I can tell you this weekend was a pretty cool weekend. Let’s hit the highlights and low lights.

-Deleware State: I know that you can never predict what those wild hornets of Delaware St. are going to do, but today I believe they formally set a record of 2 losses in one day.  The second-tier program got paid $550,000 to forfeit a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference game against North Carolina A&T to give Michigan a tuneup. Since they forfeit their game against A&T and lost against Michigan today by 57 points, I would most definately call that a historical moment in college football.

-Texas/OU or Notre Dame/USC - Today’s story lines billed these two games to be absolutely amazing. Texas/OU was defensively sloppy as well and both starting quarterbacks were knocked out early (one literally and one figuratively). USC/Notre Dame came down to a last play, which would normally be a great thing, but didn’t the media want USC to be beaten by Notre Dame so that Clausen could be vaulted to a Heisman candidate? Ah, I love it!

-CBS vs. NBC - The S.E.C.  is almost exclusively on CBS, where as NBC has Notre Dame. Considering that the #1 and #2  teams in the nation are from that conference, I’d say that CBS was the better conference.

-Arkansas vs.  Florida-This was by far one of the best games of the day. I enjoyed every minute of it. Arkansas or Florida could of won that, but it just came down to time and then a field goal. Great game!

-A&M loses to Kansas St. – I’m sure the games not even over as I type this but the score is 59-0 right now with 10:00 min left in third quarter.  I sat through 77-0 vs. OU in 2003 and now I’m having flashbacks.
