Southwestern Pirates or Hardened Sinners?

Yes, it is the first weekend of collegiate football and the reincarnated Southwestern Pirates in its third season after a 63 year absence from the gridiron is taking on the Hardened Sinners in Abilene, Texas this afternoon. Any predictions about the outcome?

but I see other people post about their college teams in this forum so it's only fair that I get to have some fun too. Pillage Pirates, pillage!!!

BTW, there is another person that joined a couple of months ago that graduated from Southwestern so I'm not the only person from the #1 liberal arts university in Texas that is here.

They've won their division. Owner Nolan Ryan must be happy except they are the Rangers' AAA team.

but I'm not really a baseball fan. You're lucky to get updates about Chico every once in awhile so be grateful.

and also see that UT hasn't had a first down.

After the blowout with Hardin-Simmons I think that I'm looking forward to lacrosse season again.
