Frankly despite rivalries being necessary for competitive sports, the vitriol between a minority of us is kinda lovely and detracts from the whole thing. i dont need your crocodile manners you fake army motherfucker come correct or dont come at all

It was either at WW2 or Vietnam thing of "Aggies to go war, Longhorns sip tea at home". Also Oregon sucks this year. We might not get past 2 wins.

Nah, can't be, because they agree with your Pumphrey number. Grittybeard fucked around with this message at 17:43 on Oct 22, 2016 |

I suppose for super old games there might not be accurate records, but hell for anyone actually up toward the top of career leader lists that shouldn't be an issue.

I realize that a lot of people aren't gonna recognize the record as legitimate and everything but the fact that Pumphrey is so close and could actually do it makes me not care

Random question, but: Is there a more nondescript team in college football than North Carolina State? All that's missing is their nickname being the Wildcats, instead of the Wolfpack.

All that's missing is their nickname being the Wildcats, instead of the Wolfpack. They weren't always. There was a time when Chuck Amato was standing on the sideline, pectorals fully pumped, sun gleaming off his Oakley Blades while they were beating the brakes off early-aughts FSU and driving Jeff Bowden into an antidepressant-fueled obesity.

Always getting between 5 and 8 wins to finish middle of the table in a middling conference. State school with average academics. Some good NFL players but not a ton. No really notable traditions or fan quirks. And the basketball program is the same save for the '83 miracle championship.
