This page will take us from the last days of heat. To the crisp days and nights of fall. Football season, World Series, Halloween and into the holiday season, and the first snowfall for some. Favorite time of year

Great post!

This new thread makes me very happy!

First snow could be recorded in this thread!

Be ready for a heavy traffic and numerous people.  It's worth the experience if you've never done it; however, I will warn you that it was very busy the ONE time we went years ago.  I prefer to ride my bike up the rail trail.

48 this morning, was too early for this. I miss waking up to 70 degrees with that dewpoint not far behind. What a wakeup call from the last few weeks that we were used to.

I honestly think I could have written this post myself. I love warm mornings and not needing a jacket.

Their remaining cross-division games this year are against Nebraska and Purdue, and the only team in the East that has a prayer is probably Penn State, but that game is in Columbus. Unless Oregon beats them next week (also in Columbus), they’re going 12-0.

We did and I honestly thought it was a waste of time. Much better views closer to homes without lines up King’s Mountain. It was like. A dirt road through the woods - to me nothing special. I don’t get the fascination. YMMV.

Agree, I don't think PSU has a chance.

At least for you guys, Penn State doesn’t open their season against Akron or Idaho or something, so you’ll know by tomorrow evening what kind of season it’s going to be.

So the person getting married is your second cousin? Is that distant enough to sneak the game onto your phone during the ceremony?

What's new ha.  Just a factory of talent there.  I will say, while their skill talent is very good, the defense is a bit susceptible and I don't think the quarterback is quite to the level of other guys they've had recently.  They are still heavy favorites to win the league but even the mighty OSU gets had by an unsuspecting foe most years.

Eh I don't quite subscribe to that.  I think no matter who wins the game tomorrow, both PSU and Wisco can still have the seasons they envision.  Of course, fans of both programs will wildly overact to the results of a week one game, but the reality is that the examples are endless of teams laying a stinker in week one and then going on to have great seasons, or vice versa.  This being college-aged guys and there being no warm-up games only adds to the unknowns.  Teams can look quite different from week one to week two.  Again, the only guarantee is overreaction on both sides ha.

We have a wedding tomorrow as well (my wife's brother) but at least it's not until 6pm.  I should be able to get through the game just fine, outside of the normal hand-wringing from my wife about "getting ready".

Black shoes.  Basic blues.  No names.  All game.

We Are!!!

to be fair, they did plan for this a little. There is a 3 hour break between the wedding and reception. While the wedding party get pictures, we are all going to my cousins house for pre-reception cocktails and football. I know its a big shocker to y'all i come form a beer drinking family.
