Things I think I think

1. Questions that bother me so ...

Am I the only one who looks at Bob Stoops, then looks at Mike Leach and thinks "Mr. No Personality Stoops had the eccentric Leach on his staff? Really!?!



Who came up with this "head coach in waiting" thing? At some point, will colleges expand the program to head coach in waiting in waiting? After all, if lining up the next coach before the current one retires is good, then wouldn't lining up the next next coach be good as well?

Surfing the blogosphere, I'm constantly amazed at the cyber-drooling done over Erin Andrews. Sure, she's cute. But she's no Melissa Stark. And whatever happened to Jill Arrington anyway?

If LSU had lost to Troy, would The White Cap have been canned? And would any Bayou Bengal fan been upset if he was?

ESPN has the BCS starting in a couple of years ... does this mean more or less Dr. Lou segments on College Gameday? And will I be the only one picketing The Worldwide Leader's HQ if Ron Franklin doesn't get to call one of the BCS games?


2. LSU and Ole Miss might play for the dumbest-looking football trophy ever. It looks like something a Mississippi beauty queen would get along with her crown ...



I never thought I'd see a trophy that makes the Golden Boot look like a good idea. Thanks for proving me wrong Magnolia Trophy.

3. Speaking of ugly ...



Somewhere, the person who designed the Apex jerseys for Arkansas with the Hogs on the shoulders is smiling.


4. What they were really thinking ...



FIVE! Five-dollar footlongs!


5. Link-a-riffic!

Magic 8 Ball

The Arkansas at MSU game is a "pick 'em" according to the sharpies in Las Vegas. So the question is simple ... Will Arkansas beat MSU this week?

Amen to Ron Franklin! I love Brent Musberger and think he is the best in the business. He can make any game sound like the national championship. But ever since ESPN dropped Sunday-night NFL and brought Mike Patrick to college football, Ron Franklin has gotten lost in the shuffle. And he will always be Mr. Saturday Night to me.
