Sporting News is reporting that 6-foot-4, 230-pound all-around athlete Anthony Barr has pared down his choices to Notre Dame and UCLA. (Eliminating SC, Michigan and Cal)

While his parents are reportedly ND grads, I would like to think the coaching carousel in South Bend will give him second thoughts.

A local writer wrote this. Pretty surprising except that it isn't one of the Local Trojan writers who wrote it, (Maya, Foster, et al)

the captions to the accompanying photos were the best part, I thought.

What are your plans for the game?

You know the game I'm talking about. We all plan to take in the game in some shape or form, or as I call it, yelling at the TV over a few beers. I thought it would be interesting to hear from everybody where they will be. As BruinChick mentioned in the Game Ticket post, it sucks when you are traveling alone but must see the game.

I managed to coerce (not really) some friends that are Bruins into going out to a pub after I gave up hope of finding somebody to go the Mausoleum with me.

That being said, it's roll call time. Sound off.

I thought you guys would be interested in this first person description of South Central's dismantling at the hands of the Oregon Ducks.

Somebody at good old Every Day Should Be Saturday put this mash up together celebrating the Ducks crushing defeat of the Troy Boys.

I didn't see how I could embed this myself so I include the link instead.

"NCAA rules are applied equally to all individuals regardless of national prominence or level of athletic ability," Osburn wrote. "Not only does this mean that gifted athletes are not granted exceptions based on their ability, but . . . "

No need to explain why this is funny here on BN.

Louisiana State fan Jerry Payne tailgates at every LSU game in a 40-foot motor home that retailed for $400,000 and comes complete with a master bedroom and bath, real wood cabinetry and a 37-inch hi-def TV.

And if you think that's serious, some tailgaters are sponsored by beer companies.

But you don't need a beer sponsorship or a rig so lavish USC could offer it as a recruiting incentive to a running back's parents.

"We have to win every game for now on," Kendricks said. "We can’t lose again. I don’t think we are, either. Actually, I know we’re not."

When asked about the team’s confidence this week against UCLA, he said: "We’re going to win this week." When a reporter asked if he wanted to guarantee that, Kendricks simply repeated: "We’re going to win this week."

Every year Cal's home game against one of the LA schools is commemorated as the "Joe Roth Memorial game" in honor of one of their courageous and fallen heroes.

This year, this weekend, it is against USC. I would have wanted USC to lose anyway but having read about the life of Joe Roth, and the significance of this game to Cal; I want the Trojans to lose even more.

Go Bears! Beat South Central!

For the most dedicated of Tailgaters, now you can get your Tortilla chips in school colors!

(I found these in a local 7-11 and wanted to share with my people on Bruins Nation. Then I saw they had them in Volunteers color, so I thought I would share with ya'll!)
