Sorry, Dave, disagree with you on that one. They should not make uniforms to please 40, 50, etc year old guys watching the game on tv while they're drinking their beer. Oregon's uniforms look sleek and fast, and guess what, their team is sleek and fast. The recruits they get are sleek and fast. I see a connection.

Unfortunately, you are correct, Ole. in D-I, It's not about being student athletes anymore. Now its about being winning athletes, the student part has been lost. That, to me, is the downside of the move to D-I. Welcome to the world of Ohio State, Miami and Southern Cal.

not much more time to move Mussman up on Appy's coach. Vote early. Vote often!

Very Nice FB-FAN! Love it! Agree about the Big Sky logo too. How about Silver pants and helmet to go with the black jerseys? gotta say the Oakland Raiders uniforms are nice, even though I'm a Packer backer

In the year I have been watching this board, I would have to refute your baseless post. Ira does not post to just see his words on the internet. When he posts, it is always well thought out and always well written insight from the perspective of a former player who knows the game. I, for one, would take his word as more gospel than that of Kolpack, Vandrovec or any other mouthpiece in mainstream media. He does not come on merely to bash the Bison faithful. Ira's posts are welcome anytime he has information to share. He gives many of us an insight into how an athlete thinks from the perspective of experience. Can you say the same?

Yes, they lost, as did Rodgers' Packers, Manning's Giants and half the teams in the NFL. On the other hand, the Broncos are still leading their division and looking like they may make the playoffs. No, its not pretty, and maybe this will be Tebow's only season as a starter, but his resolve and character speak volumes in the face of all the doubters... He has taken a team that was 1 - 3 before he played (coming in in the 3rd quarter of the 4th loss) and has them on the doorstep of the postseason.

Have to say I don't really think the arc'd NORTH DAKOTA at the Betty is all that great.... Much prefer the interlocking ND that they have on the helmets or the shoulders of the hockey jerseys

Say what you want about Tebow, his team now believes they can win. Going from 1-4 to 7-1 after changing from Orton to Tebow is quite a turnaround. No, its not all Tebow, but the quarterback is the team leader and the bottom line is the Broncos are now winning. The quarterback does not have to do it all by themselves, but they can be an inspiration for the team and its belief in themselves.

have to agree that some of the grammar and spelling on all boards and blogs reflects the wonderful educational system in place today. In many respects, its the same group that also wants to destroy the Fighting SIoux name that hail from Indianapolis, Madison, etc...

The difference between Sacramento State pulling their basketball and other Olympic sports out of the Big Sky and the admission of UC Davis and Cal Poly's football teams is that just that - Sac State is already in the Big Sky and would be pulling their other sports out of the conference. Will the Big Sky say "OK, take your other sports and leave your football team"? That is actually not a move forward for the conference like adding Davis and Poly football. Did they really set a precedent that applies to Sac State?

good piece by Rick Reilly on espn.com about why Alabama should not get a free pass to the national championship game... http://espn.go.com/e...-bcs-title-game

Faison should be looking for games for the first two weekends of September to replace SD Mines & Central Arkansas. another post on this board said Weber was already scheduled for those weeks though...

less than 300 votes to #11. bad news is that Mussman has about half the votes that #10 (Bohl) has. keep up the good work, Sioux fans! vote early. vote often.

just hit #13! vote early, vote often

Really, Cratter, the credit goes to you for the idea on that other thread that Darell should shut up on and let it go away. But thanks for the + rep!

Mussman is also among the top vote getters for the Liberty Mutual Coaching Excellence Award http://www.coachofth...bid=dkyuqzOpAdY

where is the "Start a New Thread" button on this new webpage?

so it sounds very quiet on the realignment front. two questions: who jumps first now that the football season is (nearly) finished? will this change in light of the possibility of auto qualifiers going away... are there any rumblings out of Missoula and Bozeman (as rumored by the Texas State board at the end of last summer) of the Montanas going FBS?

bump

keep up the good work folks! now in 15th, 1 vote ahead of Bethune-Cookman coach Brian Jenkins. Vote Early Vote Often

OK, here's a target --- 58 votes to #13! only 8 more to #15.

well said, Sica

not really a reform the BCS question, but what happens if Georgia beats LSU in the SEC title game? does LSU lose the opportunity to play for the national championship, while Alabama gets in without playing any more games?
