College football week 5 wrap up

Another great week of college football, man this time of year is great, here are just a few things on it.

-MSU-Michigan was a great game, MSU came out quick and ready to play, which you knew they had to, but then tried their best to give it away. Tate and Michigan made some plays, but needed to make one more. Great OT rivalry football game

-USC showed us that they are still good, and Cal was way overrated.

- LSU is a little overrated but still very good. UGA played them tough. Big game this week with Fl at LSU, at night... could be a very good one.. Fl watch out

- da U responded nicely with a good win over OK. Sure they are still playing without Bradford but they are still good, and that is a great win. To play free show, uga tech, va tech and OK the first 4 games of the year and survive it 3-1 is very good. They are not all the way back to being where they were, but they are much better. I think they could still win the ACC, Va Tech is also good, but on a neutral site in good weather, I think it would be a very good game.

-CMU had a nice win at Buffalo. 20-13 had some people upset, but a win is a win, especially a road conference game. So I was happy. Now EMU is up for homecoming. Looking forward to another great week. I'm right, you're wrong.

I have to wait more

So after loosing the first two games of the series vs the White Sox and the Twins wining against KC, both teams won today setting up a one game play in game at the dome on Tuesday at 5. It will be the last regular season game at the metro dome and I am hoping it will be the last game ever. It is going to be tough, the Tigers normally don't play well there anyway, and that place will be rocking. I know have to wait two days to find out if the Tigers will win the central, and go to the playoffs, or will their season be done. 162 games not enough to settle it, lets play one more. What more could you want as a sports fan, sure it would have been better for the team and their chances against the Yanks to win on Thursday against the Twins, clinch and then set the rotation and not have to worry about it. But you got to love drama. I just hope they can find a way. Come on Tigers, you can do it. I'm right, you're wrong.

Really Jim

The Tigers had a chance to clinch the Central today and what did Jim Leyland do, rest Poly, and change the lineup a lot, a lineup that scored 7 runs the day before. But the day game after the night game, so we rest guys. How about clinching today and then resting them for the entire weekend, setting your rotation and bullpen, and not having to worry about it. So they get beat 8-3 today and the lead is 2 with 3 to play. They still are ok, but why worry about it, just clinch and move on. But now I have to worry about it this weekend, when all I wanted to do this weekend was watch football, hockey and relax. Now I have to worry about the Tigers too, Thanks Jim. I'm right, you're wrong.

One more to go

After a big 7-2 win last night the Tigers are now up 3 with 4 games left. They have one more against the Twins today and the way I look at it, it is the biggest game of the year. A win today would mean the tigers would clinch the central and be able to set up their rotation on the proper days rest. They wouldn't even have to worry about the weekend series with the White Sox, and that would be great. I am pumped and ready to go, and will be listening to the game as much as I can, at work.

NHL season also starts today, the Wings play tomorrow, so that should be fun. I am really going to try to follow Hockey more this year, and not just wait for the playoffs, since they are so sweet. I'm right, you're wrong

Two to go

So yesterday's double header was great baseball. Two great one run games, and each team won one, so the lead is two games, with 5 to go, with 2 more against the Twins. The Tigers can still win those two games and clinch the Central, or it could be tied, or it still could be at 2 games. These are the two biggest games of the year, and pitching for the Tigers, Eddie B, and Nate R, yeah. I feel great, it's like a big hug. I still have faith, and I think they are going to do it. You got to believe

So we wait

Last night the Tigers-Twins game was rained out, so now there will be a day/night doubleheader today, starting at noon. It is a big big day, by the time we all go to bed tonight the Tigers could either be 4 games up with 4 to play, and one game away from clinching the division, or they could be in a tie for the division.. of course both teams could win one, and it would still be at two. I am really looking forward to it. Fall as arrived weather wise in Michigan as it is windy, rainy, and a high in the 50's, great fall weather, I love this time of year. I am quickly trying to get some work done before the game starts in over a hour. I will miss the start of it, but should be able to watch by 1pm or so.

In NFL week 3 we had a few surprises to say the least

-Pit lost to the Bengals, making the Bengals one crazy play away from being 3-0 and the Steelers having the same record has the Lions, who finally won, too bad no one saw it within 75 miles because of the blackout, 1-2.

-The Bucks are bad, I think the panthers may also be.

-I was wrong about the:
jets, Bengals, 49ers, Jags, and Texans. The 1st 3 are much better then I thought, and the last two are not as good as I thought they would be.

- The Skins suck

-I still think the titans will be fine.

I'm right, you're wrong

What more could you want

7 games to play, the Tigers have a two game lead in the Central over the Twins, and a 4 games series against the Twins starting today at home. All 7 of their games are at home. What more could you ask for, as a sports fan. Should be a fun and exciting week. They need to hold on, if they lose this at home, they will deserve not making the playoffs, have to come through. Plus the rotation steps up nicely for those last 3 games against the White Sox if they are needed. I am hoping the Tigers just win the first 3 against the Twins and clinch, but that will be very hard to do, and isn't very likely.

A crazy weekend in college football as well. My Chippewas continued to roll, in their first conference game they beat Akron 48-21. They are really playing well right now, and looking good at 3-1.

MSU sets up a must win for them on Saturday at home vs undefeated Michigan, who already has more wins then all of last year. Should be a good game. This is a tough time to get MSU cause they will be jacked for this game, but Michigan is good, but MSU also isn't that bad of a team, I would say they are by far the best one win team in the nation. It is also Michigan's first road game of the year, MSU needs it more, I am saying they are going to win 28-24

Cal gets killed by Oregon, showing how overrated they were

Ole Miss got beat by South Car, showing how overrated they were

PSU lost again to Iowa, this time at home, now Iowa is ranked, but have had some tough games early one, barley beating Northern Iowa in week one if you remember. PSU isn't bad, but they were overrated at 5, they should be in the 10-15 range when it is all said and done.

Free Shoe losses to South FL, man, FSU just can't get anything going this year.

da U losses, bad, to Va Tech on the road. Va Tech is a good football team no question, and so is da U, they are not all the way back yet, but they are getting there, it was only a matter of time before playing FSU, UGA Tech, VA Tech and OK to start the year caught up to them. We will see what they have for the Sooners, since that game will not be easy.

Tebow got JACKED UP.. another example of why with a lead of 3 scores, or more, in the second half, in college football, you should have your stars out.

I like how after 4 weeks in college football, the national champ is really between FL, Texas, and Bama. We will talk about the NFL later. I'm right, you're wrong.
