Bill Tierney just can't win. (Neither can I apparently. Let them horses run, baby!)

We're kind of splitting hairs between Colgate-Massachusetts, Princeton-Virginia, and Denver-North Carolina as the weekend's most exciting offensive showcases and in the end it doesn't really matter which you notarize with your Internet fist as the most exciting. All I know is that the Pioneers and Tar Heels are brutally equipped to make Steven Rastivo and Ryan LaPlante wish they hadn't chosen the stick with the big ol' bag on the end as their favorite one of the bunch.

All I have to say is this: PEW! PEW! LACROSSE GUNS! ESPNU and ESPN3 have the broadcast.

Here's how the game shakes out on the Fun Factor scale:

**DENVER AT NORTH CAROLINA**
AWAY	HOME	TIME	FUN FACTOR	RANK
Denver	North Carolina	7:30	4.5336	4

This is your open thread for the game. Make me proud out there, kiddo.

Eamon calling a game involving Bill Tierney?

LEVITTOWN’S GETTING SOME LOVE TONIGHT! (Eamon loves giving shoutouts to the Long Island lax community, and because Wantagh and East Meadow are putting out guys instead of our town as of late, we’ll take it anyway we can)
