This should be a real good one!
Who do you like in the OSU/Texas showdown?
I'm torn but picked Texas just because of home field.

the snap was a bit high, but the hold had his hands screwed up.

I have to pick Ohio State because of homerism. It will be a very tight game either way. I'm going to a sports bar to watch it with some friends who are UT alumns. That should be interesting regardless of who triumphs.

I could do without another Brady Quinn = Mainframe and Charlie Weis = Codewriter comparisons....

No division 1A football program other than BC.

Their following isn't that small for a college of perhaps 10,000 people.

I cant believe Stoops has been so bad at recruiting QB's, why in the world werent they 2-3 deep at that position.

I just don't think BC has the sports legacy that some other schools like ND or Penn State has...

They used to play in the Big East but now play ACC. People may crowd the stadium to watch UNC play basketball but few will to watch them play football.

The mainframe/codewriter was pretty lame. ND says they've recovered a fumble...and they did

Friday Night Lights never struck me as a movie that could be made into a television series.

Yeah, but its not like you see thousands upon thousands piling in to see a Harvard or BU game...I guess Boston just isn't a big college sports city?

They do love their college hockey.

Sure, they might sell out down in NC, but people from the Northeast don't care about watching them play.
