College Football 2007-2008

Are the Wolverine fans in hiding now? I had to turn on the game to prove to myself the score was accurate. How can they be losing to Appalachian state? I mean it's not even a real state!!!

If you remember the old Dolly Parton TV commercials for the "cowboy-era" railroad outside Boone, NC, you might be amused to know that native Carolinians call App. State "UNC at Tweetsie." :p

It hasn't been even 24 hours, and me and my fellow Orange fans are no longer the most embarassed fans in college football :). And Wazzou seems to be moving the ball early on against Wisconsin, so the Big Ten might be down to you guys and just maybe Penn State.

Damn the second-string teams. UH could have had a 63-0 shutout.
Tell me about it. Boise played as deep as their 4th-string players. Only scored 7 points the second half and allowed a TD. :(
 

My alma mater, Furman University, is a I-AA school in the same conference as App State. We routinely get beat by them, though we play them tough and reached the national championship game a time or two.

Now I don't feel so bad about loosing to App State all those years. :)

Edit: One of my grad schools, Virginia, got beat by 20 by Wyoming. How does that happen?

Oh, I don't know about that. If it's so, it's simply because we've sucked for a few years now, and embarassment has faded to a lack of expectation. We got spanked in that game, and to add insult, we're the only Big East team that lost in Week 1.

Eh. The only other team in the conference that played a BCS conference team was UConn. And they played Duke. Myself, I'm not sure getting blown out by UW looks any worse than letting a I-AA team that's not particularly good stay within two touchdowns (like USF did).
