Hi Jeff, check this out, thanks!

Does an upsetting loss to Iowa ruins Penn State national title hopes?

They’re now victims of BCS fraud!

Jeff,

Loved your book, Boys Will Be Boys. As a long time Cowboys fan, it brought back a lot of memories as to how dominant their 90s teams were. But at the same time, I read a lot of it with my mouth wide open. Well done!
