Bring it on

Posted on September 27, 2005 by Matt Todd

I’ve just spent the last half hour memorizing the Roman Emperors and the years in which they reigned. I’ll be ready for NTI by Thursday morning.

Bring it on, Ramsaran!

OK, maybe I’m not that confident, but I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to hold my own for the test.

Speaking of holding their own…

I gave up on the Vols last night at halftime. They were losing to LSU, 21-0. Apparently, they came back and won in overtime. I hear it was the greatest half in the history of UT football. This was the first time in over 100 years of LSU football that they have ever lost a 21-point lead. That’s quite a meltdown. I guess you can’t completely shut the door on Tennessee’s national championship hopes.

In other football tidbits, IU is apparently one of this year’s elite programs – so far. They lead the Big Ten in some key categories and are in the top 20 nationally in others. And, more importantly, they are still undefeated! Only 25 teams are still undefeated and the Hoosiers are in that group. Someone pinch me, I must be dreaming!

I really think they have a chance against Wisconsin this Saturday (it’s going to be on ESPN2). The Badgers have a history of looking past the Hoosiers and it has shown. IU has defeated Wisconsin the last two times they’ve played. To make matters worse for the Badgers, they just defeated Michigan for the first time in forever. It’s going to be natural for them to look past the Cream and Crimson. Here’s hoping!
