Flag on the Play: Tricks & Treats Edition

College football is a fickle mistress - some times she gives you brand name candy, sometimes you get that weird taffy wrapped in brown paper. (What the heck is that?!)

With the requisite shout out to C&C Music Factory, here's a look at some things that make you go hmm in college football:

Tricks

Is it just me or did the Florida Gators' special Nike duds look like Star Wars Sandtrooper uni's?

This just in - the Tennessee Vols fans have just about had it with Randy Sanders & the Vols coaches:

Once two dullards coached ol' Rocky Top, One thin, the other quite fat. One clapped his hands each time a pass was dropped, The other just dipped Skoal and spat.

Three and out and let's punt the ball again, Defense, get ready, make haste! Wide receiver screens and draws on 3rd and ten, All that talent to waste...

Rocky Top, you'll always be, Home Sweet Home to me. Good ol' Rocky Top, Underachiever of the SEC.

Sign of the Apocolypse? Rutgers is in the hunt for a BCS bowl game.

Treats

Apparently USC is putting the "Bush Push" into the playbook: Reggie Bush got a goal line push this week.

Admit it: It's fun to see the Miami Hurricanes trick-or-treating as the Baylor Bears, even if it is for one day.

At least we can all agree with this guy's sign from ESPN's College GameDay:
