Ahhh.....
I love the smell of Game Day in the morning. That, and good coffee. Mmmm.
Not to be a douche, but are there 2 kickers named Chris Summers? Brothers, maybe? Named liked George Foreman’s kids?
Where is everyone? There’s only 3:45:00 til kickoff!

YAAAAAAAAWNNN
Not used to this noon game stuff. I hope the team is awake! Remember last year’s “11am” start in Wisconsin? Morelli still had eye crusties on his first possession.

Yeah that's odd
Not sure what the deal is with the kicker’s evil twin. I just pull these stats from our stat service. They seem to mess up a lot of stuff.

Go easy
Your honey sounds hot!
Feel free, however, to give a raft-o’-shit to the bride – SHE scheduled the damn thing.
The best I can offer is text updates, but you’ll have to e-mail your cell #. I’ll be happy to help, and promise to not leave it on gay porn message boards. At least til after the game.
streak1506@aol.com. You can trust me. As far as you know.

Dave Jones saying that JoePa will be in Pressbox today
…or to be fair and specific, that they are setting up a space for him in the Pressbox.

Heard it would be a ‘game time’ decision. Regardless, this team should beat Purdue by 342 points, I predict.

Is Kory Sheets a tailback?
I thought he was a wide out.

I figured the sign would read whatis more useless Auburn’s offense or an Auburn degree?

Who wins the osu and wiscy game? Which is better for us?
by biscoiv on Oct 4, 2008 11:41 AM EDT 0 recs
Personally
I think we need Ohio State to win. Let them work their way back into the top 10 so they look more impressive when we play. I would rather play one great team and one good team than just two good teams.

True
But if Wisky beats OSU, then they both have one conference loss each. If we beat both, we have a two-game lead and can afford a miscue down the stretch and still win the Big Ten title outright.

Pregame Updates
Donnie Collins is reporting from the Press Box. Sounds like a chilly day. Norwood is dressed for the game. Sounds like the local media wants a new quarterback. He also predicts the Black Out is going to suck.

Norwood
Will Norwood play? Should he play? Or should we give him another week to rest his hammy?
by The Mess on Oct 4, 2008 11:44 AM EDT 0 recs
Personally I think we should rest him one more week. We shouldn’t really need him this week, but will the next 3. Better safe then sorry

is we don’t see him play. We should have plenty of weapons to beat Purdue.

Zug or Brackett
Who gets the better chance to prove himself on the field? Zug’s been getting more PT than Brackett, right?

What about
Chaz Powell? I’d like to see him get some touches. Maybe the coaches are keeping him under wraps until Wisconsin.

How is a Black Out supposed to make it seem like a night game environment when they only have one level of seating?

Breaks my heart
to see Joe in the booth. I guess we are probably looking at his last season.
I hope the boys win him NC #3 for his swan song.

I know there's a newfound faith in the offense...
…but just run the ball on 2nd and 1, get yourself a new set of downs.

Just backed up that 3rd and 1 play
Looks like Royster was supposed to go left but decided to go right. Lawlor had the outside sealed too. If he had gone left and bounced outside he would have scored.

How is it acceptable?
That people keep bringing up the dark years when talking about this year’s chances?

Same reason
That OSU fans bring up the past two years as to why they’ll win the B10 this year.
