    College Rivals Do Battle In Playboy Magazine

    We've spent most of this week trying to hunt down an online version of the newest issue of Playboy, but so far so not-so-good: the powers have perfected the art of taking down anyone trying to post scans online and have managed to keep a pretty good lockdown on the whole thing. (Though the industrious should be able to find a way. We're just saying!) But why would we take such a keen interest in this particular volume of airbrushed voluptuosity? Because October is the traditional "Girls Of The (Insert College Athletic Conference Here)" issue, and this year the conference of choice is none other than the old stomping ground of some of your favorite Fleshbot editors, the Big Ten!

    The issue is also stirring up a bit of controversy thanks to cover girl Kelly Carrington, who is a student at the University of Florida. Clever scholars will note that UF is not in the Big Ten, a problem that Ms. Carrington (not her real name!) attributes to superior SEC genes.

    "There weren’t any girls from the Big Ten who were hot enough to be on the cover," she says.

    This will not stand! Her football and basketball teams may have earned the right to talk a little smack on the playing field, but when it comes to the physical prowess of its co-eds, we'll put the Big Ten up against any conference in the land.



    There was obviously some sort of lack of oversight on the part of Playboy's editors—or maybe there's a Gator-Hefner-NCAA conspiracy going on here? But we're certain that there are Big Ten women out there just as worthy of the centerfold. And we can prove it! Just as soon as we find some actual pictures from the magazine. (It's not like we're going to go outside and you know, buy it or anything. Feel free to leave us tips in the comments below.)
