The Amazing Race 17
Here we go!
The premiere is September 26.
One team consists of a birth mother and the daughter she gave up for adoption. And yes, we have a former Miss USA contestant and a former Miss America contestant. But unless I missed it, no mactors.
I miss nittanyalum.

Are they two actors dating each other, therefore they "mack" on each other? 
Or a mock actor?

A model/actor, especially one who goes on a reality show in an attempt to get noticed.

The birth mother and birth daughter pledged the same sorority at UGA! They did not say which one, but I am sure that our GC sleuths will have that solved in no time flat.
In their interview they said that when they meet on the starting line it will only be the 3rd time that they have ever seen each other. Based on the interview I really like them. We will see.
(and I miss nittany too...)
ETA: It doesn't look like they are Thetas.

Looks like ZTA.
I only watched their video, but it seemed like Jenna was really uncomfortable and kept looking off to the side. When she was able to talk she was great, but looked awkward when her bio mom was talking. Maybe it was just the cameras?

Yes Jenna is a Zeta from UGA. I found her on the sister site. Her mom on the other hand wasn't there. She could have left UGA before intiation.

How awkward and difficult is it going to be for them to compete having spent so little time together?? Could also be awkward and difficult to watch...not to mention, if it goes south, how negative this could be for adoptees, etc.
(but maybe I am reading too much into it, I am only on my first cup of coffee)

I just glanced throught the cast. Kevin, of the father/son duo, is one of my favorite subscriptions on YouTube. He has a couple of sites, the one I remember is KevJumbo. His father appears in Kevin's videos quite a lot. They are both sophomorically funny. I'm wondering if Amazing Race approached them?

Just FYI, it is now at 8:30 because CBS finally wised up and realized football never ends on time. Or, at least it is this week.
