That wasn't WV football I saw yesterday. It was a Wake Forest clone. The defense was simply terrible. My God, we have no secondary. Just none.

If you want, my daughter will suit up for you.

Jack Kent Cooke must be turning over in his grave. If he ever even thought that the team would leave his family, I'm sure he would have done his will differently. He just intended for his son to pay the foundation so the it could carry on charitable activities. He would never have dreamed that someone would pay so much--and then do so little for the fans and the team.

Hey Centex!

What is the Burnt Orange going to do this weekend? I heard this morning the game in Austin has been postponed since IKE is due in about kick off time?

They can watch #1 ranked USC play Ohio State.

If the power goes out, they will get a second chance to watch #1 ranked USC when #1 ranked USC plays East Carolina in the National Championship game.

UT welcomes a chance to play USC again...they even welcome an opportunity to do it while USC is ranked #1, since we know how well that worked out for USC the LAST time around...

As to this weekend's game, I am still waiting to get details on the rescheduled date...I was in Houston when the announcement came down. I was supposed to have still been down there through tomorrow but decided to get while the getting was good...drive back to Austin wasn't too bad until I got near Elgin on 290. I am convinced, though, that EVACUEE must be French for 'can't drive worth a damn.'

I heard September 29th - but that's all I know.

Mary....land beat #23 Cal.....that is our Super Bowl!!!

As for driving, our problem is that people here stay here. At the slightest sign of rain everyone slows down to 12 MPH. And if it snows 1/4 inch everyone stops at the bottom of a hill and starts to cry.

Maybe that is why every team within 100 miles of me sucks in football.....there is more estrogen in the water than there is water in the water.

My husband and I had to be at UM today for an event unrelated to the ball game. At 5 PM (the game had been over for almost two hours) you could still hardly get on campus.

They were still tailgating when we left around 7.

Certainly don't get these polls. Last week after losing, we fall from #8 to #25. This week despite not playing, we go up to #22.

See y'all at CU on Thursday...

Did the altitude keep your breath? You've been quiet...what happened in the game?

I was less that thrilled with the UT effort today...they gave up about 320 yards, with 240 or so of that being in the first half. Our back-up quarterback has apparently not been given the green light to throw a forward pass, which means that the Big12 schools will be able to just load the box and drop back two safeties just in case he did try to throw after a busted option sweep.

To make matters worse, Rice didn't bring their band with them...I really enjoy watching the MOB.

With the final only being 52-10, my guess is we drop a spot in the rankings. And with Alabama kicking the crap out of Arkansas, that says we need to win by a similar score next week to avoid losing pace in the rankings. It is bad enough that ATM continues to suck which really hurts strength of schedule.

I'm beginning to think having ATM in a conference hurts as bad as being stuck with Rutgers or West Virginia...

Hannah's internet access is unreliable at the moment.

But believe me, I heard about it. Lets just say, given my high school's third bad performance in a row, there is a bunch of naked chickens running around, both here, and in WV.
