Official 2013 Chattanooga, Who is laughing now? Thread

[chattownmocs]

This will be the thread that I go to throughout the year. Rather than laughing at all of our victims individually with new threads, we will keep it all here. This season is several years in the works and finally seeing it all pay off at the expense of all the haters will be fulfilling.

[BisonFan02]

I will make sure this one doesn't disappear after week 5.

[NoDak 4 Ever]

I will make sure this one doesn't disappear after week 5.

HA! Beat me to it.

Oh man, this build-up is killing me!

hate is chattanoogese for reality.

[bjtheflamesfan]

I will simply state that should UTC again wet the bed and miss out on not only the SoCon and the playoffs but once again lose the games that truly matter, oh and once again fail to win more than six games, your logical fallacy ridden threads will be the subject of great comfort and amusement to the rest of the community after your disappearance

9 of 22 starters have <1 season's worth of experience (including 4 with 0 career starts) and that is the second best team in the country? If that isn't something that is rife with logical fallacies then I don't know what is...

[Professor Chaos]

This thread has hall of fame written all over it.

[chattownmocs]

9 of 22 starters have <1 season's worth of experience (including 4 with 0 career starts) and that is the second best team in the country? If that isn't something that is rife with logical fallacies then I don't know what is...

Unfortunately for another moronic argument by you, we have many career Starts from backups. We have a backup QB with multiple starts(Terrell Robinson), 3 backup RBs with multiple starts(Kenny Huitt, Keon Williams, Marquies Green.) A back up WR with multiple stars(Marlon Anthony) A backup DE with multiple starts(Toyvian Brand) 2 backup DT with multiple starts (Josh Freeman, Toyvian Brand.) And a backup S with multiple starts (Dean Haynes)

You are exposed as a know-nothing nimrod, yet again.

[bjtheflamesfan]

Again with the ad hominem fallacy...chattown if you want to be taken seriously you really need to learn to take dissenting opinions a lot better than you currently do...especially when your counterpoint includes at least one logical fallacy in it

[SU DOG]

I really don't think that UTC will beat Samford at Samford this year.

[chattownmocs]

Again with the ad hominem fallacy...chattown if you want to be taken seriously you really need to learn to take dissenting opinions a lot better than you currently do...especially when your counterpoint includes at least one logical fallacy in it

You have never, ever, even come close, to making a legitimate counter-argument. You are ALWAYS incorrect on your facts, and make false assumptions. Just because someone started last year, or 2 years ago, doesn't mean they will start this year. And even if we didn't have starts among our backups, 13 of 22 starters with over a full year of starting experience would Still be a lot.

I really don't think that UTC will beat Samford at Samford this year.

Your coach better come up with something new offensively if he wants to move the ball. What you have been doing doesn't cut it against our defense.

[bjtheflamesfan]

My point chattown, which you seem to have missed, was not that UTC did not have players with experience, but that you have a number of players that lack experience, which most would consider a concern. a good coach setting up his gameplan for UTC will see said lack of experience, and will attack those players specifically.

Dude the only player that I just listed without plenty of experience is Tolerance Shepherd the Redshirt Freshman. I only tossed him out there because of the huge spring he had. There is a good chance it will be Kenny Huitt, Keon Williams, or Marquis Green. All of which have plenty of experience and multiple starts. Not to mention the fullback Taharin Tyson who has taken all of the snaps at FB the last 2 years. Now that we don't have a FB in our offense he will likely move to RB.

We could just change the name of that song to "Chattown's October AGS Hymn" and relyricize it to something like like this....

It's been a mystery... and still I try to see...
Why a team that looks so good can be so bad
Caught on a one way street... to more bitter defeat...
I'll come back somehow, some day

CHORUS
Huesman throws the pick...
Dothard can't hit dick...
That's why I'm crying now
Shepherd was born to run...
Until he hits the one...
That's why I'm crying now

So many pimping threads... so many preaseason creds...
Yet still we go six and five
And in my homer's rage... I couldn't act my age
I lost my job cooking fries

Only so many tears I can cry....
Til the heartache is over and now I can say
I'll be.... back in July

Those are good numbers.

I like this number: 1984.

GTFO.

[Smitty]

So here is the problem... Since App and GSU don't count UTC will probably win the SoCon, then we will have to hear him talk about this for the next 20 years. It will either be Wofford or UTC in my opinion but only because the 2 top teams won't count.

Is it possible to put an asterisk on this year if that does happen?

[bjtheflamesfan]

Those are good numbers.

I like this number: 1984.

GTFO.

Here are a few more good numbers:

9...that is the number of losing seasons UTC has had since the dawn of the 21st century (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011)
2...according to the UTC media guide, since stringing together 10 straight winning seasons from 1976-1985, the Mocs have put together back-to-back winning seasons 2 times (1990-1991, 2009-2010)
67...according to Wikipedia (and with verification from Pete'sPowerPoll.com), 67 different current FCS teams have made at least one playoff appearance since UTC's one appearance in 1984 (20 current FBS teams made at least one appearance when they were FCS teams since UTC's one appearance)
49...Once again according to Wikipedia (with verification from Pete'sPowerPoll.com), of the 67, 49 made their first appearance since UTC's lone appearance in 1984), 34 of which have at least one win in the playoffs, 7 of which have won at least one national championship.
6...According to Wikipedia (and some significant research on the SoCon website) 6 different schools have won at least a share of the Southern Conference since UTC last won it in 1984: Marshall, Appalachian State, Georgia Southern, Wofford, Furman and The Citadel

[smallcollegefbfan]

Guys don't feel bad. Chattown is the same person who said Jeremy Kimbrough is a fat out of shape and slow linebacker yet Kimbrough ran a verified 4.56 and 4.59 in the 40-yard dash for NFL teams. For those who don't know the average NFL linebacker runs a 4.70 or so, meaning Kimbrough is faster than your average NFL linebacker. I didn't say better, just faster. Then when I said it he ignored the fact and said I was wrong, even though I posted links to back up what I said as a fact. He can't say anything about lack of facts or ignoring them.

With that said, please guys don't let this thread die. This is just too much. I can't put LOL enough in one post! haha

BJ,

You can't expect him to be too mature. Someone from UTC told me he is only 16 years old, meaning he started posting on here when he was like 11 or 12?

6...According to Wikipedia (and some significant research on the SoCon website) 6 different schools have won at least a share of the Southern Conference since UTC last won it in 1984: Marshall, Appalachian State, Georgia Southern, Wofford, Furman and The Citadel

Ouch. xlolx

This should be Nooga's year though. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Mocs capture at least a share of the SoCon title and make the playoffs. They pretty much have to by default with GSU and App being ineligible. xthumbsupx

[blueballs]

Here are a couple of other cool numbers:

13- semi finals appearances for GSU since UTC's last playoff appearance.

8- title game appearances for GSU since UTC's last playoff appearance.

6- national titles for GSU since UTC's last playoff appearance.

2- times GSU has set the all time home winning streak record since UTC's last playoff appearance.

1- time GSU has set the all time playoff consecutive home winning streak since UTC's last playoff appearance.

1- time GSU has set the all time record for playoff wins since UTC's last playoff appearance.

[smallcollegefbfan]

So here is the problem... Since App and GSU don't count UTC will probably win the SoCon, then we will have to hear him talk about this for the next 20 years. It will either be Wofford or UTC in my opinion but only because the 2 top teams won't count.

Is it possible to put an asterisk on this year if that does happen?

I still don't think UTC wins it. I'm saying either Wofford, Samford, or Citadel with UTC finishing 2nd or 3rd among teams eligible. Nobody from the SoCon can truly brag unless they beat App and GSU. Right now those are the two best teams in the league and we can truly tip our hat to the SoCon champ if and only if they beat those two teams as well.

Sorry I had to insert some truth here.

Sad that their first postseason in 20 years would come by default. I guess we better let him enjoy his fantasy land for now. It's all over after the Moc's trip to Statesboro in Week 4.

LOL, these chumps think I am talking about default SOCON titles. I'm talking about 8-0 in the SOCON and National championship.

I still don't think UTC wins it. I'm saying either Wofford, Samford, or Citadel with UTC finishing 2nd or 3rd among teams eligible. Nobody from the SoCon can truly brag unless they beat App and GSU. Right now those are the two best teams in the league and we can truly tip our hat to the SoCon champ if and only if they beat those two teams as well.

That being said, according to the UTC media guide they have never swept App State and GSU in the same season since GaSou started appearing on their schedule in 1993 as a SoCon foe (split a few times though)

[cmaxwellgsu]

LOL, these chumps think I am talking about default SOCON titles. I'm talking about 8-0 in the SOCON and National championship.

Chatty couldn't go undefeated against your local high schools. Your talent level is way overrated, and Huesman would be outschemed by a flag football coach.....

[bjtheflamesfan]

Well that's pretty big talk from somebody who according to the UTC media guide, Wikipedia and PetesPoll.com has not only never won more than 5 SoCon games in a season (joined in 1976 according to Wikipedia, started counting SoCon games in 1977 according to UTC media guide), but has played in one I-AA/FCS playoff appearance in school history (the previously referenced 1984, where they got hosed 37-10 by current Sun Belt member Arkansas State according to PetesPoll.com)

Fortunately it literally means absolutely nothing. Regardless of what happened in the past, if you can put together a championship caliber team, you have a chance to win a championship. Which is what they have done here.

[bjtheflamesfan]

LOL, these chumps think I am talking about default SOCON titles. I'm talking about 8-0 in the SOCON and National championship.

As I said, that would require beating both App State and GaSou which has never happened in UTC history...and history doesnt exactly point to that happening this year either even when they aren't even eligible

"We are an experienced team who played in several scenarios last year with overtime losses and come-from-behind wins so we will be ready for anything.," Huesman stated.

[bjtheflamesfan]

Fortunately it literally means absolutely nothing. Regardless of what happened in the past, if you can put together a championship caliber team, you have a chance to win a championship. Which is what they have done here.

Its one thing to put that sort of a team together...its another entirely to actually win said championship, and that means actually having the mental cajones to hold onto a second half lead, which according to my research, has proven impossible on a few occasions in "games that matter" (in recent memory, 2010 vs App State coughed up a 28-14 halftime lead and lost 42-41, 2011 vs. The Citadel coughed up a 27-0 3rd quarter lead and lost 28-27, 2011 vs. Wofford coughed up a 27-14 4th quarter lead and lost 28-27

Are you saying we did have a championship caliber team in 2010 and 2011? Damn, I didn't even think we had one in 2010. If those were championship caliber teams, this one is definitely a national favorite.

[bjtheflamesfan]

Im not saying that actually. What Im saying is that if you have a championship caliber team as you so claim, you are going to have to finish games, which previous teams have failed to do as referenced by the examples noted.

[bjtheflamesfan]

I wanted to keep history as recent as possible because those were the most glaring examples in recent memory. (that and boxscores arent available online past 1998) I have to fill out some paperwork for a new job right now but my point is, the championship caliber teams don't cream all over themselves in the second half and lose games when they are leading

The best you can come up with is when these seniors were sophomores and freshman? You can't even come up with a blown lead from last year? You should go ahead and find something from '98.

[bjtheflamesfan]

The best you can come up with is when these seniors were sophomores and freshman? You can't even come up with a blown lead from last year? You should go ahead and find something from '98.

You know what...I must have missed that GaSou game last year where you were up 21-10 at half against the #2 team in the country and were outscored 14-3 in the second half and then scored 7 points total in the three overtimes and lost that game too

I didnt find anything in 1998 but I did find a pair of gems from 2000:

East Tennessee State: Led 15-3 at half, outscored 21-7 in the second half and lost 24-22
Furman: Led 17-14 at half over the #6 team in the country (at the time), outscored 24-14 in regulation in the second half, lost in overtime

[GATA]

The best you can come up with is when these seniors were sophomores and freshman? You can't even come up with a blown lead from last year? You should go ahead and find something from '98.

So when Chatty gets beaten by App State, GSU, Wofford, and Samford this year are you going to just "wing it" when it comes to the excuses?

Or are you already working on the excuses for the losses now so you can just roll them out expeditiously as the season progresses.

Here are the boxscores for the two other games I references above (thanks to the UTC athletics site for having those available):

Furman November 18, 2000 (for personal context, that was my senior year in high school): http://www.gomocs.com/fls/17700/stats/football/2000/fur1118.htm
East Tennessee State November 11, 2000: http://www.gomocs.com/fls/17700/stats/football/2000/utc11112.htm


I will grant the GaSou game because you actually were down 21-10 in that game (although that actually raises a completely different point), which you could have actually pointed out instead of just saying that I was wrong. By doing that, I see my error, am grateful for it being pointed out and all parties are thus edified and proper maturity is thus displayed.

Chattanooga did. In a facility that isn't owned by UTC. Don't remember any talk about UTC during those games, so that fact is pretty much irrelevant.

Did he just make the claim that hosting a championship game in which your team has no part of, is better than winning one?

If you point them out to me (like you could have done before) then I will take note as you request. You rallied against GaSou last year and couldnt score more than 7 points in three overtime periods against the #2 team in the country.

What UTC needs to do to turn the corner is finish (and by that I mean win) those games against teams like GaSou and App State and not cream all over themselves with the game on the line

Of course if you're someone who's never been laid (or had your team win a championship) you probably don't know any better.

It is? Are you f'ing kidding me? Newsflash, UTC got ZERO publicity from hosting the national championship because UTC didn't host it, the city of Chattanooga did. During those games there was no mention of UTC, no UTC logo, not even a shot of the UTC campus. That stadium isn't even on the UTC campus. Interestingly, in all the many visits I made to Chattanooga, weather to play against UTC or for a championship game, I never once went to the UTC campus, nor do I remember having seen it. So much for your so called exposure.

You...can't....be....serious. A city owned stadium hosting a national championship garners publicity to a local team that had 3 winning season, no playoff appearances, a 50-96 record, and 7 seasons with 3 wins or less during that span? If UTC was even mentioned during the national championship games, it was to say how sad it is that the local university would never be playing in the national championship hosted in its own city.

BTW, I used espn.com to check their records but could only get from 2002 on, so had to resort to the Mocs website for 1997-2001, and I'm not sure about the accuracy of the info. The Mocs website claims they were 4-8 in 2002, with a 56-7 WIN over West Virginia xnutsx and a 13-3 WIN over TTU xliarx when in fact they lost both by that score.

To drive the point home, UTC got as much national attention for a FCS title game at a city-owned stadium as Georgia State gets for the Peach Bowl (or whatever it is now called) being played at the Georgia Dome. That is to say, none.

It's been a mystery... and still I try to see...
Why a team that looks so good can be so bad
Caught on a one way street... to more bitter defeat...
I'll come back somehow, some day

CHORUS
Huesman throws the pick...
Dothard can't hit dick...
That's why I'm crying now
Shepherd was born to run...
Until he hits the one...
That's why I'm crying now

So many pimping threads... so many preaseason creds...
Yet still we go six and five
And in my homer's rage... I couldn't act my age
I lost my job cooking fries

REPEAT CHORUS

Only so many tears I can cry....
Til the heartache is over and now I can say
I'll be.... back in July

REPEAT CHORUS

3 more pages of dumb ass misinformation. Finley Stadium was built in 1997 for Chattanooga football, UTC chipped in over 3 million dollars and the rest was subsidized by the city and private donors. The same way cities subsidize stadiums for pro teams the majority of the time. That doesn't make your stadiums better or school better, it makes your cities weak. The school doesn't host the national championship, the same way teams don't host the super bowl when it is in their stadium.

The school's athletic programs are branded as "Chattanooga" Chattanooga's team" etc etc.


The $28.5 million project needed supporters to become a reality and got plenty of them. Donations from the private sector ranged anywhere from a 10 dollar bill to $1 million. In fact, nearly 40 percent, or $10.2 million of the project, came from private donations. The City of Chattanooga and Hamilton County contributed $13 million, the State of Tennessee gave $3.5 million, and the University donated $2.9 million.

Im no math whiz but I don't think $2.9M is over 3 million (I will add to that by stating that most of your information is accurate as per the above quote, though you did forget the state government's contribution to the project as noted)

[TheRevSFA]

3 more pages of dumb ass misinformation. Finley Stadium was built in 1997 for Chattanooga football, UTC chipped in over 3 million dollars and the rest was subsidized by the city and private donors. The same way cities subsidize stadiums for pro teams the majority of the time. That doesn't make your stadiums better or school better, it makes your cities weak. The school doesn't host the national championship, the same way teams don't host the super bowl when it is in their stadium. Congratulations rejects, it doesn't change the obvious facts that it was played in the home of the Chattanooga Mocs. The school's athletic programs are branded as "Chattanooga" Chattanooga's team" etc etc.

I thought Chattanooga's team was the Lookouts?

Chattanooga's (as well as the entire state of Tennessee and even shattowmmocs himself) team is the UT Vols.

Whether it's default or not how come Chattanooga didn't win it with all their NFL prospects and BCS talent? Show us the Chattanooga football trophy room!

Here are a few more good numbers:
6...According to Wikipedia (and some significant research on the SoCon website) 6 different schools have won at least a share of the Southern Conference since UTC last won it in 1984: Marshall, Appalachian State, Georgia Southern, Wofford, Furman and The Citadel

Not so sure about this one. Didn't Elon win it one year? I swear I remember seeing a banner.

Not so sure about this one. Didn't Elon win it one year? I swear I remember seeing a banner.
According to Wikipedia no...Elon has never won OR shared the SoCon football title. In fact once App State and GaSou head to the Sun Belt, only four current members of the conference will have at least 1 title: Chattanooga and Wofford (tied at 4), Furman (who will take the sole lead at 12) and The Citadel (2). Elon has come close (2nd to App State in 2009, 3rd behind App State and Wofford in 2008) but much like UTC since 1984, they have not reached the top of the mountain.

[Eagle22]

Didn't dawn on me until now, but I kind of thought App would have a great shot this season of wrestling the "most titles in SoCon history" moniker away from Furman. Both are tied with 12. Given the preclusion from conference championships, it appears they will stay tied. Furman will (at some point) take the sole lead back. It'll take a while for anyone else to catch up.

I don't know how long it will take for the Mocs to make up the 8 conference championship difference between them and Furman right now, but my guess is it'll be a while. It took App State years of being one of the most dominant programs in FCS history just to tie Furman's mark.

They'll just find a new daddy is all.

Since Wofford came to FCS, they are 11-5 vs Chatty.

Furple is 27-15 against them.

Plenty of candidates that can step up to carry on the SoCon tradition of consigning Chatty to also-ran status.

The use of facts will not be tolerated here! Chattown has stated that UTC is the greatest team in all of football and therefore it is so. Better just get that through your head! I mean hell, they hosted the FCS national title games for 14 years! Nobody else has done that.

One thing good about them hosting it is that you knew they weren't going to play in it. I remember when Marshall hosted it and people called the playoffs the Marshall Invitational. The only dominance that happened was App State's dynasty during that run. I will honestly say it's good to see the host site not have a team in the title game. It makes it too one sided in the stadium and takes away from the "neutral" site the title game is suppose to be.

It looked like NDSU had quite the turnout and SHSU did not dominate the attendance at all? What was the percentage like of SHSU to NDSU fans? I know Marshall completely dominated when at home while App State dominated Chattanooga. App brought more fans in one game than UTC had the entire season combined and not since that had the title game been dominated by one school so much. It appeared as though SHSU and NDSU both had a lot of fans with not one having 85-90 of the fans in attendance.

2011 was pretty much a split straight down the middle between NDSU and SHSU fans, with isolated pockets of yellow-clad NDSU fans interspersed in the SHSU sections. This past year was much more heavily in favor of NDSU - I know our group of about 40-50 was squarely in the middle of the SHSU section and we were far from the only ones. Probably 65-70% NDSU fans.

I saw 2 total sections out of 33 that were predominantly Sam Houston. Otherwise almost every other section was heavily, very heavily NDSU.

Sounds like then the only times in the last 20 years or so that 90+% of the fans from one school were when Marshall hosted it and App won the 3 in Chattanooga. SHSU may be the home team but their fan base didn't engulf everyone else. It looked like what you said from TV but I figured I would ask to make sure. I could certainly tell both teams had their fair share of fans. Ask App about when they played UMASS and Delaware. There was like one section on one side that was UMASS or UD but 80% of that side and 100% of the other side were clearly App fans. Marshall dominated in the same way from what those who went to those games told me. At least the last couple years both teams were really well represented.

If a fan base that doesn't travel well makes it to Frisco opposite of NDSU, it would have been a lot more skewed than it was. SHSU being 3 hours and change away helped them.

Brock Russell, who sat out all year last year after transferring...and likely won't see the field this year either, is pretty weak sauce.

And of course that was laughable, they have one guy back who was out and didn't play in the playoffs, and his replacement who only started in the playoffs because the other guy was out.

According to your website you have 14 starts at DT returning. Shaetz 4, and Perry 10. You guys run a 4-3 right? Where are your other 16 starts?

Drevlow shows up on the depth chart as a NG for some reason. He started all 15 games. Luecke got credit for 1 start. The Bison regularly rotate their 2 deep and Luecke must have seen the field first for a game.

Well then, you actually have a good argument than because he appears to be your best player at DT. I have no idea why he is down there by himself as the lone "NG" on the team.

To also note, Perry had 14 starts and Drevlow had 13 starts in the 2011 natty champ run too.

Having watched GSU face both Chatty and NDSU the past two years I can state with all confidence that NDSU is light years better at every level of the defense than Chatty

If NDSU had Chatty's defense they wouldn't have any NC's, let alone two.

You guys can talk all the BS you want. From a common opponents perpective Chattanooga stacks up well with NDSU defensively last year. Of course these are just triple option opponents and aren't truly reflective of the whole season, but on a per play basis it wasn't even close.

You just said you watched both games both years and came to the conclusion that NDSU was better at every level by far. That was a moronic comment. 2011, sure, we will go that. 2012, you scored 22 points by starting inside the 25 including 15 in OT. Chattanooga's Dline, for instance had it's way with Georgia Southern's offensive line and Georgia Southern's Oline dominated NDSU's dline. So how you came to the conclusion that NDSU's dline was better last year based off of that game is nonsense. It was just more trash spewed by you that I just disproved. You need to come up with better material.

And not to pour salt on any wounds :D , but if I recall correctly, NDSU only has 1 less win over Georgia Southern than Chatty does....tough to do considering you guys have been playing each other since 1984.

Man, I'm way late to the party. I guess that's what I get for disappearing during the offseason to focus on "other sports."

But man, I'm glad this is here. It'll be a one-stop shop for all my entertainment needs on this site. Sort of like a Toys R Us! Why go to, say, Wal-Mart to find toys when there's a whole dang store full of them, am I right? Similarly, why to go to a separate thread for the entertainment that ensues around every UTC game when there's one, right here, that will consist of nothing but that?!

This is brilliant! Thanks chattown!

The game is being produced by the Mocs athletics department, in conjunction with the UTC campus and the Southern Conference. Fans will not only see a top-quality, high-definition broadcast of Chattanooga Football, but will also hear about many of UTC’s Points of Pride. These include being one of only three public universities in the south selected as a U.S. News & World Report Best Value, ranked as a top regional Master’s universities in the South and named a 2013 College of Distinction.

Chattanooga didn't make this list of NATIONAL universities as a best value. They did make the REGIONAL list in the south at #14 of 15. Behind such schools as Mercer (#1), App State (#7), Citadel (#8), and Samford (#11). Elon was #15.

Creative wording is creative.

As far as college of distinction... that's like being named to the who's who of high school graduates. If you want your school added, you just pay some $$$.

UTC's defense is very good and while they aren't as good as NDSU they are up there and maybe just a step away.

Chattanooga has a great DE, very good DT, solid LB, and two pretty good DBs but they are not nearly as good as NDSU in terms of an entire unit. Chattanooga is a good defense and puts up good numbers overall but they are two big differences.

1. All 11 of NDSU's starters are very good players while just half of UTC's are stars.
2. NDSU has a solid 2nd string while UTC is very thin in terms of depth. There is a huge drop off from Lott to his backup but NDSU doesn't have quite the drop off on their unit.

Who cares? We are hosting CSS, we are running the entire broadcast. Read the article and cry me a river. David Blackburn is the man.

[walliver]

UTC will broadcast the UT Martin game will be broadcast on CSS. This will basically be a 3 1/2 UTC infomercial. Mocs will have the CSS game along with 4 ESPN3 games this season. Awesome.

I will credit UTC with trying, but the returns from these types of broadcasts are small. GSU tried this several years ago, televising their own games at their own expense, and abandoned the effort. The SoCon decided that CSS games were not worth the expense. One problem is that CSS is not available on either DirecTV or Dish.

Even though the game is on a Thursday, it will have major competition on ESPN and ESPN2.

To put a finer point on it, UTC has had more different mascot combinations over their athletic history than wins over Georgia Southern in football.

It's an absolutely huge deal. Especially that UTC is producing it. This is not SS, it is CSS. While it may not be in as many households, it has a reputable college football brand, unlike SS.
