When did the networks think it is a better idea to show the grody players between plays instead of the cheerleaders?

Inquiring minds want to know! :)

Seems like it took forever for college football season to get here.

Now, I have to make sure I savor it, because it also seems like it is done in a flash.

Folks, what are your teams?

I'm hoping that my beloved Michigan Wolverines do well.  :aok

I've seen predictions of 6 wins as well as 10 wins for Tennessee this season, we shall see. If they can get by Florida and Kentucky, they have a decent chance of winning the East. Let's see how this post ages lol.

The Vols looked very good tonight.  Easier game, yes, but did look good.

My Tennessee Vols looked superb. Albeit playing ball state. Still a convincing win. We used to barely win these games. Now we blow them out. Next week should be a proper challenge!

Some good games on tap today. I think objectively, the best matchup is UT at Pitt. I'm also intrigued at Arkansas's game as well as Texas Tech. Is Florida really this good? BYU Baylor has the makings of an embarrassment for the Cougars, in my opinion. Finally, as much as I hate Bama, wouldn't a stomping of Texas be fun?

So far Bama has played poorly. Lots of penalties.

In order

TCU
UT
Wisconsin

I do like the Wolves though and as long as they're not against one of my teams I pull for them.  That said I didn't watch any today as I wound up working most of the day. 

That said, mark it, in 1993 and 1994 I bought custom Dallas Cowboys jerseys and they won the SB (don't jack with me if I got the years wrong okay?).  The next year I didn't and they bonked.  The following year I bought another one and they won.  So I have two brand new ones (home and away) hanging up over there *points* so lay your bets down now boys.  I did email Jerry a few times about me being the good luck charm and all he had to do was send me a new jersey every year but he ignored me LOL

Great road win for the vols.  Good teams win bad games.
