27-42 for 304 yards and 1 TD is solid. McGee led the Cowboys to six scoring drives, including two to regain the lead in the fourth quarter. He won't be unseating Romo anytime soon, but his progress means they'll probably be able to get rid of Jon Kitna after this season.

Nothing really new, except they have Nehemiah Hicks starting at TE. Also have EZ beating out Terrance McCoy for the starting spot.

I usually only bet on college football games when I'm in Vegas (Labor Day weekend last year was particularly profitable), but for those of you who like to accelerate your degeneration online, Cleveland Frowns is the man for you. That is he an excellent writer with a terrific sense of humor helps, too.

Go ahead, give in to the urge, and headbutt your co-workers*, because the D-IA schedule of college football begins today.

Everything begins with the Presbyterian Blue Hose of the Big South Conference taking on Wake Forest at 5:30 PM in a game that will be shown streaming on ESPN3. Marshall opens their season at #2 Ohio State in a nice Conference USA-Big Ten matchup that will be featured on the Big Ten Network at 6:30 PM. Terrelle Pryor begins his Heisman campaign in earnest tonight.

Other games:

Texas A&M Aggies Vs. Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks: Game Preview

The Aggies open the 2010 college football season with a game against the defending Southland Conference co-champion Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks. SFA enters the game ranked between 6th and 12th in various preseason polls, with a #8 ranking in the FCS coaches top 25 poll. SFA has an all-time record of 0-2 against A&M, with the last meeting between the two schools coming in 1935.

Today, we're going to begin getting ready for Saturday by taking a look at SFA's team:

Offense

The Lumberjack offense is led by DI-AA All-American candidate Jeremy Moses, who passed for 4124 yards, 40 TDs,  and 21 INTs last season. Moses is a fairly accurate passer, completing 385-566 passes last year (68%). The Lumberjacks attempted 600 passes in 13 games last season, an average of 46 passes per game. To say they like to throw the ball around is an understatement. Moses was named the Southland Conference Co-Offensive Player of the Year last season, and is on several preseason All-American teams. Moses is SFA's all-time leader in total offense, passing yards, attempts, and TD passes. He should be a solid test early for Tim DeRuyter's new 3-4 defense.

Sophomore RB Romonte' Hampton, who rushed for 324 yards and 4 TDs last season in a limited role, is expected to lead the 'Jacks ground game. The 5'9, 184 lb Hampton is a second-team All-Southland Conference pick this preseason. Hampton had 17 recpetions for 77 yards last season, so SFA may use him in the passing game.

After losing three of their top receivers from last year, SFA will be looking at  sophomore Gralyn Crawford to lead their offense in the early going, Crawford (5/'10, 175 lbs) started as a true freshman last season, and finished the year as the team's third-leading receiver, with 51 receptions for 785 yards (15.4 ypc), and 7 TDs.  Sophomore Cordell Roberson (6'3, 192 lb) caught 20 passes for 380 yards and 4 TDs last season. Robinson had four receptions (20% of his total) go for 40 or more yards last season, so he can be a deep threat. Sophomore Anthony Foster (10 receptions, 70 yards, 0 TDs) is another returning receiver with experience.

On their offensive line, SFA returns three starters, junior George Bias (6'3, 304 lbs), sophomore John Steel (6'3, 273 lbs) and sophomore Austin Wright (6'2, 295 lbs). Wright and Steel started at the offensive guard positions, and Bias was the starter at RT. Given that they'll be facing an odd-front defense, the most important position to watch in this game will be the offensive tackles. SFA only averaged 125 yards per game last season rushing the ball, so our defense should be able to pin their ears back and get after Moses. I wouldn't be surprised to see SFA try to run the ball a little early, though, to test out the soundness of our defense.

SFA's offensive strength is their passing game, and I expect them to lean on it here in their first game. SFA finished last season 72nd in the nation in rushing offense, and I don't see them trying to run the ball early on A&M, unless it is to test our defense, or slow down the game.

Senior Alyssa Mautz was named conference offensive player of the week after four goals in two games last week. Mautz had a hat-trick, including the game winner, against #16 Virginia Tech in a 5-3 win on Friday, and scored the only goal in a 1-0 win over #21 Washington State on Sunday.

The team moved up in the rankings this week, and is now #7 in the nation.

I Am The 12th Man Weekly Radio Show

I got together with miketag last night, and we co-hosted the inaugural I Am The 12th Man Weekly Radio Show. Kicking off the season, we discussed our opening opponent, Stephen F. Austin, their defensive line, our expectations for the opening game, what we hope to see in the game, our players to watch, our disappointment with $Bill, the upcoming games on Thursday night, and more. It was a little rough, but not too bad for the first show. I am hoping to make this a weekly occurrence, and hope to have readers from here and around the blogosphere call in and talk Aggie sports and college football in general. If I can swing it, I hope to have wishiwasalonghorn co-host with us, and give us his texas-centric view on things. In future weeks, I am hoping I'll be able to talk to the managers of the other Big 12 blogs before we play each other each week.

Our first show is linked below, so go ahead and give it a listen. The audio doesn't begin until about 45 seconds in, because I was having an issue logging in.
