OSU was dropped from the rankings.

Virginia dropped from #5 to #15 after losing to FSU, which rose from #6 to #5. FSU only lost to Syracuse and UVa only lost to FSU. Go figure!

Wow, only 2 more wins for my guys to be bowl eligible! Should be 6-0, though. It was nice to get a road win - two amazing goal-line stands did the trick!

I should have mentioned that FSU really beat the crap out of UVa, ... that probably had something to do with the rankings.

And for anyone watching Medical Investigation
on Friday night, that wasn't "Northern Nebraska University." That was SC and the LA Colisseum.

It was cracking me up how they kept walking in circles around the flower beds in front of Doheny Library. The camera work made it look like they were walking across a campus, but they were pretty much in the same place all along.

Cocoa, that was a first class butt kicking. Hope AU wins the rest of them.

Dayhiker, no passing yards but Bama beat a good team. Has the heat on Shula lessened any?

Well, I just know the Gators are scared this weekend. I smell an upset!

I was at Disney this week with my bro in law. He's a big State fan. He made a smart remark about taking it to UF while we drove thru Gainesville. At least yall didn't get beat last week.

Stove, we're shakin' in our boots. We wonder how in the world our team can live up to the likes of Maine and Vandy.

It's good to keep a sense of humor during a year like this; both yours and ours.




Sorry to hear your brother-in-law couldn't get into a real community college, Dayhiker.

You passed through G'ville and didn't even call? You remind me of your team: a fart in the wind.

I'm within earshot of the Newberry Road exit of I-75. Now I get to say, "Are you from Florda? I'm from Florda! What exit?

Better your Roll tide's in now, cause you probably won't say it much Saturday. Unfortunately you'll hear rocky top several hundred times. J/K Bama's got the running game and D to keep it close, but a one-dimensional offense won't bring home a W this week. If shula was smart, he'd throw it downfield the very first play. Smell an upset around Starkville?

The Bulldogs have won three straight at home against Florida, and haven't lost to the Gators in Starkville since 1985.

arc, that may have been the exit we took to get gas at a BP station at about 10 on Friday night. I didn't call because we had 7 folks in tow and it was late. Sorry.

What a bunch of idiots Channel Five in Mobile are. They are now showing a 'Live' report on the TN/AL game that is on tape with the game still underway.
The game ended several minutes ago.

Sorry dayhiker, Final score:
17 TENN
13 BAMA


Did I forget to say MSU beat Florida 38-31 today? I LIKE saying that, a lot! As a matter of fact, I think I'll say that again.
Mississippi State University beat The University of Florida 38-31 today. LOL

Now that was some old school Bama - UT football!! My hat's off to Bama they played a great game, especially the D. If they can find a passing game, look out! I was gettin' a little worried in the week leading up to the game, Vols players didn't seem to be up for the game.

And oh man! What happened to Florida!?! My hatred for the Gators has turned to pity. Zook couldn't eat or sleep after losing to LSU, now they may have to call in a psychiatrist for the poor guy.

Yep, classic old school game. You're right about the passing game. Football is about picking up the slack when others go down. Pennington isn't doing that. If Croyle was still healthy we'd be 8-0, but he's not and we're not. That's life.

Man did UT adjust and shut down our running game. I'm still super impressed with Darby. That guy can run. I'm also impressed with the way our D played. All in all we went toe to toe with a superior team with superior talent. Bama fans need to remember that. We're coming off the scholly reductions and ran with the big boys. That's a good step. We just need an upset win along the way like Croom got yesterday.

Another agonizing defeat for the Cardinal. Just as in the Notre Dumb game, they got a first and goal early in the game but couldn't get it into the end zone. Difference between FG and TD proved to be the difference between a W and an L. Did make it interesting with 1 second left - 49-yard FG attempt fell about a foot short of the crossbar. Three losses now by a total margin of 14 points. Ouch.

How was your celebration? Got a hangover? hee hee.
