USU Fooball Ranked!

...#119 out of 119 by Sports Illustrated.

As a season ticket holder since my arrival on this beautiful campus, I was dismayed to see our Aggies ranked dead last in Division I football by Sports Illustrated despite the fact that we are riding a two-game winning streak into this season (last year's record: 2-10). They were also the only team predicted to lose EVERY game this season.

Other publications have us ranked as high as #114! Woo hoo.

...well, at least we have some notoriety and there is no where to go but UP. I have faith that we will be infinitely better than predicted (meaning: we win at least one). Of course, this optimistic slant is tempered by the fact that I am trying to justify the increase in ticket prices and "seat licensing fees" this year. It's getting harder and harder for me to find someone to go to the games with... (Ummm, anyone want to buy some tickets? Cheap.)
