Bored 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2008 No changes in the names of conference this year but as always we do have changes in the alignments and here they are. Big Eight Illinois - The Ghost of Harold Ballard Indiana - Tzar Lysergic Michigan - MFerXtreme87 Minnesota - Vern Gagne Ohio State - Gert T Rutgers - the pinjockey San Diego State - Next USC #55 Syracuse - CanadianChris Seems every year I have to move the two Big East teams and this time I grouped with the Big Ten. I couldn't find another spot for San Diego State so they get thrown in here to fill out the conference. Big MAC Ball State - Vampiro69 Buffalo - Carnival Kent State - JHawk Miami of Ohio - Hawk 34 Nebraska - Mecca Texas - Broward83 Tulsa - Will Scarlet UTEP - Angel Grace Blue MAC and Big XII are grouped together this time around and I added the two Conference USA teams due to UTEP playing Texas and Buffalo in real life. Pac-8 Arizona - UZI Suicide Arizona State - still fly Notre Dame - KingPK Stanford - Bored UCLA - phoenixirising USC - Cartman Washington - Smues Washington State - MrRant This is similar to the set up of the conference from two years ago as we have seven Pac-10 teams and I add in Notre Dame as the eighth team due to the fact that they play Washington, USC, and Stanford in real life. Southeastern Seven Alabama - AlwaysPissedOff Florida - Urban Warfare Georgia - Obi Chris Kenobi Kentucky - Danville Wrestling LSU - teke184 Navy - MarvinisaLunatic South Carolina - Cuban Linx Tennessee - Canadian Brandon Third straight year we end up with seven SEC teams but this time around I threw Navy in there simply because I had no where else to put them. Western Atlantic Conference Boise State - Vitamin X Boston College - HarleyQuinn Florida State - 909 Fresno State - Agent Bond34 Georgia Tech - iggymcfly Miami - Spaceman Spiff N.C. State - AboveAverage484 Virginia - Edwin MacPhisto The conference is almost identical to last year with only change being Fresno State replacing Hawaii.

Bored 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2008 And here's the meaningless Preseason Top 10. As always these rankings are there purely for the sake of having rankings for Week 1.

Virginia - Edwin MacPhisto 6. Texas - UTBroward 7. Boise State - Vitamin X 8. Stanford - Bored 9. Kent State - JHawk 10. UCLA - phoenixrising Now I have to work on the schedule, which I think I'll have up by Wednesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted August 11, 2008 Unfortunately yes as I've already started working on the schedule. But the history of this contest says there will always be a one or two early dropouts so feel free to poke around when the season starts to see if a spot opens. Speaking of the schedule, I hadn't realized until today that the college football regular season is a week longer this year so that will necessitate adding a 13th game to the regular season of the contest.

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted August 11, 2008 Oh sweet, ranked 7th to start the year? Awesome. I had a totally unexpected run last year, I am not sure if I can expect to replicate it, but this is a hell of a competitive conference, so we'll see.

Bored 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2008 Aww I didn't mean it. It ended up working out that way because South Carolina plays N.C. State in it's real life opener and every year I like to get the Bored Bowl rematch out of the way early. It would have been Week 1 if it wasn't for the N.C. State game. Besides you should be more worried about your Week 4 opponent. OH YEAH, IT'S ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
