Looks like it will be time to buy new remote batteries on Sept. 8. My plans: Start the brats about 10 a.m., along with the first beer. Holy shit. I wouldn't be surprised if there is an upset or two, along with some amazing games.

If you guys think there is a better week, at least on paper, post it.

ok, ill put everyone up for the 6th

nebraska @ MU
Tejas vs OU
Tenn vs Georgia
Iowa @ Penn st
Miami @ Nrth Carolina Davis returns to play canes
nc st @ FSU
V Tech @ Clemson
OSU @ aTm
tOSU @ Purdue
Notre Dame @ UCLA
Florida @ LSU


and several good game possibilities. just because the top 25 arent involved, doesnt mean its not good football. I bet some of the lesser matchups will be as good or better than FLA @ LSU.

The Big 12 definatly takes the lead on the 6th of October with other match ups including...
Kansas vs Kansas State (The Sunflower Classic)
Oklahoma State vs Texass A&M

There is more to October 6th than just the Big 12 as well...

Notre Dame at UCLA
Florida at LSU
Georgia at Tennessee
Cincinnati at Rutgers (I think this will be a good game and hopefully on TV somewhere)
Miami at UNC (Butch versus DaU)

where's that link we had last year with the entire TV schedule per week?

i made some half-witted searches but can't remember what the site was called.

anybody bookmark it?

i've tried to motivate some buddies to drive up to Fort Collins for the CSU-Cal game. it should be kinda fun, no real "takers" so far though. Hughes Stadium in the Fort is pretty small...."intimate" seating as they'd say if you getting prison raped on tickets by Ticketmaster.
