Well, there's still an SEC team on top of all of 'em! Again! :)

As much as I root for a different team, in a different conference, I'd have to say LSU pretty much has a stranglehold on number one unless they lose. Their strength of schedule is very high, and they are undefeated. Nobody near the top 10 can claim both of those things to the degree LSU can.

On the other hand, this is the year of the upset, so who knows who could surprise us.

The only thing that LSU will lose this year is their coach......to Michigan.

Allow me to point out that I did say the above, with regard to LSU. Won't it be interesting if USF finishes the season as the only undefeated 1A team?

But continuing the upset trend: UCal 28, Oregon 31. Wow!

Oops, make that Oregon State. Even more wow.

Congrats, Charlie Weis!

Ara Parseghian didn't do it. Dan Devine didn't do it. Gerry Faust didn't do it. Lou Holtz didn't do it. Bob Davie didn't do it. Tyrone Willingham didn't do it.

But you did! The refs tried to keep you from your destiny at the end, but you persevered. And yes, we're enjoying it. Thanks!

UM library is a joke. The card catalog online is hard to find. There's no obvious way to search for videos. The librarians at Harlan Hatcher hide in their offices and demand appointments.

I'm going to post because I'm annoyed to see this same posting at the top every time I log on.

This is a new posting.

The mighty have fallen.

Down you go, mighty mighty.

Better luck next time, you worms.
