Found this interesting list over at Shepherd Express - "100 things to look forward to this college football season"

Here's the Top Ten:

1. Tulsa at La-Monroe on Thursday, August 30! (It's the first televised game of the season - 7pm ESPNU.)

2. Brent Musburger's first "You are looking live�" of the season.

3. Seeing the Gameday piece on Penn State football players cleaning Beaver Stadium and then having Desmond Howard sit down with select players and ask, "So, do you think you'll ever home-invade again?"

4. Nick Saban and Alabama hosting LSU on Saturday, November 3. There will be lawn chairs and styrofoam as far as the eye can see.

5. Indiana quarterback Kellen Lewis running for his life, and knowing exactly what to do with the ball.

6. Illinois quarterback Juice Williams running for his life, but having no idea what to do with the ball...

7. ...and then finding freshman receiver Arrelious Benn for a 60-yard touchdown.

8. Watching USC at Nebraska on Saturday, September 15. If you want to know how far Bill Callahan has brought the Nebraska program, pull up a chair and find out.

9. Virginia Tech at LSU on Saturday, September 8.

10. Antone Smith trying to become Florida State's first 1,000-yard running back since Warrick Dunn in 1996.

Take a look through the list and let me know which is your favorite, or list your own.

Ah, another Keith Jackson fan. Fantastic!

I really miss his broadcasts. There's no one in college football today who can touch him.

And LSU-Bama may be the most anticipated game of the season. That's gonna be a great rivalry!

Here is a bit of trivia: how many of you remember that Keith Jackson was banned from Commentating Alabama football because he showed bias toward Alabama because he and Bear were such good friends.

I sure do miss hearing announcing games.
