football already?!? It's still hockey season!
LOL!!!
It's coming my man :)
Notre Dame's first game in their national title season.
You have seen the worst team Notre Dame will field during the Charlie Weis era.
Great, there is nothing like losing to Notre Dame on opening day to really set the tone.... (Georgia Tech, Class of '87)
The sooner the season starts, the happier I am as a person.
LOL
oops :)
That's what I'm saying....
Oh Boy Brent Musburger!! /s
maybe, maybe not.
I've heard a LOT of FSU/USC/UF/Michigan/Penn State fans say that in the past as well....
he's better than Keith Jackson has been for the past 3 or 4 years.....
of course keith is a bunch older too. :)
Hey the BIG thing is that we will get Herbie for a couple of the games. He's a good color commentator.
LOL
actually it's a couple different cliches.....
with one you shotgun a beer...
with another you do a shot....
fun stuff....
>>LOL
oops :)<<
That's OK. We schedule like this all the time and every 5 years or so we get a big upset... and heck, we still hold the record for largest margin of victory ever in a college football game.
well there is that LOL
Actually GT doesn't look that bad this year. You will contend for the ACC division title I think.....your main rival in that division will be Miami, but as other teams have shown, they can be beaten on a good night....
From your lips to God's ears.
Hall Opens Doors for Paterno, Bowden
Congrats to the coaches!
