Tonight, I'm going to the last baseball game at Rosenblatt Stadium. I'm setting the DVR to record the Pitt/Utah game and will probably watch USC/Hawaii some when I get home.

Saturday, the thumb's getting a huge workout and jumping all over the place...

Just found out that Shaq Evans transferred out of ND. He's probably going to Oregon. I thought that dude was going to be our #2 receiver this year. Instead, it's going to be T.J. Jones, a true freshman. Crazy.

Nebraska's probably going to be starting a redshirt freshman at QB...

Taylor Martinez? That dude's fast. Don't know too much about his arm, though.

Future of the big 10 will be exciting. Those Penn St./Nebraska matchups the next few years, look out!

Yep. The kid can run. Supposedly, he's a very capable passer, but his inexperience is causing a poor decision or two and could make him interception prone. The thought is that his play making ability more than makes up for it.

At least it's no longer possible to take the title while avoiding 2 of OSU, PSU, and Michigan if all 3 are strong. You are either in a division with OSU and PSU, or you play Michigan plus the winner of the other division, which if they are strong will be OSU or PSU.

What games are you watching tonight? Pittsburgh @ Utah and USC @ Hawaii for me, followed by Youngstown State @ PSU and then Texas @ Rice on Saturday.

Everything via ESPN3 and the 4 screen mosaic view in addition to whatever game on TV is best.

Now that the Big Ten has a championship game, I wonder if the Big 12 winner will start comming up short in the BCS every year? It seems like the Big Ten winner got hurt by not playing that extra game against a quailty opponent and usually would start slipping between the end of the Big Ten season, and the start of the championship games. Here's hoping that happens to Texas a few times

There won't be a Big 12. 1-2 more years of a crap deal that favors Texas at the expense of the entire rest of the conference will get the others to jump to the PAC-16/SEC/MWC.
