of a great big piece 'o cow consumed last night, and on MSU's tab to boot. Enjoyed meeting a goodly number of State fans both on the flight from Jackson, and at the team hotel yesterday.
Barely a cloud in the sky right now (4:15) and not many more folk outside the stadium for that matter. I'm seated press box front row (thanks to former MSU p.r. aide Cassie Arner who is now running the show here at Houston) and the 42 yard line. Of course there are only two rows in the press box; this is an old facility that's been face-lifted a few times but really needs a major upgrade...which I hear will be done in three phases over the years.
Another way to look at it: this is the difference being in a major conference makes over time. Houston has done a lot more winning the last 20 years, compared at least to MSU...but even our lower-level SEC facilities blow this away. No wonder non-BCS schools so despise the system which we at State have every reason to prefer to anything else.
<font size="6">And speaking of BCS stuff...man, USC-Bama is putting me in a bind. Y'all know who I want to lose personally, but we need Alabama locked into the title game to open up the SEC's bowl ladder a little more for us!</font></p></div></td></tr></tbody></table>
