Brian Kelly was also distracted by fundraising last year. No distractions so far this year but I'm sure ND nation is keeping a wary eye on his potential interest in hurricane relief efforts.

He wasn't distracted by losing? Interesting.

Add -3 (typically) for home advantage, so neutral -8, GA home -11

I'll be happy if either of those teams lose so it's a win win for me!

12k posts and I'm not sure where this one goes...

I'll be in Oxford for the Ole Miss game from tomorrow mid-afternoon thru Sunday AM.

(a) What to do?
(b) Anyone around?
(c) Anyplace better to post this?

Of course, looking at their scores last year, there were a ton of coin flip looking games, and what I can assume were a few quality losses?

Don't know about the new HC, but Kelly 1.0 had an uncanny talent for keeping his job.

The Northern Colorado vs Florida Gators game has been cancelled due to the hurricane. I see the usf game has been cancelled as well.

Dog, how can you forget that they beat the MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI STATE BULLDOGS FROM THE GODLIEST CONFERENCE IN THE UNIVERSE last year???
