the season is finally here! no more training camp stories, no more conjecture. it's time for the games to be played and the Golden Bears to win their way to the Rose Bowl

games of the week:
- oregon at boise. ducks try to become a rare team to win on the smurf turf. boise needs the win to validate themselves in the chase for the non-autoqualifier bcs berth. oregon is rebuilding on both lines and could get exposed. boise is boise and could get exposed. or we could get a fun, offense filled game.
- va tech vs bama. winner gets a big gold star on their bcs resume.
- georgia at ok st. uga was overrated last year but has good coaches and good athletes. okst did well in the big12 last year, but only because the big12 decided to emulate the old wac for some reason. kudos to both for scheduling it.
you should be ashamed game of the week:
- florida hosts charleston southern (seriously, a directional charleston? ). this preps them well for next week's hosting of troy. plus their other big ooc showdown, against florida atlantic (also at home). no word on if tebow will be excused from the 2nd half of this one to go save some kittens from a burning orphanage.
