Weekend Sports Preview
Base10 was watching the Louisville v. West Virginia game last night and it was pretty exciting. The Cardinals were trailing all night, but managed to tie it up in the last couple of minutes. They could not, however, hold on and lost on a last second TD. Good game and it shows that no ranked team is safe.

This weekend's NFL games do not include the Jets, so at least we can avoid another loss. Dallas v. Giants looks like the game to watch as well as the Indy v. San Diego game. The Chargers are struggling but are still a potential scoring powerhouse.

On the college side, the only ranked teams playing each other ar Georgia (18) v. Auburn (10), and USC (12) v. Cal (24). There is always the possiblity of an upset as well. The grudge match of the week looks like Florida v. S. Carolina pitting current Gator coach and NCAAF wunderkind Urban Meyer against former Gator coach Steve Spurrier.

We're certain the Base10 Cousin will be closely watching the Florida St. v. Virginia Tech. Florida St. is, of course, coming off an upset victory against no. 2 Boston College last week. Another upset could propel them back into the rankings.

In NASCAR Nation, there are only two races left in the Chase. Sunday's race is somewhat anticlimactic unless you're Jeff Gordon or Jimmie Johnson. Base10 recently read a very interesting column by Jay Hart about the future of NASCAR. It is especially compelling given that Sam Harnish--the successful IRL driver--is switching to NASCAR next season.
