I'm not sure what the arguments are about. The SEC, Big Ten, Big 12 and Pac 10 are so far beyond every other conference in terms of talent it isn't worth discussing.

FIFY. It's not the Pac 12 just yet, big guy. The Big Ten will apparently always be the Big Ten, and full of Legends and Leaders or whatever fuckall stupid names they come up with for their divisions. Have they named the divisions yet for the new Pac 12? |

The Big 10 should have named their divisions, "The Slow," and "The White"

They have been very creative with the division names: north and south. North is washington, wsu, oregon, osu, stanford and cal. South is usc, ucla, arizona, asu, utah and colorado.

Shockingly logical. Perhaps they should send a memo to the Big Ten on how things are done. |

They really need to rename it 12-Pac to capture the true spirit of college.

It would be worse in this case, if the rookie wage scale isn't in place until 2012 he could be throwing away 40+ mil.

His dad is Oliver Luck, as shrewd a sports businessman as I've seen. I wouldn't worry too much about Andrew. |

If he was that shrewd, he would have realized that his son has a small chance of being injured during the next 1-2 years which may prove to be very significant when it comes to income potential.
If Luck played for anyone else I would applaud his decision, but since he plays for Stanford I'll hope he has an ACL injury.

That's why there are these magical things called Insurance policies. |

Yeah, but an insurance policy won't make up the entire difference, and it will cost money in the short and long run. It's a band aid, nothing more.

Here's the reasons I wouldn't go:
1 - You'd have to play for Carolina, and they have no O-line.
2 - The lockout means you may not play period. Anybody who tells you they are working this thing out is a damned liar.
3 - You'd have to play for the Panthers, and they spend money like a AAA baseball team.
4 - College life at Stanford does not suck. It's free blowjobs and candy with no responsibilities or media up your ass.
5 - Carolina?!?!?
6 - He's a consensus #1. He would literally have to trip over his own dick next season to lose that kind of money. He's not Locker.

Yeah also Bradford set a precedent of being injured and still getting that money and I'd say most people think Luck is a better QB and a more sure thing.

Apparently he's responding well to treatment, so we'll see. I'm hopeful he'll pull through. In other news,  for Texas A&M. Teh Hat strikes again. |

My theory is that after a month off, all the Alabama players will be fat and slow from too much southern holiday food and Oregon will run circles around them.

Oregon so Paelos will shut up This plus the whole NCAA bending over backwards to make sure Cam Newton is eligible thing. I fucking hate Oregon, but at least they aren't from the SEC and they have the common decency to suspend or terminate their cheaters and thugs. |

Auburn looks like they have found their groove and James only has 20 yards rushing. I'm not feeling good about the Ducks right now. I really hope they pick it up and beat the cheating bastards in the second half.
