First, you should let Fire play, as it is all on my end.

But I think I need to really consider dropping out for now. My time is too limited for head to play.

We can try for tonIght or tomorrow. Of we don't make it, I could play CPU Friday morning if you don't think you'll stay.

Tonight's out. AT&T shut my internet down a day early, as I get Charter tomorrow.

I'll try to get online tomorrow night as long as no snafus occur with Charter.

Cool. What time is good for you, if you're able? A start between 9:15 and 10:30 pm EST works best for me. I could be available tomorrow, as well, if you're sticking with it.

Probably no earlier than 10:30 (9:30 my time). Turns out my wife has come down with the same stomach virus that mailed me last weekend, so she will probably be in bed early. Otherwise 11:30 would be more likely.

Ugh, we had something like that run through our house, as well. I'll see what I can do. I think 10:30 start time should be doable. Normally the later start wouldn't be much of a problem, but we'll have to see tonight... I also have the morning off tomorrow, if you're one who can do morning games!

I'm around if you're available.

What time do you want to start? I take my kid to school at 7am, so any time after 7:30am CST will work.

FYI - Xbox Live is kicking me off. I'm in troubleshooting mode now.

Same thing just happen here. I was getting worried that there was something wron with the connection. Fortunately I got my BCS game in before it went. Now lets hope it takes.

Well, that's good to know. I'm trying to get everything situated with a new ISP and router at the same time. It's a dual band router, and it seems to be causing conflicts.

But if Xbox Live is kicking others off, then it's probably not on my end.

I'll be on around 7:30 CST. Drop me a line whenever you're ready.

Jayhawker and I got our game in, with Indiana beating Kansas by a score of 28-10. It was pretty close for quite awhile, but IU got some breaks, managing to put together about one nice long drive in each quarter. Both of us had the INT bug, with a combined 5 INTs...but that didn't start until later in the game.

While IU's HB DeAngelo Roberts was the official player of the game with 119 rushing yards, it should have been the QB Roberson, who went 14-19 for 272 yards with 2 TDs, 2 INTs, and an additional 60 net rushing yards.

Thanks for the game, Jayhawker!

Alright. I am not waiting on Mr. Bonney. (Sorry Bill). I will roll the league when I get home from the storm.

I was going to play tonight after the father daughter dance (830pm). if you rolled it by then, that's okay.

MSU came into Bloomington ranked 3rd with a record of 7-0. Their QB had thrown 19 TDs to 0 INTs. However, he threw his first INT of the season on the second play from scrimmage, giving up a pick-6. MSU's next drive yielded a quick fumble deep in their own territory. From there the rout was on, as Indiana defeats MSU 43-0.

IU played most of the game without their best WR and using their 3rd and 4th string HBs. But, their offense was very good and their defense dominant. MSU's QB finished 14-32 for 152 yards with 2 INTs. All of their runners ended the night with less than 1 yard per carry, and -10 yards rushing total. It was a miserable night for MSU.

On the other side, IU put up 498 yards of total offense, including 176 yards rushing. QB Roberson was the player of the game, going 18-29 for 285 yards and 3 TDs.

Good times...

Oh, and you should watch the third replay. I threw the ball to a WR covered by the CB...but the defender swatted the ball off his helmet and into the hands of my receiver who went another 59 yards for a TD! Yeah, it was that kind of night.

Holy crap, 662 TDs must be some sort of record!

It looks like this was the week for everyone to commit. 12 recruits between 5 teams committed to their teams. Still trying to lands some 4 star recruits.

Fresno blanks Oregon 26-0. Fresno knocked out Mariota for the season with a broken collarbone. Derek Carr continues to be efficient by not letting the ball hit the ground. (18-21, 319, 2TDs, INT) Carr has a cool 76.4% completion percentage for the year.

only 2 tds.

Didn't notice that before as the kids were piching a fit with each other at the time.

Kush and Bonney are the two people left to play before we can move on. Since it is a holiday weekend and I will be away most of the weekend. I am giving until the time I get back on Monday before I roll the league. I do not know what time that is since I will be in AC playing poker.

Happened to be up late after Shag rolled last night, so I played my game. IU beats a tough Ohio State team, 17-7.

OSU missed a crucial 4th-quarter FG (banging it off the uprights) that set them back. Still, their offense was going to have a hard time coming back. They were able to really sustain one drive all night (that one was about 14 plays and 75 yards...crazy long drive).

But, IU's offense wasn't exactly lighting things on fire, either. Both defenses played very well. Yet, there were NO turnovers! And each team only gave up 2 sacks.

The player of the game was probably IU's MLB David Cooper, who had 14 tackles, including 2 for a loss.

Interestingly, IU is ranked #18 by the coaches, #9 by the media, and #13 in the BCS.

Damn; I wasn't able to grab that #1 TE from Missouri. Who wants to go to Mizzou? Seriously?

Also, feel bad for 1-8 Minnesota this week. Hopefully.

IU beats up Minnesota, 66-7. IU's defense grabbed 4 INTs, returning two of them for TDs. On the other side of the ball, IU put up nearly 500 yards of offense.

Managed to grab an instant commit from a top 5 OLB, as well, so it was a good week.

Next up, Nebraska.

We will roll tonight at some point. I think I play Jayhawker, so let me know when you can play this week.
