FULMER CUP CORRECTION: NEBRASKA LOSES POINT IN CUP-TOSSING

by Orson on Mar 29, 2007 5:51 PM EDT

A necessary but sad Fulmer Cup correction: Nebraska loses its point for the cup-tossing incident involving quarterback Sam Keller, who threw a cup from his car at a woman after she stole a parking spot he was waiting for in a campus parking lot.

The points are therefore revoked from scoring. You may, however, commemorate the incident forever by purchasing the item at the center of the whole scandal: the very cup Keller threw on that fateful day, now for sale on EBay. (HT: Corn Nation.)

The EBay page is here. Hurry--the thing might sell for eleven dollars before it's all over.

Sam Keller's cup: yours for just ten dollars at this point.

The funniest part of the whole thing: the pic of "the victim's car."

Hope he completed the pass, he really doesn’t need another transfer.

I don’t get it… why do they get the points revoked? Was it on 5th down or something?

The Sports Argument Wiki is looking for clarification on two potential points:

First, Idaho’s Javon Williams’ taser incident.

Second, Georgia’s MIP also had a Fake ID.

Orson, I thought I heard on a Tennessee sports talk station the other day that an Arkansas player was arrested for shoplifting two shirts but haven’t heard anything else. Wouldn’t want them to miss out on a chance to score in the Cup race.

#2: That’s only for Colorado.

Supposedly the charges are being dropped, although I haven’t seen anything in the Lincoln Journal Star about it yet.

Hey, I have a fake ID; it says I’m only 40!

Not having a Georgia program in front of me at the moment, who’s MIP?

It was a AU diver, not GA. It wasn’t MIP, because he was over 21…and he gave a michigan license(wtf)

that’s a fantastic cup- i didn’t think they made cups with the exquisite teal-and-purple colored spray-paint effect anymore. doesn’t that cup look like a fountain cup you’d get if you ate at “The Maxx” from Saved by the Bell? i wish my high school had such an awesome place to chill near it; sadly the closest development to my high school back in the day was a trailer park.
