Frederick Douglass WR Dane Key Paul Hornung Award Winner
Hard to disagree. I understand he is a great player, but his stats just don't stack up to some other players this year.

College Football Playoffs - Who figures to make it?
12/3 8pm #11 Oregon vs #17 Utah (Rose Bowl implications) 12/4 12pm #8 Baylor vs #7 Ok. St. (Potential CFP implications with an Ok. St. win) 12/4 4pm #1 Georgia vs #3 Alabama (Obvious CFP implications) 12/4 4pm #24 Houston vs #4 Cincinnati (CFP implications) 12/4 8pm #5 Michigan vs #16 Iowa (CFP implications) 12/4 8pm #17 Pitt vs #18 Wake (Orange Bowl implications) IMHO those are the games that matter and why.

Survivor 41
Didn't understand Ricard talking Shan into voting for Naseer, having her play her extra vote, and then Ricard voted for Heather. Unless his play was to get rid of her advantage, it doesn't make sense to me why the extra vote had to be payed.

I posted about Jeff Vories, not Mike.

Kentucky Statewide 1000 Point Club
Jeff Vories (06) also is a part of that club for the birds. Per Lindsey Wilson's website "Vories scored 1,259 points and handed our 294 assists in his Highlands' career. He averaged 12.7 points per game over his four-year career."

State Championship Cinderellas
There's a little Irish Catholic school on a Cinderella run of their own this year. Started the season 0-5 and have rattled off 5 wins in their last 6 games. A true Cinderella story.

Wow.

Jon Gruden is out
...but will he settle with the NFL? I could see Gruden turning down a big offer to stick it to the league.

4th Down Chain Measurement
I personally have never understood chain measurements. I get that it may be the best option that we have, but the placement of the ball is completely subjective to where the official believes that the ball should be placed, not exact. If you are the official making the call, stand on the first down line and just make the call if its a first down or not.

Ashland vs Huntington Prep scrimmage
That's a really high bar to hold for a team to be considered elite.

Allen Odd Man out?
How many guys do you think Cal will have in the rotation?

Frederick Douglass Football Program
I don't disagree that Male would have won the game, and probably won the game going away, but barring injuries I think that the game vs. Boyle could have been very different because FD would have already been humbled. In the end, FD probably did what was best for the program in avoiding a loss and dropping in the RPI due to it, but it would have been fun to see how they stacked up at the time before we knew they were capable of being humbled the way that they were.

Frederick Douglass Football Program
If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. I completely understand your point, and I even understand not taking the game on late notice due to losing points in the RPI and possibly losing home field advantage with a loss, but I am a firm believer than iron sharpens iron. If you aren't being tested week in and week out due to the scheduling constraints that they have, I feel like you have to take the opportunities when they come.

I would have loved to see FD take that Male game a few weeks back. If you want to complain about having to play all of the Lexington public schools I get it, but when you get an opportunity to take on Goliath you have to take it.

Georgia 30 Kentucky 13
I believe myself to be a pretty unbiassed Kentucky fan. Rarely will I claim the officials are one sided, or give commentators a hard time, but am I the only one who felt like the commentary was abysmally one sided for almost the entire game? I understand that Georgia is the best team in the country, and as a commentator you are going to call the game that way, but it seemed to me that they were calling the game as if Kentucky won a make-a-wish opportunity. Maybe I am not as unbiassed as I believe, but I thought that Gary Danielson was HORRIBLE and Nessler wasn't much better.
