Just because it’s a bye week doesn’t mean there’s not plenty of stuff to serve up to you.
- “Blair Walsh’s 20 field goal tries are the most by any college kicker in the nation. That’s in any NCAA classification—FBS, FCS, Division II or Division III.”
- Will Muschamp has less experience winning in Jacksonville than Mark Richt does.
- 41 suspensions from a single game may not be a record, but it’s gotta be close to one.
- John Conyers wants the House Judiciary Committee to take a look a college athletics, in part because he’s “… concerned about the impact that conference realignment would have on lower-profile sports teams and smaller and independent universities – especially historically black colleges and universities.”
- LSU is going to don Nike Pro Combat gear for the Auburn game.
- If you’re looking for a mid-season assessment of Georgia from a bunch of bloggers including yours truly, there’s a roundtable for that.
- The NCAA is considering a bowl ban for schools which don’t hit a minimum APR standard, which could result in not having enough schools to fill all 35 bowl games. Yeah, that’s going to work out well.
- According to Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State practices less than 4 1/2 hours per week. Not per day, per week.
Get The Picture 
That’s why we’re Field Goal U. Although we may lose the title if we can’t actually make them.

Agreed. If I were a 17-yearold looking for a place to play, Gundy’s style would sound good to me.

Yeah, he might be on to how to suck every year. Ok State has done absolutely nothing to make me a believer in light practices. Ok. State begins each season overrated and falls apart by the end. Since Gundy has been Coach:
2005– 4–7 (1–7)
2006– 7–6 (3–5) — Independence Bowl vs. Alabama 34–31
2007– 7–6 (4–4) — Insight Bowl vs. Indiana 49–33
2008– 9–4 (5–3) — Holiday Bowl vs. Oregon 31–42 (L)
2009– 9–4 (6–2) — Cotton Bowl Classic vs. Ole Miss 21–7 (L)
2010– 11–2 (6–2) — Alamo Bowl vs. Arizona 36–10
Nothing to be proud of in that conference. In fact the team reminds me of UGA in the Willie Martinez years.

certainly would be interesting if they win out this year.
that would make the last 4:
9-4
9-4
11-2
undefeated and likely in the NC game.
i don’t think anyone would say that gundy was unimpressive in that case. honestly, oklahoma is likely the only game where we will see okie state as an underdog. and who knows? they could win. rivalries are weird like that.

Ok State started out 7-0 in 2008, 6-1 in 2009, and 6-0 in 2010. They will collapse as usual. “Win out”??? hahah. funny.

What would SEC’s Mike Slive do with that ASU – UCLA situation?
Saw on internet becuase it is better to watch this year’s WS, Cards & Rangers. Two very good games. Remember a former Dawgs is the bullpen coach for the Cards. Both team have outstanding bullpens and hitters.
