Despite quarterback questions, LSU will inevitably teach Michigan what its supposed to when a FCS team pays a visit. I can guarantee App St. has never played in that kind of environment.

The big house is pretty daunting, even if it is a bunch of Big Ten fans. The really crazy ones are the losers that never even went to the school, they'll get loud.

I've actually heard and read a couple articles about how while yes, the Big House is large, Mee-chigan fans are notorious for sitting on their hands during the game. I'll see if I can find them.
From a blog from a Michigan kid.... http://michiganzone.blogspot.com/200...keys-away.html
I've never been to a game in Death Valley, but from stories I've heard from my parents and some friends in the A&M Band that have gone to games there, its a completely hostile atmosphere. And thats' back in the Hallman-DiNardio time period when they weren't lighting the world on fire. God help Appy if its a night game.

It's not. It will be at 4PM Central Time on ESPN. That way we all get to fry.

Much the same thing at LSU really. Thats why LSU hardly ever plays anyone in-state, most Louisiana collegians are fans of their own college, but LSU will inevitably trump it every time. I myself am much like that, my own schools football program is nothing to scoff at, they are pretty damn good in their own division, but its nothing like LSU.

Pretty much everyone is a backup at some point... he'll do fine.

College Football and Alex Trebek
I had to share that one of my "favorite" teams made it onto "Jeopardy" today.
$200 clue referenced the team that played in the 2006 and 2007 BCS Championship Games for two consecutive years but did not fare well due to a total of 79 - 38 between both games.
I howled with laughter. So much, that I could not answer, "WHO IS OHIO STATE?" It would've been beautiful if someone had shouted,
"GO SEC!!!" 
On another note, the last question referenced Boise State's 2006 Fiesta Bowl win and the player winning his girlfriend's heart with a proposal.
I need August 30 to get here pronto.

What you guys think about Ole Miss. (Obviously not a national title contender), but with Nutt and a possibly decent quarterback whose to say a possible bowl appearance?

I wouldn't be surprised at all. Ole Miss manages to have some quality talent. Not enough to be all that good, but probably enough to win 6 games with Nutt there now.
This is why I think Florida will be able to head back to the National Championship this year.
http://www.gatorcountry.com/football...ng_bullet/3925
"Imagine this. You’re the defensive coordinator of a Southeastern Conference team on Florida’s schedule this year. You’re sitting up in the booth, still trying to figure out what you’re going to do next time Dan Mullen slips Chris Rainey into the backfield to go along with Percy Harvin and Brandon James in the slots and suddenly the Gators break the huddle with Louis Murphy, Deonte Thompson, Percy Harvin and Chris Rainey. Then you notice the guy on the far side of the field. That’s Jeff Demps. We’re talking about trouble, right here in River City and that’s trouble with a capital T.
Murphy has run a 4.27 40 yards and he’s a sprinter on the Florida track team. Thompson has done 100 meters in 10.3 seconds, Harvin has done it in 10.4 and Rainey outran Walter Dix in the first leg of the 4X100 relay at the NCAA Track and Field Championships a couple of weeks ago.
And then there is Demps. Saturday he did a 10.01 in the hundred meters at the Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon and by the way, he beat Dix to the tape in the quarter-final race in which he not only tied the world record for his age group, but broke the all-time American record for 100 meters by a high school kid."

A bowl appearance and nothing more.
Nutt is the epitome of mediaocrity.

I think it will help Ole Miss some, but Croom is still the best coach in the state. State and Ole Miss both make a bowl for the first time in a while, but aside from State maybe knocking off Bama again or something neither makes a lot of waves in the SEC this year.

College Football
It is RIGHT around the corner. I am giddy as a schoolgirl
I'm sure you've seen some of the major players for 2008 per most rankings:
Ohio State returns a REDICULOUS amount of starters.
Georgia ended last year strong, and looks good.
Oklahoma returns a nasty offense.
Missouri is the media darling.
Florida with the RB at QB.
SC breaking in a new QB.
What do you think?

I'd like to say there's a thread down around here somewhere.
Ohio State sucks. Can't wait for them to be proven overrated yet again.
The winner of Georgia v. Florida will win the National Championship.
It's SEC FOOTBALL!
