2009 Fulmer (Memorial) Cup Begins!

PodKATT · Jan 12, 2009

And so it begins...

New rules for this season:

Pay attention! NEW SH!T CONTAINED!!! There is something to be said for a program that has eight or nine multiple small arrests in a single offseason losing to a program with only two or three arrests of spectacular nature. To counter this effect, we propose a force multiplier tacked on to a program after the third arrest regardless of the charge to account for the shame brought on a program when the eighth arrest comes rolling down the pike. It works like this:

Third arrest: No bonus

Fourth arrest: Four bonus points awarded.

Fifth arrest: Five bonus points awarded, and so on and so on.

This may seem overly cruel, but consider that Iowa, a program undoubtedly the most lawless over the brief span of the Fulmer Cup’s existence, has never won the Cup despite having people arrested constantly for little two and three point crimes. Contrast this with Alabama, who earned a crown last year based largely on the tremendous points garnered by Jimmy John’s booger sugar operation and its subsequent busting.

The multiplier applies to separate incidents only. Five guys arrested at once at a frat party will not kick in the multiplier. It is meant to emphasize the pattern and lack of discipline overall, not supercharge already sensational scores from single incidents.

And like all good college awards, Here's a top 10 preview:

1. West Virginia
2. Iowa
3. Alabama
4. Texas Tech
5. UCLA
6. Colorado
7. Virginia
8. SMU
9. Wisconsin
10. Michigan

3. Alabama—Bama presaged its return to on-field prominence by winning the 2008 Fulmer Cup, as we discovered that "making sure your players aren't dealing coke" is among the sh!t that Nick Saban doesn't have time for. We expect another strong performance this season but one that falls a bit short of back-to-back glory.

4. Texas Tech—The head coach is a pirate, and there's absolutely nothing to do in Lubbock that doesn't involve drinking, fighting, firearms, or, apparently, cocaine distribution. We look for the Red Raiders to make as big a splash in the Fulmer Cup as they did in the BCS standings this year—a fast start and maybe even an SI cover story before fading down the stretch in July and August.

Amazing that Tenn isnt even dishonorable mention for the 2009 Cup. It will ruin their string of never missing a top 10.

Here is Fulmer spitting out a unit.
