Glory into combat for the Purple and the White!

I hope everybody has calmed down from this JBJ crizap and is ready to watch an amazing Saturday of college football. (but I've got some thoughts about all this JBJ stuff I'll throw out there in a later post)

But for now, I'm ready for a nice Saturday of college football. I'd like to list the games and give some thoughts, but I don't know squat about anything. I just like to watch the games and cheer for my teams. Plus it's late Friday afternoon and nobody will probably read this until after most (if not all) of the games have been played.

But here's what I do know about KSU vs Marshall. I'm scared to death about this game. We've split with them the last two years, each winning on the road. So who knows about Saturday. Marshall hasn't looked good so far this year, but that's what we said two years ago when they embarrassed us in our house for what they called "the biggest win in school history" (KSU was fresh off a Big 12 Championship)

And don't get me started about next weeks matchup against Lousiville. The one good thing I can say is that I hope is shuts up all the "KSU only plays cupcakes" talk. Lets take a look shall we?

1: USC... beat them home and away
2: Cal... top 25
3: Louisville... top 25
4: Iowa... top 25
5: Marshall... Bowl team the past two years
6: Texas... national champions
7: Oklahoma... stomped them when people were saying they were the "greatest college football team ever"
8: The rest of the Big 12.
9: Heisman Winners: R. Williams, E. Crouch, C. Palmer, J. White... beat them all.

yea, we play our shares of Florida Atlantics and ULM's... but nobody said jack when Nebraska played Nicholls State, or when Texas played North Texas. I guess I'm a little bitter because I think KSU's soft schedule is way behind them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but we've set up a Home/Away with Miami (or was it Michigan?) Ether way, that's a powerhouse that'll get us ready for the Big 12.

But... I'll be heading up the bayou to Thibodaux on Saturday to watch the game with some other KSU grads at a Wildcat Watch Party. Should be a good time.

Have a great weekend and be careful what you say about a particular singer with funny looking hair... you might get hounded by these folks.

Here's a nice highlight video of us beating USC in Calif. Best part is at the end when Snyder doesn't say a word to Pete Carroll after the game. Troy Polamalu took a cheap shot on Aaron Lockett on a punt return. Snyder didn't like it.
