Hey look Ohio State can beat an SEC team in bowl games.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

god OSU got bailed out like 45 times tonight

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>NCAA is apparently investigating Tressel for blackmail.</font>

[ClockShot]

And RichRod gets fired from Michigan. I'd bet top dollar the A.D. was on the phone to Harbaugh the minute the door shut on his office.

Apparently, Phil Fulmer has some interest in the UConn job. I'm all for it.

Looks like Penn State defensive coordinator and Asst Head Coach Tom Bradley is gonna get the Pitt job.


He should have had it 3 weeks ago.




Joe Paterno's got to love it that Bradley's going - that's one less person who has a legitimate claim to be the next head coach instead of Jay Paterno once Joe dies (because apparently the only way Joe leaves the job is feet first.)

[Skippord]

do you think that they'll name the next coach of Penn State like they name the new Pope?

[CSL]

Andrew Luck is a brave boy

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Andrew Luck will be the #1 pick in the 2012 draft. There's no doubt in my mind. 6'4 235 lbs with a great arm. Actually he might even be the #1 pick in next year's draft since he's a red shirt.


I called Luck and asked him to make sure my prediction came true. Thanks Andy!

[James Steele]

He was probably going to be the #1 pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. Harbaugh must be staying for Luck to risk pulling a Leinart.

Auburn 16-11 Oregon, Halftime.

ESPN announcers have been favoring Auburn a lot during their talking and not as much concerning Oregon.

No surprise though since their pre-game stuff leading to the game and the last few days involved mostly SEC people (Meyer, Saban, etc) with the occasional talk of if Oregon can stop Auburn.

[McLegend]

Is Casey Matthews related to Clay Matthews?

[Kris P Lettus]

Yeah..

Won $100 from my buddy who is sitting right here..

Awesome..

Les Miles reportedly will take the Michigan job if he is offered it.


HIT THE FUCKING ASK BUTTON DAVE BRANDON

[James Steele]

:lol:

Les Miles is a fucking dumbass to leave for Michigan. Michigan must be his dream job because that is the only logical reason to leave LSU for Michigan.

<font color=goldenrod>He went to school there.

Most coaches get a boner over the thought of going back to coach your alma mater.</font>

[Vastardikai]

I'll give credit to Oregon for playing their ass off.

Past few years the SEC Title game was competitive while the National Title Game was a blowout. This year it was the opposite. Auburn had to earn this one.

[Kris P Lettus]

Don't think Myles takes the mich job tbh..

[Kris P Lettus]

Told you..

Les Miles turns down Michigan, staying at LSU

Baton Rouge - LSU football Coach Les Miles is staying at LSU, a source at the university said Tuesday.

Miles, the former Wolverines player and assistant coach, turned down an offer to become head coach at his alma mater after meeting with Michigan officials Monday night in Baton Rouge.

Miles has four years remaining on his contract which pays him $3.751 million.

Can't blame Miles for not wanting to leave since the SEC will be guaranteed a spot in the National title game and all he needs to do is manage to win the SEC title for a spot with at least 0-1 losses.

Much easier than to rebuild Michigan, who has to compete with both OSU and a lot of other teams/conferences for the other title spot.

[Splaya]

good comment...

Wolverines get Brady Hoke. Not great, but the defense is already loads better

[Kris P Lettus]

dbl post

[Kris P Lettus]

How is the SEC garanteed a spot in the national championship??

[Emperor Smeat]

Its more of a perception of them actually being guaranteed a spot since ESPN and others have a lot of influence in terms of hype and news even if the computers don't show the SEC deserving of the spot for a particular year. Although to be fair, ESPN does the same with the ACC in basketball even during "down" years with the hype.

Some people were even able to figure out that it was possible for LSU or Auburn to reach the title game even if they didn't win the SEC title (LSU) or had a bad loss in conference (Auburn pre-Bama game).

Even though the NCAA doesn't really control the BCS, they know that a lot of money and hype can be generated if an SEC team is in the title picture. To be fair, all the major bowls favor big name teams and conferences and don't like to give up a spot to a Big East team or ACC team even though they have to by the rules.

[ClockShot]

I guess Miami Offensive Coordinator Mark Whipple is in the final stages of being head coach for UConn.

As long as he doesn't squeeze the charmin, I'm cool with it. Still would have liked Fulmer.
