Wish I was there, with all of you on Saturday. Go Canes! Wear ORANGE, the color of the day. I am happy that it is an ORANGE day. We usually win when they wear ORANGE!

What’s the line on the game? Is it still 4 1/2 pts for Texas?

About 90% full of capacity at Hard Rock stadium is just under 58.5K total attendance. So as much as I hate to simplify it to the lowest common ticket denominator, I really feel if they draw more than 58.5K they win, and if they draw less, TAMU will have a great chance to win.

Something like this was bound to happen. There's too much money on the table now

Five arrests were made in Florida Wednesday and more are coming relating to falsifying documents in order to allow high school football players to skirt boundary rules to choose which school to attend and compete for.

TCPalm in Port St. Lucie, Florida reported five parents were arrested for charges related to falsifying official documents. Arrest warrants have been filed for three more parents.

Well, thank goodness this game is on ABC, otherwisw The Herb wouldn't get to see it, as Spectrum and Disney have decided to eliminate all the sports channels until they decide who has whom over a dam barrel.

All I got to say about tomorrows game is we better not fold like a tent or this will set us back even farther with recruits, since there are going to be upwards of 35 in the stands.

Game Day. It's time to defeat the forces of Sauron. To win for all that is good and South Floridian.
And if anything to attract Jeremiah Smith's attention. The kid had over 300 yards receiving last night against Bergen Catholic of NJ. If we could flip him ...
