You mean the people of Boston aren’t busy looking ahead to Boston College football right now?

The sports fans in Boston have something better to keep them occupied?

With the murder investigation linked to Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez, the Bruins leading the NHL Stanley Cup Final 2-1 (game 4 tonight) and the Red Sox having their dysfunctionally obsessed fanbase (my home town has the same issue with the Cubs), I’d be happy if anyone at all in New England reads this.

This Boston College season preview is Wicked Pissah I promise.

You can read about your Celtics NBA Draft options next week. This week, read about your B.C. Eagles. There’s a whole lot of ACC in the 70s and 60s ranked teams; and a ton of basketball schools in the 77 in 77. Boston College is usually down here in the dregs with Duke, Kentucky, Syracuse, Indiana, Virgina, every season. It’s b-ball schools and ACC; or both.

Sometimes the Syracuse Orange don’t make the cut for the college football 77 in 77. There’s a whole lot of ACC in the 70s and 60s ranked teams; and a ton of basketball schools. Syracuse is usually down here in the dregs with Duke, Kentucky, Boston College, Indiana, Virgina, every season. It’s b-ball schools and ACC; or both.

And that’s a shame because the Syracuse Orange have a fine college football tradition. Or at least they once did with Jim Brown, Ernie “The Express” Davis and company. Don’t expect a whole lot of the Orange this year.

Just when you thought the academic standards for SEC football players couldn’t get any lower. (believe me they’re in the Mariana Trench right now) The Steve Spurrier led South Carolina Gamecocks usher in a new low. Or at least this new blue-chip Gamecocks recruit is…not so much for intellectualism and studying. And he said something very unintelligent to the press.

Arden Key, a junior defensive end from Lithonia (Ga.) High, chose the South Carolina Gamecocks for a few reasons. One of which was………?

Sometimes the Wake Forest Demon Deacons don’t make the cut for the college football 77 in 77. There’s a whole lot of ACC in the 70s and 60s ranked teams; and a ton of basketball schools. Wake Forest is usually down here in the dregs with Duke, Kentucky, Boston College, Indiana, Virgina, every season. It’s b-ball schools and ACC; or both.

And Wake Forest Coach Jim Grobe has done well against the other ACC schools in the state. He’s 15-5 versus Duke, North Carolina and NC State since 2010. Expectations for football are pretty low at Wake Forest; their stadium seats only 31,000.

Whatever distracts you from the terrible college football season on the way…that’s what we’re here for with the first few teams of the 77 in 77 series. Actually, we don’t. Not at all.

We’re here to preview your season Ohio Bobcats fans. Just 76 more days till it kicks off. Ohio U. has made some funny news in recent years. Not actual news, but Fark. And Fark is one of my favorite news sites. It’s the best!

Here’s a couple stories Fark would love. Remember when the Ohio Bobcats mascot attacked Brutus the Buckeye ? Fun times in this program. (watch video here) I mean believe me I want to repeatedly punch everything and everyone Ohio State too, but I wouldn’t act on those impulses.

Welcome to the college football preseason!!!!! Let me say that in ALL CAPS FOR EMPHASIS: WELCOME!!! Colorado Buffaloes fans! If you’re a Chicago baseball fan, the college football season can’t get here fast enough. Well, unless you’re an Illini fan. The athletic program eliminated from the NCAA Tournament by the Illini, your Colorado Buffaloes have also experienced some very lean times lately.

Their recent performances have been so abysmal, I’m probably really reaching here to even include them as the final team to make the 77 in 77 cut. Is this a stretch? Maybe they belong in the 80s? Or 90s? These are the Colorado Buffaloes; it’s a proud program. Things have to turn around sometime?

Yes? No? Maybe?
