I can't believe I'm saying this, but I would have liked to see KState
up against Michigan.  I mean, what do you plan for?  They are so
schizo on offense.  I've watched them a few times this year and I just
can't quite figure out how they do it.  Their QB must be made of
rubber or something because he really gets nailed at times.

And just to kick off another in a long line of gripes, I think I'd
rather see Okie State take on LSU than a repeat of the 9-6 game.  Okie
State is an offense the SEC just hasn't seen in the last couple of
years, and they are running it rather well.  Pretty sure they can't
stop LSU, but I'm not so sure that LSU could complete shut down the
Cowboys.  But, it will never be.
