The football question we have here in Ann Arbor is "Will the Wolverines be able to win another game this year?", sadly the general consensus in no. But then again we are also the home of the Detroit Lions so losing is not a novelty

Well, I remember Barry Sanders! I'm still not sure which was better for the Bucs - changing the orange to red and pewter, or that Barry Sanders was no longer their nemesis! I can remember when all I could cheer for with the Bucs was that they got a first down! I've been lucky with the teams I've pulled for in the college ranks - but even there, you go through the dry spells. Here's hoping you can see something to cheer you this year. And there's always the next year. I gather by this story, that your coach is new? So call it a rebuilding year. I gather, also, the writer doesn't think there's much of a chance against Penn State?

I showed my ignorance, didn't I? The article led me to believe that Michigan hadn't yet played Penn State. So this time, I checked the schedule. Only games left for Michigan are Minnesota, Northwestern (home), and Ohio State.
FL has been known to pull for an Ohio State loss.

The question now is will the Lions really go 0 - 16? It seems likely looking at their schedule.

Penn State - a shocker. Sorry, Lady Di.
Score is tied in the AL vs LSU game, with about 6 minutes to go. Not sure whether I want LSU to beat them, or wait until the SEC championship game for FL to beat them.
Now I need Texas Tech to get knocked off soon.
And the Gators can't afford to get complacent with Vanderbilt tonight, or the Citadel next week. And then FSU is always an emotional game where we each want to knock off the other.

Well, I'm ready to watch the Gators play now. Marge and our grandson and I all have our Gator colors on. Alabama won, but people should be able to compare what we did with LSU (we trounced them).
And we'll meet Alabama in the SEC championship game.
