| I was able to get the PSU game, but I had to go somewhere. Missed the LSU beatdown too. Ouch. I'm sure ESPN's Bottom 10 is going to announce UM/ND as the pillow fight of the week. How embarrassing. |

Wow, another great weekend of college football. Here are my useless thoughts:
My Fresno State Bulldogs were oh so close to upsetting #23 Texas A&M in triple overtime. We lost but I was so happy to see the team come back from a 19-0 halftime deficit and saw signs that last years abymil 4-8 record was an off year. Next week @ a soon to be ranked Oregon, gulp.
Michigan looks awful, the Ducks just whooped them. I wonder if Carr wil last the season?
LSU looks like a steamroller on its way to a BCS title game. VA Tech barely got through last week against a crappy team so them getting pounded is not really all that surprising.
Oklahoma pummeled a Miami program that is absolutely decaying more every year.
Steve Spurrier is an amazing college coach. Nice upset of the Georgia Bulldogs, ouch.
Penn State smacked Notre Dame in the mouth as the Irish look like they did pre-Weiss/Quinn/Smarzdjin(sp?). Then again they were overrated then too. Quinn and Smarzdin weren't part of Weiss's recruiting class, right? I wonder when ND will win their first game?
South Florida upsets Auburn, wow.
Boise State got over powered by an emerging Washington team.
Hawaii's Colt Brenan is a straight up passing machine.
Go Bulldogs! |

Holy smokes, check out this story:
Texas fan nearly castrated
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/football/ncaa/09/11/oklahoma.texas.fight.ap/index.html?cnn=yes
| Quote: |
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- To some Oklahoma football fans, there are things that just aren't done in the heart of Sooner Nation, and one of them is to walk into a bar wearing a Texas Longhorns T-shirt.
That's exactly what touched off a bloody skirmish that left a Texas-shirt-wearing fan nearly castrated and an Oklahoma fan facing aggravated assault charges that could put him in prison for up to five years.
The shocking case has set off a raging debate in this football-crazed region about the extreme passions behind a bitter rivalry. Some legal observers have even questioned whether this case could ever truly have an impartial jury.
"I've actually heard callers on talk radio say that this guy deserved what he got for wearing a Texas T-shirt into a bar in the middle of Sooner country," said Irven Box, an attorney in this city 20 miles from Oklahoma's campus in Norman.
According to police, 32-year-old Texas fan Brian Christopher Thomas walked into Henry Hudson's Pub on June 17 wearing a Longhorns T-shirt and quickly became the focus of football "trash talk" from another regular, 53-year-old Oklahoma fan Allen Michael Beckett.
Thomas told police that when he decided to leave and went to the bar to pay his tab, Beckett grabbed him in the crotch, pulled him to the ground and wouldn't let go, even as bar patrons tried to break it up. When the two men were separated, Thomas looked down and realized the extent of his injuries.
"He could see both of his *beep* hanging on the outside of his body," said Thomas' attorney, Carl Hughes. "He was wearing a pair of white shorts, which made it that much worse."
It took more than 60 stitches to close the wound, and police interviewed Thomas at a nearby hospital emergency room.
Beckett's attorney, Billy Bock, concedes that his client commented about Thomas' shirt, but said it was just good-natured ribbing and that he apologized to Thomas when it appeared to upset the Texas fan. Later, Bock said Thomas approached his client at the bar and threatened him.
"My client is a little man, and this guy [Thomas] is 30 to 40 pounds bigger than him," Bock said. "He's bigger, stronger, younger and probably faster, and he aggressively leaned in and touched my client and threatened to beat him up. ... My guy was defending himself and just took control of the situation."
Thomas' attorney disputes Beckett's version.
"That's total malarkey," Hughes said. "My client never said a word to him. He got up to pay and when he paid and left a tip, the guy grabbed him."
Beckett, a 53-year-old church deacon, federal auditor and former Army combat veteran, has pleaded not guilty. His next court appearance comes Oct. 4, two days before the Sooners and Horns tangle in their annual football game at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas.
Thomas, who once lived in Houston and became a Texas fan during the heyday of star running back Earl Campbell, is still recovering from his injuries but has returned to work as a meat cutter at a Sam's Club warehouse store.
Like Beckett and Thomas, many fans of the two college squads never attended either university, but have come to identify so closely with these teams that they attach banners to their cars, wear team colors on game day and even have programmed their car horns to play school fight songs.
Dallas police Sgt. Andy Harvey, a 12-year veteran of the force, said it's not uncommon for fights to break out between fans of the two schools.
"People are passionate about their teams and their universities, and that's a good thing," he said, "but when you mix a real passionate sports fan and then get a little alcohol in there, sometimes it's not a good mix."
On both Texas and Oklahoma fan Web sites, boosters trade familiar tales of having their car tires slashed or windshields smashed for sporting the opposing team's sticker in enemy territory.
Assistant District Attorney Scott Rowland said the rivalry will have no bearing on the way the case is prosecuted.
"It appears that it played a part in the fight," he said, "but that won't play any more of a role in our handling of the case than would a fight over a girl or a car or a song on the jukebox." |

Another weekend is upon us which means football. This means I will wake up at 3:30 to watch the Tennessee/Florida and Ohio State/Washington games. I also want to keep and eye on the Notre Dame/Michigan debacle. My Fresno State Bulldogs are playing at 8 am KST in Oregon, so the earlier games will lead me into that game. I also want to keep an eye on USC/Nebraska and the Boston College/Georgia Tech game. I am lucky to have a fiancee that puts up with my football madness.
Here are my useless thoughts for the weekend:
USC will beat Nebraska.
Washington will hang with Ohio State, and beat them.
Fresno State will not contain Dixon and the dude will rush for over 150 yards.
Tennessee will go to Florida and win.
Hawaii's Colt Brennan will throw for at least 4 touchdowns and 400+yards.
Michigan and Notre Dame is an absolute must watch. Why? It is like the old adage, you don't want to look at the grisly car accident-but you just gotta.
Go Bulldogs!
Edit. Here are the games that will be streamed that I know of:

Hey, check out this site:
http://sportsonpc.com/schedule.html
That should work for the USC game.
Once again it looks like all my predictions are 100% wrong; and that, is exactly why I never bet on sports.  |

How did you watch it? I tried the links above and couldn't get it. I was following the info and really wanted to witness the game as seeing ND get beat badly makes me feel so good for so long. Sure hope MSU gives them more of the same next week. Maybe Weiss should've brought some video spying techniques with him to South Bend. |
