BCS Week 1


Well, the first BCS college football poll was released yesterday. The Buckeyes pulled in at #9, which is a step up from the #10 rankings they received in the AP and USA Today polls. Goes to show the computers like us a bit more than the humans do. Seems the humans voters still can't get over our losses in the past two national championship game. No bias there.

Of course this Saturday's game is a big one. #3 Penn St. comes to The Horseshoe for what will hopefully be a better game that the USC game. I have a feeling with Pryor running the offense, it'll be a very interesting game. Now hopefully our defense will be able to make the all important open field tackles that have been lacking.

Good article here.

I feel you on the open field tackles. Saturday will be all football all the time. I am going to the Michigan vs. Michigan St. game with my father-in-law. I'm indifferent, but he wants to see a game in the Big House. With our new house being so close, we can walk over there.

I'm hoping to score a Samsung ln40a650 by Saturday night to catch the osu vs. penn state game. That would be epic.
