Temple already jumped Big East football ship, thank God. Somebody tell Bill Cosby they aren't good. Maybe Dr. Huxtable can be a consultant.

Game was being aired on CCIN channel 3 in St. Louis. Game was played @ Carver Arena. MSU won after almost giving back the game.

40-37

Can we repeat what we did to the Muskies last year? I think our success against them, much like everything we do, went under the National radar. I'd rather see us sweep YouDee this year, but I'll take a X Sweep any day of the week.

Totally agree with you, BB. I know that a lot of people used to snicker when the old man got on the horn and started praying, but it is a classy touch for a game that is losing a lot of it.

Fr. Eugene was at the Ole Miss game and was looking very frail. I don't know if he has the power to get up there and let one fly. I mean, even at Notre Dame, they don't pray before kick-off. Maybe we should put in a grotto or something by the Arena. Get yer prayers in before the game. I hate that we're becoming more and more secular.

Southern is in Louisiana and plays Grambling every year in the Bayou Classic in New Orleans. They usually sell the Superdome out every year for the game, which is very impressive for HBCU's.

I'd rather go to BC or GeeTown and have them open it up. Muck Fizzou.

It was in the Lisch-family sponsored Belleville paper. Czech it out.

What would the likelihood of an A-10/PAC-10 shootout be? We have an ACC-Big 10 Shootout, so why not this one? I'd love to see Romar come back here and get embarrassed.

Just think if some of our richer alums would have up-ed the antie and didn't have Woolard, who was a huge penny pincher. We might be a top-25 team now. Oh well.

Right, but since we're done with UNC and Ole Miss, will we look to start a home-and-home with an ACC/SEC team? I'd really like to see us get 'Bama and Wake on the schedule. Perhaps Boston College. I'd love to see us play the Eagles.

Anyone know who we are playing in our NC slate next year?

Boy, I tell ya...when the breaks are beating the boys, you really want to get fired up with the following quote: ***************************************************************** "I told the guys at halftime that they were soft," Soderberg said. "I thought they came out and played the game like they were playing in the YMCA men's league. That was the noon game, and they had another game at 6 o'clock, so let's go out and hoop it up." ***************************************************************** Wow, expect that quote to be put on a plaque and installed in the new locker rooms in the new arena. Kids all over the country will be listening to this speech on their phonograph players, and a movie is in the works. Wow. If it works, it works. But this might be one of the worst halftime speeches ever recorded. Probably beats my Dad's halftime speech when our Father Sweeney Cougars were down by 25 to St. Vincent DePaul --- "you guys are playing like a bunch of *******." We ended up losing by 30. Good stuff. Go Irish

Ahhhhhh...what are they going to do? Shut down my blog? Too bad I own the hosting rights, oh, and I give money to SLU. That's another reason. You know you don't have to read all my posts, skip.
