SEC vs. Pac-10

There are few places I would rather be than at a race track. But when I usually go to a race track, I end up in the media center.
This being the opening weekend of college football, we were watching a lot of football games on TV while waiting for NASCAR drivers to qualify and race at California Speedway.
Needless to say, being in a roomful of people from the South, it was not a pleasant environment.
The Pac-10 football teams made it very difficult to enjoy the company of my fellow journalists, especially those who call Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia home.
Tennessee thumped Cal. Auburn rolled over Washington State. It took USC nearly two quarters to score a touchdown against Arkansas. ARKANSAS!
The only argument I could make was that Oregon looked good Saturday only to be reminded that it was against Stanford.
At least by the end of the afternoon we all agreed it would be good for every team in the country if Georgia Tech beat Notre Dame. That is every team but Notre Dame.
Luckily the Busch Series race began before the Georgia Tech-Notre Dame could end and I didn't have to listen to the insufferable Georgia Tech fans who double as NASCAR writers and broadcasters.
Thanks Pac-10 for showing up Saturday.
