A friend of mine's father played 150 lb football back east before the start of WWII, he said these guys were super tough, just as tough as the marines he served with while island treking through the Pacific. He said that some of the 150 lb guys would play in the 150 lb game in the morning and then suit up again and play in the afternoon with the 'regular guys', like they started both games. He said the 150 lbers played the game much better than the 'regular guys'. The closes thing now days is Army, Navy and Air Force teams. I loved it back when John Ralston was Stanford's head coach and played the service academies, I think there was a year when they payed at least two of the academy teams and maybe all three in the same year......?
The PAC-12 should replace SC with Air Force and have the remaining PAC-12 Teams play Army and Navy on a frequent basis.
