The music is inconsequential, since you can't hear it in the stadium anyway.

NCAA has determined that the bullet is a "gift" and declared Deadrick ineligible and Alabama has to forfeit any games he's played in or observed (if he watched it on TV it counts).

I bet it was a barner!

I predict that Auburn loses to either La Tech or Miss State but somehow gets to a bowl game. Gonna be a tough year. I love Tuberville for the good times, but man did he take a vacation from recruiting the last few years. True freshman are playing all over the place.

Well, I'm sure hiring a guy coming off a 2-10 year at Iowa State is just the thing to get recruits excited. Saban or Chizik, tough choice!

I understand your point, but when Mizzou leaves guys open by at least 15 yards 40 yards down the field multiple times in one game (like they did v Illinois in 2008), they will get no respect. I watched them blow assignment after assignment that game.

Predictions for the biggest upset on week 1? Highest Ranked team to lose week one?

Obviously it's going to be one of Bama/VT for the ranked team. Outside of that, not too many possible upsets from the top teams, maybe Washington and Locker can put it together under a new coach and upset LSU at home? I doubt it, but there isn't much else out there.

2 separate questions

VT beating Alabama or vice versa wouldn't be a huge upset, but forgot this game was week 1 for some reason. Definitely don't expect any team higher than VT to lose.

5 is pretty much the bottom unless there is a plane crash of injuries.

It helps that we have a QB that can throw more than 10 yards.

yeah... it would be cool to get unbanned

apparently it is bad forum behavior to compare lawyers and law students to Nazi Germany's SS... who knew?
well, I know now

Can someone with more power than Elliot just unban the MT2R account already? I mean enough with this "wisdom cube" nonsense.

At first I thought this weekends games were gonna suck, then i thought they were going to be good, now I think they're gonna suck.

BYU and UGA will probably get rolled. Bama- VTech will probably combine for 50 yrds of offense. No idea what to expect from FSU-Miami but the fact that its not sold out is a bad sign.

Basically leaves the game of the week to Boise- Oregon (which actually should be a fantastic game). Runners up Nevada- ND, Maryland-Cal, and Ill-Mizzou?

btw the UCLA- SDSU game is still being scheduled for Sat. Dunno how many people have been following, but the fires here in SoCal have been ridic. In Pasadena theres basically a fog of smoke. I have no idea how they can play that game.
