MSU lost, which was sad. However, they did hold Wisconsin, the number 9 team in the country pretty much all day clsoe to them. Losing by three to the number 9 team in the country one year into a new coaching period is nothing to be ashamed of.

However, pretty much every ranked team ought to be ashamed. What is it, like 8 ranked teams losing already today? Oklahoma losing to CU (total shock there), Texas to KSU, Rutgers is probably going to lose to Maryland, West Virginia to South Florida, Oregon to a higher ranked team (Cal), Penn State to Illinois, and Clemson to GA Tech. Damn. Plus, there are still a ton to play tonight. Then there are all kinds of close wins, like Wisconsin's.

I have a ton of work done so far today, which is absolutely exciting, to no end. For the rest of this weekend, all I have left to do is study for my French quiz, my Flow Cytometry worksheet for Thursday in methods, and my pound of Spanish. The last one is obviously going to hurt me the most.

I'm really tempted to take an easy thesis for Spanish, but I'm not sure what.
I thikn I jsut came up with one. I can examien the causes and effects (which is a theme of this class) by stating that "Instead of creating an open society based on free opportunities, the clash between conservative and liberal forces throughout the epoch known as La Violencia hardened the two forces against each other through conspiracy theories, the rise of narcotraffic, and an unmitigated brutality that drove Colombia into a persistent state of paranoia and conflict."

That is a HOT thesis.

So now I have to translate that, finish my flow cyt. sheet, and write a composition. Not bad weekend for me.

No, their mascot is a boilermaker. A really weird looking dude with a huge head. They just happen to have a train as well, which was one of the most ridiculous things I've seen at a college football game.

And, I don't know, I tend to find pro football more exciting in general.
