In honor of this game, the computers in the press box will all run on Windows 95.

The players and coaches will all park 10 blocks from the stadium. All available spaces will be reserved for ad salespeople and university fundraisers.

Any players who break their equipment will have to live with it; there's no money in the budget for replacements until next year, if we're lucky.

All rules for the game will be "gray"; anyone who complains loud enough and long enough can get one or all of them changed.

The best-looking formations on offense and defense will earn points. It doesn't matter if you can't possibly complete or stop a play with the formation. If it looks good, it must be right.

After the game, please allow time for the score to be retallied. AP will move 25-30 write-thrus to correct details; be ready for this as well.

When leaving, fans should put their bottles, napkins and uneaten hot dog buns into the bins for recycling. Poynter's Al Tompkins will serve as voluntary usher and bin emptier.

The start time for this game will be reported 25 different ways. Make your best guess to arrive in time for the kickoff.

All cutlines will report only the players' uniform numbers. The rest of the information is available from the program or on the Internet.

After the game, seniors will be taken off scholarship. After all, there are plenty of freshmen who have potential and that gleam in their eyes, and we need to clear spaces for them. Seniors will be escorted from the stadium; their clothes and belongings will be mailed to them later.

What exactly are you blathering about? It's written in English, but the meaning must be in swahili or something.

You have to read between the lines.

Go sell crazy somewhere else. There's enough here to go around three times over.

Is there a good journalism school that has a football team that is worth a hill of beans?

The Ohio State University. [/indiansnetwork]

Missouri is decent and will contend for the Big 12 North if it can get past Nebraska. The rest of the division sucks.

I hate to say it but Missouri is not winning a meaningful road game while Pinkel is there. Hell, New Mexico had half of its team hurt, and they still struggled to eke out a win there.

We're journalists, not jocks. Come on

Mizzou-Ohio can get the Journo Bowl title since Indiana and Northwestern aren't playing for the Ernie Pyle of Shit Bowl this season.

2005 -- Kansas 13, Mizzou 3
2004 -- Kansas 31, Mizzou 14
2003 -- Kansas 35, Mizzou 14

Sorry, but you better beat one team from the division that "sucks" before you get ahead of yourselves.

This will be old Ohio's day!

Frank Solich stumbles in after being slipped another Mickey on his white horse with the mighty Bobcats in tow. The offense finds the week 2 playbook from the Northern Illinois game. The defense stands tall once again. Special teams figure out how to block for the punter. Fans of THE Ohio University party on Court St. party deep into the morning.
