Georgia Tech's Labor of Hercules: the Mini 500 Homecoming Event
Editor's Note: It's Homecoming Weekend at Georgia Tech and the Mini-500 kicks it off at 5pm at Peters Parking Deck. Bird wrote a great piece on the Mini-500 last year and here it is again to educate and inform. Who will be there tonight? It's my favorite event of homecoming so I'll surely be there....
I think there might be a home game this Saturday...
Even though the Utes have officially played a home game (Montana State), this weekend really feels like the home opener. In fact, it will be the first Saturday game of the year and it's taking place in October. I don't recall that ever happening before and it's all due to a scheduling quirk that...

Georgia Bulldogs 43, Vanderbilt Commodores 0: We Have a New Uga . . . and a New Season
I’m not going to lie to you; in the early going, it didn’t look good for the home team. Oh, sure, the Georgia Bulldogs covered the opening kickoff well, but, after that, everything pretty much fell apart. On the first play from scrimmage, Larry Smith completed a nine-yard pass to Warren Norman. The...
Too Much Information: Georgia Bulldogs v. Vanderbilt Commodores
Apparently, the attitude of fans of the Vanderbilt Commodores toward fans of the Georgia Bulldogs is one of fear and condescension, coupled with a belief that the ‘Dores have enjoyed a fair degree of recent success against the ‘Dawgs (loosely defined, of course; Georgia has gone 32-3-1 against...
Winner gets the girl at the homecoming dance: a Louisville-UConn preview
Ah, the heady days of 2007. Back before Louisville collapsed in on itself like so many red dwarfs (the star, not the British TV show), UConn fans were chanting "BCS! BCS!" on the concourse of Rentschler Field after the win over the Cardinals. I know, I was there. Though I was not one of the...
Georgia Bulldogs 38, Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles 0: Yes, But . . .
It was a sunny yet crisp day in Athens. The usual homecoming pushover allowed for a 1:00 kickoff and a relaxed atmosphere, which made it a good day for me to take my six-year-old son to the stadium. Having Thomas with me invariably colors my view of any outing for the better, so I probably came...
NMSU schedules Broncos, big loss for homecoming
The New Mexico State Aggies scheduled Boise State as their homecoming opponent this season, in order to fit with the school's homecoming theme: "Horrible, horrible losses." We hear Custer and the Last Stands are playing at the postgame dance. Typically, most schools schedule cupcakes on...
The list: Top 10 reasons not to attend BSU Homecoming
This weekend's game is Homecoming at Boise State, and as we mentioned earlier in the week, Bronco football players are not terribly interested. Might one of the following reasons be why? 10. David Augusto will probably be there. 9. You are 34 years old, married, and not in college. 8. Two words:...
