I don't expect a whole lot out of NU this year. This year's recruiting class will help a lot, but I think they're a year or two away from really having things back on track. But having the first five games at home helps. Hopefully they can use that to start off hot and build some momentum. I'll be at the season opener and hopefully another game or two along the way. But my wife is 2/12 months pregnant :) , so our level of disposable income will be severely limited for the foreseeable future. :(

It pains me to admit this, NYCPort, but I think your Buffs are still the team to beat in the Big 12 North (although the North may still be as bad as last season). A bunch of returning starters and a favorable schedule (all the tough conference games except @Texas at home) should make for a decent year. Personally, I'm just hoping that someone in the North can step up and at least make the Big 12 Championship competitive.

CUParrot, Alan11, et al college gridiron fans - I'm back - :P

Took a long hiatus and am now refreshed and ready to head back to a stadium somewhere.

Will open the season Thursday night of Labor Day weekend with the Itsy Bitsy Spiders of Richmond and then head to Raleigh to see the Hokies open with a tough NC State team on Sunday night.

As we did last year, I'd love to hear everyone's schedules, who needs tickets, who's selling tickets and, or course, where the BEST tailgates will be!

Later taters - Go Spiders! - Go Hokies!
Welcome back, we will have to tailgate together during one of the tech games this year, i think last year we had bad timing in that the games you were at i wasn't and vice versa.

My FIL hasn't gotten his ticket assignment yet from Tech's office so we haven't a clue where we are setting yet. My SIL is a freshman at Tech so we are almost certain to go every home game.

Our plan right now is all the home games, and the NC State and Duke road games (If we get tix). One or two Tennessee games. We have ACC Championship tickets for Jacksonville if we want them I just need to let my ticket guy know.

Tech is strong and Tenn is strong so there is a good possibility they could meet in the Rose at the end of the year. All of the Hokies tough games are at home this year and they returned just about everyone, same goes for the Vols. We are already a house divided with Vol and Hokie stuff I couldn't imagine them playing each other for the National Title.

Clemson's got a TOUGH schedule this year, so it will be interesting! Some awesome home games, including Texas A&M, Miami, Boston College and FSU.

9/3--Texas A&M--8 p.m.
9/10--at Maryland--noon, ESPN
9/17--Miami--3:30 pr 7:45 p.m.
9/24--Boston College
10/1--at Wake Forest
10/13--at NC State (ESPN Thurs. night game)
10/22--Temple
10/29--at GA Tech
11/5--Duke (need to seek revenge against the Dukies)
11/12--FSU
11/19--at S. Carolina (please, no brawling this year...)

As always, I'll be at all the home games (provided I can find a babysitter for all the ones we don't plan to bring Junior to).

Clemson is being picked as the "dark horse" in the ACC this year: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2005/w ... b.mailbag/

We'll see.

GO TIGERS!!!!!

And the Winner IS 19 yes 19 posts afore CU jumped IN

The Falcons are typically a good road team. Final score about 63-61, fun game.
