A little closer than most expected but from what I've heard Ball

UNC looked fairly solid but the Wake QB's seemed to have alot of time
to throw which has to be a concern. I think Mike Thomas will emerge
as the UNC starter before too long. He seems to have the edge over
Jason Stanecik in most area's especially arm strenth. He really zipped
the ball the few times he passed and he had a nice 29 yard run for
a TD. UNC will probably continue the two QB system untill there first
big test vs N.C. State in a couple weeks.

Faulk ran for 158 yards at Miami last year, outgaining 8 other Miami
opponents single-handedly. In his last 5 games Faulk ran ~150 vs
BYU, 158 vs Miami, 100 odd vs Tulsa, 220 vs USC, 299 vs BYU. 
Yes, he *is* that good. Of that bunch of teams, Miami and USC are
no slouches against the run, especially Miami.

Faulk had 79 yds on 11 carries against UCLA last year. Not bad for a
freshman playing his 4th game of the season.

You want a simple answer?  How about the fact that school doesn't start
here for another until the end of September (quarter system).  The only
folks around are we poor grad students and other people who have jobs and
net.access.  Prepare to welcome a fresh crop of Washington goobers about
the 28th of September.

I have to agree that it isn't the world's most challenging schedule, still
we do play three ranked teams (all at home, of course :) ).  The most 
difficult away game will probably be at WSU to end the season.  Not much
challenge, I admit. . . .  still anything is possible.

Today's Purdue Excrement says the cost of installing both goal
posts in 1990 was $7000 and that the goal post will not have to
be replaced, so I assume the cost will be significantly less.

More interesting is the quote from interim athletic director
John Hicks:  "Fred Ford, executive vice president and treasurer,
is known to be somewhat frugal, but he said 'They can take down
the goal posts every week as long as we win.'"  

What do you say Purdue students?  Shall we do it????

So much for *that* dynasty...

Holy smokes!  I had a funny feeling about this one all week, and I
could even have believed a Boilermaker victory, but nowhere in my
nightmares could I have imagined such a trouncing.  The bad news
for Cal fans is obvious; here's some (relatively) good:

o Cal got a major taste of humble pie that ought to last all
  season

o It came early in the year and not against a Pac-10 opponent

o The game wasn't televised, so they ought to be able to regain
  some ranking in a few weeks

o Gilbertson can use this as an "I told you so" on the team --
  he'd been cautioning them all week against complacency.

Hats off to Purdue, who is obviously much imporved from last season --
they took it to the Bears big time.  And while I don't really believe
that the Boilermakers are really 27 points better than the Bears, the
game shows some glaring weaknesses on a Cal team should they wish to
be taken seriously across the nation.

The real crossroads will be the game against Kansas.  If the Bears
come out breathing fire like they have something to prove, and stuff
the Jayhawks bigtime, the rest of the season ought to be OK.  A 
repeat performance, however, will put Cal's football program back
five years.  And we all remember what *that* was like.

it is a pipe dream, but what would happen if both the Bruins and
Huskies go undefeated? Who would get the Rose Bowl bid.  Would it go to

You forgot one small thing - Cincinnati would get their ass kicked on a regular
basis in the Big 10. If the criteria you list are the only ones that are 
important, there are a couple dozen institutions in the midwest that would
qualify. The Big 10 is trying to avoid another Northwestern.

Yea I saw the game tape delay on Prime Cable Network. 80% of the passes were
short stuff but that's ok. Look at the 49ers. Most of their stuff is short.
Grant did look like he had a decent arm. In fact he did seem to "arm" throw
it a lot.

Well, against Washington they are gonna need to open up the running game with
the pass. I'm looking forward to the game - when you are the underdog there is
not as much pressure on you. But Skip is right - Nebraska NEEDS this game. Not
only for their national reputation but for their own confidence.

I still can't bring myself to actually predict a Nebraska win. However I do
think this will be a really good game.

Bruce was so upset about the Big 8 crew's calls that he refused to
answer any questions at his press conference.  I didn't see much of the
game; can anyone elaborate on the officiating?

Stewart's 4 TDs also tied a school record, and his 430 yards of total
offense broke Bobby Anderson's record set in 1968.

Besides Ivlow's 152 rushing yards (the most against CU since Nebraska's
Ken Clark in 1988) for a school record 19.0 yard average, CSU was led by
linebacker Brian Schneider, who matched his career-high with 15 tackles
and his '91 total of 2 sacks.

Three-fourths of Ivlow's yardage came on two trap plays that went for 50
and 67 yards, which were attributed by CU defenders to a missed call by
a lineman, then getting caught by a quick count while changing the
defense.

Freshman: DBs Dalton Simmons and Steve Rosga and WRs Rae Carruth and
Donnell Leomiti played and won't get redshirts this year.  Koy Detmer
did not play, although junior Duke Tobin did.

Injuries: CSU apparently came out unhurt.  For CU, LB Chad Brown played
with his broken hand and back spasms that started before the game, FS
Chris Hudson bruised his thigh, and WR Michael Westbrook had his calf
cramp up; all were listed on Sunday as day-to-day.  SS Dwayne Davis
should be back after breaking his arm in August, plus CB Deon Figures
from his one-game suspension.

I thought Hall might make a good wishbone quarterback, but I wasn't
impressed with his passing (drops or not).  He reminded me of Holieway
(passing-wise).

The officiating (particularly in the first half) was poor.  That interference
call was bogus.  The penalty on the punt that was fair-caught was bogus.
They missed a pass interference call against Tech.  They did give one back
to OU on a bad call against Tech, but I forgot what it was.
