Coaching first volleyball match of season right before this kicks off.   I always stash my phone with my wife during matches to keep away all distractions. 

Nebraska will be a mixed bag and I think they finish with more points than Northwestern.   Staying away from the line.

At least when it was just the Pigskin and Kickoff Classics it was a pair of good games

Agreed.  It was generally the Pigskin Classic Saturday on ABC, followed by the LLWS (back when only the championship was televised), with the Kickoff on Sunday?

One of the best games I ever attended was one of those.  In Lloyd Carr's first game as head coach, a last second win negated some terrible decisions by him.  Down 17-0 in the 47th, Michigan scored 3 4th quarter TDs, but for some reason went for 2 after the first two, failing both.  So they needed a TD on the final play, trailing 17-12, instead of having the option to kick a tying FG.  Granted, would they?  I love weighing that option.  But the other forgotten part is that prior to the TD, Tyrone Butterfield (nicknamed Butterfingers, and rightfully so) dropped a pass right in his hands that would have resulted in the clock running out.

I loved the stupid tie at the Big A.  When the Pigskin was neutral site.

I actually think this was supposed to be neutral, but due to logistics, Michigan hosted.  But they still painted one end zone for Virginia
