Private schools kicking butt early

Great start for the "little guys" of college football.

And, the column doesn't even mention TCU, Navy, Wake Forest, USC, Georgia Tech or Tulsa. Baylor is doing OK, too, even.

(We are running out of excuses).

That said, it's PROOF that it can be done. It's no longer isolated cases.

She looks like she needs a good keg tapping. Her's might be empty after that beer.

I already have. Her heretofore status as an intelligent attractive woman has come into question, as I can say that having anything to do with Ryan "Van Wilder" Reynolds seriously draws one's intelligence into question.

He was only listing programs that aren't mentioned in the article. Duke is. (Although Duke, now being finished with the James Madisons and Virginias of the world, may see our record take a beating as we face the Georgia Techs and Miamis, but we'll see.)

Before we get too critical of ourselves remember that there are BC$ Privates and Non-BC$ Privates. Northwestern, Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, Stanford, Baylor, Duke, USC, BC, Notre Dame, etc. are at the money trough. Makes a big difference. Honestly, leaving tradition aside, degrees at these schools will be worth more in the future, as is the value of our scholarship.

Degrees at these schools will be worth more because they are in the BCS?? I don't follow.

I took it to mean they would be worth more than a degree from some of the football factories.
When will I start feeling stimulated??
