Stop Worrying About Life, Football Has Arrived: Week One Thread

[MaximumSam]

I keep waking up at 5 am like some sort of old man, so might as well roll out the thread. We have three B1G games tonight, and three tomorrow, so might as well start early. Busy time for me, closing on a home equity loan for my kitchen and then meeting with the kitchen guy today. No real clue how that will go. The better news is the family is going to California with my wife's parents tomorrow, leaving me with four glorious days of watching football without anyone bothering me.

PSA:  Here's a good website to keep track of games, times, channels, etc.

Despite the website name, there is no particular focus on LSU; it's a useful and usable guide for anyone.

Guess I'll miss Purdue's lone win* of the season since they made it on a work day where I'll be in training and then traveling home. 

(* at least I hope we eek this one out.)

Just think, if Rutger hadn't joined the B1G, we couldn't watch Thursday evening Rutger B1G football.

And maybe lose!

Time to watch the "what if" 1990 National Championship game of GA Tech vs CU.

[GopherRock]

Season 18 here at the New Brickhouse is under way on Peacock. 

Our seats are nice for watching the game, but we're looking right into the sun for early season night games. Add in the fact that there isn't a breath of breeze here, and is a trifle warm.

Evidently, UMass has gone 7-53 in the last 5 seasons. Even they are prolly bitching Rutgers isn't helping their strength of schedule. Big Jim Delaney actually got paid for bringing this program aboard??? SMDH
