Looking at the picture of Frank reminds me of story when Solich (as a FB at Nebraska) was trying to avoid being the lightest guy on the team, so he tied and concealed a weight to himself at weigh-in in an attempt to add a few pounds.  It didn't work, he was still the lightest back on the team.

Wyoming spanked Sugar Shane and the Chippewas. 

From today's results, we can safely extrapolate that the Mac East is indeed deeper than the Mac West.

Pretty bleak slate tomorrow. 

Birmingham: Texas Tech - South Florida

Armed Forces - San Diego St - Army  

Saving the best for last... 

Dollar General - Appalachian State and Toledo; the battle of the two teams that have recently orchestrated monster Michigan upsets.

Builders made great progress this week, specifically the framers.  Getting our first snow of the season this morning.  May have to check out a bowl game for once today. I missed MAC week

I can remember when homes weren't built in the winter

Always wanted to design and build my own home.  Had a couple designs drawn up.

Good times

Heh!  Great pictures of Fearless Frankie.

That top picture almost looks like it's from an OU game, but I think it's vs. Arkansas in the '64 (season) Cotton Bowl.

#2 and #3 are from the '65 Air Force game, where Solich became the first Husker to run for 200 yards.

I liked it when UCLA and Nebraska wore those curly-cue-font numbers on their jerseys.

Some of these smaller bowls could stand out with some kitschy sponsorship. If you're not going to take advantage of the given geography - Cactus Bowl,  Sun Bowl, Citrus Bowl - what do you have to lose going low brow and having Hooters sponsor your Bowl? In fact, I think Hooters tried but were turned down by the NCAA, but they'd be a perfect fit for one of those pre-Christmas Florida-based bowls. First Hooters opened in Sarasota. The New Mexico Bowl could be sponsored Alienware. Today's Birmingham Bowl could be better sponsored by Waffle House. The Military Bowl could be sponsored by Old Bay. Anyway, my point is that Hooters (or Twin Peaks or Tilted Kilt) should get a bowl.

When is the move happening?

We're going to Florida in a couple of months with the goal being to purchase a vacant lot on the water. My plan is to build much of the home myself, but we'll see.
