Little Sisters Laugh Last



TCU Billboard
Courtesy of WSYXTwenty electronic billboards congratulating TCU for its Rose Bowl victory -- and heckling Ohio State -- have popped up around Columbus, Ohio.
Multiple billboards congratulating TCU on its Rose Bowl victory popped up in Columbus, Ohio, several days after the Horned Frogs defeated Wisconsin 21-19.
The billboards seem to be a jab at Ohio Statepresident E. Gordon Gee, who had made derogatory comments about the quality of non-automatic qualifying schools such as TCU andBoise State.
"I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it's like murderer's row every week for these schools," Gee said in late November. "We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor. We play very fine schools on any given day.
"So I think until a university runs through that gauntlet that there's some reason to believe that they not be the best teams to [be] in the big ballgame."
The message on 20 electronic billboards in the Columbus area reads:
"Congratulations to TCU for their Rose Bowl victory
-- Little Sisters of the Poor"
