What is your favorite College Team?

USC Washington Football

Southern California quarterback John David Booty prepares to pass against Washington in the second half Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Seattle.

The Trojans (4-0, 2-0 Pac-10) committed three turnovers and 16 penalties -- their most in more than two seasons -- for 161 yards, plus had a missed a field goal and a blocked punt in a game played through a first-half drizzle. Yet they won for the 60th time in 64 games. USC won, 27-24. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson)
 

LSU Tulane Football

LSU receiver Brandon LaFell can't get away from Tulane cornerback Josh Lumar in the first half of their football game in the Superdome in New Orleans Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. LSU was called for holding in the end zone resulting in a safety on the play.

Tulane trailed only 10-9 at halftime and didn't fall more than one score behind until Hester's 1-yard touchdown run gave LSU a 20-9 lead with 5:53 remaining in the third quarter.

Oklahoma Colorado Football

Oklahoma wide receiver Juaquin Iglesias, bottom, dives to catch a pass as Colorado Benjamin Burney (42) defends during the fourth quarter at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colo., Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. The pass was ruled incomplete after review and Oklahoma lost their first down.

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops envisioned it going down to the wire. Colorado's Dan Hawkins had a hunch his team would pull off the big upset.

Both coaches turned out to be correct and Hawkins' Buffaloes dealt a serious blow to the Sooners national title hopes when Kevin Eberhart kicked a career-long 45-yard field goal as time expired to send Colorado past No. 3 Oklahoma 27-24 on Saturday. (AP Photo/Jack Dempsey)

Auburn Florida Football

Auburn's Mario Fannin (27) goes throught the Florida line with Floridia's Major Wright (21), Jacques Rickerson (23) and Brandon Spikes (51) trying to stop him in 2nd half between Florida and Auburn in Gainesville, Fla. Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007. Auburn defeated Florida, 20-17.

Wes Byrum's 43-yard field goal as time expired lifted the Tigers to a 20-17 victory over No. 4 Florida on Saturday night and gave them one of the biggest upsets on a day filled with them.(AP Photo/Phil Sandlin)

West Virginia South Florida Football

South Florida quarterback Matt Grothe (8) eludes a hit by West Virginia's Charles Pugh (15) during the second quarter Friday night Sept. 28, 2007, in Tampa, Fla. Grothe eventually threw a touchdown pass on the play. 

Grothe scrambled to avoid a sack before throwing a 55-yard touchdown pass to Carlton Mitchell, and Ben Moffitt returned one of his two interceptions 26 yards for a TD to lead a stellar defensive performance in the Big East opener. (AP Photo/Steve Nesius)

Kansas St Texas Football

Kansas State defensive end Ian Campbell, right, runs toward the goal line after intercepting a pass from Texas quarterback Colt McCoy and running it back 41 yards for the score during second quarter action Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Austin, Texas.

Kansas State scored three touchdowns on special teams and an interception, and the Wildcats stunned the No. 7 Longhorns 41-21, handing Texas coach Mack Brown his worst home defeat in 10 years. (AP Photo/Harry Cabluck)
 

Ohio St Minnesota Football

Ohio State's Kurt Coleman, left, and James Laurinaitis, right, bring down Minnesota running back Duane Bennett for a loss in the third quarter Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007, in Minneapolis.

Ohio State turned in another well-rounded victory, staying unbeaten while several other top-ranked teams couldn't.

Jesus and Satan were having an on-going argument about who was better
on the computer. They had been going at it for days, and frankly God was tired of hearing all the bickering.

Finally fed up, God said, “THAT’S IT! I have had enough. I am going to set up a test that will run for two hours, and from those results,

I will judge who does the better job.”

So Satan and Jesus sat down at the keyboards and typed away.

They moused.

They faxed.

They e-mailed.

They e-mailed with attachments.

They downloaded.

They did spreadsheets!

They wrote reports.

They created labels and cards.

They created charts and graphs.

They did some genealogy reports

They did every job known to man.

Jesus worked with heavenly efficiency and Satan was faster than hell.

Then, ten minutes before their time was up, lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, thunder rolled, rain poured, and, of course, the power went off..

Satan stared at his blank screen and screamed every curse word known in the underworld.

Jesus just sighed.

Finally the electricity came back on, and each of them restarted their computers. Satan started searching frantically, screaming:

“It’s gone! It’s all GONE! “I lost everything when the power went out!”

Meanwhile, Jesus quietly started printing out all of his files from the past two hours of work.

Satan observed this and became irate.

“Wait!” he screamed. “That’s not fair! He cheated! How come he has all his work and I don’t have any?”

God just shrugged and said,

JESUS SAVES

Hiya, sugar. Here’s one for you

A little boy wanted $100 so badly that he prayed for two weeks. But nothing happened; so he decided to write God a letter asking for the money. When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to “GOD, USA”, they decided to send it to the President. He was so impressed, touched, and amused that he instructed his secretary to send the boy a $5 bill.

The little boy was delighted with the $5, and sat down to write a thank you note to God, which read; “Dear God, Thank you very much for sending me the money. However, I noticed that for some reason you had it sent through Washington, DC, and as usual, those guys deducted $95.”

The nice thing about being senile is you can hide your own Easter eggs.

I've sure gotten old! I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92. Have lost all my friends. But, thank God, I still have my driver's license.

I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my doctor's permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.

Know how to prevent sagging? Just eat till the wrinkles fill out.

It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee maker.

Remember: You don't stop laughing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop laughing.----------

THE SENILITY PRAYER : Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference.

As to the subject of this thread, isn't this the best part of football:

Here is the traditional collegiate football quiz to begin the season. 
Even though you may know most of the answers, it is still fun to reminisce the halcyon days of yore.


(1) What does the average Alabama player get on his SATs?

.........Drool.


(2) What do you get when you put thirty-two Arkansas cheerleaders in one room?

.........A full set of teeth.


(3) How do you get a South Carolina cheerleader into your dorm room?

.........Grease her hips and push.


(4) How do you get a Georgia graduate off your porch?

.........Pay him for the pizza..


(5) How do you know if a Mississippi State football player has a girlfriend?

........There is tobacco spit on both sides of his pickup.


(6) Why is the Kentucky football team like a possum?

.........Because they play dead at home and get killed on the road.


(7) What are the longest three years of an Auburn football player's life?

.........His freshman year.


(8) How many Florida Freshmen does it take to change a light bulb?

.........None -- that's a sophomore course.


(9) Where was O. J. headed in the white Bronco?

........Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He knew that the police would never look at LSU for a Heisman Trophy winner.


AND FINALLY (drum roll and cymbal crash.....)


(10) Why did Tennessee choose orange as their team color?

.........You can wear it to the game on Saturday, hunting on Sunday, and picking up trash along the highways the rest of the week.
