I thought about saying something along those lines in my first reply but didn't.

That is the worst freaking logo in all of D-I. It looks like a generic logo from a playstation game, that they just randomly ripped off.

They actually got a new logo just recently. I used that one b/c it was a good size. Here's the new one:

I gotta say though, the have nice helmets:

Unfortunately, I don't think helmets are gonna help GSU from the beating they're about to take. Might as well go out there in shirts and shorts...BCS Champ vs. FCS Start-up? :rofl:

Idaho State played Oklahoma last year (or maybe it was this year...), that was pretty ugly

Didn't Charleston Southern play Florida last year? I believe that Florida was #1 at the time, and CSU ain't very good. That, ahem, 'matchup', has to be up there in this category.

I know that Ga State is strictly in it for the money and exposure as a start up. I'm surprised 'Bama would schedule them - Montana would give them a 70 pt. beatdown, so I can only imagine the negative press Saban and co. will get for beating them 100-3 with the scrub team. :ohno:

100-3? You're underestimating Alabama's defense.

Perhaps it will be a defensive FG. :D

Bill Curry was the HC at Alabama at one point. He pearhps used his influence to get this game.

It's gonna be the last game of the season for GSU, so they'll be banged up, and it's their first year so they won't have the full amount of allotted scholarship players. The cost?

$400,000.

You're either brilliant or still pissed that I shat on EWU. Probably both.

If I'm a Bama season ticket holder I'm not happy about GState on the schedule...body bags should be on the GState bus that any given Saturday :roll:

I don't think FCS vs. BCS games raise any more concern for injuries, but this matchup may be the exception. The disparity of physical maturity will be extreme, and I think Curry and GSU are out of their minds for scheduling the game. When Wilder was named coach at ODU, the first thing he did was cancel the year one game scheduled with W&M because he knew it wasn't fair to the players. Curry is apparently interested in other things.
