    Since they have to split the money evenly, I wonder if the women's lacrosse team plays with gold balls and diamond-studded sticks.





    Actually I think they just have to have the same number of men's and women's sports, but it's still a funny image.

    Ohio State will probably go through the season undefeated and get slaughtered by a one or two loss SEC team in a bowl game. How exciting...
