They are getting pre-prepared for the Big East taking a combined 3 (or more) teams from them. And if those teams don't leave, they figure it gives them a shot at taking the B-East's BCS AQ slot.

if bill snyder permitted himself to be entertained outside football--that video tops his list

see if the genius pulls another one out this week

Michigan State beats Michigan. I,m still wonder how in the hell ND managed to melt down in the 4th quarter and lose to those clowns.

Glad to see UC beat the Lousyville shitbirds. Anybody who beats them is my favorite team.

Latest B-East rumor.

Houston, SMU, UCF all sports and Air Force, Boise State for football only.

Bleech.

17 basketball teams. 11 football teams. The worst of both worlds!

Meetings going down in Cincinnati, the new unofficial headquarters of B-East football... cuz everyone else is trying to get the fuck out of there.

At least with SMU in, I still have an excuse to visit my sister in Fort Worth.

Bleech? Isn't that some sorta anime shit?

Yes.

Keep anime off the football thread, numbnuts.

Temple is the back-up plan, Navy staying clear of the cluster fuckery.

Awesomesauce.

May as well add San Diego State and San Jose State so you can get into California too.

Isn't Awesomesauce a punk band?

Love is what makes the sauce so awesome.

I turned that crap off. Michigan left more receivers wide open than a little bit. It wasn't worth watching such shitfuckery going on, so I turned on the Wisky game to watch Wilson play.

Sorta surprised Florida is still in this.

As whack as the B-East expansion plan is... it oddly reminds me that UC has a sliver of hope. Just like SMU and Houston were barely mentioned at all as potential expansion targets (I think Houston and SMU were only brought up as potential targets in the penultimate round of rumors, Temple, ECU, and Navy were mentioned much more frequently in the last week or so) so UC has barely been mentioned as a target for expansion from any of the other conferences. They've only been ahead of USF on the depth chart of potential targets for the Big 12 should they expand. So maybe an 11th hour deal could keep them in a BCS conference once B-East football is raided for the last time and loses its AQ status.

The Bengals being 4-2 is wackier.

you know, I'm thinking we overvalued Palmer and Ochocinco. I mean I know they were falling off but the Bengals wouldn't be 4-2 right now with Palmer as QB

We debated that today at the game. I countered with Palmers last 3 games without T.O. or Ocho and instead, working with receivers like Simpson and Caldwell who were hungry and ran the plays as drawn up. I think Carson (had he had shoulder surgery in the lockseason ) would have done about the same had he bought what Marvin was selling.

That being said Im happy with Dalton. Very happy. Carson can go Fuck himself.

Detroits coach needs to grow another one like me. He looked like an ex girlfriend I dumped in high school.

Oh no you didn't!

Mook's consternation over the Big Metro pleases me.

I guess I should pay more attention, I didn't realize Cinci was the top ranked defense in the league.

I read it and I still don't believe it
