No point watching the WF-Presbyterian game. It's clear the Demon Deacons are predestined to win.
If he can eke out 4 wins that would be a major accomplishment. I just checked their records. Holy Hell, they haven't had a winning season since I lived in New Hampshire.
I think the...
I'm confused... as near as I can tell, Holy Cross has been playing Division III football since the mid '90s.
:D
30 Conferences do it for the reasons I stated earilier: The great God Television.
Also, aren't you the guy who goes berserk over how everyone should use artificial turf? Can I safely assume...
Well, my deliberately absurd analogy did at least get your attention! :D
Are you going to stick with the "Everyone else is doing it" defense?

But they don't have an international airport.
Yale could use an international airport.
Wait a second.... Did Northeastern say Maryland could talk to him?
xlolx
No. In 2002 they went to Penn for the Harvard-Penn game.
Mr. Wojciechowski is wrong about the BCS. It works like a charm. His argument is completely off base because he writes it under the assumption that the BCS was intended to crown a "true" national...
If true, that would seem excessive.
I'm in favor of this rule:
If students rush the field during or after the game, they shall have their civil rights violated by police and security personnel...
