Expansion has caused some of college football’s greatest and oldest rivalries to disappear much to the chagrin of its fans and apparently, even some lawmakers.
Ryan Guillen, a Democrat from House District 31, filed a bill Monday that would require Texas and Texas A&M to rekindle their annual football rivalry. The rivalry was put on indefinite hold after Texas A&M moved to the SEC last season. The rivalry dates back to 1894 and up until last year, the schools had played annually since 1915.
"This game is as much a Texas tradition as cowboy boots and barbeque," Guillen, an A&M graduate,said in a statement to ESPN. "The purpose of the bill is to put the 'eyes of Texas upon' our two greatest universities to restore this sacred Texas tradition.

Key said he has also provided healing hologram "chips," which are stuck to the body, to Auburn players during their national-championship season and this year sold healing "bands" to players at Ole Miss and Georgia.

Hey it's the off season, even espn's crappy writers have to have something to write about.

I'm sure they get tired of writing about who's the latest sec player arrested.

Signs point to geographical divisions in the Big Ten

http://www.cbssports.com/collegefoo...oint-to-geographical-divisions-in-the-big-ten

The Big Ten could finally right a wrong in the coming years. With Rutgers and Maryland both scheduled to join the conference in 2014, the Big Ten is going to realign its divisions, and according to most athletic directors in the conference, odds are the conference will follow a logical east-west split.

Maybe Kentucky needs to get some of that deer spray. It couldn't hurt.

What Kentucky needs to do is get the Fresh Prince to swap to football and be in the field goal block unit.

Or just stay off the Bourbon trail, although I find that hard to do myself.
