This season will be underway.

We are done to counting mere moments now, rather than months, weeks, even days.

Ugh ... the angst is getting to me.

My biggest interest is going to be in Utah and Michigan tonight.

How is big blue and we do they stand. Is Utah as good as people think.


Other questions that I'll be looking into tonight. Is Georgia Tech worthy of the valuation they are getting. Don't know that we will find out too much with their opponent tonight but they should perform to their ranking at least.

Other teams I'm interested in include TCU, Western Kentucky, Wake Forrest and UCF. TCU and Western Kentucky should be good as I expect. UCF and Wake Forrest are mysteries to me right now.

On the GT question, I don't think they are, but I could be wrong. Maybe my hatred is giving me an unperceived bias. :wink:

I've been feeling the same way.
I have nothing to grade them on.

Georgia Tech should be fine. I think they are moving in the right direction.

Michigan I am very interested in tonight. If they play Harbaugh quality defense, confusing the quarterback and shut down the Utes passing game, they could come away with a win.

I expect TCU to light up the score board, because that is what they do.

I am also curious to see the Colorado/Hawai`i game ... I wanna see if either team has made any improvements ... at all.

Tonight's Slate of Games:
South Carolina vs North Carolina 5:00 pm
Florida IU vs UCF 5:00 pm
Ball State vs VMI 6:01 pm
Oklahoma State vs Central Michigan 6:01 pm
Elon vs Wake Forest 6:01 pm
Stony Brook vs Toledo 6:01 pm
Eastern Illinois vs Western Illinois 6:01 pm
Central Arkansas vs Samford 6:01 pm
[not really on my schedule, but it is college]

Alcorn State vs 16 Georgia Tech 6:30 pm
Villanova vs Connecticut 6:30 pm
Western Kentucky vs Vanderbilt 7:00 pm
Michigan vs Utah 7:30pm
TCU vs Minnesota 8:00 pm
Ohio vs Idaho 8:00 pm
Duke vs Tulane 8:30 pm
Texas San Antonio vs 22 Arizona 9:00 pm
Colorado vs Hawaii 9:00 pm

And for those interested, the gators named Treon Harris Starting QB today; however, say "Harris Named Starter, but battle with Grier will continue".

My guess is the Lizards improved some, though, are in no means good shape. They could be in for a rough year

This made me laugh. It is true but that is not a sentence I would have expected to hear even 3 years ago for a Patterson team.

GT certainly seems to be doing whatever they want in that game. I haven't watched any but that score is beyond lopsided.
