    couple feature matchups this weeks slate.

    Notre Dame vs Michigan and Florida vs Tennessee are the two feature matchups on this weekend slate.



    For Michigan, the key is to dominate the line of scrimmage and establish the run. Mike Hart needs to have a big day if they have any hope of winning. Obviously, the Irish defense wants to shut that down and force Henne to beat them. On offense, I think Notre Dame will come out with a pretty balanced attack, and as long as they minimize mistakes, they have a real advantage in the match-up against that Wolverine D. Look for that ND tight end (shoot... someone help me with a name?) to have another solid game.


    The way Ainge and Leak are going, I expect lots and lots of passing - so whoever runs the ball better wins the game.

    You forgot to mention LSU @ Auburn. That is the game Im looking forward to watching this weekend. Should be a good one.

    We got a game in Hawaii to keep us up late Saturday night as well. I think the Rebels might be able to win that game on the island. They seem to be a much improved team this year. They got screwed at Iowa State last week.

    I just cant bring myself to look forward to a Michigan game. They alway play under there talent level. On the other hand those two SEC games,especialy LSU/Aub, make me wish saturday was already here.

    Be aware of the "homer" calls in Hawaii games. A lot of very suspicious and ridiculous officiating there the majority of the time there, imo.

    Auburn and LSU are both better than any of those four teams.

    LAS VEGAS - UNLV's football game at Hawaii on Saturday night will be televised live in Southern Nevada on KLAS TV-8 (CBS), director of athletics Mike Hamrick announced.

    Hamrick said the details had been worked out to allow the school to bring the game back to the Las Vegas market. The Rebels will kick off at 9 p.m. PDT as the final game of a tripleheader on the CBS station. Earlier in the day, LSU plays at Auburn and then Florida visits Tennessee leading up to the Rebels' first trip to the islands since 2000.

    UNLV radio play-by-play voice Dave McCann will move over to the TV booth and partner with analyst Blaine Fowler while John Hanson, sports director at Lotus Broadcasting, will call the game on radio along with analyst Mike Pritchard on ESPN 920 AM.

    UNLV will return late Sunday heading into a bye week. The Rebels will then host Nevada, Reno on Sept. 30 in their final non-conference game of the season. Tickets are on sale by calling (702) 739-FANS or logging on to unlvrebels.com.
