By now we’re well into the unfolding majesty of the first full Saturday of college football season. The afternoon appetizers before the Bulldogs take the field this evening at 6:00 aren’t terribly compelling, at least on paper. But there should be some pretty solid football played, and you get to watch it live and in color. God bless America.
The most interesting matchup of the mid-afternoon is probably the #10 Washington/Boise State tilt at 3:30 on ABC. There’s also Auburn hosting 1-0 UMass (man, that sounds weird) on ESPN. I expect the Plainsmen to win that one, even if by hiring Hugh Freeze they’ve already lost.
