Yeah but ESPN already said they would preempt if the game runs long and threatens to interfere with the dodgeball world championship.
CSU may be better than any of the 3 you mentioned, but they have a case and certainly aren't universities that CSU should look down its noses upon.

#32 ARWU ranking among all universities in the world. And, as stated, top 25 earnings for graduates among US state universities. CU is priced where it should be. All tuition seems too high, though.
CSU out of state tuition (assuming full 15 credits): 12,220.42/semester = 24,440.84 per year
Source= CSU bursar office.
CU out of state tuition enrolling this year: $14,976/semester = 29,952 per year.
Source = CU Bursar office.
Difference = 5511.16
Holy **** CSU is a rip off compared to CU. No wonder OOS students prefer CU.
Also, "CU out of state tuition" in google brings up the bursar's office as the first result.
For CSU? http://www.calstate.edu/sas/costofattendance/
:rofl:
Or you could take it one step farther and give it a title like, ***** a CSU Fans says!
just need somebody to link this thread on 'Ramnation'
I'd do it for schidts & giggles but 'Ramnation' is blocked here at work.
Guys, I've been away from the computer for a couple of hours, and this thread has balooned faster than any I have ever seen. I think OMFGasm is some made up user here to jerk your chain. His sheer stupidity is utterly too brilliant. I'm thinking we have been had.

Why do we need more? We've already got an inside source who is one of their best and brightest.
So, by your way of thinking, Harvard should have a 375,000 seat on campus stadium?
Agreed. He's basically Graham's right hand man.
and SEC school stadiums would have capacities of 10,000.
I know right? When I got the questionairre asking if as a CU alum, would I contribute $20MM to a new CSU stadium, I heartily marked yes and returned it like everybody else. That's just money in the bank for the lambs.
Or left hand man, if Graham is in the mood for The Stranger...
It would be interesting if a reporter at one of our esteemed news publications included this tidbit in the next article about the proposed stadium:
"A source within the CSU Athletic Department has quoted Jack Graham as saying that the only way it wouldn't be built would be "over my dead body"
I wonder how that would be perceived by the stadium opposition crowd?

Graham is paying for it himself, with 68% of his own worth.
Because it hasn't been officially announced yet. The concept seems pretty simple.
The silent phase has obviously already begun with the questionnaires. And actually they have already received over a million which was used on ICON and Populous etc
Holy crap over $1 Million??? That is a huge portion!
you have got to be ****ing kidding me. So far you have unveiled plans, have an AD who says this is going to get built no matter what and have the world's greatest feasibility study, yet you don't want to collect money because it is not official. The concept seems simple to you because you are a moron.
Getting the $ won't be a problem. Anyone wanna save this thread and look back at it when its announced in August?
I'm going to laugh at all you Buffoons then

Wait, it hasn't been officially announced yet?
Seriously?
I'm not exactly sure how to break this to you...
don't need a tissue not jacking off to a picture of captain jack, save it for you 2:30 jerk session.
You are dead on. Getting the problem won't be a problem. I would look forward to an actual announcement in August so the world could get actual concrete facts, instead of fairytale information from some message board dude name OMFGasm. Wait, what am I saying? Your information seems totally legit...:rolling_eyes:
