Doesn’t your shift at McDonalds start soon?  Is your mom taking you or do you plan on borrowing the minivan again?

Didn't our horrible team actually come within 3 yards of winning last game? Certainly not the promised blowout.

Obviously motivated by their obscure sports success, we are just one more lawn darts or quidditch championship away from our call up. People that focus on football and men’s basketball are too myopic and don’t see the value conferences see in sacrificing even serviceable product in either of those in order to have moderate success in the sports that you first get to explain to them exist, then get to explain to them how the game is played, that your school has those sports and that you have almost a .500 record blended across the top 8 of those sports if you rotate the categories properly by fractions of a year.

Their on the field product has been good... last 5 seasons 10 wins, 7, 10, 4, 12. 

Colorado State has a stadium too. Their product is as bad as ours. I haven't seen any credible sources that they are serious expansion candidates.

So in SDSU's case building a new stadium and winning some games helped.  Similar to UCF
