This week's thought of the week is inspiring.
If you can walk or crawl, let's leave this hospital
And take this car far as it goes
Lost and kicked about, sun belt scars remove all doubt
Cover up, this chapter's closed, no, this world ain't all snow

We have been on the Sun Belt bandwagon for a long time and are located behind the buckets where my SEC Network coworkers vomited up their Nashville hot chicken. We've been on that wagon when it didn't have a band and it was trying to roll on four flat tires.
We're talking about the days when Georgia State won a lot of titles. Georgia Southern fans were angry at me because I jokingly referred to them as Georgia Southern not state. The R.O.C.K. was a joke for a decade. The mascot was a rooster and the field was teal, which was the only note of notability about the area.
All of them are bowl season regulars. Thanks to the unforgettable Week 2 Saturday conjured up by them and their conference cohort, the cloud-busting beams of the #FunBelt have giddily sunburned shoulders in the seated bowls of college football's most stories venues. Three big winners were paid more than a million dollars each to slap the faces of the people who had just signed the checks.
It's good. Some stuff is going to have to be fixed.

The following are the post-Week 2 Bottom 10 rankings.
The Minutemen's season ended in a 4210 loss to the University of Tennessee. The University of Toledo lost to UT. Temple University is on the bottom 10 waiting list. The first thing they need to do is TU-ssle with the school. Pat Benatar is the most famous former Seawolves.
It's easy to be distracted by the game that the Rainbow Warriors have looming over the horizon, but first they will host a 1-2 team in Due-cane, as in, dude, cane we finally win a game this season.
It's possible that the first Pillow Fight of the Year of the Century of 2022, when Hawai'i travels to Las Cruces to face the Other Aggies, could happen. Is it possible to see? Did you know it was over the horizon? It was 3,206 miles over the horizon. The second leg of the Hey I'm Jerry Kill, Remember Me, From Minnesota, And I'm A Nice Guy So Please Don't destroy us Too Badly Tour has to be traveled by New Mexico State. In Week 2, the Other Aggies were defeated by the Golden Gophers.
The 49ers travel to Georgia State to face a team that should have beaten North Carolina in the second week of the season. If you won tickets from the Bad Ass Rock Show, don't show up in Atlanta. You are supposed to be at Georgia Southern.

Dana X. Bible was the head coach of Texas A&M from 1917 to 1928. In 29 he moved to Nebraska, where he won six conference titles. He was hired for that job. Knute Rockne, Notre Dame's head coach, told Nebraska administrators that he couldn't leave his beloved Fighting Irish because they turned down their first choice. I think he is the best young coach in America. He is your man if you can get him. Bible ended his career as a head coach at Texas. Bible and Knute went to a bar in college football heaven on Saturday to watch their favorite teams being smoked by the Sun Belt and the Horns blowing a lead against Alabama. The comments were offensive.
Much was made on social media of The Boo at The U as Miami fans shouted down from the stands of Hard Rock Stadium. The Hurricanes were mired in an uninspired 3-7 tractor pull with the Golden Eagles at the end of the first half. The fans were grossed out by Will Hall, who was holding his own wet T-shirt contest on the steamy South Florida sideline.

The University of Connecticut lost to Utah State 31-20. The loss to Alabama was understandable, but then the USU fell to Weber State, which is completely not understandable. The next two games are against Michigan and NC State, so it's not understandable. Three weeks into the season, Michigan will play three Bottom 10 teams. The University of Michigan started with Hawai'i, they are about to face the University of Connecticut.
The majority of people in the state of Colorado agree that Colorado State no longer plays Colorado in the rivalry game. It is a pile of buffalo caca that the best the teams could do was schedule home and away over the next two decades, according to most in the Mile High State. We all agree that the absence will be felt most this year when both schools are 2-0 and playing like their cleats stepped in all of that dung.
Poor #MACtion spent its entire Saturday already looking like the morning after, even though the #FunBelt was in full party mode. The conference did not fare well in non conference games. The Buffalo Bulls Not Bills and the Holy Cross Crusaders are the only two teams that have yet to win a game.
Why not Holy Cross? #GoCrossGo pic.twitter.com/z1sLxTYEw3

The Brown Falcons lost in seven overtimes to Eastern Kentucky and were picked to finish third in the conference. EKU scored on the final play of regulation to force overtime, then stopped the Falcons in the seventh OT to win. If you were wondering why we didn't include Bowling Green in the previous list, you're wrong. The wing of the cardiac ward it opened up after it had its heart broken.
There is a waiting list for Temple of Doom, Colora-duh, ULM, Whew Mexico, and the entireAFCSouth.
