Syracuse vs. Pittsburgh - Road Trip Impressions, Podcasted
Well, that was depressing... The 2011 Syracuse football season was a true enigma. It started out featuring a team who may not have been overly talented, or dominant, but they seemed to know how to win. They may have given one away against Rutgers, but then the West Virginia game happened, and I...

The Mountain West/WAC and the BCS.
This line of thought is getting pretty damn ridiculous. It comes up every few months. Some blowhard spouts out off abut how the Mountain West is more deserving of a BCS bid than the Big East and/or the ACC. Usually that person has a novel approach to the issue, they don't just regurgitate...
