I'll be therre.

[London 'Cat]

I'll be there but likely right before kickoff. I have a charity golf outing that day for the Kiwanis club that I am treasurer for. It should end by noon but I have to drive 75 minutes to get to campus. Cutting it very close.

Here's a recent piece on the Eagles from one of their fan sites:

Season ticket holder since 1998, This is similar to the basketball season last year----no enthusiasm & no real expectations. I rarely miss a game & looking forward to the season starting. However, losing the last 5 games at the end of last year, seldom winning in November, losing halftime leads & not making adjustments after halftime, what's to look forward to??????

I am also a member. Love the songs of Kiwanis.

Thank you portal and NIL $$ for ruining the best sport in the USA.

I (don't) hear ZERO talk about UC FB so far.

I used to enjoy any college football or basketball game.Now it almost like the NFL,NBA and MLB... you couldn't pay me to watch a game not involving the home team. Unfortunately, I think people watch all of these games just to follow their bets.Gambling has got to be the reason for widespread viewership. Pretty soon it will all be like wrestling!

I feel like Butch Cassidy (from the movie, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) when the seasons come around - "Who are those guys?"

Except those pro leagues don’t have unlimited free agency every year. College athletics right now is the worst of them all, and not worth watching unless you’re a gambler.

I was attempting to find something on BC for this week and ESPN's site is absolutely devoid of info on them except for this nugget. Their star sophomore TE Chudzinski is out for the season. I did read an article from Adam Rittenberg at ESPN that stated that BC's Bill O'Brien is on the hot seat. Not on the that same list ? Scott Satterfield.

[bearcatjd]

I can't believe we are only favored(last I read) by 7.5 points. They won only 2 games last year.

[bearcatbret]

This is straight from BC but it hardly says anything other than they are excited to finally have the season start.
