I really don't think so.  The Big8 and SWC may try to combine

You forgot about IowaSt and Missouri from the Big8.  The Big10
would probably love to get Mizzou since there is a rival with
them and Ill.  The SWC and Big8 would probably want to keep ISU
for the sake of exposure to the state of Iowa.

Ok, lets try this again.  I messed up the first one, sorry for the

I'm here at friendly Marshall University looking over all the net news about my
favorite college sport and what do I see---but a fellow SOUTHERN CONFERENCE
person...     Not only a SC fan BUT a fellow Alumni of the most consistant
athletic programs (male & female) in the conference--Appalachian State!

          I consider myself to be a tried and true SouCon fan.  I started out
as an undergrad at East Tennessee State (terrible football, great BB), went to
graduate school at Appalachian State (have a child by one of the former Jacobs
Blocking Trophy winners---my man!ex-man that is),  worked professionally at
UT-Chattanooga in the residence life area and babysat the football team for two
years and now I'm here at MARSHALL--lovin' the prospect of a national

Possible, but what I think is that every school in the midwest has a ND
rooting requirement.  That is, everyone who goes to any school in the
midwest has to earn 2 credits of ND woofing.  The only exception to this
rule is Big Ten teams that have a respectable team once every 10 or so
years (so Ohio State sneaks in).  This guy was just taking an
inter-session course (very intensive, incoherent ND woofing)...

I'm not certain I agree with the idea that the opinion of fans, however
knowledgeable they may be, should be used as a benchmark.  Take a look at the
fan balloting for major league baseball and the NBA, and it's easy to see that
fan opinions can often be as idiotic as media opinions.

On another, but related note, I think we sometimes conveniently forget in this
forum that the same prejudices that are obvious in the media are also present
here.  The representation in this newgroup is nowhere near representative of
the totality of college football fans.

Just my philosophical rantings before I take my last final. :^)

As for Desmond, he had ONE reception against Washington in the Rose Bowl, and
Mario Bailey was striking the pose after each of his two TD's.  
Detmer, as I recall, had a game the day he got the trophy, after the ceremony in
NY.  He was live via sattellite from Hawaii, where he threw 4 INT's before
injuring his shoulder for BYU.

West to East (I think this is a LOT tougher):

Eugene
Corvallis
Los Angeles
Pasadena
Pullman
Tuscon

Hi! I'm also from Marshall, and new to the net.  I must admit that I did
post one "woofer" last week, but I got a little scared in the first 
quarter, so I'll stick to all positive comments about this Saturday's game.

I'll admit....I AM FIRED UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the drama goes without saying, after what I have heard about
last year's fourth quarter, this rematch should be quite a battle.  I think
Marshall is ready, and the game is already sold out, so the place should be
rocking.  I would like to respond to what I have heard about the Marshall crowd
size.  I have been to all of the playoff games, and I think someone is holding
back.  On the Saturday after Thanksgiving, I'll admit the crowd was smaller
than I've seen this season, but there were more than 14,000 there.  And
this past weekend, there were only four small sections that looked a little
barren.  If the place holds 29,000, there were easily over 20,000 there
Saturday.  Someone's holding back somewhere.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to Saturday.  My cohort (HOU026) and I will 
be cheering loudly.

I don't know why, although I certainly remember it being used as a measuring 
stick back in 1989 when Tony Rice of Notre Dame was being touted as "Heisman
material" by the sportscasters (esp. Musburger, Beano, et. al) because "he 
has led his team to an undefeated record".  All this talk was going on while 
he was having average to above- average stats for a QB that year (nowhere 
near to Andre Ware's numbers).  

Fortunately, when Notre Dame finally lost a game that season in 1989 (they 
were defending National Champs from 1988 which is where all of Rice's heisman
talk originated), Rice's Heisman chances went down the tubes.

I'm for that.  Which is why I question why Toretta won the award.  I could
buy it if people said they voted for him because he was the best player
rather than idiots like Lee Corso saying Toretta should get it because Miami
is undefeated.  Hell, if that's how this award is determined, let Toretta
and Alabama's and Texas A&M's QBs all share the award.

What a bold prediction! You select an eight point favorite to
win by fourteen! 


KS>> You heard it here first, folks.

I can't imagine that nobody else has yet predicted Miami to beat 
Alabama, but I'll take your word for it if you say so.

I think your 14 point pick is about right ...that is I like Alabama to 
win by three. That would make your prediction as accurate as your 
taking Iowa to beat NC State by 7.


Alabama 19 Miami 16.

NBC hyped their Heisman award show by the phrase, 
"The tradition continues".   I agree that at least part of the Heisman
tradition will continue New Year's night. The recent custom of the Heisman
winner's team losing their bowl game.

Yr of
award   * Heisman winner playing for the pre-bowl #1 ranked team

1992:   Toretta to lose to Alabama
1991:   Howard 14 Washington 34  
1990:   Detmer 14 Texas A&M 62
1989:   Under Ware on probation (lost in a bowl the previous year)
1988:   Sanders 62 Wyoming 14 (The exception to the rule)
1987:   Brown not enough(7?) Texas A&M a lot. (35?)
1986:   *Vinny 10 Penn St. 14
1985:   Bo not much offense (10?) Texas A&M a whole bunch (35?)
1984:   Flutie edges someone (SMU?)
1983:   *Rozier 30 Miami 31
1982:   *Walker 23 Penn State 27 

Last ten years:  Heisman winner 2-7 in bowl games. Heisman winners
playing for number ranked teams are 0-3 in the same time period despite
two being very solid favorites to lead their teams to the MNC.
(Rozier's Nebraska was favored by 14 in the Orange bowl, and Testaverde
and Co. was a 6 point favorite over Penn State.

The Dallas Morning News reported this morning that the Texas A&M football

allegedly has made payements of $400 twice a month to five football players.  
The payments were for services rendered as maintainace workers at HUD funded 
housing projects.

If true, the allegations could spell prison for the booster (Uncle Sam doesn't 
take kindly to being bilked by non-congress types) and could subject the A&M 
football squad to the NCAA "death penalty."

I hope for A&M's sake it all blows over.
