I was thinking we needed to start a new thread so Skunky didn't have to scroll through the junk to get to the picks.

Interesting article for you 'Noles fans. :D

Yes. Don't go to Kroger the first Wednesday of the month. It's Senior Citizen's Day and those bitties will run you over for a deal.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. - The Gator football team's game against LSU in Baton Rouge on Oct. 6 will be televised in prime time on CBS, the Southeastern Conference announced on Monday. Kickoff for the game is scheduled for 8:28 p.m. ET in Tiger Stadium, with coverage from the venue starting at 8 p.m.

Florida will be making its second appearance on CBS during the 2007 season, as the Orange and Blue notched a 59-20 victory over Eastern Division rival Tennessee in The Swamp on Sept. 15. UF holds a 47-21 (.691) all-time mark on CBS. The Gators (4-0/2-0 SEC) resume action on Saturday night by hosting Auburn (2-2/0-1 SEC) in a nationally-televised matchup at 8 p.m. on ESPN.

I think the teams are evenly matched so home field is worth a few points. :idontno:

Dear Jack,

Since they don't have Jim at Big Wangs, I wanted to see if you wanted to play with me starting at 3PST on Saturday? As much as I love my team, I feel as if we may not be as strong as the past few years. I may need you this weekend.

They wanted him at the end of the 1986 season so that would make it only 20 years. :biggrin:

Although I appreciate the sentiment... You have got to be kidding me:roll: :biggrin:

To keep others here from getting the pleasure in doing it, I will go ahead and announce that it seems there has been impropriety in FSU's office of Academic Support. An internal investigation has been ongoing since March, and they are now sending their findings to the NCAA. The short version is that we had a tutor who was overzealous in spreading knowledge of exam questions.

It was stated that most of the athletes affected are from spring sports, though they took care to mention that no baseball or track players are involved. (My question: then what? Golf? Swimming? Tennis? :idontno: ) Also, no current football players are involved. (The internet rumor mill has identified two team members who had not been cleared to play this year. Current thought is that this is why.)

While other media outlets around the state are happily spewing that hundreds of athletes in all sports are involved, the actual text of the audit is online in the Tallahassee Democrat. I would encourage those who are quick to judge to read all 17 pages. Now it will be wait and see what the NCAA will do.

WHY oh effin WHY does this crap keep happening at my beloved university? :bang: :angry:

Oh, and the office is not managed by the Athletic Department, so there.

I saw it linked from EDSBS yesterday. It smacks of being developed by a rival institution...any guesses?;-)

I might point out something Saban did that really bit him, and just might bite Florida if Tebow gets hurt playing deep into routs.

LSU started 2002 5-1 with a road loss to Virginia Tech as the lone blemish. Game 6 of the season was a 36-7 win over Florida in Le Swamp. For some reason, Saban kept starting QB Matt Mauck in the game way after it was a done deal, and he ended up hurting his foot (I think he broke a bone). Mauck was done for the year, and the team finished the year losing 4 of their last 7 behind the backup QB.

To be fair, I give him a Mulligan for losing to Auburn that year-his mom died on Monday or Tuesday of the game week so he missed all week of practice and basically showed up for the game in Auburn Saturday-and it showed.

Hey Kurt...Check out ESPN Classics tomorrow night. '94 Auburn/ Florida game is on. ;-)

Auburn was on probation under shorty. I was a freshman in high school at a volleyball tournament and we were listening on the radio. First time I'll actualy see the game.

I didn't know Kroger had any deals. :lol: With the Kroger Plus card prices are hiked even higher and then when you use that Kroger Plus card it actually brings the prices down to what they should be anyway. Now it is a deal with their brand of cereal if you can get it 3 for $5.00 and their milk when it is on sale 2 gallons for $5.00, when it is. Hadn't seen that in a while. Their 10 for $10 items sometimes are bargains. But that is about it.
