All I can say is GO MU!

Whoda thunk at the beginning of the season that this game would mean so much?  It's amazing how many fans there are now.  They really come out of the woodwork to join the bandwagon.

All I can say is, "Welcome.  Hop on, sit down and buckle up.  It's bound to be a wild ride!"

Seeing how the Heels-Dook game is meaningless, I'll be rooting for the KY Wildcats to knock Tenn out of the SEC championship game and let the Dawgs in. After what I saw last night the Dawgs can beat LSU. I don't think the Vols can.

Blonde will be happy that I am pulling for the Gators. I want them to send Bobby Bowden into retirement.

As for Clem's son and that other team from South Carolina-WHO CARES. It is shame that one of them has to win. If your ex-wife and her lawyer jump off a building at the same time who hits the ground first? WHO CARES.

I guess I'll be pulling for Kansas. This is based on them being the better basketball school.

Who ever can guess the next coach to get the axe will win a CD with Sean Penn singing carols in Spanish.

Now as for this Thursday night's game between the Cowboys and Packers if you can get it on radio listen to that. This past week, Bryant Gummball was doing the play by play for the NFL network. Boy was he sorry. If it wasn't for Collinsworth doing the color it would have stunk up the whole TV.

Woof!

(And it is interesting that the whole NB staff only has one wife and daughter.  But I guess having the whole NB staff cleaning the pool makes it go faster.  My question:  Why send your family to a spa when you can just turn up the temperature on the pool and use a modified leafblower to make bubbles?)

This is teasing, but man I wonder how many Nebraska folks go to the salon, do the pool and workout. Is nice to see that patricians come from all areas of the United States in America being a land of affluence where all can rise above corn husking.

As for me I was feeding my pet chickens corn I husked this year........I learned that 800 ears of corn on average fill a 55 gallon barrel. It is wonderful being a squire and listening to pheasants cackle as you pick corn and your setter looks at you like, "Why are we picking corn when there are birds to chase".

College football has lost a great interest for me now until the small colleges start the playoffs.........while it is interesting to watch North Dakota starting to do well in playing with the big schools..........my only interest now is watching Ohio State loose.

I still would like those communists at the college ranks to approve a national playoff system like the NFL so a real champion could be crowned..........what a thrill it was last year watching Idaho doing what it did.........as much as watching LSU get waxed by a "lesser team".

Hopefully the Cornhuskers will find a coach as I miss their massive power running offenses adding depth to the NFL.

We're still celebrating in Arkansas!  Still hoping for a good bowl bid from that.

Let's go Buckeyes!! Things keep looking better and better for Buckeye fans!! That LSU loss was huge, and it may prove to be the difference maker as it relates to OSU climbing to #2.

The winner of the MU/KU game will have to get past OU.......and I don't see that happening. OU already beat MU once, and Kansas didn't play them.

If WVU stumbles....... we might see a 2 loss team in the national championship game!!

Everyone seems to think Ga can beat LSU? All I can say is after yesterday, the pressure is off of LSU. Ga may like to be in the SEC championship game, but I think they finish higher in the pols at the end of the year (like LSU last year) if they dont go. Anyone who watched the game yesterday, knows LSU lost that game in the first half. LSU offence did not take advantage of the good field position that their defence gave them, and by the 4th both defenses were beat. I think the world of Miles, but he called way too many passes (22) in the first half. I can understand why, Flynn was very good in the 2nd half, If we run the ball 12 more times in the first, I think we win. LSU had about a doz opportunities to turn the game around, but the Razorbacks were up to the task.

 I had been worried about Ark ever since last year, we won a hard fought game last year, and in the SEC it very hard to beat teams consecetive years. LSU next year, Auburn, Fla (if Tebow stays) and maybe Alabama. Sorry if I sound like a whinner, but rooting for LSU this year has been excruciatingly unbearable. Let's see what the rest of the season brings us, been the best ever (other then ND) I can remember. The NFL is a pitiful shell of the collage game this year.

This game was a lot more one-sided that the score shows. A&M dominated time of possession, yardage (By just about a 2:1 ratio), first downs and just about everything else. Stephen McGee looked like a pro and Colt McCoy looked like a dud (1 INT, 2 fumbles). 13 of UT's 30 points came in the final 10 minutes or so, and 7 more came off of a 91 yard kick return.

Now, I'm not a diehard Longhorn or Aggie fan (I just have plenty of friends at both schools, and lean somewhat slightly towards A&M), so I mainly watch and cheer for a good game. While the outcome was pleasing and the score reflected a close game, it was as much a blowout as those 50-20 UT victories a few years back. Give me last year's 12-7 A&M victory, minus the violent late hit on Colt McCoy with 7 seconds left, any day.

It is time to talk b-ball. Football is about done except for the conference championships, USC-UCLA, OR-OR State, Pitt-WV and Army-Navy. GO ARMY BEAT NAVY

My heels won the Vegas Invitational but may have lost Ty Lawson for a while. He sprained his ankle in the first 2 minutes of the BYU game. He will be re-evaulated today. Bobby Frasor is a good point guard but he is no Ty Lawson.

The Heels have 4 road games in a row begining Wednesday in Columbus with Ohio State. Then it is on to Rupp Arena on Saturday for a game with Kentucky. Both of these teams lost to lesser opponents so beating the Heels would put a feather in their caps. Then it is on the play Penn and Rutgers.

The date to remember is Feb. 8th when DOOK comes to the Dean Dome for a good old backyard whipping from the Heels.

Okay, sorry all...but I can't help it.

Here's a column from a local writer I absolutely despise (the Gator Hater) Dave Hyde. 

But I must agree with some of his points.....

Forget for a moment the 29 touchdowns Tebow has passed for or the single-season record for total offense at Florida he now holds. Consider this: He now has run for more touchdowns (22) this season than Herschel Walker, Bo Jackson or Reggie Bush did their Heisman years.

Florida is quietly pushing Tebow for the Heisman. No loud proclamations. Just a constant uncovering of statistics. He's the first player to run and pass for more than 20 touchdowns in NCAA history. His passing rating is at or above the past 10 Heisman quarterbacks.

Saturday brought this from Florida statisticians: In six common SEC opponents between Arkansas and Florida, McFadden has accounted for seven touchdowns while Tebow has for 25.

Enough said.....Tim Tebow earned it, he deserves it, and we'll just have to see how political the sports media really is.
