    I am glad to see Fickell finally winning at Wisconsin, always rooting for ex Buckeye players winning as coaches in Big Ten.

    I am very happy with our win at Iowa yesterday. I had some serious doiubts playing in their stadium. Saying continues to find receivers open and finishes another good game. J Smith, what can one say, he is very difficult to defend. Our running backs had a good game as well and our defense looked to be much improved in a hostile environment. A very solid win for the Buckeyes!

    Hey Stu. Congratulations on Purdue breaking its Big10 win drought. Hopefully, it's a sign of progress for the program.

    Dennis Franchionne passed away at 75, recurrent cancer. Certainly had an interesting career . With the odd decision to leave Alabama for A&M.

    It looks like we’ll have a tropical storm pass along the Mississippi/Alabama line on Saturday during the Alabama/Georgia game. Should be interesting.

    Kp, if you lose to Georgia, you can always blame the loss to the weather.:)

    Don, that’s true. Thankfully there are no UGA fans on The Skybox, at least until we see AJ’s POTW! ;)

    OK AJ, how much did one cost you? :D:eek:

    With Memorial Stadium in Lincoln set to undergo a $600 million renovation this coming offseason, the Cornhuskers announced Aug. 29 that they'd be selling off all sorts of soon-to-be removed items from their century-old home, including stadium seats, signs, suite items and, yes, urinals.

    And according to reports, several of the troughs already have been purchased.

    Looks like they are definitely going try and play UGA/Alabama on Saturday.

    Ga.Tech/Duke is another story. It's an afternoon game and the storm definitely appears to be impacting whether or not it will be played. Option might be to move in to Saturday night.

    Jenny says...it'll be the Univ of ....

    Ya know, I've been thinking, with ALL that $$$ the SEC has, how come they haven't built a storm protocol into the season? I mean us heavy gamblers here should deserve some type of advantage also right?
