Lot of news yesterday. Let's get to the links!

  1. The SEC is finally moving to a nine game conference schedule like the Big Ten! Cue the "who hates who more?" debate to determine the eventual protected rivalries.
  2. Nearly two years after the hazing scandal and his firing, former Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald has settled with NU.
  3. Ok, follow me here. A dancer at LSU twerks on the balcony of the Pete Maravich Center. The students love it. The administrators don't. The Louisiana AG and governor have opened investigations and have referred to the event as a "degenerate twerk performance." Classes start on Monday.

Also! We'll have live threads for the games tomorrow. Pop in, say hi, watch a game or two, yeah?
