    I've been going back/forth between Ark/Missouri, which looks like it will be a good game and Tenn/Wisc which looks like Tenn is getting ready to roll the Badgers, so far they've been shooting themselves in the foot a lot which is why they are only up 14-7.

    Annoucers said Tenn is losing almost it's entire Offensive Staff....I wonder if Tom and Aqullia are glad or sad?

    Joe Montana is at the Tenn/Wisc game, they said his son Nate is going to walkon at Notre Dame, Joe expressed support for Charlie. I wonder why he is at the game though.

    Terry, I promise you this, those orange tears aren't tears of joy.

    Cap 1 bowl....looks like there is only 5 Mich fans in the stands...a UF home game. But UM comes out and runs right over the Fla defense. 7-0 Wolves...I wonder if this is going to be a shootout.

    Well I was wrong about the 1st 2 games...Missouri is rolling Ark and Tenn/Wisc is a close game...Vols offense stunk in the 3rd Qtr.

    Cap 1 bowl, 7-7 looks like it might develope into that shoot that MCG predicted.

    I didn't see the 2nd half of the Tennessee game. They apparently didn't do that much on offense but still hung on to win.

    Gators are in a real dogfight with Michigan. This is not a surprise to me and I would be happy with just the kind of win that Tennessee got.

    Michigan goes to half up 21-14 and seemingly having old mo on their side. They have been able to keep UF bottled up pretty deep most of the 2nd qtr.

    I'll bet the 2nd half will be a barn burner.

    I've peeked in on Texas Tech some, and was surprised at how bad they are playing, I thought their spread would just roll over UVa.

    I don't think that the runner up had a very good day today JIF, they were smoked by Mizzou.

    I think he deserved it... without him they don't have much. He is the whole team.

    No doubt I guess. Reminds me of the old pre 1940's when the Qback wasnt under center. ( took direct snap). Im not sure how Tebow will do playing on Sundays unless he concentrates on his passing game more.

    We're on the way back to the RV and do I have a few posts to make about this experience... I have never been to a Wisconsin game and we had the "pleasure" of sitting directly behind the Wisconsin student section. Those in the know have a good idea of the posts I'll be making upon our return today. Pictures are coming as well.

    Who here has a good idea of what I will be posting?

    End of three Florida and Michigan tied at 28.

    I have had the feeling all day that Michigan has been in control but the Gators have managed to hang in there.

    Now Michigan is on our goal line again.

    880 yards of offense between the two teams at this point.

    Whichever team wins this game has had to work for it.

    The game I'm watching Michigan has just clobbered 'em. The Hart kid playing for The Gators just might win it for them. The Heisman guy could lose another one. Maybe Hart will bail him out?

    Hart has one more shot to win the Game for the Gators. Kid Heisman can't seem to do it. Kid Heisman going to lose another game this season? It's a shmae what they (voters) have done to that trophy. It's become meaningless.

    <t>I believe that Wiscy holds both the best and worst fans. Most I've encountered are fun. The rare few are really bad. One guy I had a run in with while I had my wife and infant child in the car still holds a special place in my heart. If I ever see him again, I'm going to beat his ass. He got me at the one and only time I couldn't stomp that SOB.<br/>
    <br/>
    So, I look forward to your upcoming posts.</t>

    Well I know for sure that if it was a bad experience it won't match the one he had when he and Cindy went to LSU! :wink:
