Forget Oregon … 15 Laterals?
Uncategorized October 28th. 2007, 10:17amQuick word about college football, though we’ll have much more on Monday – why is the Gameday crew on Oregon’s stick because it beat a struggling USC team at home? We saw most of this game, and yes, Dixon looked good, and Stewart looked even better … but these Trojans haven’t been the same since the Stanford stunner. Anyway, victories by Oregon and Arizona State and Ohio State are swell, but nothing that happened Saturday comes close to the Mississippi Miracle. Wizard of Odds has scored the video, and here’s some text to help you locate Trinity and Millsaps (yes, that’s the actual name of the school) on a map and wow your friends.

That’s pretty cool. At some point wouldn’t you just taclke every player on the field if you’re on defense.

Yeah. It looked like Millsaps just gave up at the end there.

lol. That was stupid. That looked like a game in the backyard.

I bet a lot of Trinity fans in San Antonio go to church this morning and put a little something extra in the collection plate, because that was most definitely “a prayer answered”.

I love D-III football. In fact the championship game, the Stagg Bowl, is played in my neck of the woods, in Salem, VA(just 30 miles northeast of Blacksburg). Yeah, the BCS teams play what Shrutebag calls “big boy football”, but give me Mount Union vs. Rowan or Alfred(my parents’ alma mater; currently 7-1) any Saturday.

It was like a game of hot potato!

Millsaps, incidentally, is coached by former Alabama coach Mike DuBose.

Nice top banner ads now TBL….how does the revenue sharing between you and Wordpress work in terms of online advertising? I assume they must get a bunch since they give you all the infrastructure to maintain your site…..

I get enough to buy soap and toothpaste. Wordpress is worth billions, so you can do the math …

I hate to see you be wrong about something, TBL. The word “lateral” doesn’t actually exist in any official rules of football. It is a made up word used by lazy talking heads and journalist. 15 “backwards passes” would be correct by the letter of the law.

USC hasn’t been the same the entire season, not since the Stanford game.
