RE: Orlando Sentinel's Preseason College FB Countdown
Anything's possible, but I sure wouldn't take the bet that EMU would be better than CMU. Not without some decent odds.

The Akron (#99) @ EMU (#101) should be a great contest. Lol.
Two evenly matched teams playing on gray turf...

RE: Orlando Sentinel's Preseason College FB Countdown
I drove by Yypsi twice today. I commented to my wife, as we hit the city limits. Everything was suddenly shabbier and older, more grey. Sad. She agreed. It's been a long long time since I've seen the campus. What's it like?

Their ashtray-looking turf is perfect.

They call it the Factory. At practice time, it's called reporting for your shift. A very strange affect.

Ehh, not really -- it reflects the city itself, as you pointed out:

They are embracing their heritage. Kind of like vines around colleges in Boston. Kind of like a fat girl who can't get a date ("Yeah, I'm fat! So? I'm proud of it! You want to love me, you gotta love ALL of me!") Gotta give them credit -- they're embracing it. You go girl!

UMass better than Indy AND Vandy? Interesting. I think UMass will be better -- they are on their way up. But interesting. I guess it's more that I wouldn't put Indy & Vandy so low. UMass is about where they should assumed to be.
