Matt Yoder is my new hero........the concept of "whatever happened to Cinderellas?" is so right on....In the NCAA where basketball and every other freaking sport under the sun, has an actual PLAYOFF to determine the champion, Butler and similiar Cindies are the annual rage. What is with these BCS defenders? Why not blast these bloated greedy pigs for not allowing teams to earn their way into an actual national championship--Loyola and Texas Western did it--Butler almost did and other so called mid-majors have scared the pants off (or in some cases--beat the pants off) their older brothers many times..........

ita all about greed. If in the next 15 years you look back at the teams in the BCS Championship Game, I suspect it will consist of the same 6 or 7 teams. (95 % of D1 teams have no chance to get into thet game. They are trying to make it like the NCAA basketball tourney and it just does not work.

Sorry, who is Jeff Van Gundy?

They don't wine in March because all the top rated teams don't get excluded if a Cinderella team gets in... It's all about the big teams Benjamin's....

Always hated that dude. Worse announcer ever.

I whole heartedly agree.

Does Van Gundy know ANYTHING about college football?

I won't even click on the link as it increases the "hits". Besides, who cares what he has to say?

NIU is at the Orange Bowl; stop whining and live with it, geeks.

Except that in this case the hits would be going for a website that is defending us.

Oh, sorry. When I read about a "rant" against us, I assumed that was the link.
At first I was a little torqued up about the idiots trashing us, but now I am kind of enjoying it. It's exposed these people for what they are and will only make winning that much more "in-their-face."

However we do, I'm proud of this team, again doing it "the hard way".

I see he knows nothing about eyeglass fashion.
