That is great

[Eagle1855]

genius! loved #1 and #7

[pollock]

11 is my favorite.

[Guest GrayEagleOne]

Those are some tough questions.

I think that I can answer #5. For Tennessee, and all of the other SEC schools except Vanderbilt, the answer is 0. At Vandy, he'd have to sit out the whole first quarter.

[SCREAMING EAGLE-66]

---I can't believe yawl are picking on poor Maurice.... after all he is A.D.D and bipolar and "It is not really his fault." If you don't believe that, then just ask his mother. Besides he was home reading his Bible every time that he was falsely accused of those other mean things. His Mom said so!

[UNTFan23]

Shouldn't one of the answers to No 6 be:

c) all Home Depot sales in a three city area

[gksmith]

1, 5, 6, and 15 are OUT-STAND-ING!

It's funny 'cause it's true!!!!!!!

[untStein]

11 is great. Mangino is scary like that.
