The Bottom 10 inspiring ideas of the week:
"Anti-radar paint …
Turbocharged …
Nobody can stop us, J.J. …
No one!!!"
(Porsche screams on a hill, where it finds a police blockade.The race car fails to miss the blockade and leaves the road, in an embankment and in the woods.)
– Victor Prinzim, "The Cannonball Run"
This pivotal scene in the classic American film par excellence features Burt Reynolds as racer J.J. McClure and Dom DeLuise as his sidekick, Victor Prinzim. After crashing, the duo is approached by a highway policeman, who angrily asks, "What are you? A kind of nut ?! DeLuise jumps from the destroyed machine, suddenly wearing a hood and a bright orange hood, backed by the spectacular beat of a superhero's themed song.
Dunh Dunh Dunnnnhhh !!!
I have thought a lot about this scene during the second week of the college football season. I was thinking of Burt Reynolds, whom we had just lost at the age of 82, and his air of resignation while his sports car, made to measure for a race from one ocean to the other. other of the country, was now desperately blocked. a tree. That's the look we see on the sideline every Saturday for every Bottom 10 team.
I've also thought about the hero that was revealed at that time. The kind of hero that we have here at Bottom Headquarters 10, located in the warehouse where Lee Corso, the Reynolds University roommate, stores his mascot heads, has always dreamed. Especially during a weekend when Kansas won on the road, Kentucky defeated Florida and Samford nearly broke the beloved Florida State of Burt. If he could, Burt would have snatched the hood of the potential hero from his bald head and hit him in the face one last time.
Captain Chaos.

With our apologies to "him" and Steve Harvey, here is the bottom 10 after week 2.
1. UTEPID (0-2)
The Minors fell to UNLV, a pre-gauntlet aperitif from late September, which includes a trip to Tennessee, a visit to the New Mexico State, and a visit to R-O-C-K at UTSA. In "The Cannonball Run", young Jackie Chan and his science co-pilot realize that the navigation computer of their futuristic Subaru has failed them and that they are hundreds of miles away. Fortunately, they have a rocket that can get them out of the dry desert, endless and hopeless. Maybe the UTEP could get one.
2. State of San No-se (0-2)
Last week, I accidentally called them Trojans. These are the Spartans. Whatever they are, they were deceived in Washington State, 31-0. Reynolds avoided the craze for Trojan / Spartan / Gladiator films in the 1950s and 1960s because he was playing in westerns, but he played late in Jason Statham's play "In the Name of the King: a tale of dungeon siege ". . "As he once explained:" At the beginning of my career, they gave me roles that included as little clothing as possible. As we got older, people in the wardrobe were saying, let's see if we can add more layers. "
3. Central Michigan Chippy-was (0-2)
You do not give up Kansas' first win in 11 years and 46 games and do not end up in the bottom 10. Did you know that Reynolds, despite his ties to the South, was born in East Lansing, located in. Central Michigan?
4. State of regone (1-1)
After the Kansas Nayhawks' victory at CMU, OSU is now the proud owner of the longest streak of defeats on the country's road. If you are someone who really pays attention to college football, you know that there is currently a quarter in street outfit in Corvallis who has played for Nebraska but who is now waiting to play for the game. Oregon State. Both teams could very well use it. If you are someone who really pays attention to "Smokey and the Bandit", you know that there is a character from the movie called Little Beaver.
5. Florida (1-1)
This week's Coveted Fifth Spot would undoubtedly put a smile on the face of the man who played the title role in "Gator", but was a Seminole at the base.
6. Whew Mexico State (0-3)
The Aggies became the first team of three defeats in the country when they were overtaken by Utah State, 60-13. Then comes the rivalry between Rio Grande and New Mexico. Then, it is the first match of the season at the inhabitant at NMSU with Liberty. Speaking of Freedom, I continue to receive emails and tweets from Flames fans eager to fan the flames after including their team in the pre-season. Bottom 10. When I read these venomous verses, I feel in "The Cannonball Run" look at the car that his ambulance is running. He sees Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. disguise and tells DeLuise believer, "Victor, it's two priests driving a Ferrari." When was the last time you saw two priests driving a Ferrari? "
7. Achilles heels in North Carolina (0-2)
The Heels have lost 14 of their last 18 games and have just lost their third consecutive game against East Carolina, a team that opened the season with a loss to North Carolina A & T. So, if you score at home: NC A & T> ECU> UNC. Head Coach Larry Fedora is now feeling the heat. It reminds me … remember when Reynolds and Clint Eastwood wore these fedoras in "City Heat"?
8. UCan Huskies & # 39; t (0-2)
During his career, Reynolds has made many ill-advised career moves. He claimed to have refused the roles of Randle McMurphy in "Flight over a Cuckoo's Nest" as well as Han Solo and James Bond. That was the whiff 007 that still bothered him the most, confessing, "I got to a place where I could hardly watch a tuxedo. I bet Randy Edsall says the same thing about the Maryland Terrapins material.
9. Charlotte 1-and-1 (1-1)
Charlotte's Jerry Richardson Stadium is located just a few minutes south of the Charlotte Motor Speedway, the base of NASCAR's 1983 "Stroker Ace" epic. Reynolds played Mr. Ace, a race car driver contractually obliged to wear a chicken costume to appease his sponsor, a string of fried chicken joints. Coincidentally, one of Charlotte 49ers' biggest football sponsors is also a chain of fried chicken assemblies that also dress up a chicken costume and send them to sporting events. I know it because every time I see said chicken at Charlotte's games, I scream, "I'm Ace Stroker, and the only thing I love more than winning the race, it's about me to feed chicken Torkel! The last time I did that, I think the bird pulled me the bird.
ten. Old Dumbinion (0-2)
Speaking of Charlotte, the monarchs are heading to Queen City this weekend for what should be a week fight of the pillow, very majestic but very wet and windy: episode III. If there is justice in this world now without Burt Reynolds, the winning team's quarterback should pull a Crewe of Paul's "Wrecking" and re-enact the final scene of "The Longest Yard", picking up the opposing coach's game ball and grunting, "Put that in your locker".
List of waiting: Kansas Nayhwaks (1-1), Armadillos of the State of Texas (1-1), Temple of Doom (0-2), SMU Mustaches (0-2), Pur-no (0-2) , Rice minute (1-2), ROCK in the UTSA (0-2), UMess (1-2), Boiling green (0-2), My Hammy of Ohio (0-2), at the moment I'm going to Arizona (0-2).
