Ladies and Gentleman, Peeps of All Three Sexes, the College football season is here!!!
Tonight's slate works out a little somethin' like this (Due to East Coast bias, all times are Eastern):
7:00 PM Buffalo at #16 Rutgers
7:00 PM Miami (OH) at Ball State
7:00 PM Southeast Missouri State at Cincinnati
7:30 PM Murray State at #10 Louisville
8:00 PM #2 LSU at Mississippi State

And in a few short hours, I'll be heading on a jet plane to the West for:
10:00 PM Utah at Oregon State
Break out a case of Pabst, throw some steaks on the grill, and find a foam finger, the season is here!
I'll take LSU. Since it's a road game, will you give me 3 points?
Taking 3 on the road in the SEC...not bad thinking there, even if no one really thinks Miss. St will be much of a challenge for them.
Finally.
All times Eastern

Church Deacon, OU Fan Tears Scrotum Of UT Fan In Bar Fight
August 24, 2007
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. — Aggravated assault charges have been filed against a church deacon and University of Oklahoma Sooners fan after officials say he grabbed a University of Texas fan between the legs during a scuffle in an Oklahoma bar.
A couple of months before the annual Red River Shootout between the Sooners and Longhorns, words were exchanged at Henry Hudson’s Pub between Allen Beckett, 53, and Brian Thomas. Witnesses said it was because Thomas was wearing a UT T-shirt.
Neither Thomas or Beckett chose to comment, but the police report described what happened to the victim, including graphic details about his injuries that included a torn scrotal sack with partially exposed testicles.
Beckett’s attorney, Billy Bock, said his client’s actions were in self-defense.
“Sure, he’s an OU fan. Not necessarily an overboard die-hard OU fan, but he certainly admits he said something in a joking fashion to the guy about his Texas T-shirt. The guy got offended. He said he was sorry,” said Bock.
Bock said the apology apparently wasn’t enough for the Texas fan and the man then approached his client. He said his client then grabbed the man in self-defense.
“The guy came over his other shoulder, and basically said, ‘I’m getting ready to kick your you-know-what.’ He said he felt threatened and he did what he thought he needed to do and grabbed him and left the bar,” said Bock.
Bock adds that his client isn’t a hardened criminal, but is a church deacon who makes his living as a government auditor who had gone to the bar that night for one reason — to play darts.
I'm watching that game right now on my FCS channel. The first college football game I ever saw as a kid was the 1971 Oregon State-Georgia game. Georgia won 56-26.
