Comments and suggestions are always welcome! Standard 1024×768 (well ok so it’s 701 due to the new column)

Both the ACC Helmet Schedule and the SEC Helmet Schedule will be maintained throughout the season and can always be obtained from the sidebar to your right Just look for these icons every Monday after a game weekend for the new one!!

Just finished up the ACC and SEC Sporting Gnomes 2008 Helmet Schedules (or SG08HS’s if you will). Just have to put the finishing touches on the servers and html and we will have them rarin to go. I apologize in advance for errors in the schedules and appreciate any corrections that you guys might find and mention. You will notice that I have changed the size of the image this year from a standard 1024×768 to accommodate the new column of conference record along with the standard overall record. This should be fun maintaining 2 schedules.

I hope to have these links incorporated into the schedules in the near future but for now:
Helmets provided by the awesome site MG’s Helmets. Check out this site for a whole slew of helmets from NFL, to NCAA to NHL. Awesome artwork over there.

Logos (background artwork) provided by SportsLogos.Net. Another great site with multitudes of logos from almost every sporting team out there.

Well well well how the times have changed. Not a month ago the wheels were falling off the wagon but much like any other Tommy Bowden team with their back to the wall, the Tigers roared back and positioned themselves as the decider in the Atlantic Divisional Championship this weekend. Pretty cool how that worked out too. Congrats to the Terps for getting their game back together and defeating the Eagles this past weekend. On the other side of the conference, Virginia continues to punish teams in what was to be Al Groh’s last season. Now, not so much. With a Woody Dantzler-esque QB, the Hoos are tearing up defenses and Chris Long is keeping opponent QBs up at night. In the end, both division championships will be played in the final two weeks. Very exciting time for the division indeed.

The ‘Noles give it to BC and take em down a notch in a nail biter on Saturday night. I hope that the Tigers use that as motivation and their homework tapes for the last ACC game of the season. But don’t forget the proverbial “thorn in the side” Wake Forest Demon Deacons coming into The Valley next week. They come off a painful loss to the potential Coastal Division champs, Virginia. So the Clemson Tigers have two bitter teams to play to end the ACC run and each of them are in Death Valley. Let’s hope that Tommy can get the Tigers up to it and the crowd will not disappoint. Of course, night games would be key here but you can pretty much guarantee that there will be a nooner in there somewhere. Luckily, the weather should be cooling off, but I will leave that to Bowman’s predictions.

The Sporting Gnomes Schedule has been updated.

Not much else to say other than Clemson still has a chance to win the Atlantic division as the losses are to outer divisional teams. Of course with Maryland’s sudden offensive onslaught, the BC Juggernaut and the proverbial thorn in the side, Wake Forest ahead, Clemson will have to get their S together through the next three weeks to have any hope at all. Hope to get to the ACCCG or even salvaging another classic roller coaster season.

Oh and by the way, thought of the day: Get the fluff games out of the beginning of the season, it gives everyone big heads and false expectations. FSU is not a fluff team but they didn’t have their stuff together so that leaves Furman, LaMo and the bottom of the ACC NC State giving the Tiger faithful something to run on.

I don’t think I can take any more self destruction, so let’s hope something gets going (or at least the Special teams become somewhat respectable).

VT vs. Clemson, 6 PM on ESPN. Be afraid be very afraid. Of course GT must come first, but you can’t say that this gnome didn’t see it coming. The revenge game from Clemson’s dismantling at Blacksburg on the fateful Thursday night will be reciprocated in a Death Valley showdown that you can guarantee will match the GT blowout crowd performance from last year. ESPN probably had this one penciled in the books after the Tigers took out FSU at the beginning of the season. Never the less, the Hokies had better get their A-game on for a night in the Valley, cause these fans have a Miami like ear shattering pain to lay on the hokie O when they come in after embarassing our team from last year. Karma, aint it a bitch.

DAMNIT!! This is making it really hard to think about GT now…….CRAP!

Forget you ever read this post and return to your Tommy Bowden shrines.

ACC didn’t play that well this week OOC with ECU taking down the heels and LSU simply embarrassing what everyone believes will be the ACC Champ in Virginia Tech. The Tigers however, go 2 and 0 so it’s not all that bad.

GET YOSELF SOME GNOME SCHEDULE AND MAKE YO DESKTOP LOOK PURTY!! Sho nuff.
