    Florida at LSU #1

    ND at PennSt #20

    Tenn at Cal makes the list as well.

    I am making no plans for Sept. 8th except to make sure the remote has plenty of battery power. 8) :D

    I was trying not to list Florida twice Tom so as not to offend sensibilities... :wink:

    I thought the Tenn-Cal game stands out as a nice game to look forward to on the first Sat. of the season.

    I am glad you guys are playing it.

    I have a feeling that we are walking into a hornets nest in that game. They are going to remember the beating they took last year. Combine that with an anemic backfield... Trouble!!!

    I don't think he's been quoted yet as saying he can beat Georgia with one arm tied behind his back!! :)

    Tom, you are catching the Gators at a much better time than later in the season this year. We have so many young players that it will take some time for them to come together. This year I think we will be a much better team late in the season than early.

    But I am hoping you are right! :twisted: :twisted:

    Interesting that Florida makes the list twice and FSU makes the list twice but not when we play each other. Also Miami and FSU isn't on the list.

    It's an interesting list though and that Miami picture is classic.

    er... uh... Bill :shock: I was talking about our game with Cal. We gave them a beating last year that they won't forget. We are anemic in the backfield and that does not equate to a high probability of success. :?

    :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

    Tom, that's what I get for being distracted and reading to quick! Sorry.

    But what I said about the Gators when you play us is true. Lot's of good young players but not a lot of experience.

    Pardon my not so appropriate comment! :oops: :oops:

    Well...I would have said freezing rain but we won't likely see that until mid Nov. if even then.

    By then only Michigan-OSU is left as a decent game in the Big Ten. :wink:

    Rest assured, This year he could. I hope he get's his shot Staffords Sr. year. I don't like the guy, and he ain't a Clausen until he's had his ass beat by UGA. ;)

    EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE.

    I'm going out on a limb here and guessing that Clausen doesn't play this year.
