catch it, clean it, eat it

I've had fresh bullhead that wasn't bad
You better have a lot of friends coming to eat if you hook into a 50 pound grouper.

You know the difference between a catfish and a lawyer?

Ooh, that sounds like a fun thing to read about...

If there are any cool publicly-available articles / white papers / studies / etc about it, please forward...
https://www.dot.state.mn.us/materials/pvmtmgmt.html

There's a small picture of the data collection van on the side of the main Pavement Management page. 

Their site also has reports on everything that unit has done in the past 15+ years.

That helmet ranking is...interesting. Everyone will always have opinions, but I couldn't tell you what, for example, Hawaii, San Diego State, or Tulane look like. I can remember some of theirs over the years, but pinpointing what is what? Nope, can't do it. And putting Oregon so high when Oregon changes lids so often? Questionable.

Anyway, I'm a sucker for the classics.

My guess is one of the most helmet advantaged teams is Ohio State, but they also tend to be really good.  Helmet can't get you past number one.

I think pollsters are more comfortable with putting teams like Notre Dame and Alabama 2-3-4-5-6 notches higher than the same team would be if they were ... Missouri.

Bama's helmet wasn't highly ranked, surprisingly

Same exact team named say Kansas would probably be ranked 20, or lower.

Agree.

For overall unis, I admit I love Penn State's home unis and Texas' road-whites.  And though I absolutely despise admitting this and despise even more knowing it's the truth....I quite like Ole Miss' dark blue unis.  Their soft blues are awful and better represent the abominable team that they are.
