Morning Six Pack: August 28, 2012

imageStormwater management, and six college football stories from around the country (we’re fine y’all. Thanks for asking and thanks for reading. Love you, too).

You might have noticed that the top 10 is a good place to lift off. Eleven of the 15 champions in the BCS era have started there. The average preseason rank of a national champion since 1998 is 7.5.

The SEC has five on the launching pad. Five.
