Wow! A VERY rough weekend for the football teams I support. Good thing the Bears aren't playing!

Michigan 20, Iowa 6
Texas Tech 42, Iowa State 26
San Diego 37, Drake 0

Iowa Stars 8, Syracuse Crush 5
Des Moines Buccaneers 3, Sioux Falls Stampede 2, in overtime

Linda and I did brave the elements to support Drake's Sellout Saturday and see the number-one-in-the-nation San Diego Tereros at Drake Stadium. Unfortunately, the number-two-in-the-nation Drake Bulldogs did not have one of their better showings. San Diego moved the ball in moderate chunks that Drake could just not stop. On offense, the Bulldogs were never really able to get it moving with any consistency. In the end, the score reflected the game: Drake was beaten by a team that was clearly superior tonight. On top of that, the band didn't show up, even in the stands. Fortunately, the one-dollar hot dog offer was a very successful promotion.
