SPAT, SERIOUSLY
Okay, it's going to be hard to prove, but seriously I had commented to Hawk Digest interns a few times this season that I would never buy a pair of Adidas shoes because I have never seen a football team slip as much as the 2008 Jayhawks.

UNDEFEATED LIVES IN LUBBOCK

Full list of perfect teams and next opponent:
Alabama 9-0 at LSU (Sat)
Texas Tech 9-0 vs OSU (Sat)
Penn State 9-0 at Iowa (Sat)
Utah 9-0 vs TCU (Thur)
Boise State 8-0 vs Utah St (Sat)
Ball State 8-0 vs N. Illinois (Wed)

Off the List:
Texas lost to Tech 33-39

Jim Marchiony had to discount Kevin Keitzman's claim that the Arrowhead Border War would be extended four years. It will be decided near the end of the season according to Marchiony:
