And I think they've got a good chance. Looks like they're ahead so far, but I'm waiting until the end of the LSU/Alabama game to switch over ...

"Kiffen ruined TN for years to come. I wish him massive failure at USC."

Yeah, that was crappy all the way around. Tennessee should be better than they've been the last few years, no doubt.

Seriously though, I am looking forward to the distraction of two good football games tonight. Live in NY and its been a tough week. I am drinking beer and watching the Ducks at a pub called Third and Long on 35th and 3rd tonight. Anyone want to join, I'll be the lone Duck fan at the bar. Oh and reluctantly I say, Geaux Tigers too!

I hope its the Ducks and Tide in the championship. I have to see what our offense can do to a real defense.

Hey,
Not sure how my Huskers pulled that game out of their ass. Was a badly officiated game. I would like to see the Cowboys knock off the Mildcats.

Peace

Arizona Wildcats visit the Rose Bowl to face the UCLA Bruins.

I watched most of the Pitt vs ND game.
I wish Pitt had held on for the win.

I'm watching Oregon vs USC.

Yay football!

I don't get the Pac-12 network, so I can't watch the game, but it looks like it was an ugly first quarter for the Wildcats ...

On the road against a good team. Challenged a few times, but never stopped asserting themselves.

but the game was so boring we stopped watching at halftime. We were desperate for entertainment. There is nothing to do in our town.

He puts his OSU banner up over the front porch sometimes, to confuse the natives. We're in Texas and our Aggies are maroon and white.
