Corn Flakes: 2014 Fall Practices Have Begun

Out for a few days vacation, but 2014 fall football practice has begun all around the land, so I thought I'd take some time to throw up a Corn Flakes today!

BTW, as I'm putting this together, some dude on ESPN College Football Live just referred to "Fun Loving Bo Pelini". Uh, wow.

I used to be a faithful ESPN College GameDay viewer... over the past couple years, I haven't bothered. It seems to be more and more fluff rather than providing any useful information. Celebrity pickers do nothing for me, and adding Paul Finebaum to the line up is like adding a side of stacked shit to your meal - stomach turning.
