College Football Kickoff

So Virginia Tech has invited Nas to play a free concert for their students Sept. 6th, as a benefit to the school and community for the shooting spree tragedy that happened on campus last year. Nas, who I must admit I'm not too familiar with (so I won't pass judgement), has a song that contains the lyrics...

"Shoot 'em up! Just shoot 'em up! What? Kill! Kill! Kill! Murder! Murder! Murder! Shoot 'em up! Just shoot 'em up! What? Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Alrighty then.

to the game on the field...

Not a great card to get started, but I'll take college ball over the NFL any day of the week. Unless, of course, we're talking the Black & Gold. Here's a few I'll keep an eye on this Saturday, at least in between real football games :)

Florida International at Penn St. Joe Pa should have this one in the bag by half.

Georgia Tech at Notre Dame. Always fun watching Notre Dame lose, especially when it's at home in front of their pompous fan base. Chubby Charlie Weiss was at it again this week, refusing to tell the media who he'd start at QB. Dick.

Tennessee at Cal. Rarely does Tennessee make a trip west of the Mississippi. That means, a) no annoying "Rocky Top" chants, and b) Cal shouldn't be intimidated like they were last year in front of 100,000 + in Knoxville. I expect the Bear to get some revenge this year, although I'm staying away from the line. Nice prime time affair to get the season started.

Oklahoma St. at Georgia. I'm liking the Bulldog here...in a big way. Oky St's a nice club, but I think the Bulldog whales. Remember a couple years ago when Boise St came to play between the hedges. They were a slight Teed underdog as well, and went back to Idaho with their tits peeled. Look for the same to happen here.

Bobby Mo in action today at the friendly confines of Joe Walton, taking on Dayton. Go to Colonials Corner...RMU play-by-play guy Andrew Chiappazzi's got your whole scoop. GO BOB!!!!!!!

Tomorrow...

11:00 am. Aston Villa vs. Chelsea. Piper's Pub. Boxties. Bloodies. Who's with me?
