This weekend was one of the most fantastic weekends of all time. This is because it was the start of the football season. So many college football games were played and it was amazing to be watching one of the most thrilling sports ever. I was able to sit in my suite common room and watch running backs break tackles for touchdowns and watch quarterbacks complete their first passes of the season. It was thrilling time and a perfect start to this school year.

I was able to watch the Syracuse football team loose rather largely to the Washington Huskies. This was a depressing time because Syracuse is my hometown and I like to see the Orange win. They never were ever that good at football but this year was supposed to be different. The team has a new coach and a new recruiting class that is suppose to be good. I was not that disappointed because the Orange are never good and I am used to watching them loose over the years.

One disappointment, that was awful to me, was the Notre Dame Fighting Irish loosing their home opener to Georgia Tech. The Irish only scored 3 points in the whole game and did not play Notre Dame football the whole game. It was a poor showing and I am not particularly happy with the team this year. I think that Charlie Weiss needs to pick a quarterback and stick with him. I also think that the defense needs to step it up so that I can root on the Fighting Irish to victories and not watch them is disappointment for loosing.

Another game that was interesting to watch was the Michigan game. Michigan is suppose to be national title contender and the lost to a Division I AA team. It was impressing to watch this team that was not suppose to have a chance take down the Wolverines.
