Auburn almost lost to San Jose State also. Isn't it fun that it isn't us for a change?   

I am going to quibble on one though...I don't agree AT ALL that UF "should" have beaten UK.  They were favored but the Kats are no. 20 in the country and a lot better than they used to be.  I wouldn't call that a huge upset at all. I am doing this to take a shot at Florida, which I am always happy to do, but actually it's true.

When is the last time all those schools lost to historically inferior brands?

Fair point on UK. But as an UT fan FL is always more of a threat

When is the last time UT and UK were both ranked in the AP when they played on the gridiron?  

It's a pretty amazing stat......

Hi Coupe!  Is Dan O'Shaunessy still at APL? I am trying to track down a MESSENGER paper he sent me almost 10 years ago.  Sent him an email, hope he responds. I haven't spoken to him since 2013.

Dan and I used to be good buddies, but I have not seem him in a while since MESSENGER ended.  I think I talked to him earlier this year, pretty sure he is still around.  I think he is working on a Titan or Europa mission now --- those are just starting to ramp up and Dan is pretty far up there in the org tree.

Just tell him James said hi.
