With the 2008 Season quickly approaching, I’ve been subscribing to various blogs and news sources that focus on our 2008 opponents so I’ll be appropriately prepped.
As a result, we now have an updated “Our Opponents’ Latest News” widget to on the right sidebar. We’ve retasked the robots that race around the set of tubes on the internet consuming and processing humans news about our 2007 opponents to consume and process news about our 2008 opponents.
We also have a brand-new widget, the “Opposition Blog Posts.” For this, we’ve commanded the robots to consume and process the latest posts by the best blogs we could find for each of our 2008 opponents. Currently, we’ve tried to just get one blog per opponent, but as we discover other excellent blogs, we’ll let the robots know about them.
For now, our opponents are represented by:
- Fanblogs – San Diego State (We’d love to hear about a better representative blog.)
- Maize ‘n Brew – Michigan (sucks!)
- The Enlightened Spartan – Michigan State
- Purdue – Um, we’re still looking for a Purdue blog that doesn’t bore us to death.
- Stanford – Yeah, nobody at Stanford cares enough to blog, apparently.
- Tarheel Fan – UNC
- Washington Husky Sports – Washington
- Pitt Blather – Pitt
- Eagle in Atlanta – BC
- The Birddog – Navy
- Orange 44 – Syracuse
- Conquest Chronicles – Southern Cal
So that’s a good start. Hopefully we’ll find an actual Stanford blog that actually blogs about football. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll find a Purdue blog that isn’t boring and isn’t hell-bent on using black as their background color.
Also, if you’d like to simply subscribe to the 2008 Opposition Blog Posts feed, you can do so by following this link.
Hopefully you’ll enjoy reading up on these sites. Many of them are more focused on basketball and hockey right now, but as summer begins to heat up, no doubt so too will the football talk. And that’s what we crave the most this time of year. We crave attention intelligent football talk.
If you’ve got suggestions for excellent Opposition Blogs, let us know, and we’ll be sure to add them (if we agree with you. You might have poor taste).

Niiiiiice.
we have robots? can they do my freaking taxes on turbotax?
Why not MGoBlog instead?
Never heard of ’em.
Try Mountain West Connection for a good source on SDSU. Also, for Syracuse, Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician is a good one as well. And I know we don’t play them, but 11 Warroiors is a great OSU blog and the only acceptable one at that.
