College football is here again! Here are a couple from our first game (North Texas at Texas) here in Austin, TX.

Shot with Nikon D70s + Sigma 70-200/2.8 + 2x adaptor.

Next week is a big game when we play Ohio State.

    Very nice shots, were you on the sidelines or shooting from the stand? Just curious.

    P/S - BTW, I'm a husker fan, and would normally root against Texas, BUT since it's Big 12 vs Big 10, I'm all for the Longhorns winning. I think Big 10 teams get too much love and are overrated by the Sportswriters. I must say though, out of all the Big 10 teams, if I had to root for one, it would be ND fighting Irish.

    Very nice shots. I especially like the last one. Great dof...feels like I'm on the field about to get run over. Thanks for sharing.
