What a moron.

Yeah, I'm a little surprised that he would have said that.  He hasn't usually been the type to jump on unsubstantiated rumors and spread them.  Who knows...maybe the core of the rumor is still true and it was simply decided that they will wait until the end of the season.

Anyone find it odd that Augsburg is only receiving 1 vote in the D3 pole(ranked 42nd)? They're receiving more votes in the AFCA(ranked 32nd). The Cobbers are ranked 21st in the AFCA, and recieving votes with D3(rankted 28th).

I realize it didn't help either of them that BU lost in a big way; but you'd think the Auggies would be getting a little more love.

I'm just happy that BU played Augsburg early. They seem to be getting much better every week.

The winner of this weeks game should get a good jump in the polls.

It's not always useful to just compare vote numbers since the two poll panels are of different sizes. Most schools will receive more votes in the AFCA poll because there are more votes cast.

Pat,

When are the first set of regional rankings going to be published?

Ok, I'll admit it. I tuned in the WNBA Finals the other night. A Minnesota team defending a championship doesn't happen very often.

Before you crucify me for admitting this, remember I have a keen eye for blondes. As I watched the game, I noticed this player for the Indiana Fever:



And like Lisa, Erin Phillips is an Aussie. Oz you must live in heaven. 

[USTBench]

BDB,

That Aussie's fanny has seemingly stopped this board cold. Um...Augsburg/Concordia could be a close one, Auggies have a good QB, uh...Erin Phillips' fanny! Crap.

Paging Oz .... Doesn't fanny have a different definition down under?

If it means "hat" I can get on board with that. Pretty sure it means "butt" in Indiana though. Semantics aside, if it belongs to Erin Phillips, I'll wear either of them on my head.

What do you mean when you say "down under?" 

[retagent]

I think we've taken a dangerous turn here.

[USTBench]

No one needs safety when talking about rocking cabooses, you guys.

[tommiegun]

@USTBench.  Simply amazing, per usual.

Off to cold one city.  When your having a guy to guy about carnal passions with some aussie babe, there's no need to get caught up in wordplay.  Better to just pound out power move after power move.

[tommiegun]

Australia's basically America, you guys.

[tommiegun]

Just without the Seger, so basically not America at all.  USA! USA! you guys.
