25 Purdue at Indiana            17-Nov       $ 77         25        $ 59

Granted, this is a fairly useless ranking, as it only uses gross dollar volume of tickets sold through StubHub. But it’s interesting nonetheless. Also, it looks like the Washington schools didn’t make the cut.

Week 1, on your couch

CommishRob — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 03:01:10 +0000

Thanks to Awful Announcing for having someone compile this list.

Here are the highlights:

Tomorrow, ESPN begins to completely whip our ass with the 25-hour pregame nightmare.
Then we get LSU and Miss St with Fowler, Flutie, and James (are you kidding me that we have to put up with Craig James in the booth now?), and the lovely Erin Andrews.
On Friday, just watch baseball—Washington at Syracuse might be unlistenable with Colin Cowherd in the booth.
Best games on Saturday:
- Georgia Tech at ND
- Oklahoma St at Georgia
- UCLA at Stanford (if you can ignore the awful FSN whiteout effect)
- Tennessee at Cal (BRENT and the Musburger Drinking Game)

P.S. Early Saturday will be very Virginia Tech intensive on the Worldwide Leader.

Moody looking at Florida instead?

Sorry, Okie St: Apparently Emmanuel Moody thinks that Florida’s overcrowded backfield is better than SC’s, which currently has two healthy tailbacks. Nice, Emmanuel.

Update: Apparently, Okie St. is out all together as Moody’s list contains Florida and North Carolina according to Joe Schad of ESPN.com.

Moody from SI cover to Oklahoma State?

Emmanuel Moody has decided to leave USC and come back to Big 12 country. Apparently he feels that the backlog at tailback (not to mention his injuries) have pushed him out of the playing time derby.
