off season but what gives?

2008-07-01T09:48:00.000-04:00

Amen Paul. I am in the minority and am against a college football playoff. Games like WVU vs Pitt 07, USC vs UCLA 06, ect. would lose their luster if there was a playoff. I love college football because you feel like you got gut kicked everytime you lose no matter when that loss occures.

What I would really like to see is all BCS teams be required to play 2BCS non confernce games as

2008-07-01T09:45:00.000-04:00

tcdevildawg,

The reason you wouldn't want to do that is because it would be unfair to the good teams. You'd end up with some team who was ranked low early in the season that played a Big Ten schedule going undefeated while a UGA or LSU with one loss to USC or Missouri would be penalized. The NFL has this problem...the better you do in one season, the tougher they make your schedule in

2008-07-01T08:36:00.000-04:00

For once I agree. Why not take the first game of year and put last years #1 vs. the next highest team (not in their conference or already on their sch), last years #2 vs the next highest team (not in their conference or already on their sch),

For Example...last years top 10..

1 LSU
2 Georgia
3 USC
4 Missouri
5 Ohio State
6 West Virginia
