    Back in the time when Kelly had bailed on ND for LSU, most ND fans wanted Fickell badly. He fit the vision they had of a coach ready to step up. Careful what you wish for I guess.

    Dawgs return the favor and whip down the field, 7-7. If this keeps up the over/under is going to be 90 or so.

    Vols are playing with their hair on fire and lead UGA 21-7.

    Yes he's been mediocre at best, and against mediocre to poor competition. i don't know what's wrong with him and the offense. It's been very disappointing to say the least. He has run for 2 TD's but that's not what fans want to see, want to see him look like a Manning throwing the ball. 14-3 at the half, should be 35-3 and people wondering how long he'll play.

    Georgia found their running game and shoved it down the Vols throats to open the 2nd half (13 of 14 plays were running plays) and now lead for the 1st time.. This is another really good game. I'm only checking in on Texas, that game isn't a good game.

    Arch is now 9-22 for 97 yds. Not good.

    Over in Knoxville it continues to be a great game, lots of big plays. Vols are out in front now 35-30

    Just kicked a FG and it's 38-30 with under 7 minutes left. Dawgs are going to need a score and a 2 point conversion.

    And Georgia did just that, a great TD throw by Stockton and then an easy 2 point conversion and we are tied with 2:32 left for the Vols to put up points and get the win. What a great game.

    Vol kicker missed the game winning FG. Looks like this one is going to OT.

    Kirby’s teams just refuse to die. Incredible win on the road against the very talented Vols.

    Ohio is playing the Buckeyes tough in the first half. Ohio State up 13-3.

    I guess the bloom is off the rose for Arch.
