We made it!!!

For obvious (read: work) reasons, we despise the end of summer. But the best part of fall (along with the autumn weather) is the return of college football. The season starts tonight, with eight games being played, six of which will be televised.

6:00 North Carolina @ South Carolina We love following SC because we love (love!) The Head Ball Coach. We love his visor. We love his shades. We love when he goes all "I don't give a sheet!" and takes his shirt off during practice on hot days. We love when he speaks into a microphone. And we love the fact he eats at ... wait for it ... Arby's. (If you don't know what we're referring to, you're NOT a college football fan.) And we love that The Cocks always seem to play in the first game of the year every August.  SC 27 UNC 16

7:00 Tulsa @ Bowling Green Reason we'll flip here during commercials: A starting D-lineman for BG went to our high school. Tulsa is getting 4 points on the road. Kids from Oklahoma are tough -- tough enough to cover. BG 35 Tulsa 31

8:00 Utah State @ Utah Reason we'll miss skip this game: It's on Fox Sports 1.  That means having to endure "analyst" (giggle) Eddie George on the pre-game show. Fox's college football coverage will NEVER be taken seriously as long as they employ stiffs like him. Reason you'll skip this game: You probably still haven't figured out what channel FS1 is on your box.  The Utes will Win One for Majerus. Utah 42 Utah State 38

9:15 Ole Miss @ Vanderbilt This will actually be the best game of the night. Ole Miss needs an opening night W before it embarks on a killer schedule. Vandy needs to prove it's a top 25 team by closing the deal at home. Can't wait for this one. Vandy 21 Ole Miss 20

10:30 Rutgers @ Fresno State The Bulldogs are 10 point favorites. Hmm... Rutgers 24 The Fighting Chris Herrens 21

11:00 Southern Cal @ Hawaii We know one thing: @billpear will be watching, cold one in hand. The Sons of Lane Kiffin need to show some stones/maturity and pound the crap out of Hawaii.  USC 49 Hawaii 24

Cocks no fun w/out Garcia slinging the rock and getting arrested every week.
