From, as always, Awful Announcing: Tonight: The Battle of the Techs, with the lovely Erin Andrews on the sidelines.

These aren’t necessarily the greatest traditions in college football, but chances are you haven’t heard of at least one of these ten unique traditions. My personal favorite from the list is Georgia Tech’s George P. Burdell: George P. Burdell is a fictitious student officially enrolled at Georgia Tech in 1927 as a practical joke. Since [...]

Apparently some writers don’t take ther AP Poll ballot as seriously as fans would like them to. (Thanks to TheBigLead for the heads up.)
