Gut Penn Sate Football!
Penn State Shame..It's Time To Payup and Take Action for What You've Done!
Article Link Joe Paterno is dead and so is what was left of his good name, shredded to pieces by investigators who didn't seem terribly impressed by anything the coach once did on Saturday afternoons. Jerry Sandusky will spend what is left of the rest of his life in prison, paying for crimes so despicable they are hard to even comprehend. Some former Penn State administrators could be heading there, too.
After Louis Freeh's damning report, they might want to think twice about taking their chances before a jury of their peers. The cult allowed to fester at State College has been exposed, with a once-proud university looking like a backwater institution where worshipping at the statue of Joe was more important than protecting young boys exposed to horrors that will haunt them the rest of their lives.
Paterno's family can protest all it wants, but there is no way to spin this: He hurt a place where his word was gospel, and it may be decades before anyone outside Pennsylvania hears the words "Penn State" and doesn't immediately think of naked boys being abused in the same showers used by the young men who brought the university glory on the football field

Georgia Football 2012: Can Mark Richt Win a BCS Championship?
Bleacher Report Article Link
Georgia football seems light years removed from the Bulldog team that finished 2010 a disappointing 6-7. But has a perception been born that Mark Richt isn’t capable of leading this program to a national championship?
In a recent Bleacher Report article, a survey of 554 respondents indicated that 79 people—14.3%—felt that Georgia had the talent to win the SEC this year, but not the coaching. That number seems surprisingly high to me. Richt has been the coach at Georgia since the 2001 season. In his 11 years, his teams have gone 106-38.
That’s just four games shy of averaging 10-3 a season for that time. Les Miles, who has coached major college teams for the same 11 years—with the past eight years in the SEC—is 103-39. Since 2001, the Bulldogs have won the SEC East Championship 4 times.
Their record in the conference championship game is 2-2 with Richt as coach.
