Tedford couldn't get another NFL-caliber QB after Rodgers even though that was what he was known for (Harington, Boller, and Rodgers).
One of those things is not like the others. Yes only Rodgers has proved himself to be an "elite" QB but the other two were first round picks so Cal should've been a magnet for top-notch college QBs but for some reason they went to other places, like Stanford  Edit: added quote cause new page

So the NCAA is investigating Auburn over the recruitment tactics of assistant coaches Trooper Taylor and Curtis Looper. Okay, seriously? The NCAA is going to let Cam Newton go by unpunished and then even bother to investigate Auburn for anything? With their history with recruiting and shadiness the NCAA should really shut them down if they would like to even retain a shred of credibility (but we all know they don't give a shit). Robinson's 2012 Dodge Challenger, which is painted with blue and orange stripes and has a big Auburn sticker in the rear window, also raised a red flag for NCAA officials.

Ya know, losing to ASU wouldn't be so bad if: A) our QB didn't play like he had gambling debts. B) My fucking ASU relatives would stop fucking texting me about it. ASU fans are cancer.
FFS, I basically just told my sister take a flying leap on Facebook. Christmas may be awkward, but GOD. SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Well, tonight Reggie Dunn of the Utes had his FOURTH 100 yard kick-off return THIS SEASON. No one else has more than three in their entire career. Dude is unreal. Crazy thing is he won't even qualify for season-based records for returns because he has so few as he didn't return kicks for the first half of the season and then teams (understandably) started refusing to kick to the guy.

Yay Buckeyes. 12-0. Woo.
How bad is the Big 10? OSU just ran the table after moving their starting fullback to middle linebacker in the middle of the season.

You guys would do very well to throw a shitton of money at Chris Petersen. He's a west coast guy and with all your recent upgrades he would be silly not to take the opportunity. Hell, I'm surprised that Stanford and Cal haven't been competitive in football to a high level. Who wouldn't want to spend four years of college in the San Francisco area?

The academic standards at Stanford and Cal are a wee bit higher than almost all the other FBS teams out there, even for athletes.

That doesn't account for their general level of putrid in the quite tame PAC.

God what a shittastic weekend for sports. Huskies hand the Cougs the game Friday, the WHL T-Birds lose to their arch-rivals 8-2 on Saturday (down 7-0 and no one fights? Really? At least pretend you care FFS- these fucking beers are $7.25 each!), then the crowning turd on the shit cake with the Seahawks finding new and uninteresting ways to give games away in the 4th quarter. Our defense just runs out of gas and they bend over hard.

This is worth reading. It's about an Alabama and LSU fan the last time the two teams played down in New Orleans.........and a good explanation of why you shouldn't get blackout drunk.

There are lots of funny things to do it that situation, but teabagging isn't one. Even drawing a dick on the guy's face and writing I love elephant cock would've been a wiser decision.
