    This was fair game!
    Actually, it was more a commentary on dear Snoopy, who posted a ten-week-old ranking and then pretended to fret that his team made the list.

      Fact is, I didn't look at the date. I admit this. Do some research and find out if there's a tort called "negligent posting of old rankings."

      BTW, you've been around some other CUFers too much. You've taken to divining my true thoughts. I will have to watch my step around you....

        Only mid-majors care about pre-season rankings. Whatever we're ranked now, we go undefeated we win the NC. That's the way it works for us now.

            lol. Only a mid-major would focus on going undefeated before the season even starts. In the big leagues you take it one game at a time.

                Take a look at that schedule. I may be late to the party here, but is that Cal game in San Francisco and not @Berkly? Did I just miss that or something?

                    I feel like that is a break for the Utes...if ever so small.

                      You better hope that the Giants don't make the World Series. Playing on dirt would suck.

                        We will be fine, game three of the world series is a road game for the national league team. Thank you Prince Fielder.

                            Sounds like the UTES may be a little thin on the OL this fall. Benji Kemoueatu and Po'u Palelei might not be on the sidelines this fall. Hopefully that changes for the better.

                              Sounds like it's a synthetic field that they roll out for football games.
