16. Very cool
I'm an athletic training major at my school so I can pretty much get on the sidelines at any game. But I don't have football this semester (I'm hoping next year)...I have women's soccer, so I get to travel with them. It's a pretty cool job

27. Are the Aggs Ready To Rise Again?
I wouldn't mind ya'll beating all those north teams and the other South teams (especially ou sucks). Just not the Horns.

I think it would be so great if every year the winner of the South (Hell, the national championship)
depended on which team won our game. And I would love for it to be back on Thanksgiving Day.

17. They have had awesome teams the past few years...
I believe that they won the last three games, whether at College Station or Lubbock. I haven't really followed any of the schedules for years, as I am usually too busy with teaching or writing to concentrate on the games without extreme guilt setting in quickly.

Had its good days. Nevertheless with tv money, something had to be done. Worst Baylor game that I ever saw in perso was the 1974 game in Waco. Texas was up 21-7 at half and the Bears came back to win an went on to the Cotton Bowl.

from.

Adding the Hurricanes made the ACC the best. Here's another couple reasons why the ACC is the superior conference, two teams in the top six in the espn/usa today poll, five in the top twenty five, six in the top 28.

65. Well here does this help?
The hurricanes could not find a touchdown with a map and compass.

The seminoles have a horrid coach who can not write a play if his life depended on it.

Virginia Tech has a felon for a quarterback.

Maryland got lucky the last few years.

Duke SUCKS, as well as NC State.

Georgia Tech plays second fiddle to Georgia.

North Carolina is like watching a preschool play day.

Clemson SUCKS TOO!!!

Wake forest should move to Conference USA.

79. I'm an ACC fan
but even I know that the SEC is by far the toughest conference in college football. The perennial greatness of the SEC is just too much. Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, South Carolina, LSU, Arkansas...Geez that's a deep conference.

I think that the addition of VA Tech and Miami probably make the ACC the second-toughest conference, dropping the Big 10 to 3 and the Big 12 to 4.

68. Seconded
Can't wait for September 18 vs. the Vols.

We'll beat the first two opponents like a rented mule. I think we have Middle Tennessee and E. Michigan before we go to Knoxville in Week 3.

69. LET'S GO HAWKS! LET'S GO HAWKS! LET'S GO HAWKS






WHAT'S THE WORD? FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!
The word is "Fight! Fight! Fight! for IOWA,
Let every loyal Iowan sing;
The word is "Fight! Fight! Fight! for IOWA,"
Until the walls and rafters ring (Go Hawks!)
Come on and cheer, cheer, cheer, for IOWA
Come on and cheer until you hear the final gun.
The word is "Fight! Fight! Fight! for IOWA,"
Until the game is won.

71. Unlike some Hawkeye fans
I don't hate Iowa State. Not at all. Heck I almost wish I'd have gone to school there. I hope they turn it around this year.

72. Good for you, you're one of the few non-ISU haters
Edited on Sun Aug-01-04 11:22 PM by tcfrogs
I'm in a split family, part Iowa, part ISU, part Drake. I didn't go to any of those, I got the hell out of Iowa! I'm always happy to see either Iowa or ISU do well.

Best! - tcfrogs (you can probably guess where I went to school based upon my DU name)

74. Ah yes the TCU Horned Frogs
I went to UNI for awhile. Really regretted it. It never was a place where I felt I was learning.

Sorry folks, but we're taking the Big XII this year. A great defense, speedy, tough running game, and a potential Heisman winner in QB Brad Smith. This is the year of the Tiger!
