NCAA Football

Any fans out there? How about those upsets in week 1? Appalachian who?

I love watching ESPN Game Day just to see how wrong Kirk Herbstreit will be each week. Next Saturday when Virginia Tech gets manhandled by LSU after they already had a tough time with East Carolina, he'll look really dumb for saying they could make be a BCS Championship team.

You can all see who I cheer for but I also watch FSU games. What a miserable start. We're hoping they'll look much better by the end of the season and be a winning team next year. If not, GO GATORS!

Had an easy walk this week, next game will tell though. Okalahoma's opener was a 79 - 10 routing of North Texas!

Go Mizzou!! Yea, I'm a life long fan of the University of Missouri Football and Basketball teams. Looks like a great year for Mizzou. We are picked to win the Big 12 North this year, and to anyone who isn't familiar with Tigers Football, that just doesn't happen very often with Nebraska and more recently Kansas State around. It's going to be a great season.

Oh yea, I also work for the University of Missouri with ties to the athletic dept.

Go Huskers!!!

I've got season tickets for Mizzou, son goes there, but I'm a die hard Nebraska fan. I have to be, I was born there and it's the law!

Oh, how I remember that '95 Fiesta Bowl(Gators) . And the '94 Orange Bowl ('canes) too!

There is nothing like an fall Sat. afternoon on campus!!!

Attending a Div. III school, so there's no real buzz about our football team (and U-B? Gimme a break). So, my loyalty lies with my original college: MICHIGAN STATE!

After topping UAB by 46, it's looking like a pretty good season ... then again, last year we won the first four, let Notre Dame come back 35 in the fourth and beat us, and went winless in conference ...

Ah well, it's nice to dream ... mmm, Pasadena ...

Not just by the STPD, but others as well. But hey, it's the ranking at the end of the season that counts, so we will have to wait and see. At least the Illinois game was a win, we could have easily lost that game if not for some great plays by our defense, and I believe Illinois is a pretty good team, but time will tell if I'm correct.

I won't be at the game. My town is having it's Pioneer days celebration, so I'll be there all day. Hate to miss the home opener, but Pioneer Days is more important. Besides I have to enter Sebastian in the car show When I do go to games, I park in the Maryland parking garage and tailgate with the Quarterback Club (father in law is a member).

Sounds like many of you have the same love of college football that I do. But, it was tough watching the Mizzou Tigers after the departure of Dan Devine. They just couldn't compete with Nebraska and Oklahoma. I'm glad to see them doing well this year. For some reason, FSN broadcasts a Big 12 game down in Florida each week and I get to see several Mizzou games. Maybe will see you in a bowl.

Desert Coyote, better to be a Michigan State fan than a Michigan fan this year. Hey, aren't you a basketball school?
