I got to watch my Huskers play their first road test of the season at Washington and I was impressed! The Huskers reminded some of us diehard fans of the glory days today with a rout of the Huskies 56-21. Even better to see was the crazy sea of RED at Husky Stadium at Seattle...WOW. That was a reminder of how GREAT Big Red nation is! That's amazing to almost make that a neutral field. The Huskers showed their appreciation by dominating the Huskies and making a statement that the Huskers have some offense to go with their great D now. FUN TO WATCH.
Apparently Reggie Bush made the decision to turn in his Heisman trophy from his amazing 2005 season, with the reasoning being that it seemed like the right thing to do. I'll just say, all the controversy aside of him accepting whatever inappropriate gifts at the time, there's no doubt in anyone's mind who was the most talented player in college football that season. Reggie Bush is one of the most talented college football players I've ever seen. He absolutely deserved the Heisman, because he was the best player on the field during the season and that's what the Heisman is. Still, it was good to see him trying to do what he felt was the classy thing.
It's almost time for one of my Must-See football games of the season. This Sunday night, it's Manning Bowl II with Peyton Manning's Colts taking on Eli's Giants. The first meeting was great and I expect more of the same from this one. Good choice for a sunday night game!

Football season
It's the most wonderful TIIIIIIIIME of the year...
YES!!!! Football season is back. As Al Michaels put it tonight before the NFL opener, it's the best reality TV there is!! NICE. The only reality TV I'll watch for that matter. Only problem with the game tonight is that it darn near put me to sleep, just like all other reality TV! Wow. It's like nothing really happened in this HUGELY anticipated NFC Championship rematch. I mean, that IS what that was supposed to be, right? Yikes. It's like neither team REALLY wanted to win it, the Saints just happened to score enough to win 14-9. The Vikings did absolutely nothing after the first half, except giving us a clinic on punting. What a shame. I mean, that's what you come up with when you get a second shot at the team that crushed your dream of a super bowl back in January? A disappointing game to say the least. The Vikings need to wake up quickly and remember that the games count now, preseason is over.
Meanwhile, the college football season got rolling last weekend and it was pretty fun. Boise State proved again that they can play with the big schools as they came from behind to beat Virginia Tech monday night. I still have the feeling that the Broncos will again be left out of the championship game if teams like Texas, Alabama, Ohio State, or Florida go undefeated. There's such a big weekend for college football coming up this weekend with exciting matchups like Oklahoma vs Florida St. and Ohio State vs Miami and Penn State vs Alabama...lots of good stuff and a time where I'll have to make tough choices on what to watch. Sometimes it hurts when you don't have DVR or Tivo. Still, it's a FUN problem to have! :)
