Imagine this conference schedule for football, Miami, FSU and Va Tech.

[Chris@OlympicSports]

Miami wasn't a top 15 school because they were on probation and could only give out 12 scholarships, but they rebuilt it back up quickly under Butch Davis

 

[Journeyman]

Not the whole time ....And they were on probation for a reason.

 

[killy]

what many of you guys are failing to realize is that schedules are often made up 10-12 years in advance.

 

[Chris@OlympicSports]

They were on probation because of Dennis Erickson

 

[Journeyman]

thank you Kengman,,,,even further back in some cases, although that seems to be changing in recent years...because of this very problem...Miami Hurricanes schedule use to be pretty lame too...

LOL I have nothing against or for any team in this, lol..

 

[SECprophet]

ACC = SEC 'wannabe's'......Never forget!

There will only be one TRUE conference: SEC 4-ever, baby!!!!!!



gl!

 

[ATX]

I'll let you guys piss all over yourselves for 2nd place...

BIGXII is the toughest conference. Every conference has their Baylor, but OU, UT, NEB, COL, KSU, ATM, OSU, ISU. Which one do you want to play at home? I'm not sure about Texas Tech this year, but ATM just got real good again. The strength of this conference will mean that a team with one loss can leapfrog an undefeated team for a title shot. It'll happen quite a few times.

Pac 10 is the best, what school has put the most players in the NFL? What school has the most heisman winners? USC and USC.

 

[ATX]

What school has the most Heisman trophy winners??

Are you kidding me?? That's gotta be the easiest sports trivia question ever asked!! Do you seriously think it's USC??

Why don't you stick to something you know about, like tennis?

oops, on second thought..

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

No way is the Big 12 the toughest conference. Some of those schools are the biggest non conference scheduling frauds in the nation!

 

[max1234]

Another trivia question... which school has the most Heisman winners convicted of murder?

Take your time and email your answers to Rail. He's putting up $500 for the winner.

 

[max1234]

Another trivia question:

Which conference had the most coaches and ex-coaches fired this spring for being idiots and liars?

Email your answers to Railbird. He's putting up $500 for the correct answer.

(Hint>>> Roll Tide, Roll)

Seymour,

I would venture to guess Tech has more players in the NFL then Cuse. I will look it up but to name a few Tech players.Andre Davis,M. Vick, Drakeford, Pyle,Beasley, Bruce Smith.

 

[Chris@OlympicSports]

Syracuse has more players in the NFL, greatest NFL player Jim Brown is a Syr alumni

 

[Seymour]

Did you ever hear of Jim Brown, Larry Zonka, Floyd Little, Joe Morris, Darryl Johnson, Art Monk. etc. - OK, they don't count because they are the traditon but you put Bruce Smith who played years ago at VT.

So for recent purposes - Marvin Harrison (the BEST receiver in the league), Quadry Ismail, Kevin Johnson (a stud), Freeney (will lead the league in sacks within 2 years), Morlon Greenwood (starts for one of the top defenses), T-Bucky Jones (maybe the best athlete in the NFL), Donovan Darius (maybe the most fear hitter in the league), Konrad (maybe the best receiving fullback), McNabb (one of the best PLAYERS in the league), Keither Bullock (the 3rd best LB in the league), Olindo Mare (one of the top kickers), Rolondo Williams, Will Allen (who the Giants love and consider one of the top cover CBs) + many players that play who I will not mention because they are not NFL stars such as James Mungro, Dave Wolabaugh, Dee Brown, etc., - Cuse may have some of the best talent in the NFL currently - their coach sucks - but to compare their NFL talent with VT is a joke.

A great list of Syracuse players...a bit exxagerated on where they rank in the NFL however,lol..I would agree way more Orange than Burgundy...ironically Michael Vick is probably the most athletic player in the league...

`Cuse has quite an impressive list, I agree the coach is horrible, always killing my play, always doing something that makes no sense..

 

[Seymour]

I forgot Rob Moore who led the league in receiving not long ago.

 

[Seymour]

I only ranked TWO players - Harrison and Bullock - if you know of a better or more productive receiver than Harrison let me know his name and if you know a better LB than Bullock who is not named Urlacher or Lewis let me know his name too.

 

[Seymour]

Pasqualoni is the WORST coach in the history of college football - it is amazing that he is allowed to keep his job.

 

[Journeyman]

Derrick Brooks, Lavar Arrington, Zach Thomas, Joey Porter, Peter Boulware.....WR Harrison is as good as anyone except maybe Owens...
