College football starts today
...as noted by our resident (completely non-illustrious) color commentator Aaron Coyner. What will this year have in store for us? So often (particularly in college sports) it seems like most games are decided before they even begin. And yet so often teams surprise you. Who foresaw Penn State's sudden resurgence? Who predicted Vince Young's stellar performance in a Rose Bowl plagued by USC hype?
As for my alma maters, Rice may win a game, but Magic 8-Balls would likely read, "Outlook not so good." And the Dores? Could this be the year they make a bowl game, even without Jay Cutler? Collazzi seems to think so (based on IM conversations - he hasn't updated his blog in well over a year, a fact mocked beautifully and mercilessly by Banecker in a hopefully soon-to-be-published Slant story... but I digress). I can assure you that, were such to occur, I would be first in line to witness it.
And what do I say about Vanderbilt's chances? Well, frankly, there's only one thing to say:
Song lyric of the day:
"Vanderbilt! Vanderbilt!
Ba-da bum BUM bum BUM
Ba-da bum bum bum Vanderbilt!
Ba-da bum bum bum bum"
- Dynamite, Vanderbilt fight song (alternate lyrics)
