NCAA = Not Consistent At All. I'm not really surprised by this.

TLK

Reggie Bush didn't miss a game either.

Saw this one traveling down I-40 today! Almost here! I cannot wait!

The season officially kicks off TONIGHT!!! Can UNC pull off the upset against SC? I'll be rooting for UNC.

I think SC is VASTLY overrated! I know they have Clowney but they're breaking in a young OL, they don't have Lattimore, they don't have Alshon Jeffries, plus their recruiting classes the last couple of years have not been that great. Are they a top 25 team? Yes. Are they a top 10 team? No!

They should have just made it a full game. By halftime the Aggies will already be up by 4 touchdowns and no point in bringing in Manziel after that.

In a lot of ways the only real thing hurt in this suspension in Manziel's Heisman campaign. The game against Rice would have been an opportunity for him to put up some huge numbers, but it's unlikely he'll get the chance to do much now when A&M should be killing Rice by the time he gets in.

Regardless of what he does this season I can't imagine a scenario where Manziel would have a shot at winning the Heisman again. Heisman voters want winners to hold themselves to a higher degree and Manziel's actions in the last 8 months have been embarrassing. I think a lot of voters will refuse to vote for Manziel regardless of what he does on the field this season.

Ya, Manziel is not winning the Heisman unless he puts up ridiculous numbers. Had voters known last year what they know now about Manziel I seriously doubt he would have won the Heisman last season.

I bought a new house and am moving tomorrow and had to turn in my cable boxes today because I'm going DirecTV in my new house. Therefore, I'm going to be stuck watching tonight's games in standard definition. Not sure even real football will be enough for me to suffer through such a horrible picture.

Come on now. I hate USuCk but they have a very good shot at winning the SEC. They own everyone in the east and play no one from the west this year. Their D is strong. Best D line in the country arguably. That hurts to say. Deep at RB and pretty good at receiver when you include the TEs. Connor Shaw is 17-2 as a starter. I can't believe I just took up for them but they are gong to be a force this year. Bank on it. I hope I'm wrong and they go back to the hole they belong in but it's not happening this year. CU will put them down at the end of the year.

Congrats on the new home.

I was a little surprised South Carolina went along with an away game against my Knights. South Carolina plays UCF in Orlando this season. Typically big name schools don't want a non conference road game against a smaller conference school who could potentially give them a game. That's what happened with the big name school we played last year. They only wanted a home game.

Congrats on the new Dome. You seem to be someone who is always well prepared. You'll be watching HD by Saturday.

UCF is piling it on Akron, leading 38-0 in the 4th.

I bet they are trying to recruit FL better. They see CU coming down there and taking some ofthe best and think they can too. Only morons go to that school.

[ChadFL]

Hah, typical southern weather. UNC-SC is being delayed due to lightning.

[ChadFL]

Wow, Towson is going to beat UConn. It's 26-10 with 5 minutes left. Was UConn supposed to be this bad?

[emac213]

Vandy looking pretty good right now.

[emac213]

Damn this is a awesome game

We will still be terrible, man. Don't get your hopes up.

After watching Vandy suck tonight though, if we can't beat them in Neyland, there's simply no hope.

[emac213]

Damn Vandy just gave this one away. Best game of the night.
