Comparing College Football Teams to Celebrities

more posts by author

I never thought I'd post a picture of Charlie Weis next to Paris Hilton. Could there be two more different people? Well, they actually have a little more in common than you'd think.

According to SI on Campus' entertaining comparison of college football teams to celebrities, ND fits the Paris Hilton mold.

The Paris Hilton: Teams with plenty of glitz and glamour but extremely shaky talent

Notre Dame

I enjoyed this one as well:

The Renée Zellwegers: Teams only look good in the right situations

Wisconsin, Ohio State, Virginia Tech, Nebraska

I challenge you to create your own.

Not sure exactly how Oregon is lumped with the likes of Hawaii and Louisville. If he means no defense, our secondary is one of the best in the Pac-10. Run D is still suspect. Hawaii and Louisville are still all offense.
