What to read on the front lawn while eluding women pirates and waiting for your hurricane-proof home to arrive in the mail:

Hurry, there's still time! Heave a Hail Mary Haiku into the end zone and join the Rocky Top Talk College Pick 'Em game.
One Million Large. Coach Fulmer has given One Million Large to the University of Tennessee. Andy's got the quotes from the cynics. Add this one, from Cynic C: You think Fulmer would have done that if coach Bruce Pearl hadn't already done the same thing? A rebuttal for the cynics: When's the last time you gave even a penny back to your employer?
On Cal and Berkeley. Fulmer's Belly has some, uh, thoughts on Cal.
Pinkies and controversies. In case you missed it, Ainge has jammed his pinky finger, and the Cromptonites are delirious.
RTT Today. Andy and I stumble out of the gate with the season's first Corn from a Jar podcast and the preseason BlogPoll.
But can they tackle? The play of the game last year this time in Knoxville? Montario Hardesty's 43-yard, 11-tackle-breaking touchdown run. So says the Cal defense, which is using the play as motivation for Saturday. Plastic megaphones amuse Jonathan Hefney.
Road dogs again. CFN previews Cal-Tennessee and picks Cal, 30-24.

Time's up. Keep your eye on the Magic Google Column for updates throughout the day.

Cal prediction

The indications coming out of Berkeley is that of a team already intimidated before the Vols get off the plane. Last years game would have been 60-0 if Fulmer hadn't called off the dogs in the 3rd quarter. The semi-respectable score of 35-18 caused Cal to be ranked ahead of Tennessee later in the season, a head scratcher for sure. This year, Coach doesn't have to worry about a return engagement.

Tennessee 44, Cal 13.

Vinnie Testaverde is always remembered for Tennessee kicking his ass.

Berkley vs Neyland

You have to respect all the Cal fans for trying to create a tough atmosphere, but let's be realistic. Megaphones? do they really think megaphones are going to be as hostile as Baton Rogue or Gainesville? maybe we should remind them that we play in Neyland Stadium 7 times a year. The truth is that Cal fans are lacking because Berkley is in the middle of professional markets. Saturday is a culture clash, I hope we represent the SEC well.

proof on the humor that is Cal football fans:
