Sorry I couldn't find a link for the calendar, it opened in Word only.

you should CC pete carroll on this. he may not know all the rules when it comes to recruiting. :yelwink2:

Just trying to provide some football info during the off season. I see Southern Charm is also in the off season.

aww shucks, vball, we was just joshing witcha. :thumb:

Yes, I'm aware. If I was that thin skinned I don't think I'd be posting on a Tiger Forum. :hihi:

It remains to be seen if I receive such similar treatment in January. :rofl:

A great time to take a vacation! :hihi::hihi:

Especially if you like to travel with your favorite football team. :grin:

Can only hope you make it down south this year for your vacation, and hope even more that it's to meet LSU. Apparently quite a few "talking heads" seem to think this is the most likely scenario. Now we just have to make sure neither of us trips while tying our shoelaces!

IF USC is in NOLA come January, so will I be.

And you're right about not looking ahead. We did that a bit against utla and look where that got us..........Pasadena instead of Arizona. :dis: I believe your schedule favors a date in January. Your toughest games at home (VaTech, Fla, Aub, and Ark) with bama being the toughest road game IMO plus you have a stretch of 3 back to back home games early to help build confidence. USC's road schedule is full of potential potholes. Neb, WA, ND, Or, and kal on the road with two games back to back but in the middle of the season.
