BLATANT SHAMELESS PANDERING GIMMEH
You know what’s sexy about Vanderbilt? The teams they play, according to this video. We would care about the lackluster narration, the slow pacing, and the choice of a rather obvious theme track, but we apologize: the instant Knowshon Moreno leaves the ground, we lost all rationality and starting tasting the sweet blood of football in our mouths. We’ll wait for you football wearing whatever you like. Just keep sending us the occasional bits of footage set to dramatic music, and we’ll be your sports Penelope forever. When you come back it will be worth all the lonely. [/takes final sips from Nyquil bottle, totters off to pharmacy.] (HT: The Wiz.)

@5 They didn’t want the Big Ten to feel bad, so they didn’t count them all.

@5
It said OVER 20 national championships. VOILA!
“THIS IS THE BIG TEN” runs on a 28K dial-up.
The offseason, with the exceptions of Orson’s daily creations and Holly’s weekly corrections, blows goats, owls, millipedes and Tony Barnhart. Not necessarily in that order.

I always hate football during the off season. Videos like this confirm the hate. Actual football is the only antidote to my off season hate. BTW the SEC is pompous and ridiculous. What is the intended audience for this video? It cant possibly just be YouTube. Knowshon Moreno has herpes.

Curse you, intervening months till August!
BTW, did anyone else feel that they really wanted Sam Elliot for the voiceover, but he was unavailable?

Papa Lou BSU says:
Actually, Techie, Elliot considered it, but couldn’t figure out a way to get the words “banquet beer” (delivered in his unique gravelly baritone, of course) into the script.
No deal.

A thing of beauty, but it is ironic that they had UCLA-Tennessee clips in which a team from God’s Conference lost to those pretty boys from the Pac 10.

I just wish that when the text “The Scores” came up on the screen that the AU-MSU 2008 scoreboard followed.

I think they need a shot of the Daves or uncle Verne in order to really make it the SEC.

Seriously, you SEC fans liked that video? Seems the best conference in America should have something a little less milquetoast. All I can say is I fully expected a creed song to follow the pseudo-hip-hop track.

I believe they also created one for the Big 10, but it’s about 15 minutes long because everyone is so much slower.

These comments about Big Televen speed got me to thinkin’. How come Big Televen skill players are so slow but that fuckin’ barstool cart could go 38?
