I won't watch -- I'll be at a cousin's wedding. Who the hell gets
married on Saturdays in the fall, anyway? Gay men?

I think UW will be a trendy pick this week, but I expect Tressel to
have his troops ready after last week's zip-less effort.

Also, tOSU's defense hasn't given up a TD this year (even if they
haven't played anyone we know yet).

I hate Phil Fulmer, and I don't even follow the SEC.

I hope McFadden runs all over Saban's face.

I agree.

Hawai'i had a trap game _last week_, and they know what UNLV almost
did. I suspect they will be re-focused this week.
