I'll kick off the year by announcing that I will be making my 2nd (and 3rd and 4th) visit to Kinnick Stadium for some Hawkeye Football. Despite being a life-long Hawk fan I've only made the trek one time (2003 Homecoming vs Michigan). Needless to say, I'm thrilled beyond belief. Going for the games vs Arizona, Arkansas State, and Minnesota.

We will be making the trip to Raleigh for the opener between the Pack vs Cocks and hopefully scoring tickets for the Heels visit to Raleigh as well.

I'm thinking of going to Auburn on 9/19 but I honestly have some trepidation about this year with White and Slaton gone...

I've been trying to get tix to Beaver Stadium for our Big Ten home opener v Iowa. I think it could really set the tone for how PSU is going to be this year. I'm just not comfortable droping the $125 each that people seem to be asking. I may try and score some gameday tix. Nov 7 when Ohio State Suckeyes come to town is the other game I have circled.

I'll be at the Colorado/UT game.

I'm going to make it to Lincoln, NE for one Husker game this year. It'll probably be against Texas Tech, Iowa State, or Kansas State. I'm leaning Texas Tech right now. I have to get a few people to agree on the same game so we'll see what happens.

Get ready, you are going to see an amazing game with Arkie State. They beat the Ags last year and were cheated out of the tu game the year before. This is prob their best team of the three.

Darn, I thought that might be the team that my buddy's nephew plays for. I guess it's Southern Arkansas. Austin Civita, QB. He's gonna be good.

He better be able to frakkin run. I mean run like Tommie Frazier or he will die. That is the most brutal style of offense I have ever seen. Think Paul Johnson at Ga Tech and before that Navy.

Scratch that, I forgot they change coaches. Its only an hour from here. Come up and I'll take you to a game.

Working on Sept.12th vs USC and Illinois later in the year. I will most likely will end up with Illinois only.

I really would love to get Wisconsin tickets, but trying to trade dates with my ex is like( the broncos and cardnials) trying to trade Brandon Marshall or Boldin.

If my buddy comes out to see him play, this might just happen. My buddy and his fiancee are thinking about coming to Austin for a few days and then driving up there to see him play (assuming he's the starter, which he may be).

At Cowboys Stadium starting this year right?

The Cotton Bowl was renovated and expanded last year in order to keep that game there through at least 2015.

Really? I'm surprized JJ let that happen.

Arkansas/A&M play at Cowboys Stadium starting this season.

Washington Huskies bounce back from an 0-12 campaign to open up vs. LSU September 5th.

A good old fashion butt kicking coming your way.

Get ready for the biggest upset of this decade!

Oooh...big talk for an 0-12 opponent. Sorry LA-Monroe wasn't available for your scheduling.

Uh, I don't know if it'd be considered that, even if it did happen. Jake Locker is gonna be good and UW will likely experience a resurgence in the next few years, but I seriously doubt they'll contend with LSU. LSU's gonna be real, real good (again) this coming season.

Sept 26 - @ FSU (got a line on this one)

Nov 28 - Hosting Miami (already there)


Most important schedule yet in USF's brief history. Of course there's that conference thing too...


GO BULLS!!!

A guy can dream, can't he?

Heard the early line is around 16.

Watching "College Football Live" and Andre Ware predicted that the Sooners would go 8-4, including a Week 1 loss to BYU.

I was planning on it being around 23 or 24. That gives me a lot of extra dough not to slam on the Huskies if it's that low.

Aw, c'mon! WVU will be fine. They do play in the Big East afterall. The only team they have to worry about is the team in south FL that seems to have their number.

I'll be at the Red River Shoot Out, unless something comes up to squash those plans. I think I've only missed two in the last 10 years.

ETA: 57-40-5

There's a very remote chance I'll make it up to this one. Very, very remote.

Let me know if you get to go. I'll buy you a beer, a corndog, and a fried twinkie.

:homerdrool: x 3

Opened 3 weeks ago as low as 14 and climbing up to around 17-17.5 depending on the book. Probably pretty accurate, but I have a feeling that Washington keeps this a little closer (2 scores or less, perhaps), but not sure it's enough of a feeling to throw scratch their way.
