Everybody's starving for football right now, not many games tonight, and scheduling a Th night game first game of season gives you two day advantage for the next game.

I see 7 different games I can watch tonight. I'm not sure why a MWC matchup of some sort would be all that appealing tonight.

I'm looking forward to the OSU - Stanford game tonight. I love PAC 10 ball. I'm a closet Arizona State fan. For some reason I've always cheered for the Sun Devils, and I have no connection to them whatsoever.

ASU's practice dome just blew away.

I watched 10 minutes of that game. It was awful.

You watched the wrong 10 minutes.

That ended up being a very good game, OSU had the ball with under a minute left down 8 and the receiver dove for the pylon and fumbled it out of the back of the endzone.

OSU has an awful run defense, but offensively they have some athletes.

They must have lost a lot of players on defense because their run defense was inpenetrable last year.

They lost their starting front 7.

Stanford had a white fullback that looked like he had the athleticism of Adrian Peterson, put up against the OSU defense.
