UCLA and USC has girls that can dress well if you ask me.

NYU does NOT.

Howard?? I don't see that at all.

Berkeley? Cut me a break on this. NYU is a private version of this school...definitely not a stylish school at all.

Delta lady, it's a little thing called "Raiderization". You see, the Oakland Raiders are scum, and when they had to play there, they consequently tainted the stadium and made it evil. Sure, USC wins, but when your fans get jumped in the parking lot, in all actuallity no one wins.

Ha! SMSU Bear, you crack me up! But it's kind of true!

Sorry to correct you again, but you're using stats from 2000. Auburn is now ranked #20: http://www.princetonreview.com/colle...D=2&TopicID=12 Auburn does have the highest ranked library in the SEC, but as should be expected, there are 2 ACC schools ranked ahead of the best in the SEC.

Once again I am compelled to ask...does your library have a skywalk?

That should enlighten you.

Actually there is a section of the Berkely population that are not hippie/natural types.... and actually DO dress nicely... they're greek

I'm kidding... but seriously there are people at Berkely who dress in stylish clothing... I think in general people on west coast are a lot more lax about when they choose to get dressed up than in the south and east coast...

GO CHIEFS!!!!

Chiefs Kick Ass. I got Priest Holmes and Trent Green to sign a football for me when my dad took my family to the Chiefs/Raiders Game in November. My dad gets little perks like that!! That was one wild ass game!! My ears still ring from the noise there. I saw someone get punched because he said he missed Rich Gannon!

And Chicago has kids that can conjugate verbs correctly.

I agree that there is no way NYU tops the list though.

Based on what? NYU is the hippest school around.

Hey Anchora, is "The world's largest outdoor cocktail party" really all it's cracked up to be? You hear about it a lot, but I was just wondering if it is as amazing as it is made out to be.

I know this wasn't addressed to me, but I'll answer it anyway, as I think I have a unique perspective being from Jacksonville

It's an event not to be missed, if you are a dawg or gator. Where else can you see a stadium divided in half with red and the other half in orange? It does get a little crazy because you have both schools rowdiest fans all in the same place at the same time. Everyone comes down early in the week, so it's almost like a week worth of tailgating and partying.

I grew up going to this game every year, back when UGA was dominating the series. It hasn't been as much fun the past 13 years, with the exception of 1997, but I think it's going to be a lot of fun for us again soon

Great moments in a would be father's life
To my Son, if I ever have one:

Kid, I am writing this on September 3, 1984. I have just returned from Athens, where I spent Saturday watching the University of Georgia, your old dad's alma matter, play football against Clemson.

While the events of the day were still fresh on my mind, I wanted to recount them so if you are ever born, you can read this and perhaps be able to share one of the great moments in your father's life.

Saturday was a wonderful day on the Georgia campus.

We are talking blue, cloudless sky, a gentle breeze and a temperature suggesting summer's end and autumn's approach.

I said the blessing before we had lunch. I thanked the Lord for three things: fried chicken, potato salad and for the fact he had allowed me the privilege of being a Bulldog.

"And , Dear Lord," I prayed, "bless all those not as fortunate as I."

Imagine my son, 82,000 people, most whom were garbed in red, gathered together gazing down on a lush valley of hedge and grass where soon historic sporting combat would be launched.

Clemson was ranked number 2 in the nation, and Georgia, feared too young to compete with the veterans from beyond the river, could only dream, the smart money said, of emerging three hours hence victorious.

They had us 20-6 at the half, son. A man sitting in front of me said, "I just hope we don't get embarrassed."

My boy, I had never seen such a thing as came to pass in the second half. Todd Williams threw one long and high, and Herman Archie caught it in the end zone, and it was now 20-13.

Georgia got the ball again and scored again, and it was now 20-20, and my mouth was dry, and my hands were shaking, and this Clemson fan who had been running his mouth the whole ballgame suddenly shut his fat face.

Son, we got ahead 23-20, and the ground trembled and shook, and many were taken by fainting spells.

Clemson's kicker, Donald Igwebuike, tied it 23-23 and this sacred place became the center of the universe.

Only seconds were left when Georgia's kicker, Kevin Butler, stood poised in concentration. The ball rushed toward him, and it was placed upon the tee a heartbeat before his right foot launched it heavenward.

A lifetime later, the officials threw their arms aloft. From 60 yards away, Kevin Butler had been true, and Georgia led and would win 26-23.

I hugged perfect strangers and kissed a fat lady on the mouth. Grown men wept. Lightening flashed. Thunder rolled. Stars fell, and joy swept through, fetched by a hurricane of unleashed emotions.

When Georgia beat Alabama 18-17 in 1965, it was a staggering victory. When we came back against Georgia Tech and won 29-28 in1978, the Chapel bell rang all night. When we beat Florida 26-21 in the last seconds in 1980, we called it a miracle. And when we beat Notre Dame 17-10 in the Sugar Bowl that same year for the national championship, a woman pulled up her skirt and showed the world the Bulldog she had sewn on he underbritches.

But Saturday may have been even better than any of those.

Saturday in Athens was a religious experience.

I give this to you, son. Read it and re-read it, and keep it next to your heart. And when people want to know how you wound up with the name "Kevin" let them read it, and then they will know.

And yes...Mr. Grizzard was a proud member of Sigma Pi...
