Ohio State Buckeyes

I haven't really written much lately because I've been pretty busy.. of course, that doesn't mean I don't think about football.

1.  Chris Spielman is awesome.  No nonsense, says what he thinks and how he feels.  He expects players to make plays, I wonder if he would ever want to coach.  If so, you've got to give him an interview.. at least.  I guarantee his team would have instant toughness and not hurt themselves.  There are some mid-major programs that could use this guy.

The first weekend of college football is nearly over; we've got the 2nd half of the Colorado vs. Colorado State game and tomorrow features Cincy vs. Rutgers and Miami vs. FSU.  I do have some interesting thoughts on the opening weekend.

Well, if you followed me it looks like you cashed in with plenty of room to spare on the Tulsa/Tulane game.  No big deal; it's just what I do.  I win college football bets.  1-0 posting here on the year.  For those of you keeping track at home that is a 1000% winning percentage.  Undefeated some of us like to call it.  That makes me better than Rocky, who lost a lot.  Has anybody ever noticed that about Rocky?  He lost to Apollo, beat Apollo, lost to Clubber, beat Clubber, beat Drago, beat Tommy "Machine" Gunn in an unsanctioned fight (doesn't count for the record), and lost to Mason Dixon.  That's 3-3 in fights that I've seen him in, and the guy has 5 movies!  Unreal.  He supposedly defended his title 10 times before losing it to Clubber, but I don't know about that.  All I know is that he's not smart, but he takes a lickin and keeps on tickin.  Any Stratford football fans out there, that might remind you of one:  Mike Wilke.

As Week Three of the college football season approaches, athletic directors nationwide have blessed us with a delectable amount of non-conference football match-ups which give the keen observer an indication as to which conference boasts the best overall talent.  Non-conference play will reach it climax this Saturday night as Ohio State limps in to USC.  One of these two programs has played in five of the last six national championship games.  The vest against the best.  And although Beanie Wells isn’t (allegedly) 100%, could we really ask for anything more?
