Do you know the way to San Jose?

San Jose State University has now dumped two schools it scheduled to play in 2010 in favor of two others willing to pay a bunch more money.

A million dollars from ‘Bama and $900K from Wisconsin – there’s gold in them there cupcakes.

    The gold adds up too – even if we go low on the average amount paid to cupcakes, (say $500,000 per game), that’s still over $25 million that the BCS teams paid to I-AA teams in 2008 alone.

    Thanks a lot, Senator…now I’m going to have that God-awful song stuck in my head the rest of the day.

    SJSU has a warm spot in my heart as I once took them to national prominence during a run on “EA Sports NCAA football 2005.” Good times. The chants still ring true: SJSU! SJSU! SJSU!
