    Someone contact Interpol. I'm worried about Blitz.

    Alabama, of course, would go on to win the game, but Clemson would make it close. :mad:

    Ok. Let's get going on using the word "win" as a noun. Hate it. Or the stubborn insistence of using the word "Prep" when almost no one calls them that. They are high schools.
    I'll tell you why in both cases: it's lazy desk guys who keep up the usage of those two words in those contexts because they fit in a one-column head.

    What does the W mean at the top of the column in the standings?

    Totally agree with "prep," even though I was once a "Prep Sports Editor." But I've never heard the complaint about win.

    Also, if a victory is a win (verb), why isn't a defeat called a lose?

    I've seen fans refer to Butch Jones' sending Dooley's players packing as "gitshirted."
