2 ranked teams play tonight (Stanford vs. Rice is the 10:30 one) so kinda cool week zero.

Watching the HS game on ESPN right now... Saw Chip Kelly during halftime doing commentary.

Holy hell he looks terrible in a suit.

He needs to get back on a sideline soon so I never have to see that again...

BTN showing 1 OSU vs. 2 TTUN. Hmmm great game. Love listening to how arrogant Hart was.

Sure, I mean they were favored.

Having trouble getting the CBS site to stream. Highlights make it look like the best game on right now.

Wow! Those Beavers are really getting Rammed!


If CSU can knock off the Buffaloes on Friday, they'll be 2-0 vs the Pac 12 before most teams have even played a game.

I think CU's offense will overwhelm the Rams. I'd be a little surprised if CSU wins that one too.

SJSU up 16-0 on USF.  The Bulls have yet to cross mid-field.

This Stanford-Rice game is such a boring mismatch.

btw, earlier I had to double-check to see where they were playing 'cuz it didn't seem likely the Owls could host a game given the current Hurricane Harvey nightmare

Who the hell picked Ball State?

I think that's pretty close to right.  Can't see Toledo not winning the West, particularly since they get WMU at home I believe, although I don't think it would matter.  Ohio-Miami should decide the East, and I think that game is in Athens, and a little more of a toss up.

That's why I had Toledo-Ohio as the MAC Championship Game in my Game by Game picks.

The first stream... I guess we will be starting this on Thursday for week one. It's nice to start a Saturday with it, but with so many of our schools playing before then, well, it is what it is.

Maybe I'll come up with a new thread concept for Saturday morning. The Coffee Shop or some such. It's nice to talk market, food, prep, etc. on a Saturday morning.

If CSU has a solid year, Mike Bobo (HC) is going to have his phone ringing a lot.

I see a LOT of potential/probable big school openings next off season.

Damn, seems like the quote function isn't working again.

Anyway, it seems likely, but really he took over a 10-3 McElwain team, and has gone 7-6 with them twice in his first two years, so I'd be cautious with that hire.

If I click quote, nothing.  If I click reply, then Insert Quote, then back out to the QUick reply, it's there.

Or it seems you can turn off Quick Reply and it takes to to the full reply with the proper quote in it

I right clicked "quote" and opened it in a new tab.

Yeah, that's another workaround
