Looks like LSU's protests to do away with its cross-divisional game against Florida fell on deaf ears.

The SEC announced Friday that it approved the 6-1-1 playoff format, which means each SEC team will play six divisional games, one cross-divisional game and one rotating cross-divisional game. In simple terms, it means that Les Miles' Tigers will continue to face the Gators for the foreseeable future.

And much to the chagrin of LSU, Alabama will continue to play Tennessee while Arkansas will get newcomer Missouri. Other permanent rivalry games will include South Carolina-Texas A&M, Auburn-Georgia, Kentucky-Mississippi State and Ole Miss-Vanderbilt.

Joe Paterno has been dead for more than four months, but his legacy lives on in the various tribute videos on YouTube and, of course, this tribute song.

This really bad tribute song.

Joey Welz, who is the self-proclaimed "Boogie Woogie King of Rock n' Roll" provides us with a Johnny Cash-esque twangy serenade that recaps the events that led to Paterno's and firing but maintains that nothing can tarnish his legacy.

We'll just say that it's something special.

The Michigan-Ohio State rivalry has been a hot topic all week, but it hit an all-time low when Harrison Watson, an entrepreneur from Columbus, Ohio, posted a message on Twitter offering a $2,000 bounty to permanently injure Michigan commit Logan Tuley-Tillman.

"$2000 to whoever sidelines this kid permanently… Enjoy purgatory Logan."

Of course, the backlash started immediately and the tweet was deleted but not before it was recounted on several websites and retweeted by several fans.

Ever heard of the term to, "bo-duke it"?

The kids sometimes use it to refer to Dukes of Hazzard character Bo Duke, who famously used to slide across the hood of his car, the General Lee, while he was trying to make a quick getaway.

Michigan defensive lineman Will Campbell has apparently heard of this term because he tried to "bo-duke" a car at 2 a.m. on April 7 and ended up being arrested arraigned on a felony charge of malicious destruction of property worth more than $1,000 but less than $20,000 and a misdemeanor charge of malicious destruction of property worth more than $200 but less than $1,000.

Brady Hoke doesn't claim to be a prognosticator, but he has his ideas on the future of college football — and that future doesn't look very bright for a couple conferences.

While speaking at the Agonis Club's 59th-annual awards banquet in his hometown of Kettering, Ohio (yes, Michigan fans, Hoke was born and raised in Ohio), Hoke dropped some jokes and answered questions, including his take on conference realignment.

"I think really in about three years you'll see four super conferences, and I think the Big East will go away and maybe the ACC," he said.

Hoke was also quick to qualify his remarks: "But look, I'm just a coach. I don't know all of it."

Georgia Tech must know something the rest of the recruiting world doesn't.

Last week, Wesleyan (Norcross, Ga.) safety Charles Mack received 52 letters from the Yellow Jackets — in one day. Included in the barrage were newsletters, typed letters and a handwritten letter from each coach. There was no word whether one of the letters required Mack to check a box telling Georgia Tech whether he liked them back.

The crazy thing about Georgia Tech's stalking? Mack is relatively unknown. He's not ranked in the Rivals.com system and his only offers are from Navy and South Florida.

Yeah, he doesn't even have an official offer from Georgia Tech. The school is just in the process of courting him and he'll be evaluated at a camp later in the summer.

Justin Combs, son of entertainment mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, is heading to UCLA this fall to play cornerback for the Bruins, but some on campus think he should be doing so on his father's dime.

Combs was awarded and accepted a scholarship from former coach Rick Neuheisel last November. New coach Jim Mora and his staff honored the scholarship and Combs signed his letter of intent in February. The fact that Combs father was just named the wealthiest artist in Hip Hop by Forbes Magazine really has nothing to do with the son. But as tuition continues to climb at the UC-system school, some are questioning whether the $54,000 scholarship could go to someone more needy.

"UCLA's athletic department needs to consider the fact that perhaps there is another athlete on the football team, who could perhaps really use this scholarship," UCLA student Neshemah Keetin told CBS Los Angeles.

So you're thinking of joining the Vanderbilt football staff. You have a great resume, experience and talent. But getting a job on James Franklin's staff isn't about any of those things, it's about how attractive your wife is.

Franklin unabashedly said so during a radio interview Wednesday where he claimed that one of the first things he does when looking at perspective hires is size up their wives.

Yeah, creepy.

"I've been saying it for a long time, I will not hire an assistant coach until I've seen his wife. If she looks the part, and she's a D-I recruit (one of the nation's best-of-the-best), then you got a chance to get hired. That's part of the deal."
