The Bottom 10 Inspirational Thought of the Week:Oh gently please, Wont you take your time with me? Oh gently please, Stop talking bout dying like havent tried it.All the things, the things I thought Id seen. Sure didnt see that coming.-- Didnt See That Coming Taking Back SundayHere at Bottom 10 headquarters, located along the shoreline of the reservoir where Tom Rinaldi collects our tears, our offices were empty over the weekend. Why? I was on the road in South Florida. Officially, I was there to cover the NASCAR season finale. Well, thats what I told my bosses so theyd pay for my plane ticket. In reality, I was there to sneak up to FI(not A)U. The Golden Panthers, having just hired new head coach Butch Davis, were hosting the Marshall Blundering Herd.As I arrived, Ill admit that I was a bit nervous, and not just because of the tailgaters I saw trying to set a Port-a-John on fire. You see, both FIU and Marshall have been in the Bottom 10 this season. So, would I be greeted with a slap to the face? Two slaps to the face? Would I be thrown out of the press box? Would I be angrily driven out into the middle of the Everglades and dumped overboard where only David Caruso, with his Who soundtrack, might find me?None of that happened. Instead, I was greeted with smiles. I even received one hug. The FIU athletic staff handed me a stat sheet and a free sandwich as a Marshall official said, No, we dont like being on the list. We didnt see that coming this year. But when we get it turned around, you wont see us coming.As we chatted, a TV was on in the corner. On it we saw ... wait. Was that? It couldnt be? ... Yes, Kansas was tearing down a goalpost! The Nayhawks, the odds-on favorite to win the Bottom 10 title with only two games remaining, had just beaten Texas for the first time since 1938.Right on cue, an FIU employee spoke up. I guarantee you no one saw that coming.With apologies to Sonny Crockett and Steve Harvey, heres this weeks Bottom 10.1. Fres-no State (1-10) The good news?

In the past two weeks UTEP has lost to them both. This weekend Texas El Paso hosts North Texas in the Were Both Pretty Bad But Hey Look So Is Texas Bowl, sponsored by the Mack Brown Foundation.

The team also has yet to decide on the future of Doug Berry, who began the season as a consultant to the head coach but took over the offensive co-ordinators duties in July. Cheap Air Max Tn Plus . The judges scored it 48-47, 48-47, 49-46 for Jones (19-1). It was the champions closest call. Despite the loss, it was a remarkable show by the confident Swedish challenger, who had the best of the early rounds and then hung on in the fourth and fifth. While a few metres away Matt Renshaw and Peter Handscomb collected their bags for the very first time as Australian Test cricketers, Callum Ferguson reflected on how he had been picked and discarded in the space of a single week.The scenes at Adelaide Airport - apart from the scuffle between South Africas support staff and an eager television reporter - reflected these strange and tumultuous times for Australian cricket. Handscomb and Matthew Wade arrived from Melbourne a few minutes before Renshaw and Usman Khawaja jetted in from Brisbane.They were accompanied by the South Australian side that failed by 12 balls to eke out a draw against Queensland in the Sheffield Shield match at the Gabba. After the travails of the past two weeks it isnt hard to imagine numerous figures at Cricket Australia hoping the Test team can be that competitive against South Africa this week.The last man out at the Gabba, Chadd Sayers, wandered through the arrivals hall in an Australia team polo Ferguson had donned only a few days before. Though he had every reason to be upset, even bitter about his treatment, Ferguson put on a commendably brave face, befitting the even temperament of a man who has retained his perspective and hunger to perform even in the face of two knee reconstructions.Asked whether he was confused by how he had been dumped so rapidly, Ferguson did not bite: Just disappointed at this stage, as you are whenever you get left out of a team. It is disappointing anytime you get left out of a side, so its back to the drawing board. Make runs for South Australia, win games and hhopefully fight my way back in.dddddddddddd.It was certainly a really exciting week but a disappointing one. We had a really tough week on the field. Im backing the Australian side to bounce back after this, it has been a tough few months but certainly theyve got the quality in the side so I think they can bounce back.The interim selection chairman Trevor Hohns had offered Ferguson a slight glimmer of hope for the future when informing him that his services were no longer required - there has been talk of taking him to India. I spoke to Trevor the other day and he said the door is certainly not shut, he said. Get out there, make runs and certainly youve got an opportunity to get back in there if you do put them on the board.The sheer turnover of Australian players was not lost on Josh Hazlewood, formerly a young bowler in the team yet now one of the more senior members. I think with such a young group, it is exciting, he said. We get to build something together. I think there is not as much pressure because its everyones first game. We need to start from a point moving forward and hopefully this group gets an opportunity to do that, not only in one game but over a period of time.Later in the afternoon, Renshaw trained at Adelaide Oval for the first time, and in practice occupied the first slip post that had until last week belonged to Adam Voges. All connected with Australian cricket, even Ferguson, will hope the revolving door stops here. ' ' '
