The Pam Ward Chronicles roll on for Week 2 of the college football season.  Some interesting games on the docket today including Penn State/Alabama, South Carolina/Georgia, and mediocre teams Notre Dame and Michigan getting the national spotlight under the lights in Ann Arbor for some reason.  Current Pammies leader Pam Ward (who else?) will be at Lexington for Central Michigan/Kentucky at noon on ESPNU.  We will update the Pammies as we can with your comments in the open thread and Tweets to us at AA throughout the day.  Use the hashtag #PWAA to send in submissions via Twitter or leave a comment below.  The nominees will come Monday for you to vote on and the winners will be announced on Wednesday.  You can check out the winners from last week and the full Week 2 announcing schedule below.  Here’s a couple quotes from last night to get us started.
