Sad pandas need new bamboo. Fortunately, others are growing it as we speak.

You, too, can run the spread option against Auburn. Courtesy of Mr. 2 Cents, a handy study aid for those playing along at home with the 2007 Florida offense versus Auburn and Ole Miss.

When it works, it’s beautiful> When it doesn’t, Cuddles calls us at 2:45 in the morning Sunday asking “Remember when Auburn beat Florida?” Spin the wheel!

Enjoy the Enjoyment has the news that Washington’s recovering DB Jordan Murchison from the injured list. Murchison had been suspended on a domestic violence charge as well as on an assault charge, making the Huskies’ line up “deeper and jail-eyer” in the words of the site.

The International Bowl must be holding out a shred of hope that Notre Dame is going to go on a tear and become bowl eligible, since their site features the Fightin’ Irish’s fight song as their theme music.

Auburn has a whole new season ahead of them, according to Will Collier. Perhaps true, though we can’t imagine them playing a better game than they did Saturday night.
