Maybe more today. As of this post, LSU is down 24-14 to Florida. Mid 3rd quarter.

And Illinois beat Wisconsin earlier.

Some gutsy calls by Les Miles. 24-28 FTW.

I took the Bears...

Skins win big! The last time Detroit won in Washington was before anyone in America could name a Japanese car company... the 50s.

Beating Detroit is like beating a highschool football team. It's nothing to be proud of. But I'll forgive you after the Skins fail, yet again, to make it to the Super Bowl. :tonguehands:

Good for Norv Turner. He probably would have been killed if they had lost another game, with all of that talent on both sides of the ball.

Nice win of your Cowboys last night. I keep hoping they'll lose but no go so far. :mad:

Btw how can you live in Virginia and not be a 'Skins fan??

I have a friend from Texas who's a Skins fan and a Red Sox fan. Explain that one to me.
And the chickens. Those damn chickens.

I guess I shouldn't criticize. I'm a skins fan who lives in Philly. That's enough to get one murdered.

well to be fair, in philly walking down a street is enough to get one murdered...

Eeek, I get nearly killed at school whenever I wear any Dallas clothes.

I think it all started when I was about 5 and my family was watching a Cowboy-Redskin game. My family are huge Redskins fans, so I guess I decided to root for the opposite team. No real explanation, but I've loved Dallas teams since.


But that game was amazing last night. I have no idea how Buffalo didn't win it, since we basically gave it away. After a perfect onside kick, good time management, and then two cold-blooded kicks from our rookie kicker, I was THRILLED.

Then, I realized we played New England next week. Ick.

Well we're going to find out what Dallas is really made of in a hurry. Given what I've seen so far, though, they seem to be the team to beat in the NFC.

So much for a lack of excitement, #1 LSU just fell to #17 Kentucky 37-43 in triple overtime.
