Is Bradford still at Oklahoma? If so, I wouldn't be stunned to see a rematch of last year's National Championship game.

And really, the argument doesnt go much further than 3 words: Donkey Kong Country.

You know, my generation is so lucky it got to experience childhood without videogames... and then the amazement of the very first really accessible home consoles... and here I've got to see and experience the evolution of videogames to what they are now.

I dunno, if I'm ever blessed with children I cannot imagine them humoring an 8-bit NES for two seconds... requires too much imagination, me thinks. Going full circle, just take football videogames as a perfect example. Used to, you had two options on offense - run or pass. And your football players were blue or white dots. Now you've got hundreds upon hundreds of plays, specific playbooks, audibles, all kinds of shit that I don't even understand. And game makers are being sued for using real life likenesses.

My 9-year old LOVES 8 bit NES. He has a Wii and Ps2, but loves to play some of the old NES games.

NBA Jam was on both, so they cancel out.

Mario Bros > Sonic, and that doesnt even include Mario Kart

Actually College Slam was on SNES too.

Here's some that I know were only SNES. I still play all of these fairly frequently.

thanks for the vote of confidence Brad!  I just don't see it happening, we lost about 1200 lbs. of beef in our o-line.  Four new guys starting there is not a recipe for success.  Even with Bradford, Gresham, and McCoy staying I don't like our chances.  I think we end the year with two losses. I like where your heads at though.  Good luck to your tide! ;)

wait, that's not a night game? it was a night game the last few years and it was in nov, right? weird. although a 'white out' during the day is a LITTLE less intimidating.

The time is still TBA, but I dont get why they say that and dont explain it at all.

The last 2 OSU @ PSU games were actually in October, but I still dont get the reasoning behind how it wouldnt be a night game because its in November

Is anyone buying into the Ole Miss hype? Some folks are predicting Ole Miss to win the SEC West and even end the season ranked in the Top 5. I just don't see it - far as I'm concerned, this year's Ole Miss is last year's Georgia. To make matters worse, their non-conference schedule is the worst I've ever seen...

@ Memphis
Whoever the fuck USL is...
@ South Carolina
@ Vanderbilt
Alabama
UAB, if it still has a team...
Arkansas
@ Auburn
North Arizona?
Tennessee
LSU
@ Miss. State

9-3 (doesn't win the division) plus a bowl, but I just don't see Top 5 there.

Once we get into football season (new thread), there'll be more poon and less Saban.
