BROKEBACK BOOTY
One half of of the most sexually suggestive quarterback duo in the nation, John David Booty, will be out for spring practices with back spasms and disc problems, leaving freshman Mark "Dirty" Sanchez the entirety of spring to sign his name onto the upper lip of Trojan starterdom.
If Sanchez does triumph over Booty, it'll mark the second year in a row that the quarterback perceived to be hottest by Boi From Troy won the starting slot. (Leinart doesn't really count since, as incoming Heisman winner he couldn't have been killed out of the starting spot, but don't stand between us and shoehorning the world into a ridiculous, semi-comic theory. It's something bloggers like to do, we're told.)
So the new rule is: whoever your girlfriend/wife/significant other/mail-order bride/gay dude friend thinks is hotter will inevitably win the starting job over the less fetching challenger. It's the Boi rule, and we'll apply it throughout spring practice to decide quarterback controversies, soliciting input from female readers and the ever-key gay college football fan demo to test its validity.

My old roommate from law school informs me that his wife predicts the outcomes of televised football games after seeing camera shots of each coach. She insists that the better-looking coach will always win.
This is how she explains Mark Richt’s success at Georgia . . . and his loss to Urban Meyer. No word yet on whether she feels her theory has been called into question by last year’s clashes with Tommy Tuberville and Rich “Hoss Cartwright” Rodriguez.
I await your exegesis of the Matt Stafford-Blake Barnes-Joe Cox-Joe Tereshinski III Q.B. battle in the Classic City based upon this theory.

That theory is all well and fine. But how in the world, then, does Fulmer ever win anything?
Also, given the Smarts’ man crush on Orgeron maybe you should open this particular forum up to a larger audience than just your initial key demos.

Mr. O. Swindle:
…receive input from FEMALE readers?…
I do not think there is a chick alive who reads sports blogs. Just like most chicks won’t read the paper or listen to the news.
Mebbe to entice ’em to vote do a feature on the latest Pitt-Jolie-Aniston fiasco…and they might come on in.

Comanda and PSUGirl, SKLM, are at least two of our female readers. Add in the Conscience of a Nation, and we’re almost talking up a quorum here.

Matthew:
If Temple’s retired coach – Cheney went to coach football, or Smeigle for the Rings movies coached, then Weis might win….

Is there a “McDreamy” division in the Coaches’ Steel Cage Death Match series? ’Cause that might pull in the distaff readership. . . .

Oh my Ga – is this a sports blog? I thought it was about looking forward to the weekend.
gotta say – the suggestion of a “McDreamy” division made me laugh out loud.
I have an example of the theory in action – In 2000 Ryan Hansen, DB for U of Iowa, was named in People Magazine’s Sexiest Men edition (sexiest athlete, or something like that) – as coincidence would have it, PSU was hosting the Hawkeyes that week. The game went into overtime and Iowa won, following a Hansen (who, btw, had been quiet all day) interception.

Sweet. My girlfriend has a serious crush on Urban. He’s on her ‘allowed-to-cheat-with’ list :)
So, we need to get a poll (ahem), Markus, DeShawn or Kestan?

The premise is not absurd, as Pete “lady killa on a segway” Carroll mops up the SoCal wanna-be actresses with his Under Armour shirts, futuristic personal travel machines and unknown-lil’-brother-of-William-Jefferson-Clinton impersonation. Oh yes, how he slays ’em.

Charlie Weis = hotter than Brady Quinn if the above theory holds any weight.
Go Irish, Beat Tech!

Calvin Johnson is a good lookin dude, and I think Gailey’s got some southern charm going for him…Tech in a land slide! Though both would qualify for the “Most likely to die hours after a trip to Sonny’s BBQ on all you can eat night” Division.

Orson, I’m willing to bet you’ve got many more female readers than you think… we just might not post as frequently as the most dedicated EDSBS readers.
That said, I love the blog… Blue-Gray Sky got me hooked this past season, and I’ve read it ever since. My mom’s a Gator, so I’ve got a special place in my heart for you guys.
And as for Charlie Weis, he may not have the looks, but he’s got that New Jersey charm. (Hey, I tried.) Anyway, keep up the good work guys!

Hey, it worked for Brodie, n’est-ce pas?
So Tim Tebow will be starting for the Gators next season?
