The header on the column says "points", which I assume refers to Heisman voting points.

If I'm wrong, blame RT.

I meant it could not be possible that Ty Detmer won the Heisman Trophy.

You pull him out of a list that includes Gino Torretta, Charlie Ward, Rashaan Salaam, Danny Wuerffel, Chris Weinke, Eric Crouch, and Jason White?

That latter bet means you can bet $93.75 to win an additional $150 on the following three events occurring: Penn State winning by more than 4 points (the line is 10, so it teases down to 4), USC winning by more than 1 point (the line is 7 so it teases down to 1), and the total points scored in the Rose Bowl equalling more than 63 (line is 69 . . .)
I was told there was no math on this board.

Done -- I've been meaning to make a board donation anyway. It's maybe a slightly less important cause than WaterAid, but better than spending it on diapers.

1) CBS had the rights to the game, since the Texans are AFC, and on the road. So Fox couldn't switch.

2) Other than Testaverde and Flutie (jury's still out on Palmer) is seems like a Heisman QB is destined to fail, which isn't totally surprising given that QBs in college often punish mediocre teams and are rewarded for gaudy statistics, rather than tough victories.
You are aware that Carson Palmer led the NFL this season in TD passes? I think the jury's back. He's clearly a top 8 QB, and, though he hasn't yet won the BIG ONE, I think you've got to give him a few years before you hold that mark against him.

Though certainly, this Sunday's a pretty fair test for him. I'm among the few who think that Cinci will roll on Sunday, but we'll see.

Excellent. I take back the chicken thing. And I'm sure your desk is very nice.

How nice can it be? I'll bet he doesn't even have any snowmen on his desk. (not to mention snowwomen)

It's sad that I am almost 30 and my first thought on seeing his name is that I think about how he dated Kristin on Laguna Beach when she and Stephen had broken up. And that she was a senior in HS (Jailbait!), when he was a junior in college.

As for the Texans, I say they trade. They could get half a dozen players that would probably help out the team immensely. Probably even as much as firing the coach.

Having grown up in Denver, though, I hope against all hopes that Kubiak stays with the Broncos. I would hate to see his reputation sullied with the taint of having to coach a crappy team. Unfortunately, with 7 head coach spots open, he will likely get one of them.

"Sullied with the taint" could be a contender for board motto.

And if it were anybody but Reggie, I'd agree with you. But I just don't think you can pass that dude up. I've never seen anybody like that in Div. I.
