There were three interceptions thrown by Grbac that influenced the
outcome a tad.

Who was he throwing it to on that last one?  The gopher from
Caddyshack?  I disagree with the announcers; he wasn't hit until after
he had released (or late enough that it didn't affect the path of the
ball much).

Actually the Bearcats only lead was 7-0 in the 1st half, following that
it was 7-7, 14-7, 17-7, 17-14, 24-14, and Cinci scored with 1:03 left
to bring the final score 24-20.

Also, PSU is down to 1 QB, Sacca went down with an injury in the 1st half
leaving only true Freshman Wally Richardson healthy.

Thanks for clearing that up, Goob.  So, we can all look forward to the
Purdue-ND game this year.  I hear Jesus is possessing Mirer, and God
is going to inhabit Zgonina.  Should be quite a matchup!

My prediction: God gets bored after the first quarter (score 7-7), and
switches over to watching Brent Musberger fumble through a broadcast.
He then gives the NBC announcers hotfeet, and spends a few idle
moments tormenting John Cooper.  Meanwhile, Jesus is making a serious
run for the Heisman, passing for 300 yards and 4 touchdowns.  God
stops on his way back to the golden dome to help Marshall Faulk and
hinder Russell White, but doesn't arrive until there are only 2:00
left in the fourth quarter, and Purdue is behind by 24.  He scores a
quick touchdown to cut the lead to 17, but Jesus switches from Mirer
to Bettis and runs out the clock.  Final score:  Jesus 34, God 17.

	An article in this past Sunday's Columbus Dispatch has Penn State
confirming a Big Ten(11) expansion to 12 teams.

	In their opinion (actually Penn State's AD), the teams most likely were
Syracuse, Rutgers, Pitt, Notre Dame, Nebraska, and Missouri.  Apparently the
decision is to keep the conference geographically linked, so discount Texas for
now.
	I think the Big Ten would like to secure some east coast markets, so
look for Syracuse to be the surprise winner in the Big Ten expansion. 
Althought I wouldn't count out either ND or Nebraska for the 12th team, or to
be included in a 14 team conference.  I don't see Pitt, Rutgers, or Missouri
being asked unless there are an odd number of teams due to a rejection from
someone like ND or Nebraska.
	The Big Ten(11) will wait to see how the SEC division format goes
before making any announcements.

Normally I have two standard reponses to this.

  1)  If Notre Dame comes to the Cotton Bowl, that means that Notre Dame
      has a weak team that year.

and
  2)  Texas A&M went on probation following that game after getting
      caught cheating trying to beat Notre Dame.

But since you put the smiley there, I won't use those two responses.
:) :) :)




All else aside, there is nothing I would want to see more than for
an undefeated Notre Dame to face undefeated Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl
this year.

I have an interesting question for you trivia people out there.  How many Big 10
teams have won the Rose Bowl and what years did they do it?  There is a trivia
question about it that a group of us have been debating.  We thought there were
only three, but then we couldn't decide on who.  In other words, we are really
messed up and would appreciate it if someone straightened us out.  Thanks in
advance!!!!!

BTW, this is probably a pretty good thing for the net, and might even be a FAQ,
but unfortunately I now put classes as a higher priority than football, <I know,

the net on time, and would appreciate some email.  Again, thanks in advance!!!

Lou Holtz definetly screwed this one up.  Two years ago, in a very similar
situation against Penn State, he let Mirer go for the win.  Darren Perry (now of
Pittsburgh) picked off Mirer and Craig Fayak won it for PSU with a medium range
field goal.  Some would say that this shows that Holtz made the right decision,
because Mirer has screwed it up before.  But later this year, Holtz might need
Mirer to lead them to a win with less than 2 minutes on the clock.  When Mirer
has already made mistakes in that situation, and his coach goes and tells him
that 2 years later he still remembers what happened and is afraid that it will
happen again, its just got to do great things for Mirer's confidence.  Ideally,
sometime later this season Holtz will lose a game he could have won because Mirer
can't move them downfield at the end of the game.

In a recent "Looney" article, he really ripped on BYU and on how much/why

Well, after posting my preview of the past week's SWC games, I feel 
responsible for posting a summary. Unfortunately, I am so disgusted
in the results, I am incapable or posting a calm, objective review
at this time. 

I don't know for sure what the problem is at this point. Probation is
NOT a problem any more--hasn't been for a few years now. Recruiting
is not a problem any more--the SWC schools has supposedy recruited
good athletes for several years now. Coaching? Maybe at some of the
schools....

Anyway, except for A&M, the conference sucked it up big time
(actually, I never caught the TCU-UNM score snce I'm in Virginia this
week, but I have a feeling TCU lost, too--is that right?). I predicted
the Texas Tech loss to OU and the Rice loss to Air Force, but I really
thought, in the other games, which were supposed to be close (UT-MSU,
UH-Tulsa, Baylor-La Tech, SMU-Tulane), the SWC teams could pull out
the close wins. Instead, Texas got drilled, and the others choked.
Thankfully, Arkansas is in the SEC now, so their loss to the Citadel
doesn't embarass the conference any further.

It will be dificult for me to post a preview for the coming week
(other than just say: "A&M wins, everybody else loses"--no smiley)
since I'll be back east all week, but Goober has offered his help
(is the offer still valid?), so we'll get something out. My 
record for the past week was 3 right (A&M win, Tech and Rice lose)
and 4 wrong (UT loses big; UH, BU, SMU lose close ones), with
the the TCU result being unknown to me. Maybe I'll have better
luck making predictions from OUT of the SWC land...
