Post Georgia Legislature deals with important issues

Friday February 1, 2008

In an act sure to go down in history alongside “freedom fries” as bold legislative stands, the Georgia legislature took the time to weigh in on the BCS.

The state House voted 151-9 Friday to urge the NCAA to create a playoff system for college football, adopting a resolution that calls the current system “dysfunctional.”

    BTW: UF does get a cut out of every tag sold in another state.
