Remember, Penn State vs UCF kicks off at 8:30 Eastern. For the west coast, this means you can justify drinking as early as...well I'm pretty sure you could just keep going from Friday night without stopping.

There's a parking garage right behind it that you can access from a road that isn't being worked on. I had to fight the guy in there to get a to-go box. That was an odd night. Good was pretty good, although I'm not a fan of sauerkraut in general.

Tampa dropped right before the split happened and it turns out that Boston University was never a IA team. Aside from Pacific, those were the only ones I even knew off the top of my head that dropped football at any recent point.

I'm bothered by people that think they'll lift PSU's bowl ban. Unless they do it, like, tomorrow, I don't think it's going to happen this season. I assume they have to announce that kind of thing before the season starts. Oh look: quote:UCF's season opener in Ireland next week against Penn State may be in peril because of a possible volcanic eruption in Iceland. Clearly the NCAA is using its volcano machine to prevent the not-bowl from happening!

Everyone in my family, in my generation, was born in a different city. In order to prevent confusion, everyone got things with their "home team" on it. So I got Redskins and Orioles. Except Pens. Everyone got Pens. College sports didn't exist.

chaoslord posted:Go tell that to all these people down here that love the Confederate flag and do the whole "The South will rise again" thing. They aren't celebrating people who lost a battle, they're celebrating losing an entire war. I do make fun of them. I drive by a statue of a Confederate soldier (which is facing south so his back is turned on the North) that says "They died in the consciousness of duty faithfully performed" on it. Until a few months ago, my town had a law that new north-south streets had to be named after Confederate generals. Then go read the lyrics to Virginia's semi-official state song and make this face  Some people just don't know when they're beat.Although I shouldn't talk. We challenged the British to a rematch over a War of 1812 incident.

gently caress ESPN for making me defend Michigan, but they sold 99% of their tickets. They make it out like the place is going to be as empty as an NFL Europe game. Also I want to hang myself after reading the comments with SEC people being like OF COURSE NO ONE WANTS TO GO THE WEATHER SUCKS like people that lived in Michigan even bat an eye at those blistering cold 50 degree days.
