For four games: FAU, Rice, Oklahoma State, and Baylor.

Took the liberty of checking it out: tickets are $65 each ($76 with surcharges) and "best seats" are in section 32.

The A-11 Formation

This gimmicky formation could be the solution to our problems. I would like to see Beergut's breakdown of this, and see if anyone else has seen something like this

Sooner Recruit Jarboe Kicked Off Team for Packing (Heat)

One of OU's '08 WR recruits has been dismissed for gun charges of carrying a pistol at his high school + getting caught by the asst. principal. Apparently, he also likes to rap about shooting people.

Coaches Poll Out: Longhorns Start Season at #10

Texas will start the 2008 season ranked in the Top 10 in the USA Today Coaches Poll.

Also of note:

Georgia rides the media love fest to No. 1;
OU checks in at #4;
MiZZOU at #7;
KU and Tech kick off the season at #13 and #14 respectively.

So, five of the top 14 teams in the country are from the Big 12, and none of them are Nebraska, CU,or A&M. The Big 12 has become incredibly deep, incredibly fast.

MB-TF redesign

MB-TF has been redesigned. Pretty slick. I could do without the Nissan Altima advertisement, though.

Notes from Steelers Training Camp (Hampton Disappoints, Limas learns the ropes)

Casey Hampton is in Mike Tomlin's doghouse as he arrived at training camp 50 pounds overweight. Limas is leaning on Hines Ward for guidance as he hopes to become their third receiver sometime this season.

76ers order a Royal Ivey with Cheese

Former Longhorn Royal Ivey signed a multi-year deal with the Sixers. Hope he can be a mainstay on their team.
