Yes, we here at Stanford are very afraid of losing to the Bears.

By the time my response gets out, the question may hae been answered
a dozen times, but what the heck!  I saw the play in question, and it
is definitely not a safety.  When the defensive player makes the catch
and runs out of bounds, it's an interception and a touchback.  It makes
sense if you think about it.  How many times have you seen a defensive
player make a catch in the end zone, get both feet in, and go out of
bounds.  It makes for a highlight-footage-quality defensive play, and
if it were to count as a safety, you wouldn't see too many DB's going
after the interception on the outer edges of the endzone!!! :)

  Washington cannot refuse the Rose Bowl, because the PAC-10 and BIG-10 have
a contract.  If anyone foregoes playing in the Rose Bowl, they will face
suspensions and fines (the team will)...  So, don't blame Washington for lack
of talent, based on their schedule or what bowl game they play in.  
 
  You can have your MNC and sell Miami shirts all you want, because nobody
cares about anyone else's teams.  We will just keep cheering for Washington
and everyone else will keep cheering for their favorite teams and have a 
good time on Saturdays.  This will guarantee a few things:
  1) happy/sad fans
  2) bickering, bitter whiners (WIN OR LOSE).
  3) a massive number of net goobers...

I guess you are disqualifying Koy because he hasn't started, not because
he hasn't played well, right?

I think Dan Marino played well as a freshman at Pitt, although he put up
his best numbers his sophomore and junior years.

What year was Jamelle Hollieway when he took over at OU after Troy

Thank you, Cliff.  From this list I conclude that more conferences
start with the word "Big" than any other word.  I also conclude that
every conference except two have a geographical reference in their
name. 

If someone has the time or inclination, could we have a list
of average ratings for each conference based on polls - both 
computer and AP/Coaches.  Or, how about filtering out the Div 1-AA
games from the above list?

Enough of this.  I'm not trying to stress the validity of the common
opponent thing.  I'm just contending that a common opponent is a
better measuring stick than more complicated scenarios involving
transitivity (although I admit it is definitely not proof of anything).  
Obviously, the only true test is for the teams to play
each other. But, barring that, what do the pollsters do other than
look for objective scales for comparison?

You know, I have to stand up a little here for the LSJUMB.  Truth is,
there are quite a few members of the Stanford Band who are not only
excellent musicians, but have also done a lot with some of the best
high school marching bands in the country.  Some have received awards
for marching band.  If Stanford really wanted to put together a
traditional marching band, we've certainly got the talent to do it.
However, very few people here, certainly not the folks in the LSJUMB,
feel like they _have_ 20-40 hours per week to do things like
disappearing diamonds and straight lines. We'd rather spend our ~8
hours per week to run around on the field, play music _we_ (and our
student body) like, and generally look like we're having lots of fun.
Which is something else that people seem to enjoy.

Funny, even though I am a big Hurrican fan, I have to agree at least one 
point.  THough Miami is in my mind the nation's #1 team.. ( They have played
the teams and won... ), their offense hasn't done much.  And, I think you
hit upon the #1 reason... Gino Toretta.   Gino is a great, great Quarterback
upon until he feels pressure.  He is one of the worst QBs I have seen at 
handling pressure and getting hit.  Notice what happened in his last 
3 games against Arizona/FSU/PSU.  He started out looking good, got hit once
or twice, and then couldn't hit the open receivers if his life depended on
it.  If he could handle the pressure, and make the easy pass, both FSU and
PSU would have been killed (I counted about 4 drives in the PSU game that
he missed wide open, easy targets, and that this stopped the drive)
The funny thing is, is that once he gets hit, his concentration goes way
out of wack and he losses it...

But, thank god for their incredible defense.

But you are right.. This team doesn't look as good as last year.  But then,
Washington looks like they have dropped even further (God do they wish they
still had Emtman).  Both are still top teams, but they are not as 
dominating as they were last year...

Yeh, I was hoping BYU might give them a challege later on AT BYU.  But it looks
like Penn St. will come into Cougar Stadium against a rebuilding Detmer-less

I was wondering what all the Pac10 games will be televised.  I have the
following, but I think I am missing 1 Pac10 game broadcast by SCP in the
SF bay area (sports channel).  Can anyone tell which game I am missing??

ESPN:	Stanford @ UCLA			 7:30pm PT
ABC:	California @ Washington		12:30pm PT
SCP:	(Pac10 game of the week ????)	 3:30pm PT

I think you are making some broad assumptions.  Tenn is GREAT and
Alabama is playing TULANE.  You are also counting out Miss State, never
know how things go.  Even a couple of years ago when Bama was great
and State sucked,  State won the game.
