FULMER CUP SCOREBOARD: ILLINI BACK ON TOP.
The big board is up. Apologies, groveling begging for forgiveness, and complete inaccuracies follow. As always, thanks to Brian for rigging it up:

Clarifications:
Penn State, firmly in second now. With charges against four players dropped, Penn State descends from the peak and is a mere K2 to Illinois’ Everest of points. No one’s really sad about this, are they? Except for other Big Ten fans and, curiously, us?
Nebraska: in with a bullet! Or a fist, unless Maurice Purify had a bullet in hand whilst beating a guy and his girlfriend in a Lincoln bar. Attn: legal types: if that were the case, would it up his charges? Nebraska’s been pretty sedate post-Osbourne, so expect little else out of the ‘Huskers following Purify’s points.
Whoa, golly, that’s a sneaky total there, Idaho. Even we hadn’t noticed exactly how many points Idaho’s managed to pile up this offeseason. Cocaine is indeed a helluva drug.
If we die before we finish this paragraph……then we leave the administration of the Fulmer Cup to Bloo at Fire Mark May, simply because he’s the only commentator of appropriate gravitas to handle the immense responsibilities of handling the Fulmer Cup. The rest of the Swindle testament has been handily covered by T. Kyle and company, who’ve saved us the trouble by writing our will and testament for us. Thanks? Thanks.
Nice to know we crossed four million visits before going to the big Gator wallow in the sky, at least.

Those are just your typical thug teams anyway. How come Miami is not ranked on this list? Wait, isn’t it relevant to did up thuggary details twenty years ago and just ignore the present….kind of like every other Thug U reporting?

Where’s the 24/7 coverage on sportscenter for this stuff. Oh yeah… I forgot they’re not in orange in green so it doesn’t count.

Yeah, devin, “pushing thirty” is code for “old fucker”. I should know…
Always good to have a will, but in Florida the “executor” is called a personal representative… never liked having anyone called an “executor” dealing with my life or death. Just sayin’…

Since we’re discussing Orson’s mortality, I just wanted to point out that according to the description over on the right side, Orson & Stranko have been “pushing thirty” for quite awhile now. If this goes on too long, your reputation for honesty & integrity may be damaged. (I am willing to accept that Subcommandante Wayne will remain eternally twenty-three.)

#26, I know. They’re blowing the lead worse than Michigan State did vs ND. This will really affect their psyches.

jakldawg - Not from Perry County, but it heavily influences that opinion. Very, very heavily.

SMQ, I think you have officially convinced me to never get anywhere near Mississippi after that story of yours. Or Montana for that matter.

The former coach at Nebraska was Tom Osborne, not Osbourne :-p

Great, great….the courts go and flush all the hard work at Penn State down the drain. Now our players have to go out and find completely new trouble to start instead of just protecting their lead. Don’t worry, where there are beatdowns, rapes, murders, or roberies, Penn State football is there. Tripple digits by the season opener. Mark it down!
