There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Sorry.  I just got here.

Now, why would one dislike Lousiana State?

Okay, I just checked. 

Apparently Louisiana State is playing Mississippi State today?

Why are Tennesse and Vanderbilt playing today?

I thought that was one of those historic season-ending rivalries, like Ohio State-Michigan, Harvard-Yale, Southern California-UCLA, Oklahoma-Oklahoma State, Washington-Washington State, Texas-Texas A&M, Kansas-Kansas State, &c., &c., &c.

Don't know, Frank.  I just hope the real LSU shows up and not the one that laid down against Alabama.

I just checked.

Tennessee plays Kentucky at its season-ender.

Kentucky?  Are you kidding me?

Despite the disparity in greatness between the two teams, I always thought Tennessee and Vanderbilt were season-enders, the big rivalry (in the historical and cultural senses, not the television-appeal sense).

I further checked.

On slate for next week, the season-enders for the Southeastern Conference:

Georgia Tech-Georgia
Florida-Florida State
Auburn-Alabama
Mississippi State-Mississippi
South Carolina-Clemson

I dunno if Louisana State-Arkansas has any "history," or Vanderbilt-Wake Forest.

Missouri-Texas A&M looks as if the Southeastern Conference wants to relegate them to the poor relative's side of the kitchen table; the "leftovers" who don't seem to "fit in."

It's nice however to see that at least ten teams (five games) respect tradition.

Gonna be a great day to put a smack down on Ga Tech, The Gamecocks/Tigers game is usually pretty good.

Man, what happened to college football?

Checking the rest of the season's schedules, I see Texas ends the season with.....Kansas State.

WTF?

I know, I know, Texas A&M left the Big 12 for the Southeastern Conference, but still, they could've kept the Texas-Texas A&M game as the season-ender.

I agree.  I wasn't thrilled with A&M coming to the SEC to begin with, but they actually put on a good show.  Like you, I wish they kept the rivalry games at the end.

UT and UK are rivals.  They used to play for The Old Whiskey Keg, but I think both schools did away with that several years ago.

In the Big 10, there's a few of the usual classic season-enders:

Michigan-Ohio State
Illinois-Northwestern
Indiana-Purdue

The Nebraska-Iowa game is a forced "rivalry," forced upon us by the effete eastern elites who think that Nebraska and Iowa are very much alike, two peas in a pod, and so it's a "natural" to be our season-enders.  

Actually, it's an Abomination.

And Michigan State-Minnesota and Wisconsin-Penn State?  Why are three fine teams being relegated to "left-over" games in the Big 10?

fransolich's suggestions for season-enders in the Big 10:

Ohio State-Michigan
Indiana-Purdue
Illinois-Northwestern
Nebraska-Wisconsin
Minnesota-Iowa

I dunno what to do about Michigan State and Penn State.  Teams can't have two season-enders, so Michigan-Michigan State is out.  And Penn State needs expelled from the conference--not for the Sandusky mess, but simply because Penn State has the sorriest-assed fans in all of college football.

I figured there was a little bit of history in the Tennessee-Kentucky game, but surely not as much as in the Tennessee-Vanderbilt game.

Actually, from Tennessee's POV, their biggest rival is Alabama.  Third Saturday in October.

The Pacific 10 seems to still respect tradition, but not as much as they should.

The classic traditional season-enders next week:

Washington-Washington State
Arizona State-Arizona
Oregon-Oregon State

There's Utah-Colorado, but because of the sorry-assed fans of Colorado, no point in rewarding Colorado with a notable season-ender.

Apparenty Southern California-UCLA as a season-ender has gone the way, alas, of the horse and buggy.

Stanford-UCLA, and Notre Dame-Southern California next week.

I really dislike how television screwed up old season-ending rivalries.

Man, ever since Nebraska left the Big 12, that conference has been a mess.

The only traditional season-ender is Oklahoma State-Oklahoma, but Oklahoma does play Texas Christian the week following.

I still can't believe Texas is ending its season with Kansas State.

Kansas State?

The Johnny-come-lately, parvenu, flash-in-the-pan Kansas State?

Forget about it.  If State couldn't beat them, you don't stand a chance.
