Off Topic: College Football
I love college football. Especially since my alma mater – Northern Illinois University (NIU) – has ended up among the top teams in the Mid-American Conference the past couple years.
This year, we have the nation’s leading running back in a 5′7″ and 177 lbs body named Garrett Wolfe. He is currently averaging 210 yards-per-game, which is 39 yards more than the next highest!
You may think, “Yeah, but against what kind of teams is he racking up these stats?”
Well, he ran for 171 yards and caught 5 passes for another 114 yards in their opening game this season against Ohio State.
Yes… THE Ohio State University Buckeyes, the #1 team in the country.
Although my NIU Huskies lost, you have to be impressed with Wolfe’s play.
That’s why I’m rooting on Garrett Wolfe for Heisman!
Any other SEOs out there that follow college football? Who’s your team?
Holla!

I think we had this discussion in the bus on the way to the Google Dance this past year… didn’t we? Anyway, I agree with you that NIU is amongst the top teams in the Mid-America conference. Garrett Wolfe is an incredible player and worthy of the Heisman, however I just don’t know yet if he’ll get it.
The team I like more and more this year is Michigan. Each week they surprise me more and more, and I thoroughly love the beating they gave to the then ranked 2nd Notre Dame. An Incredible game!
Good job Disco… now you’ve got me thinking about this Saturday’s games instead of on the report I’m supposed to have finished by the end of the day. Lol.

Disco,
Being in Chicago I follow NIU quite a bit, and def. agree that Garrett Wolfe is for real. What he did to Ohio State (not THE, I refuse to use that moniker) was the true litmus test that should quell the doubters who say his competition is weak. My only concern for him is that he doesn’t play on one of the coasts, so therefore ESPN will basically ignore him.
I hope the Bears get a shot at him in the draft, but I doubt he’ll drop that far.

Hey Karl – I do remember talking about this on the bus to Gdance. NIU is my team, but I must admit that Michigan is doing great this year…
theppcbook – I didn’t know you were in Chicago. I love that city. I just moved to the OC from there about 3 years ago. My best friends are in Wrigleyville and I visit at least 6 times a year! How cool would it be if Wolfe ended up with the Bears!

Da Bears…rule
I’m north of Wrigley by 10 blocks or so. Close enough I can just hear the crowd when they score…which means I hardly ever hear them.
Hit me up on email next time you’re in town, i’ll buy the drinks and you can tell me some SEO secrets
