Colorado St. 40 Fresno St. 35
Gartrell Johnson runs for 285 yards and CSU gets their biggest win in like 10 years. Yes, it's only the New Mexico bowl (a bowl so bad they play it before Christmas), but in addition to seeing a great performance, it was also a really entertaining game. The entire second half was an edge of your seat kind of game.
As a CSU fan, I can only hope that this means the Rams will soon be back to the glory days of Lubick's mid-90s teams. It would be nice to competitive again. Especially now that Utah is a national power.

It's Almost, Almost Football Season
Yahoo's college sports affiliate, rivals.com, has been counting down the college teams all month. They started at 120 and today they did #6 (Florida, if you're interested). By my count that leaves Southern Cal, Oklahoma, Missouri, Georgia, and Ohio State as your top 5 teams.
OSU plays at USC sometime in September so that will pretty much set the season for me. Do we get thrown to the wolves in another BCS fiasco, or do we gear up for the Big Ten season and play for the Rose Bowl? (I'll fess up to the drubbing we got against Florida in the Fiesta Bowl, but I still say LSU benefited from getting to play what was essentially a home game, blecch). So all things being equal, and knowing how badly we play against the SEC, I'll take my chances in the Rose Bowl.
Also, it's going to be another long year in Fort Collins as Colorado State rebuilds under their new coach, Steve Fairchild. Rivals pegs them as the 96th best team in College football (two spots down from where they finished last year) and warns that the Rams have no quarterback (we've seen that before - as I recall, Bradley Van Pelt's first year was the season of rotating quarterback ineptitude).

College Football Begins
Well it was sort of an interesting kick-off to the college football season.
My Colorado State Rams dominated their instate rivals only to be undone by special teams and a poorly played overtime. Alas.
Ohio State got off to a decent start in this, their rebuilding year, against an obviously overmatched Youngstown State team.
Michigan lost to Appalachian State as everyone knows, and nothing makes me happier than to see the Wolverines hoisted on their own petard. It was a well guarded secret that App State were defending national champions in I-AA until the upset was in the works. That's a 3 game losing streak dating back to the so-called "Game of the Century" last November.
Notre Dame is just a bad football team. Goes to show how talented Brady Quinn was the last two years just to get the program back to OK. But right now they stink. It will be a very long year for the Irish.
