2005 NCAA football week 1
College football season started with a bang before I even thought about it.
Nebraska won the first game as expected. If they had lost to Maine, it would have been a really really bad. Wake Forest comes to Lincoln next week. It should be an easy game.
Texas won big time against Loiusiana at Lafayette by the score of 60:3. Again as expected. They are ranked #2. Hope they survive their meeting with Ohio State next week.
Big upsets of the week: Oklahoma lost to TCU. Yay! Maybe they lost all the goo players in the graduating class last year. Pittsburgh lost to Notre Dame. Argh! As I type this, looks like unranked Georgia Tech is going to beat #17 Auburn.
I am so happy that football season has begun. Now, 4 months will go so fast with busy weekends.

looking at the way OU lost to USC last year, you might be right in calling them goo players :) - i wont be surprised if this is the year oklahoma gets hammered big time, including by your huskers ...
ofcourse, of all teams, pitt had to get their ass kicked by ND!! how badly can a season start :)

and A&M lost tooo...
TAMU lost! Damn! by a measly field goal..but their defense needs to shore up. But on the bright side, Yellow Jackets totally rocked...

Posted by: Aditya at September 6, 2005 09:03 AMAditya: I feel sorry for Pitt's loss. But then, I feel sorry for any team that loses to ND. :)
PF: I agree with Aditya. It is going to be tough to get past Ohio State. Hope the 'Horns will be able to justify their #2 ranking.
Patrix: Welcome to the life of disppointment in Big12. Supporting a Big12 football team is almost like supporting Indian Cricket team. You have enough practice with that, so, this shouldn't be too bad. :)
