Alabama tops Dooley Decimal SEC program rankings
Ah, the steamy days of summer. A young man’s thoughts turn to swimming pools, the beach, barbecues and, of course, college football.
And every summer, about the time those pop-up storms hit Gainesville in the afternoon, I keep thinking it’s almost time for the Dooley Decimal System. I have to be patient because too early is too early, but too late is also too late. If that makes any sense, you’ve been out in the sun too long.
