COUNTDOWN '09: 45

Oh boy, I can’t wait to see the historic programs from the other powerhouse OOC opponents such as Florida International, Troy, and Charleston Southern!

And the result of that particular game ….

Tulane – 6
Florida – 6

Tulane was a whole different animal back then.

However…the VP at the company I work at was caught on camera busting ass in the parking lot. I laughed histerically as I watch the replay from the security camera. Should I fear for my future employment at this company or do I save the footage for potential Christmas party presentation?

His left hand is getting a little too close to Albert’s special spot.

Albert looks intrigued…

You’re a day off, today is 46.

Natijacket….you’re a dumbass. I know this may shock you, but the abilities of individual CFB teams have changed over time. In fact, some former powerhouses (like Sewanee) no longer even field teams. Tulane, for example, won the SEC title in 1949, though 1945 was admittedly a down year for the Green Wave. Florida was not much better.

Any non ROTC university had a pretty rough time in the early 1940s, as there were not many healthy (white) males left after service drafts. In fact, this is why UGA routinely stomped the shit out of UF, as Georgia had an ROTC program and UF did not.

But hey, don’t let knowledge and perspective interrupt an insult opportunity!

wwwwwwooooooooooooooo the fucking couuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuntttttttttdoooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn

Countdown commences to begin the most wonderful time of the year (apologies to Santa Claus, Jesus, Hannukah, Kwanzaa, Solstice, Eid-al Uhda, Yule etc)

Joshua:
SC Gamecocks @ NCSt Wolfpack, Thursday, Sept 3.

Why don’t they make programs like that/this anymore?
http://asgardpress.com/ has the best shit that you can buy at a Cracker Barrel.

This shows why Tulane eventually fell out of the SEC. Their recruiting revolved around a single quantifiable metric … belly measurement.

@7, 10:
From and including: Monday, July 20, 2009
To, but not including : Thursday, September 3, 2009

It is 45 days from the start date to the end date, but not including the end date.

This is the logical calculation. On September 3, there shouldn’t be a countdown post — the appointed day is here.

Pinto sure does get angry when you mock his team’s weak OOC schedule.

@DoubleDawg05:
Last year, our ooc schedule was FSU, Miami, a winning team which was a BCS Bowl team the year before, and a team chosen as a sentimental retirement game for a Florida legend, Mr. Two Bits.

And we still won the MNC.

You should be HAPPY we’re filling up on cupcakes. It might breed complacency, giving you a slim chance.

You may now resume your scheduled ARP ARP ARPing.

The countdown is 2…2 days until sec media days.

Don’t be afraid to schedule an OOC away game outside of Florida. I can say this b/c UGA no longer holds the dubious title of SEC team most afraid to leave the South.

(and I don’t like the Dawg 05 who thinks he is double this Dawg 05)

Joshua—only if you include the end date. We don’t, and thus 45 days.

O,

I don’t count the end date. I count today. I was counting towards that Saturday when the Tigahs take the field. I stand by my count.

The countdown should be when Tebow ascends to heaven. My bet is the halftime of UF-Tenn. game. Or right after a game where he starts under center with his fancy new footwork and throwing motion and throws 2 Pick-6’s, then he goes back to Shotgun and his crazy whack funky throwing motion, and wins the game, then ascends to Bear Bryants side, since we all know that Bear is Football God to Football Jesus……..

Shit, I just consulted an actual calendar and realized my count is off. It’s 47 days till. So you are on regarding that Thurdsay. But I could care less about USC and NC State.

I mean, yeah, it’s foobaw. But it ain’t LSU.

MC P Pants,

Who will be there at the Transfiguration? Jesus had some disciples with Him. I wonder who Tebow will pick. I wonder which prophets Tebow will appear beside?

@MPP – I hate your team with a passion usually reserved only for holy war, but I just can’t quit your comment posts.

Looks like Tebow giving a circumcision!

So, I learned 2 things today: 1) Tulane was in the SEC and 2) apparently they were good way back when, therefore disproving my theory that we who grew up in Louisiana have chanted since prehistoric times “LSU we love you, Tulane down the drain”.

Pretty neat stuff, but I question the authenticity of some covers. I can’t remember when Miss State changed from A&M to State but think it was during WWII. They have a 1938 program w/ “MIss State” on it.

I love the program cover…and having lived in Lafayette, LA for a while I can assure you that the Tulane player is simply figuring out which pot to get out of the cupboard.

C’mon Cocks! Minor disappointment only this year. Yay!

Mmmmmm countdowny goodness.

This site does a great countdown.

+100 cocktails

Your mascot is Jar Jar Binks.

@16

I am DoubleDawg05 b/c I have two degrees from our beloved school, and I graduated in 05, not because I was trying to copy your oh so original name.

According to Wikipedia (which admittedly is a somewhat sketchy source, but to be fair they’ve started to crack down on frivolous editing) Miss. A&M became MSC in 1932, then MSU in 1958. I don’t question the legitimacy of the programs, but it sure seems like they used a lot of “stock” football images for those covers.

@ 28

Would that be a major in SIT and a minor in ROLL-OVER??

@7 (Pinto)

Sewanee does still field a football team — Division III, but a team nonetheless. Proud (sort of…) to be the only founding member of the SEC that never won a conference game.

Yea Sewanee’s Right!

what is he measuring?

DD05,

Sarcasm. Its in my post. I don’t think either of our names are hard to figure out, unless one of us is only 4 years old.

There’s allot of hate here. I’ve missed the hate. Even fans of the same team are getting snippy, or “arp-y” as it were. Ah, what a great time of year.

That’s an outstanding graphic. GO JACKETS, STING ’EM! I look forward to 2009 with EDSBS.

He’s measuring for Alligator boots… and hoping he has enough for a belt!
