A few things to nosh on while you wait for today’s slate of games:

• In the end, it didn’t take too much to entice Chris Petersen away from Boise State – just make him the highest paid coach in the Pac-12 and he’s yours.
• Gus Malzahn makes bank, too.  He ought to send Josh Harvey-Clemons a royalty check.
• Meet the man behind the theme song to SEC on CBS.
• Brian Cook lays down the law at mgoblog (“…if the people who write for this site hate you we will ban you.“) And you think I’m a meanie.
• Stay classy, Gator fans.
• Stuart Mandel suggests there’s something to Jay Jacobs’ BCS lobbying.
• Maryland to ACC:  it’s not us, it’s you.
• The other day I made a little fun of athletic spending outpacing academic spending in Alabama.  But at least they’re spending money on academics, which is more than you can say for Georgia.
• On smarm and snark.
