Bad Feelings

1. It is not good to be in the NCAA football top five this year. You may say, "Why Eric, it is good to be in the top five. Then you have a chance to play for the National Title." While this is true, i the first seven weeks of the football season, 11 teams that were ranked over then #12 Ohio State have all lost, moving the Buckeyes up to #1. Another team that benefited from the fall of so many teams was #2 South Florida. The Bulls were undefeated and poised for a Cinderella season if they could win out to go to the title game. Well, they didn't. Another top five team has fallen from grace. Rutgers beat SFU 30-27 last night. Rutgers shuold be used to it since they beat #3 Louisville last season in a similar fasion.

2. The Indians sucked a big one last night, losing to the Red Sox 7-1. The Indoans' pitching was terrrible and their hitting was terrible too. Now they have two games in Boston. I am getting a bad feeling about this. The Red Sox are a very good team and they could easily win three in a row to go to the world series.

3. Ohio State starts the main part of their Big Ten season tomorrow. I have a bad feeling after seeing all of these other top ten teams get dropped. Michigan State always seems to play OSU hard. The Buckeyes will need to bring their A game for the rest of the season if they want to go unscathed through the rest of the year. I doubt that they will get tot he National Title Game as a one loss team.
