So will Corso be a Bison or a Hornet?

based on Corso's recent habit of bringing live animals on set lately, I now have a mental image of either a buffalo charging right at their desk, or a mad nest of hornets scattering the crowd/signs behind them.

They knew that with OU idle, no one would be watching anyway.

Horrible games this week

Agreed. The only game that intrigues me is KSU/Texas. I want to see the mood of the crowd and how the Horns respond to the realization that they are far from being "back."

No kidding, bad week for a bye.

There really is only one or two games worth watching (but that won't stop me from watching most of the other ones).


I like that Gameday is in Fargo this week. At least it's not at another SEC game.

I sincerely hope for a freak early blizzard in Fargo. Maybe it will freeze Herbie's mouth shut. LOL!

besides, the purgatory with domer, anyway!

It doesn't matter where GD is. 80% of the show will be about aggies and bama from a week ago. 10% the rest of the SEC. 10% Bo Pelini.

I'm surprised the UND and NDSt haven't moved up to FBS. I guess they like beating up on the smaller FCS schools.

There have not been a lot of FCS to FBS success stories lately, from what I've seen in ESPN's weekly Bottom 10 :(

Gameday can never top the best line from Fargo.

Why not Stanford vs ASU?

Could the lack of GD be considered a reward? Sigh, now those refs will never improve...

The structural engineer on one of our projects (new Minot Airport Terminal building) is an alum and lives in Moorhead and is all excited about it. She went to the K-State game and the championship game the past two years. It is the big story up there right now. I like the fact they are going to some place other than the normal places.

I live in Atlanta. A couple of SEC *********s here at work are already complaining about GD going somewhere other than an SEC school.

So will Corso be a Bison or a Hornet? It's mildly disturbing that you know the nicknames. :)

Too costly. Teams like App State and Georgia State can do it because travel within the region makes scheduling (for the payday) feasible. NDSU and UND would spend far more money because they aren't close enough to schedule games within the region. Then there's the conference issue. Who would they align with? I guess they could go independent, but that probably wouldn't work well.

I was going to DVR it Saturday night but Charter Cable here in MO is charging "$141.82 plus fees/taxes" PPV, whatever the hell that level of insanity is supposed to net them. I've got it set to record Sunday when it replays free. I hope it's as expected, a real laugh riot for anyone not wearing burnt orange.
