My three picks this week:

Arkansas getting 1
Washington St. giving 8
UAB getting 29.5


Pumpkin (Man, I just can't get used to that name. I've seen your picture. You aren't going to make me call you that to your face are you, chili? I'd snicker and you'd want to pound me), I wouldn't dare hurt your feelings by openly rooting for Bama. That's why I clandestinely emailed my encouragement to Dayhiker.

UT doesn't run the ball for four quarters, then comes out in 5 O/T's and ammasses rushing yardage.

But the play of the game......


4th and 19 and Claussen comes through.


What a game.

Bama just couldn't win. We had a 1st and 2 at the end of the game. Convert the 1st down and it's over. UT holds. They still have to go about 80 yards for the TD. Our prevent D lets them march down the field. Our DE hits Clausen way out of bounds and tack on 15. The game was a comedy of errors on both sides. Still, this was what the Bama - UT game is all about. How about Wesley Britt refusing to take his helment off until he's carted off the field, fists wildly pumping the air to fire up the crowd with his leg bend in about a30* angle from the compound fracture. I'd have been crying like a baby.

UGA still has U of F and Auburn, I believe.

U of F has UGA.

UT has Vandy, Mississippi State and Kentucky.


It aint over until the fat lady sings.

However, having said all that, I won't be disappointed one little bit if we don't have to play LSU in the title game.

It would be a shame if UT backed into the title game. If UF wins out against UGA and FSU, the athletic directors would be hard pressed not to vote UF into the title game. But that certainly is a big IF.

Dayhiker, dayhiker, dayhiker (and Miss Opie), Bama managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Every time Bama had the game won for sure, they fell apart. Didn't Bama used to be famous for defense? Peeeeeyou. That was one incredibly exciting college football game. I agree with Nigal that that's what it's all about, but good Lord what a disappointment. Bama had that game won a couple of times. Tennessee came through BIG in the clutch.

Rutgers is on the verge, violin. That game was an easy pick. I would have picked Rutgers to cover (and win) but my picking parner beat me to it.

Arkansas and Wash. St. were both disappointments.

THIS SATURDAY, CBS NATIONALLY TELEVISED GAME, LARGEST OUTDOOR COCKTAIL PARTY IN THE WORLD. This game is shaping up into a good one. I only hope that my team isn't as disappointing as Bama...sheeeesh!

The festivities surrounding the Iron Bowl are always exciting.

The Bama/Auburn game, in Auburn, is the best place to be in the south on a Fall Saturday afternoon.

Cocoa, thankyou for your condolences. I really appreciate it. KU is gonna head down the tubes without Whitemore. It is too reminiscent of last year against Misery. Our ONE quarterback goes out and the backup comes in and promptly throws a bounce pass to a receiver that is five yards away.
Try maintaining pride while watching that in the opposing team's stadium.
Then, this year. Our ONE quarterback goes out of the game and the backup comes in. He promptly botches a HANDOFF! What do these guys do at practice????
Anyway, basketball season starts soon. I do, though, have a feeling that KU will win one more and put them within striking distance of a bowl game. What's the worst bowl that a team can get invited to? Look for the Jayhawks in that one, hopefully against a Div ll team.

Hey, Violin! I just got a call from Bill Whittmore and he tells me that he threw the game for me. I guess when there is so much at stake, beer talks and quarterbacks walk.

Don't get too confident. Fans and sportswriters just raised the possibility of Rutgers becoming bowl eligible. Nothing dooms a Rutgers team better than high expectations. Just send the beer already.

With the federal courts having an almost guaranteed (better than 95%) conviction rate from indictments and facing a three-count indictment of conspiracy, crossing state lines to commit racketeering, and arranging bank withdrawals to cover up a crime; I don't think it matters. I'm sure my law lingo is wrong somewhere. Where's chili when you need him?

I think in all fairness Vi, Rutgers should admit that one of those wins came against Army and they should decline any bowl bid. It's the right thing to do!

Does this mean Bama actually cheated? I'm not sure some of the guys on the football message boards will ever be able to admit it.

I'm reading rumors that Fulmer is close to stepping down due to an affair. Evidently, the call-in shows in Knoxville are talking about it. Anyone heard anything?

Just more defused bull from the TI rumor mill. Mike Hamilton issued a statement discounting any impending resignation by football coach Phillip Fulmer yesterday. Recruiting season must be near because this one really stirred the athletic department though.

Well, I am wearing my costume until close of business today, but **with a muffled voice due to the pumpkin head****,,,,I say he needs to learn how to pick up the soap in the shower without bending over.
