How about Georgia Tech as Xhibit? Has some excellent years, but rarely is able to make it to the top. Finally, they branch out into other areas, where they excel (Xcel?), but the potential to come back for a big year is always there.
And how is Miami the one rapper without a history of drug abuse and prison time?
Eminem does have a history of drug abuse and prison time. Well, maybe not prison, but jail at least.
Who's that chick in the Houston rappers montage? I'mma hafta call her up.
Tired of people sayin they're tired of hearin me rap about drugs,
Travel.
specfuckingtactular. have watched just enough MTV Jams to make 75% of comparisons mean something. image link blocked for birdman.
This might be the greatest blog post of all time. I am not prone to hyperbole.
(It took me ten minutes to write that because I am so shook off the realness.)
I think with The U/Eminem, it is representative of something that was once seen as dangerous that has now been scrubbed clean for mass consumption. At least with Miami kids nowadays, the bad shit goes down only AFTER they leave school.
I'll post more as they come to me, but I'd say the best comparison for Xzibit is Arizona; some consider them sleeping giants, but in reality, they both need to stick to their day job. Maybe Georgia Tech is like Kool Keith; every seven or so years, they put together an improbable run, but most of the time, they're plagued with inconsistency, questionable playcalling and an inability to escape the fact that they'll always be repping for nerds.
By the way, Trav- that girl is the one who gets the honor of rubbing her ass on Paul Wall during the "Still Tippin'" video. For the same honor in "Sittin' Sideways," he recruits this one chick who does that Jessica Alba "her hair is the same color as her skin" look that I'm not feelin' at all. Two hit videos, no white chicks. Paul Wall truly is the People's Champ.
I can't wait to shoot the video for "Indie Rock Girls."
fantastic post. Arizona St./Blackalicious? inspired. But Kansas St./Master P is a true revelation.
Whoa, way to turn on your boys after one 4-7 season, Burrows! Whoever put Marshall on the schedule needed to get fired, posthaste. But how soon we forget that KSU rubs elbows with the likes of Colorado, Nebraska, Mizzou and Iowa State. Isn't it pretty much a "whoever doesn't go on probation wins the Division" kind of thing in Big XII North?
Isn't it more just like the "Playing on Borrowed Time" division? As much as I hate it, Nebraska will get its shit together and get back to having those two-game seasons against Oklahoma or Texas and whichever one makes it to the Big XII title game. I mean, Callahan has been recruiting his ass off. I am not seeing anything that touches what happened from 94-97, but Nebraska will probably be back. And again, poor Gary Pinkel. What a moron.
Wow.
Best post in a while. Perhaps you CAN win after all. We need rappers for Miss. State (Sly Croom!) and Vandy (I'm thinking Will Smith could work here). I mean, what rapper is the Baylor of the rap world? And then there are the two North Carolina football powerhouses, NC and NC State.
Baylor = Murphy Lee
Despite major label/conference affiliation, no one respects them and the powers that be seem to keep them around solely to have someone to laugh at and whup up on.
North Carolina = Consequence
Should be a lot better than they are. Has a relative (UNC basketball; Q-Tip) who is a legend in the field and everyone likes more. Was hot for about ten minutes but then shit changed and they couldn't recapture the buzz. Often associated with the arrogant (Dookies; Kanye).
NC State = Memphis Bleek
Perpetually on the verge, but it's always something (if not the defense then the offense; if not the weak rhymes then the horrible production) that keeps them mediocre or worse. Most people wouldn't care if they kept on or not.
Ian, I went back through your old livejournal shit (nh?) (as did my mother (LOL!), who likes your writing), and it was great. On these internets (and this one, in particular), sincerity is probably not too cool, so please pardon my contravention. Really nicely done.
And the hits just keep on coming. I wish you could have used mine. Oh well, I guess that's why I have a website, too 
Your suggestions were certainly influential...I'm pretty much taking requests at this point until I got all of D I-A covered.
One team that's kind of tough is Iowa. The school has some history of success, but it was also completely horrible for a long time before becoming this ominous near-power in the last three years. The recent surge reminds me of Saigon: Both strike some fear in the hearts of the established elite; Both are really good but can also put out some weak shit (like losing to Arizona State so badly); And both have not made it yet--they need a signature moment like a BCS win or a strong debut record. That only works so well, though, because Saigon is gully and Iowa is absolutely not. Actually, Iowa could be Little Brother: The real heads respect them; they are acknowledged as good but are still striving to get put on more; there is still some skepticism about their ceiling; you always know what you're going to get (efficient offense, hustle, and stout defense; soulful samples, phonte's sublime flow, a little gangsta from pooh); both are led by guys who people are falling over themselves to deify (Ferentz; 9th Wonder); and they are not at all gully. Eh?
> Bowling Green/BG - Duh!
This is the other Ian. THOROUGH post but not being a sports maven you're gonna have to explain this one (above) to me. Is there much more to this than the fact that they share initials?
Yeah, the initials are pretty much it...unless you want to factor in the whole "still on the grind, whether or not you care" angle.
I think UCLA might be Common and Cal might be the Gorillaz. And Lee Corso is Dave Chappelle. And Busta Rhymes? I'm looking at you Illinois.
OK, good looks. Fccking incredible post, man.
Yeah - Gucci Mane is the fucking worst ever. And the quality of the new Jeezy album makes their little tiff seem like a Vanilla Ice v. Shug Night confrontation; why even bother?
this is brilliant!
great work, but who's luda and who's outkast? and is UAB the crime mob?
awesome.
Kennie Bloggins is by far my favorite commenter name of all-time. UAB...I might go with Dirty (not ODB, but authors of "Hit Da Floor"). In fact, I think that'll make the update. I've been trying to think up ones for Luda and OutKast, and I'm sure I'll think of by the end of the game. Keep on keepin' on.
And it don't stop!
Can you make a list of the Power Conference Teams you haven't covered? That way, perhaps we could do some focused scheming.
cool. I thought I was crazy when I saw the UAB and luda updates. I thought crime mob was like UAB in that they're both still comin' up, both had hits last fall and both were surprise successes but still in the shadow of the big boys in their respective neighborhoods (the neighborhood for UAB is the entire state of Alabama here). this is so fun.
Where is Cal? I know we only pop up on the Top 10 every ten years, but hey, we almost beat USC.
Almost.
I have y'all as Common...
MC Paul Barman?!?!
Vandy/Jay-Z -- big picture knowledge that the game is incidental to commercial paper.
That was the best blog post I've ever read.
Trucks
Auburn needs to be in the mix somewhere. If we re-did Bama as The Fugees (we gots more national championships that Lauryn's got Grammys), then I think Auburn would fit nicely as John Forte.
Oh crap, nevermind. I see Auburn is Kanye. Still, I wish we were the Fugees (trying to regain past glory) instead of P frickin Diddy. Oh well.
Have you done UConn or Cincinnati yet? If not, one of them can be Pras: Not fooling anyone (those are basketball schools; No one was paying to see or hear Pras) and just happy to be here (in a conference with a BCS bid; in the fucking Fugees with two musical geniuses).
And by the way, as Papoose would say when talking about Shyne: Give me the keys to Ron Turner handuffs; Give me the keys to Ron Zook handcuffs; Give me the keys to Lou Tepper handcuffs...
Nicely done. I like the Canibus/Mizzou call. Poor Brad Smith.
Seeing as how this is probably my nine-millionth comment left on this site, can I submit my address to get some kind of plastic knick-knack prize sent to me? What do I win? Are you going to practice law in the Souf when you're done at school?
I'm sure there's plenty of Genius Reviews industry swag we can send your way once we get it. Maybe a blue and cream tote bag. People don't even know son, word is bond.
Yo, I had crazy visions!
goddamn that was the best 10 minutes of my day.
How stupid.
So, you take your favorite rappers and put them with the best teams of late?
Straight gay
wheres lil jon?
best article ever, send this man the pulitzer.
What about Uconn or pittsburgh?
You're getting love on the Sabre bro - very well done, if not my kind thing per se.
Well done, Ian.
Hey, Beef- think you can get them to waive my fee at The Sabre? If it makes you feel any better, I think Chris Rix was the Scott Stapp of college football.
Very interesting.
Are you a fucktard?
UConn football should not be put in the same group as Indiana, Duke, and Kansas. We beat Toledo 49-10 in the Motor City Bowl last year.
Before you attempt something of this nature, study up on the teams you're talking about before you look like a jackass.
While I do understand the colossal impact of a Motor City Bowl win, the point with UConn was that they were the recently-added one to the group that looks like the breakout star (i.e., UConn is Fergie). I just doubt that they can achieve THAT much success once they do establish themselves apart from the group.
Come on, Ian. Stop being a fucktard. Everyone knows that UConn's ceiling is the Gator Bowl.
You pegged Washington State University dead-on.
Great Job all around this was a wonderful start to (wasting) my workday
USC is a bunch of hype. Had LSU played them, LSU would have destroyed them....
How about RunDMC = Notre Dame.
One of the founders of the game. They had the ability to crank out hit after hit, then the rest of the field caught up and moved on. Now, they look back on the glory days while everyone else has the "but what have they done lately?" attitude
The good kids at Blue Gray Sky beat me to it...there should be a link near the top of this post that says "Notre Dame/Run-DMC." Very thorough.
Whoops, thats what I get for skipping the fine print.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought of that....
Who do you think should be the Fresh Prince?
run dmc isn't one of the founders of hip-hop...you fuck
Maybe UCF could be Warren G. They ride the coattails of the other Florida schools, like Warren G did the LBC crew.
UGA=Bubba Sparxx (borrowed this idea)
Good list, only your forgeting something. Where the fuck is Michigan?
OK, THAT made me laugh.
Michigan's link is also in the beginning...Joey likens them to Rakim. I like the UCF is Warren G angle. That might require an update. Unlike USF/Cassidy, they knew their role. The Daunte Era = "Regulate"?
Grambling State = Afrika Bambaataa ?
They will always be an institution, but at this point, they're famous for being famous (or in Bam's case, gets respect because he gets respect). They can still move the crowd though.
And when you're doing this in 2006, I'd do Utah = Jeru. They were on to something big, but without Meyer/Primo, they can't quite break it into big time. Plus, Utah is like the East New York of America, except with a lower crime rate.
The Grambling comparison is fantastic.
Aw man, why did my alma mater have to be The Game? I take that as truly a diss, because that dude sucks!
holy shit Ian. I've seen this linked on like eight different boards today. You must be having the mother of all traffic spikes.
I really can't believe it...I mean, I've gotten more traffic than Byron Crawford today!
nice post
BTW Georgia Tech didn't share a title with Wash. in 1990, it was Colorado...even though they got 5 downs on a play to win their game! Sh*t happens though.
I would have to say I disagree with the statement that Tupac legacy does not hold water with his accomplishments. The fact that he died so young, only had one year with death row and contributed not only strong works of art like "Keep your head up", "Brenda Got a Baby" and "Wonder why they call you Bitch" but also wrote enough poetry to fill a book (A Rose Grew From The Concrete). In my opinion he deserves all the credit that is heaped upon him because he was the master of his craft at his time.
pure genius.
this shit's getting shared.
man, I'd be hella surprised if jeezy wasn't up to bigger things this year. 250,000 underground and big props on mtv jams plus boyz n da hood shit might put him on the majors by early fall. he can't go out like yung wun.
I got one:
Miami (Ohio) / Chopper (aka Young City)
http://www.college-football--tic...io/
miami_59.jpg
http://send2press.com/
mediadrome...opper_72dpi.jpg
Share names with occasionally inferior people that were already established in the game (Miami FL; Choppa from the New No Limit). Have the ability to sneak up on you at any given time, but no one pays them any mind if they aren't all the way on top of their stuff. The groups they're perpetually banded with (The MAC; Da Band) keep them from breaking out and being truly spectacular.
UVa is going to go Krisskross on your ass this year....7-4, mediocre bowl, as usual. UVa is nothing son....ya hear me fool?
You fucking idiot....UVa is like Faith Evans....they're everyone's bitch...
take your fucking stooopid searsucker faggit outfits and go analy rape Grohl. You gotz nothing Cavs (hoos for the fags)
hilarious. that was great
As a hip-hop fan and college football fan, bravo on that post. As a Bruin, the comparison with LL was on point. Additional comment: Has tremendous talent at times, but doesn't always have a consistent quarterback.
Brilliant work. I don't know who some of these rappers are, but the explanations/comparisons all seem to make sense. My bro (a Mississippi State grad) sent me the link, and it was well worth taking the time to read. Oklahoma/Dr. Dre was a perfect comparison. As a Tennessee fan, I actually think you were on the mark there. Living in Tampa, I hope that USF's competition in the Big East doesn't end with a murder charge. But we'll see...
UC Davis/Ghostface - home of the true student athletes, 'bout time they stepped up to division 1A.
You did all of the other C-USA schools, except for maybe a couple, and you even did Tulane but you left off Southern Miss? What's up with that?
You know, I've been trying to think of a David Banner match...how USM never occur to me? That's going on there.
Would that be a good thing or bad thing to compare USM with David Banner?? I happen to like him, especially since he is from Mississippi.
Just so you know, the University of Washington did indeed split the 1991 National Title with Miami...so why you changed it, I don't know
I think Auburn might be Suge Knight/Death Row to Alabama's P. Diddy. Always seemingly ready to challenge for greatness, but jail time/probation always beckons.
Oregon State should be House of Pain. Had one moment in the sun, based around Irish Pride...HOP pimped it, the Beavers dismantled it in the Fiesta Bowl. Now largely forgotten, unless you hear a Pringles commercial or OSU hangs with 'SC for a couple of quarters.
Utah? They're who? 3rd Bass? A bunch of white guys who appeared to be going somewhere...over before it really started.
Stanford is Mos Def. Highbrow, good pedigree, has flirted with brilliance, rises to the occasion, but seems better abd more passionate at other pursuits, like hoops/baseball/golf and acting
I would like Matt Schaub, the most overrated QB ever to lay a nice steamy log on my chest. Now that would be some good ole' southern cookin'
I hear DKEs at UVa like to eat man ass
Is UVa going to win the Continental Tire Bowl again? How about the Boise Smurf Bowl....lol
UVA is the QBoy of college football....loves those hairy meatpoles
really well done, dude.
Why all the hostility about UVa? Shit, what's Va Tech ever done? When the Hokies win a National Title you can run your mouth. Until then? shut the fuck up.
USC would ass rape Beamer's guys.
Back to the Auburn as Suge Knight/ Bama as P.diddy thing. They don't get along, wether things seem right or not. The arguements run so deep, people have been killed over it. Auburn/Knight may go on and off the charts, but have produced amazing talent in the past (Bo/Dre). While Bama/P.Diddy claims to be on top of the situation (and many agree), but for the most part just take credit where credit is NOT due (only 6 real titles that aren't retroactive or complete bullshit*/all the "biggie mixes" that P.diddy rode off of). *Bama fans, before you email me, i know... 6 is alot... its more than auburn has, but its still only 6 instead of 12. Get over it.
To answer a few things...
1. Maybe if Matt Schaub has the illustrious NFL career of 1st-round draft pick Jim Druckenmiller, people will respect him. Until then, he's not ready to fill in for Michael Vick doing what Michael Vick does best: losing the games that actually matter.
2. What has Va Tech ever done? Lose to Temple at home. Can't say UVA's ever done that.
OSU vs. USC ROSE BOWL
UVa can't say they've ever played in a game that mattered....enjoy the Smurf Bowl again...heard Boise was lovely in December. VaTech has at least played in a national championship game.
As a true college ball fan I am amazed at how true this is. I fukyn love it. every word.
Sure thing, Romey Rome. Perhaps in your next comment, you can enlighten us on the national championships that Va Tech has won. I'll even let you pick any sport. And maybe you can tell us about the time the Hokie football squad was ranked #1. Oh wait, that was us...if only for a few weeks. Tell an Eagles fan that playing in a championship game matters.
Great article. But don't be so high and mighty about UVA when they haven't done shit in football. At least Tech won the ACC championship last year and could very well do it again this year.
I wouldn't say I'm high and mighty on UVA football...go ahead and read my rapper comparison for them. I realize our program's limitations, but I'm saying that Tech fans need to recognize that if you're gonna generate your school's pride from one source, you should bring more to the table than they do. Until then, they're just Clemson without a title, hot girls or even the ability to make a claim that the other public university in the state is kinda ghetto.
GO GAMECOCKS--I'm betting on Fulmer's "mental block" when it comes to playing Spurrier
Va Tech? Please.
Hope you guys make it to the Rose Bowl. USC will smoke your punk ass.
It's amazing how much my pride in my alma mater increases by the nature of having Shabba Ranks vouch for us. "Trailer Load Of Girls" is the jam.
Why no Ball State? You could match us (my alma mater) with the worst rapper of all time... whomever that might be
the band playing at halftime got more applause from the crowd than the team
as a Bruin by blood... this list is awesome.
two issues, tho...
VT/Mystikal?
correct. sexual conquest aside, they kicked ass. and well... lol. They like to party, and occasionally, it'll get pretty durty.
UVa/Mobb Deep?
"You have your moments, that's about it."
Two jackoffs argueing about who's best in Virginia. What a joke. Why don't you two go have a battle of the trailor homes huh?
We all know who's best in college football....UCLA sucka
How about Pittsburgh/ Wu-Tang Clan...Came out swinging early on. Produced a ton of solo careers. But hasn't been to the top since the first came out. Produces the occasional surprise hit and everyone still knows they ain't nuthin to F@*k wit.
UCLA? Not even in the Top 5 in a weak conference. Surprised UCLA even made the list...they're that soft.
Get ready for another 13-0 from the Dynasty, bitch. Fight On!
Hey jerkoff! It's "arguing" and "trailers".
Your UCLA education is showing.
Dude, congrats. Your blog asplode! Nice work on the article too. Jadakiss, eh?
Where is Lil Wayne in here?
Maybe Lil' Wayne is North Texas...exploded pretty quickly when they went major, the best that still remains in a mostly barren association, but a limited ceiling. I know I missed a lot of rappers, mostly because I thought of teams first. Realize that OutKast isn't even in there, although I think I can make a cogent argument that they're Utah...in fact, I'll probably do that.
And Mack, hopefully you can be one of the few UGA kids who realize that a comparison to Jadakiss is a (mostly) good thing.
Yeah, add to the list, bro. This has been awesome. I've shared it with a lot of people already.
I'm thinking Fresno St. is the Boo Yaa Tribe. Just like these angry Samoans, the roster is just gangsta, just straight fucking thugs, but we all knew they would never achieve anything of signifigance. They may be nothing more than an asterisk in the history of the Game...but if shit jumped off, you'd pray they were in your corner.
That's an excellent comparison, even though I usually think of BYU and UW as teams featuring fat Samoans. The reason I first thought of Freddie Foxxx is because he'll talk shit about studio thugs right in their face, and no one ever claps back. Pat Hill is going at USC this year, and he'd play Oklahoma in a parking lot if they'd let him.
Mista Dobalina - shut your wigger azz up....you don't know who you are fucking with son.
Anybody out there Trick Daddy? Q-Tip? Mos Def? Outkast?
Man! Georgia in a NUTSHELL!!!! Love the Penn State one and especially the Stanford one. As a Bay Area native who attended UGA, that school and football program is so small potatoes it's astounding. And they pretend like Stanford is an actual team!
I'm thinking Tribe might be Utah: had a new style that drove the white kids crazy, but the elements that got them there will probably flounder on their own. As for Trick...Jesus...at this point, we only got teams like Rice left. Any team offhand you know of dat luv da kidz?
Penn state... WOW that was head on! True as hell... I go there and i know most of the team.... BLUE PRINT/ BLUE AND WHITE... something about that color!
GO BUCKS!
Nicely done on the list. My only detraction is my alma mater, Syracuse, and that's because we're so mediocre we don't deserve as eloquent a write up as some of the other teams got.
This is great! I really liked it.
But. . . .
Where's Oklahoma State?
Ashley,
No one cares about okie state. That's why it's not there.
Syracuse won't be mediocre for long....it's back to the glory days of the 90s for the Orange in two years......
I mean, there's only so many rappers out there...anyways, with OK State, I had them lumped in with Pitt and Purdue as successful teams that have no personality or outstanding characteristics. They kinda fall by the wayside, but I'm open to suggestion. As for the 'Cuse, they're in the Big East, so prominence really is never that far away, relatively speaking.
I invented this list like 5 years ago....you're ripping me off, hoo hoo, TELL EM FRED!!!
OA Party Rock!
I loooooove black people!!!!
UVa / KrissCross
They both suck balls
Virginia Tech ain't shit. Never won anything. USC will ass rape them if the Hokies somehow luck into the Rose Bowl.
I love college football and how it's completely legit.....
signed Vince
war Wrecking Crew
war big tits and small nips
war Hoos getting their pansy seersucker's dirtied up and pissed on by BC
Syracuse? What? Is someone going to get Dick McPherson out of his coffin to coach'em up again?
I invented this list like 5 years ago....I've done it all.....you're ripping me off, hoo hoo, TELL EM FRED!!!
Purdue could be Trick Daddy. You've heard of them, they maybe even shocked you. Joe Tiller's guys have a style that occasionally gets them some attention, but ultimately we all know that the "style over substance" approach ain't taking them anywhere.
Any of my crew could take down any team from the crooked dirty south, bring it on son...the South is wack, weak, tired, and pathetic. Go join Mexico
I invented this list like 5 years ago....I've done it all.....you're ripping me off, hoo hoo, TELL EM FRED!!!
Crooklyn ain't all that. Bunch of weak ass, wannabe gangstas.
Westside!
I LOVE FUCKING SHEEP
the Hoos are a bunch of homos that all hug each other and sway back and forth after every score....lol - they are the laughingstock of the ACC
I love UVa
I love Virginia Tech. They made me a lot of money when they let me shove it up their ass in the Sugar Bowl!
Just thought I'd pop in with this 2006 Rose Bowl halftime score...
Southern Cal 49
Virginia Tech 0
I like to munch on Kate C's large cock
and a few days ago, the MPC Computers bowl finished up with a splash in frigid Idaho:
LaTech 45
UVa 7
So when you graduate from Virgina Tech, what the fuck do you do? Work in a tire store?
Now that's funny!
I eat my own jizz while watching old UVa chokes and losses to Clemson....
Ian, I'm getting your sloppy seconds traffic. Much appreciated.
Hey, man! That is funny. I did done graduate from Va Tech, and I do work in a tire store!
Man, this is funny. A bunch of Va Tech jagoffs running their mouths about their second rate program.
Compared to USC, Virginia Tech is barely even D-1. Just a bunch of pretenders.
And you still live in bumfuck!
USC is not a school you should be proud of. I toured there....it could be one of the shittiest places in the county. "FIght On!!!" That's the battle cry when you walk around campus and try to fight your way to class....
USC was shit three years ago for a decade....now everyone there seems to think they can talk shit...talk about bandwagon fans!
I done did graduate from VaTech, too. I drives a tow truck.
Does the owner of the tow truck know you stole it?
Is it too late to change Temple to Mike Jones? So that when people say "Temple Owls," the response is "Who?" You know, if people ever talked about the Temple Owls.
Isn't it true that most Va Tech fans end up working for UVA fans?
If Virginia Tech makes the Rose Bowl against USC, I'm predicting it's the first time the "mercy rule" is used to end a game
USC 70 VaTech 3
I know your heart is in the right place with the Rose Bowl predictions, but the only way Va Tech goes to Pasadena is if they are guests on The Price Is Right.
And by the way, Va Tech fans usually don't end up working for UVA fans. If that were true, there'd be a lot more Hoos working as managers at Long John Silver's.
If VaTech was in the PAC10, they'd go 11-0 as well. It must be nice to place in a pansy league of faggits from the West Coast, right Trojans?
If VaTech was in the Pac-10, they'd never go undefeated because they get ass ripped by USC once a year. Probably lose to Cal, too. And maybe you missed USC's last three bowl games...demolitions of Iowa, Michigan and Oklahoma, three teams from "physical" conferences.
Now I'm guessing as a Virginia Tech grad, you're posting from a public library computer, so make it quick. Another bum needs to get on there when you're through.
Hokie is actually a Monacan Indian word meaning "pole smoker"
Put USC in the ACC and they are just a mid-level team. FSU, UM, VaTech, heck even GaTech and Duke would beat there asses....
USC is mid-level in the ACC? Another VaTech grad sucking on that glass dick...leave the crack alone, son.
The Trojans showed what they'd do in the ACC when they pimp slapped Beamer's pussies last season. Aren't you guys supposed to be a power in that league? Shit, SC won going away.
Where are all the VaTech fans? Must be busy down at the tire store.
Sorry, I was too busy making money on Wall St. My investment banking job does take some time....
go fuck yourself
Sure you were. having a janitorial job on Wall Street doesn't actually make you an investment banker.
but for Hokies, being a janitor is considered skilled labor
Outstanding. Simply Outstanding.
Ja Rule? $@#&, now I can't show my face in public.
...at least I got chicken.
How bout Pitt as De La Soul? Superficially, they don't look anything like they did back in the day. Mostly viewed by the mainstream as a relic, but are actually still very much on top of their game. However, even when they do something that should command the utmost attention, they get completely ignored (Larry Fitzgerald not winning the heisman/The Grind Date getting no recognition from mainstream hip hop fans).
Pitt is like De La Soul. They both suck ass.
This is officially the greatest post I have ever read in my life!
Oklahoma State/Cypress Hill
Dominated a style recently, but now wants to change up game (Thurman Thomas, Barry Sanders, Vernand Morencey, David Thompson, and Tatum Bell all NFL RBs) but now want to switch it up. Cypress going more metal, OSU using Florida's offense. Respected more outside of their home (SoCal being where the Hill is from, but everyone thinks they are NorCal) (everyone loves OU in Oklahoma)
Agriculture background. OSU Farmiung School- cypress Hill into their own Harvests
>>>Oklahoma State/Missy Elliot
Track record is solid, if repetitious. Strings out hits (Thomas-Sanders-Bell-Morency/Rain-Minute Man-Work It). Trying to reinvent themselves (Florida offense/dropping 80 lbs.) and launch a few careers on the side(Les Miles/Tweet)
>>>Pittsburgh/Beastie Boys
Brainy, not as relevant, but a part of some memorable moments and years. Respect must be paid.
>>>Texas Christian/Bone Crusher
Just when they get the respect they deserve, they stop deserving it.
>>>UTEP/Cowboy Troy
Come on...did anyone really think it would work?
>>>Army/Grandmaster Flash
Another of the Old School Masters Battallion. Trotted out now and then for the sake of tradition.
>>>Purdue/Nelly
Put down by the elite pundits, and for the most part, justly. But there is a decent record of consistency present. A little to much nice guy for the hardcore fan, but, after all people don't pay to see a game that totally sucks.
>>>New Mexico/Bubba Sparxxx
Occasionally pops up on the mainstream radar, but rarely a real threat. Just barely popular enough to have been heard of.
>>>San Diego St./Easy E
Part of a great old crew (80's WAC/NWA), but now dead, dead, dead.
>>>Northern Illinois/Daddy Yankee
Most mainstream of a much-ignored block, gave the world a bloody nose and temporarily vanished. Will be back, but even if they're not, someone else from the area will carry the flag.
>>>Texas State/Chingo Bling
Not to be taken too seriously, mostly concerned with laying low and having more fun than allowed by law.
BTW: I'd better see all 119 teams on here, too.
I'd love to reply to all the Va Tech bashing,
however, I'm still laughing about the commentary on how UVA "has failed to impress anyone" so far in the season...while watching the fourth straight game where we've whupped on teams with exponential scores.
and for you 'hoos, lemme put it in simple words. "Exponential" means "really really big"
I read this post every so often and always get a chuckle. Probably one of the most insightful and well thought out posts I've read from anyone. Awesome.
Oklahoma St needs to be whoever Dr. Dre owns because OSU is OU's bitch. The series is the most lopsided in-state rivarly in CFB with 76 OU wins, 16 OSU wins, and 7 ties.
What's up Va Tech? You're still Miami's bitch!
this is the best read I've blown through in what seems like ever.
aw man.. I expected something funny. 
I couldn't get past the first 5! VT = Sex Offenders? I don't even get that one... there aren't any players on their team with a record like that. ?? Please try harder next time...
oh, I see why now. You're just a jealous little UBGay fan. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
everything is suddenly crystal clear
Wow .. that is an amazing list .. that must have taken forever to do ..
Nice try on the VT bashing, maybe you should post the right picture. #5, not #7. And both numbers are kicking ass and taking names.
What's up, Va Tech? Macus Vick, another proud Hokie!
What do you do with a degree from VaTech anyway? Work in a tire store?
you're not old enough to know what UGK has done.....youngster. I'm sure the cats you like got thier shyte from UGK at some point in time. you may know all these rappers but know nothing about the GAME. Find something else to entertain yourself....like Law!
