Dateline: Austin TX.

We're off to Austin, TX this afternoon for a busy weekend of eating, shopping, watching tomorrow's game between TEXAS and the Wyoming Cowboys and remembering Ungarski.

Last year these two teams played up in Laramie where the Pokes welcomed the 'Horns to 7200 feet, which Texas graciously accepted.

Now it's time to welcome UW to the house that Bevo built. Lower altitude, more humidity and about 60-thousand more fans.

The Pokes led at the half last year, but Texas plays the full 60 minutes. Just ask Nebraska.

The pre-game will be extra special, honoring a fallen Cowboy (can't wait to hear the Show Band of the South West play Cowboy Joe) and of course, honoring those lost on 9-11.

There are some terrific games this weekend including:
#17 Florida State at #10 Oklahoma
#12 Miami (FL) at #2 Ohio State
#18 Penn State at #1 Alabama and....
Austin Peay at Middle Tennessee. (Hey, they have fans too!)

There already have been some upsets, and there likely will be more Saturday. It's the excuse we're using for being LAST in our college football pool. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

College Football. The greatest game on earth. Enjoy!
