    This will be the only game I'm watching. I will not watch any of the BCS crapola, and that includes some game on 1/9.

    Playing Clemson is crappy. The only way it's good isif Lsu blows them out which is unlikely with these tigers.

    I actually meant to say 1/7... Guess this past 1/9 still stings, as does that game in BR in early November.

    Who's playing on the 7th? Didn't know there was a game scheduled then, I'm afraid there's a huge suckfest that night that might draw some attention from the game. I won't be watching either.

    True. We are all here stinging from getting stuck in the chicken bowl--but some of those BCS match-ups are beyond awful. I'm more excited to be playing Clemson--though I'd have preferred OU, Nebraska, or Michigan.

    I wonder how many fans Northern Illinois will bring? Will they all ride in one bus?
