Amidst the worry surrounding THE GAME and all things CFP, take heart my fellow armchair quarterbacks, there is hope for us old pot bellies. 55 year old Joe Thomas Sr. took a few snaps for the 1-AA South Carolina State Bulldogs this past Saturday. His son, plays linebacker for Green Bay. There are even older players to have played either D-3 or NAIA, just follow the links:
