How many teams did the handshake this week?

I don't remember them doing a full-team handshake at the UNI/Iowa game. But I might have just missed it.

UMass and Kansas State did shake hands before the game Saturday....Interesting picture, courtesy of UMass74's blog...the size difference (numbers, not physical) between a home FBS squad and a travelling FBS squad...

Portland State and Oregon State did not have a formal pregame handshake, but there were quite a few postgame handshakes after.

Interesting to point out as documented by ESPN, Oregon and Boise State did have a pregame handshake and Blount was one of 15 Ducks who participated pregame.

I didn't know if it was gonna be a cool thing or not but after seeing it done and listening to some of the hacky announcers and their take on it as being a real good thing to do and the just douchbaggey feel that it had after they got done talking about it I am now firmly on the side of not doing it. What a bunch of fucking hacks just saying what they have to say about it. It would not have been so distasteful if they had just shut their mouths about it.

We did this with Willamette University this past Saturday, and on the opening kickoff, they committed an unsportsmanlike penalty. Go figure.
