How do we not have this made yet? COME ON

Anyway the season has started and shit's already getting CRAZY

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Northern Iowa is up on Iowa right now at halftime. Big Ten needs to stop scheduling I-AA opponents.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Lou Holtz just called Charlie Weis the most underrated football coach in the country. Wow

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Greg Paulus putting in work right now for Syracuse against Minnesota. The Carrier Dome is rocking right now, crazy atmosphere. 'Cuse defense is swarming all over the place too

Up 20-14 at the half right now, could have been more don't understand that. They had 3 time-outs and they just let Minnesota run out the clock, guess they wanted to go into the break w/ the momentum and not fuck anything up?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

This OSU game isn't making me feel too good about next weekend. The line isn't holding up against fucking Navy with their 230 lb. linemen. What are they gonna do against USC

[Supreme Olajuwon]

LOL holy shit crazy finish to the Iowa/Northern Iowa game

Down by 1, Northern Iowa kicks a field goal on 1st down with :07 left and Iowa blocks it. But since the ball never crosses the line of scrimmage and Northern Iowa recovered the ball with :01 left, Northern Iowa keeps the ball and gets another chance. But Iowa blocks it again

[Skippord]

does Notre Dame pay Lou Holtz or something, he's said Jimmy Clausen is a heisman candidate and that Notre Dame will play Florida in the national championship game

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Bradford goes down...diagnosed with an AC sprain in his shoulder, an injury that typically keeps you out for a couple of weeks at minimum. I'd like to hear Jim Ross' opinion on the matter.</font>

[Skippord]

also Navy keeping the game with Ohio State so close was a nice surprise

[Supreme Olajuwon]

LET'S GO MORMONS

[Emperor Smeat]

does Notre Dame pay Lou Holtz or something, he's said Jimmy Clausen is a heisman candidate and that Notre Dame will play Florida in the national championship game

He was a former coach for ND and never really had anything bad to say about the club during the Willingham & Weis eras. Probably more excited that ND is finally getting better after their decline a few years ago although Notre Dame does have a decent chance to be in a BCS bowl based on schedule.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Which is ridiculous that they're held to the same standard as non BCS schools and can get to BCS bowls without playing anybody. Whatever though, they're going to get obliterated by USC and will probably get swept by the Michigan schools.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Big Game Bob Stoops better go back to the drawing board.

[Skippord]

pretty stoked that the Mormons beat Oklahoma

I feel like BYU should get an advantage in all of their games being that they don't have any black players

[Emperor Smeat]

Which is ridiculous that they're held to the same standard as non BCS schools and can get to BCS bowls without playing anybody. Whatever though, they're going to get obliterated by USC and will probably get swept by the Michigan schools.

I think Notre Dame's main problem with the schedule is they lock up series vs other teams more than anyone else mainly because of no confrence so in certain years the schedule is too easy while in other years its tougher than others. Every year they are guaranteed to play USC, Michigan, Michigan State, Army, and Navy and they never play a D-1AA school. If they were in a confrence then most of their schedule is taken care of except for a few non-confrence games.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Fantastic Miami/Florida State game</font>

[Boomer]

Yeah best game I saw all week for sure.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Unreal game, can't believe FSU didn't score a TD at the end.

[RP]

Purdues season will be defined this saturday. Do they beat a stunned Oregon team and build on the win and possibly get 8 wins this season, or do they lose the game and pack it in for the rest of the season.

They looked impressive against Toledo. If they beat Oregon, they'll be 3-0 with Notre Dame coming to town. If they pull that upset, they're ranked for sure and they're 6-0 with OSU coming to town.

Gotta beat Oregon first tho. They can do this. That team is stunned still. They got the offense to jump on them.

[BCWWF]

Mizzou stomps Illinois (again) to start the season.

USC!!

[Droford]

So much for Notre Dame playing in the Title game.

Also, I'll take Ohio State over USC.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>LOL Notre Dame. Suck it, Catholic America's Team</font>

So I heard something on sports talk radio this week about Terrell Pryor saying something like "everybody murders people" while defending Michael Vick..

If so, he is an idiot..

Also, even though I'm not a OSU fan, I do love me some Cameron Heyward..

I heard that too. The guys on the show were asking each caller when was the last time they murdered someone.

[Kris P Lettus]

I heard it on WWL (local NOLA news/sports radio station) and "The Cajun Cannon" Bobby Hebert was going off about it..

[Triple Naitch]

Definitely worse than Clinton Portis saying it was just dawgs.

Mind ya bidnis.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Ohio State D playing real well right now, especially the front 4. This game is a lot better than I thought

[D Mac]

Sweet, Missouri comes back down 20 - 6 to win the game. :cool:

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>If he gets 5 more rushing TDs, Tebow becomes the all time SEC leader, passing Herschel Walker</font> :|

[Kris P Lettus]

A sad day indeed..

[Reavant]

Definitely worse than Clinton Portis saying it was just dawgs.

they were just dogs... vick got 2 years for dogs and stallworth got 1 month for killing a human

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

and Plaxico got 2 years for killing no one and shooting himself.

HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!!!!!

[Reavant]

exactly haha

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

<font color=goldenrod>If he gets 5 more rushing TDs, Tebow becomes the all time SEC leader, passing Herschel Walker</font> :|Makes sense, if everything plays out the its predicted Tebow is probably going to go down as one of, if not the most, heralded college football of all time.

Kevin Faulk is pretty high up on that SEC list I think or maybe it's the total yardage list. Don't sleep

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Just looked it up. Faulk is 3rd. Kinda weird seeing him on the list next to Herschel Walker, Bo Jackson, and Shaun Alexander.

[Kris P Lettus]

Man, Boisie vs Fresno is crazy..

[Kris P Lettus]

LMFAO At the Bama turnover on the first play from scrimmage..

Fuck Bama..

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Wow, what a retarded throw by the Michigan State QB</font>

[DAMN iNATOR]

Wow, what a retarded throw by the Michigan State QB

Yeah, I dunno if it was Keith Nichol or Kirk Cousins that got us screwed over, but it really pissed me off. Should've played it safe and seen what a run play would get us (yeah, I know, no guarantee the ball carrier wouldn't have fumbled the ball or w/e but still), and if it hadn't been enough for a 1st, then we'd've still had a shot to tie the game with a FG if all else had failed, and try to force OT, but NOOOOO, our QB makes a stupid throw, and thus we're now 1-2 on the season.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Heisman dark horse this season is Tony Pike, QB for Cincinnati. Watch for this guy. He's nasty.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Good bye BYU & Utah's hopes for the BCS, knew some of these non-BCS teams would be dropping already

USC on track to play in the Rose Bowl once again but not the National Championship, seems like this happens every year?

[Skippord]

USC chokes in one game every year

it's awfully weird

[Emperor Smeat]

PAC-10 is too weak for them to be a top 2 BCS team unless they have everyone else ranked above them lose at least 1-2 times this season.

Utah and non-BCS teams are never going to get anything more than a symbolic gesture in high rankings since a Utah or Boise State in a title game means BCS conferences have to split BCS bowl money with non-member conferences. Utah only got #2 last year because the bowls were already over and because Texas almost lost to Ohio State.

[Kris P Lettus]

Heisman dark horse this season is Tony Pike, QB for Cincinnati. Watch for this guy. He's nasty.

Jevon Sneed

[Reavant]

If anyone thinks tebow isnt getting the heisman this year your on something.... and i dont even like the guy

[Skippord]

Jahvid Best

[Supreme Olajuwon]

You people clearly don't understand what a darkhorse is. But thank you for mentioning the Heisman frontrunners. That really helped.

[Skippord]

oh I just wanted to say Jahvid Best. did not read anything else in here

it's a fun name

[Kris P Lettus]

Is Sneed really a "front runner"??

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Yeah man. He's the star player on a preseason top 10 team and he's nationally known. That makes him at least a very good candidate.

Cincy wasn't ranked to start the season and nobody really knows anything about them. But they've beaten 2 BCS schools on the road and now they're starting to get press.

[Kris P Lettus]

Steve Spurrier got in a load of shit when he picked Sneed for the All SEC team over Teebow..

:dunno:

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Ok but come on that's Tim Tebow. Just because Michael Jordan won more MVPs than Charles Barkley doesn't mean Barkley was not a great player.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Steve Spurrier got in a load of shit when he picked Sneed for the All SEC team over Teebow..

:dunno:

LOL are you fucking kidding me? You can't be serious with this line of thinking, you really can't

For a darkhorse how about the QB from Houston, Case Keenum? He had a huge year last year and now his team is trying to be the BCS buster. If they stay undefeated I think he will be invited for the ceremony at least.

[Skippord]

I think Kellen Moore at Boise's pretty good

[Skippord]

Bummer times for Ole Miss

[Emperor Smeat]

Ole Miss was over-ranked. No way they are a legit #4 team when you consider which teams were below them in the Top 10/Top 25. Not saying they aren't a good team but over-ranked due to the perception of the SEC and their good QB they have.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I dunno I mean the only reason they got as high as they did is because a bunch of top 10 teams lost already. Plus it's always hard to win conference games on the road.

[RP]

IU just got robbed at a chance to beat Michigan. They were down 3 points with the ball. Throw the ball and its caught by both the reciever and the cornerback and they both hit the ground. The rules are pretty clear. If both players have possession when they hit the ground, its offense ball. The refs called it an interception. They reviewed it and refused to overturn it. Michigan ball. Ball game.

I'm sorry, i know its a great story to see Michigan be a fantastic team again, but that was way to obvious. The refs stole the game. If you have a fucking system set up where a college team like IU has literally no shot a BCS bowl game unless they go undefeated or win there conference and you have refs who either a) dont know the rules of the game or B) are robbing IU with a terrible call on purpous ( which looked like it to me ), then IU has no shot in hell at ever competing in college football. End of story.

[RP]

And i love ESPN too. They act like they didnt see a thing. Good job ESPN.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I think it was an non-reviewable play. Still a bunch of bullshit though. How do you get simultaneous possession wrong?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Fuck it, change the rules. Simultaneous possession will now be decided by the faster player on offense and the fastest player on defense running towards the ball in a scramble. Nobody has ever done this before...</font>

:shifty:

[Droford]

Oregon is kicking Cal's ass. Also, so much for Miami being back this year as well.

And I cant wait for Tebow to give everyone swine flu...

[Droford]

31-0 Florida after 15 minutes.

Kentucky sucks

[Triple Naitch]

Damn, how hard did Tebow get hit? They took him to the hospital.

[Droford]

Damn, how hard did Tebow get hit? They took him to the hospital.
It was pretty nasty hit, BUT I think it was worse considering he was playing with the flu and he was barfing in that red plastic bag on the cart out.

[Loose Cannon]

Jimmy Clausen is a stud right now

[Loose Cannon]

IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>UGH fuck Notre Dame</font>

[Droford]

so #'s 4,5,6 and 9 lost and #7 needed a goaline stand to win.

#8 Boise St should be in the top 5 in the next poll.

Probably be Florida,Texas,Alabama,Virgina Tech,Boise St,LSU Top 6

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

It was pretty nasty hit, BUT I think it was worse considering he was playing with the flu and he was barfing in that red plastic bag on the cart out.I don't think the flu had anything to do with it. He was throwing up from the concussion, he was knocked out cold. It was one of the most violent hits I've ever seen. He took one right under the chin then on the way down an offensive linemen accidentally drove his knee right into the back of his head. I really cant think of anything else to describe it other than violent

[Emperor Smeat]

No clue why Florida even had him out there by the time the hit occurred since they already had destroyed Kentucky. I think Meyer wanted to embarrass Kentucky to prove that Tennessee wasn't a tough game and continue saying it was the flu that made them play bad last week

[Fignuts]

lol Perdue hands notre dame the game with that timeout.

[RP]

Yah Purdue is pretty much that team that comes close but no cigar, every single game.

[RP]

I think it was an non-reviewable play. Still a bunch of bullshit though. How do you get simultaneous possession wrong?

It's disgusting really. I'm not even a huge IU fan. I just watched cause i knew IU had a decent team. There was no evidence to say that IU wouldnt have tied that game. To get that call wrong is basically robbery. And ofcourse as you notice, ESPN completely erased that play from there memories in every article about Michigan. Thats sad. Its kinda proof that no lower tier team will ever be able to break through. Way too much money involved for a cinderella to have its day.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Well Michigan didn't get too much of a bump in the rankings at least this week. I think they lose to State this week

Also Surpreme good call on Pike as a dark horse for the Heisman, Cincy just hit the top 10 for the first time ever.

[Kris P Lettus]

I dunno I mean the only reason they got as high as they did is because a bunch of top 10 teams lost already. Plus it's always hard to win conference games on the road.

Pretty much it.. They came into the season in the top ten cause of their win over Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl last year.. SEC road games are always hard but Snead played like shit.. D looked pretty good and Dexter McCluster is the fucking man..

I feel really bad for that USC RB who dropped a weight on his throat..

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Stefon Johnson is the back, that's pretty crazy what happened - such a freak accident. I wonder how much it was? Those dudes can toss around some serious weight with ease, was probably a lot. He still can't even talk right now but I've read he's doing better which is good.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

On a lighter note, watch this haha

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Cincy plays Miami OH this week who are giving up 41 pts a game on defense. Should be a shit show.

Really wish OSU and Cincy would start scheduling each other regularly. The problem has always been that Cincy wants a home and home and OSU doesn't want to give it to them. That should probably change though.

[Nervous Ferret]

I BELIEVE I read he was benching 275 at the time. Too lazy to look now though. Pretty unreal

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

USC is gonna rally around this so hard now though, gonna destory Cal this weekend. I'm seeing a massacre

[Skippord]

Didn't Pike play last year with a broken arm or something?

I thought I heard something like that

[Supreme Olajuwon]

He broke it but I dunno if he played while it was broken.

[Droford]

Just heard about the Yankee Bowl at New Yankee Stadium between the Big East #3/4 and the Big 12 #7 (or Notre Dame) starting next year. Another bowl game between teams with records close to .500..ugh

[McLegend]

Jimmy Clausen is pretty good

[Loose Cannon]

he's a fricken studddd.


another comeback win. it's going to catch up with them soon

[Loose Cannon]

Just heard about the Yankee Bowl at New Yankee Stadium between the Big East #3/4 and the Big 12 #7 (or Notre Dame) starting next year. Another bowl game between teams with records close to .500..ugh

would love to watch ND play at the Stadium.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

NCAA declared OK St. WR Dez Bryant is ineligible for the rest of the season because he lied about hanging out with Deion Sanders.

Cowboys are fucked now. Thought they might have a chance to beat Oklahoma this year but not now.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

So stupid. The NCAA is a fucking joke and has no control over so many things going in the world of big time college football. Then a guy lies about eating dinner at Deion Sanders house and he gets suspended.

[Emperor Smeat]

Not to mention they are very inconsistent on who or which schools gets punished. I think USC still hasn't been disciplined for the Reggie Bush/OJ Mayo issues. Kevin Sampson gets banned for coaching for about 5 years while John Calipari gets away with his infractions and Memphis U suffered.

[ddpBANG]

WOOO Oregon! That's how you start a 2nd half.

[Kris P Lettus]

Come the fuck on Snead..

He has looked like shit since the SC game..

Fuck Bama..

[ClockShot]

Jesus. Uconn can't even beat Pitt in football.

Damn you, Wannstedt!

[Kris P Lettus]

:(

Ole Miss' D is STOUT but Snead has been playing horrible..

[Droford]

Im calling LSU beating Florida by at least 2 TDs.

[Kris P Lettus]

HUGE hype down here in NOLA about this game.. I am at my dad's ATM cooking chicken livers and sausage..

[Droford]

Even at 3-3 its been a hell of a game.

[Kris P Lettus]

Shitty offsides calls..

Also, that TD was def offensive pass interference..

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Florida's defense is absurd. The look on LSU's QB's face is great. Just like what the fuck am I supposed to do now.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Also dunno if I mentioned this before but Urban Meyer used to be the D Coordinator at my high school. What's up gangstaaaas

[Droford]

That SEC commercial that lists all the great things SEC schools are doing is awesome.

University of Mississippi: Developing New Treatments for Cancer and Malaria
Universsity of Tennessee: Home of the World's Most Powerful Academic Super Computer
Vanderbilt University: Building the Bionic Arm of the Future
University of Arkansas: Invented the Wide Angle Bar Code Reader (?)

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Didn't expect Tulsa to give Boise State much of a game last night but they did.


Cincy @ South Florida tonight should be good.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

lol Lou Holtz getting pissed because Mark May's laughing at him for saying Notre Dame's gonna beat USC this year

can't believe ESPN feels this guy deserves a paycheck

[McLegend]

Lou Holtz can do what he wants.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

USF was supposed to have this ridiculous defense and then they give up 132 yards rushing and 2 TDs in one half to UC's backup QB. Come on now.

[BCWWF]

Lou Holtz needs to lay off the tanning bed

[Skippord]

how long is Pike gonna be out?

[Loose Cannon]

it would be imense if the Irish could pull this off today. Clausen for Heisman

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I think Pike's out for the next game.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I dunno who to root for in this Texas/Oklahoma game. I want Texas to lose so OSU and UC can move up in the rankings, but I hate Oklahoma so much. Also if I had to pick between Texas and an SEC school winning the BCS championship, I'd probably pick Texas.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

If Ohio State even wins today, that is. This offense is pretty mediocre.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

lol Buckeyes are getting dominated by a 1-5 team. 5 turnovers and it's still the 3rd Quarter

[Loose Cannon]

unfucking believable

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Can't believe ND even made it a game w/ USC. USC made so many mistakes, got real lucky today.

Florida escaped today too, I want to see UF/USC National Championship.

[RP]

FUCKING YES PURDUE. WAY TO FUCKING GO.

If i cant have a National Championship, or a BCS Bow in , or a Big Ten title, the thing i wanted most was a win over OSU. Great fucking job Purdue. No one will give them the credit they deserve cause everyone is on the Terrible Prior argument, but Prior ran the ball 21 times and only averaged 1 yard a carry. The Boilermakers defense stepped up huge. I hope we can run the table and get into a bowl game.

[RP]

lol Buckeyes are getting dominated by a 1-5 team. 5 turnovers and it's still the 3rd Quarter

Purdue came within a 2 point conversion of tieing the game against Oregon. They lost to Notre Dame by a FG. This is really good team. Purdue is a 8-4 team that's been stung with some tough losses. They could have packed it in against OSU but they didnt. Biggest win since Brees beat #4 K- State in the Alamo bowl.

The 1998 edition to the Alamo Bowl featured the Kansas State Wildcats, and the Purdue Boilermakers.

The Wildcats came into the game fresh off a double over-time loss in the Big 12 Championship Game to the Texas A&M Aggies, which ruined their chance at National Championship in the Fiesta Bowl. With an experienced quarterback, Michael Bishop, the Heisman Trophy runner-up, and one of the best offenses and defenses in the country, the Wildcats were generally expected to have an easy bowl victory.

The Wildcats finished with a #3 ranking in the BCS and thought they deserved to play in one of the BCS Bowl games. Feeling out of place in the Alamo Bowl,[citation needed] Kansas State was unable to overcome the unranked Purdue Boilermakers, who drove 80 yards for a touchdown in the final minute to shock Kansas State 37-34.

After this season, the "Kansas State Rule" was created, making the #3 spot an automatic bid. Kansas State would finish ranked #6 in the BCS the following season, only to be left out of the BCS once again.

The win was selected as the second best win for Purdue during the Joe Tiller Era by noted Purdue blog Off the Tracks

[Skippord]

FUCKING YES PURDUE. WAY TO FUCKING GO.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Going to be "make or break" for TCU pretty soon when they go up against BYU. I would like to see two non-BCS teams make it but that's highly unlikely. Probably going to be Boise State this year.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Ohio State's computer average was 32nd, but the Harris and USA Today polls have them 17th.

Pretty surprised Boise State is so high. Not that they don't deserve it but usually the BCS Busters get shafted.

[Droford]

Im rooting for Iowa/Cincinatti Championship game but it'll never happen. I do figure they leapfrog Boise State eventually just based on strength of schedule.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

If Weis gets run this year Brian Kelly is going to get a massive contract from Notre Dame.

[redoneja]

So fucking glad that Virginia Tech lost. Even though I'm a Gators fan, I'd rather see VATech lose than UF win.

[Skippord]

I feel like Bama should be number 1

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Should be interesting to see what happens if it comes down to an undefeated Big East team and a 1 loss SEC team, Big 12 team, or USC for the BCS title game. Cause it's one thing to say that an undefeated non-BCS team can't get in, but the Big East is a BCS conference. If a BCS team can't run the table and play for a national title, what's the point of having BCS conferences?

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Now that I think of it, I dunno if Iowa runs the table and gets in the title game either. If that happened you could pretty much see the downfall of the BCS coming. Even if the Big Ten has been weak, they still have a ton of stroke.

[Emperor Smeat]

A couple of years ago when West Virginia and UConn/USF was undefeated late into the season, there was a concern about a Big East team in the title game but the BCS poll had them ranked in the Top 2. ESPN and others were happy once both Big East teams fell out since it allowed the SEC v Big 10/12/USC game to occur for ratings purposes.

Same with the ACC outside of Miami U/FSU/V Tech in that its a BCS conference but realistically nobody wants them in a title game. Utah only got a #2 last year because all the games were done and it guaranteed a symbolic ranking while making sure Utah couldn't play in the title game.

[Emperor Smeat]

I think this year or next year is 1st year ESPN takes over coverage of BCS Bowls and just so happened they stopped talking about the need or the debate over the playoffs in college football. They don't want the NCAA to get upset and maybe cancel the contract.

[RoXer]

U of A should not be ranked 22

They shouldn't even be in the top 35

[Emperor Smeat]

Apparently SEC suspends the ref crew from Arkansas-Florida for 1 week minimum and then won't get any top quality games till mid-November. Supposedly ESPN had an article stating the ref crew was meant to have their scheduled week break this weekend so the punishment isn't really much of a punishment besides the no top games allowed.

Wish this scenario plays out just to see what happens. Unfortunately I don't see it happening.

[Nervous Ferret]

^Been thinking about that too. I feel like if Texas runs the table as well as Cincinnati/Iowa that 1 loss SEC team/USC would play in the national title game. I don't hate the BCS but if an undefeated BCS school were to not get in over a 1 loss team it would really, really suck. Kinda completely ruins everything

[Supreme Olajuwon]

It's already ridiculous enough that Boise State could have their 3rd undefeated regular season in 4 years and still not be considered for the title game. There's even talk that if Oregon wins the Pac 10 they'd have a better shot of making the game even after they lost to Boise State.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Well, looks like my prediction, previously seen here, didn't quite work out. But now we must look ahead to Minnesota next week.

[ClockShot]

UConn....:'(

Moreso the QB's fault for throwing 3 picks.

[Shadow]

UConn almost had it in the bag till Devine pulled a mirical run.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

UNC 16 point underdogs tomorrow vs. Va. Tech

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Just heard a radio ad for UC football to come watch the Bearcats euthanize the UConn Huskies.

HOW BOUT A LITTLE SENSITIVITY, BRO

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Hearing rumors of Oregon going with the "black out" Saturday night vs USC. School officials aren't allowing them to call it that though because they feel it's racist. When I think black out I think of drinking large amounts of alcohol, not black people.

Hopefully Oregon rocks completely black uniforms, they had the black helmets last week.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Man, Big Ten refs must really hate Indiana. Screwed them in the Michigan game and now they're doing everything humanly possibly to make them lose to Iowa.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Poor UConn</font> :(

[ClockShot]

Yeah man, they gotta get it together. I didn't think it would be this bad.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

People were calling Florida a soft #1 all week because their last 3 games weren't blowouts, but they are stomping Georgia like the JV team.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Some crazy high scoring games today. Florida St. beat NC St. 45-42, Houston beat So. Miss 50-43, and North Texas is currently up on Western Kentucky 56-49.

[Droford]

If USC loses, is it safe to say we wont have to hear about them being in title contention even if everyone else loses at least once?

[Emperor Smeat]

Yeup, I think in the minds of the voters its something like SEC, Big 12, Big 10, Pac-10, ACC, Big East, then everyone else for conference rankings. Since last few years for no real reason except it was done was to ensure 1 SEC team gets to be in the title game.

So if USC looses 2 times in a conference that's been hyped as USC's to always win, its going to hurt them more in perception.

[Skippord]

People were calling Florida a soft #1 all week because their last 3 games weren't blowouts, but they are stomping Georgia like the JV team.
Georgia pretty much is the JV team

[Skippord]

Texas for #1

[RP]

Man, Big Ten refs must really hate Indiana. Screwed them in the Michigan game and now they're doing everything humanly possibly to make them lose to Iowa.

Yah its wonderful isnt it? Honestly, I think College Football is rigged. I've thought this for a while. And watching whats happened to Indiana this season just reinforces it. It's clear that the Big Ten did not want Indiana winning the Michigan game when Michigan was the talk of the conference and now Iowa is the talk of the conference and they didnt want IU winning that one either.

And for people that are like " No way they can rig college football, they'd get investigated!!! "... See the Bowl Championship Series. Nuff said.

[RP]

College Football is slowly killing themselves anyways. I listen to a ton of talk radio and i read all the articles and what not. This time 3 or 4 years ago, having 5 undefeateds would be a major conversation. It would be a bigger deal then the beginning of the NFL season. Who gets a bid, who doesnt. Who's gunna get screwed and what not. But now, no one really cares. Everyone on radio and sportswriters and such, all know what the National Championship will be. It's gunna be some form of Texas/ Florida/ Alabama. It's been decided for the last 5 weeks now. No one cares anymore. I dont even watch. Money has sucked the life and legitimacy out of College Football.

[RP]

And trust me, Alabama is sitting in the top 3 thinking they are in perfect position, but when it comes down to Bama vs Florida in the SEC title game and the chance to go to the National Championship against Texas ( which is the most likely scenario ), the powers that be in College Football will make sure Tim Tebow gets into that National Title game. You'd be a fool to think not.

[Emperor Smeat]

I think what is hurting the most has been the recent thinking of every BSC title game must include a SEC team going back the last 3 out of 4 teams when before it was the top 2 teams regardless of conference. It limits the possibilities of potential match ups to just a OSU/Florida/USC/Texas/LSU instead of the usual 2-3 potential teams from each conference.

I would also blame ESPN's growing influence over the BSC since they can devout 24/7 coverage on tv and influence the rankings in the voters minds.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

The SEC isn't even that good this year. It has 3 good teams, and I'm not convinced LSU is that good. If they are, they haven't proven it. But look at the conference breakdown of the BCS standings:

Big Ten: 4 teams
Pac 10: 4 teams
Big East: 3 teams
ACC: 3 teams
Big 12: 3 teams
SEC: 3 teams

Where's this SEC dominance that everyone is talking about?

[Emperor Smeat]

Its all about perception, usually the SEC has problems with creating an undefeated team or 1-loss team since they tend to beat each other up during the season. Last 3-4 years that hasn't occurred and since during that time an SEC has won the title, people assume SEC must be the best (also based on past history). SEC also managed to market themselves as best conference in college football to help with their dominance perception.

USC also gets this perception when they are undefeated or have 1 loss since ESPN and others hype them up as best team ever or #1.

[redoneja]

Where's this SEC dominance that everyone is talking about?


I guess it usually comes out in Jan when an SEC team beats Ohio State.

Also, I tend to see the Pac-10, SEC, and Big 10 as the best conferences in college football right now. I think the Big 12 is highly overrated and the Big East and ACC are just weak overall.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I can't tell if you're trying to be funny or not, but it brings up the point that most people think the SEC is dominant because they have a good track record and because they have a couple good teams this year. However as we can clearly see, unless you're retarded, the SEC is no more dominant than any other conference this year.

[redoneja]

Nah, it's just a shot at Ohio State, who I don't really care for.

And no, the SEC isn't more dominant than any other conference this year. Like I said, I think as a whole they are in the top 3 with the Pac-10 and Big 10. Next would probably be the Big 12, then the ACC and the Big East.

[redoneja]

And I'll go even further to say that the Pac-10 and Big 10 are underrated this year and have been consistently for the last couple years.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Can Boise State play in the National Title game for once?

[Skippord]

Boise's never gonna get into the Title game

sucks cause they're the team I support most.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

What really sucks for them is eventually the system is going to change and they'll be one of the biggest reasons why, but by then Chris Peterson will be long gone and they won't come anywhere close again.

[Skippord]

Brandon Spikes suspended for the first half of Florida's game against Vandy for a blatant eye gouge

seems fair

[Supreme Olajuwon]

That shit happens all the time in loose ball scrums. He got caught. I'm fine with it.

[Skippord]

it wasn't a loose ball scrum though

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Iowa losing in the 4th quarter again. Eventually they won't be able to come back and win.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

BCS lovers everywhere rejoice

[RP]

Haha Boilermakers beat Michigan!

Also, is there any doubt that the BCS Championship game will be Florida/Alabama vs Texas? Boring

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Buckeyes put a whooping on Penn State tonight. Glad to see Pryor stepping up in a big game.

Next week vs. Iowa at the Shoe. Winner gets the BCS bid. Iowa probably won't have their QB. EXCITING

[Supreme Olajuwon]

WOW can't believe LSU didn't get that interception call. Looked like a pretty clean INT to me.

[Emperor Smeat]

Yeah SEC officiating has been a mess this year, too many blown calls in key games. ESPN was happy though Alabama won since they had previews and stats ready on ESPN News showcasing the SEC title game and saying it guaranteed a spot in BCS bowl.

Had Oregon not lost today, they were still set to leap-frog Boise State in the rankings this week.

[ClockShot]

Uconn falls short. Again.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Apparently this is Ohio week on the ESPN networks. Ohio vs. Buffalo was on last night, Toledo vs. Central Michigan tonight, Bowling Green vs. Miami (OH) tomorrow, Cincinnati vs. West Virginia Friday, Ohio State vs. Iowa Saturday

then we've got the Bengals vs. Steelers on Sunday and Browns vs. Ravens on Monday

that's too much Buckeye state for any man to handle

Where's this SEC dominance that everyone is talking about?Might not have the best teams but the SEC is stacked with NFL talent. That's what people see.

I'm also curious to see what 3 teams out of the ACC you consider good? I've seen most of them play and they all seem to be hit or miss - I wouldn't really consider any of them BCS worthy (obviously 1 of them has to be but you get my point)

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

One more thing, can't believe RP claimed that "college football is slowly killing itself" - that is some type of joke, right?

That's not me, that's the BCS top 25. I was just breaking it down by conference.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

My fault, misread that.

Georgia Tech is good, but I don't think they are BCS good.

[Emperor Smeat]

College Football is weird in how they allow a D-1A school to play D-1AA and count the wins but won't count them for Bowl eligibility. Defeats the purpose of having those games besides for the usual cupcake guarantee and record padding.

If you lose to a D-1AA, then your guaranteed almost no major bowl appearance (like Michigan a few years ago) but if you win it counts as a non-conference win in case of a tie in records. A few schools this year might not end up in bowls because they won their D-1AA game but were average in the season.

[Loose Cannon]

god, Notre Dame is so frustrating to watch. Once again playing from behind.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I thought that was a fumble by Clausen, his hand was empty coming forward.

TCU smashed Utah and that is why I do not gamble. Utah was a 20 point underdog, I would have bet the house that Utah was gonna cover that

[Nervous Ferret]

Clemson has all but clinched a rematch in the ACC title game vs. Georgia Tech. The first game was sick, Ga Tech (at home) had a 24-0 only for Clemson to take the lead at 27-24 in the 4th quarter. Then gay ass Ga Tech kicked 2 late fgs and won a heartbreaker. And Clemson came pretty damn close to beating TCU too. Both awful losses. Third loss was awful as well but it was to Maryland so I dunno. Pretty terrible team to lose to.

Orange Bowl vs. Cincinnati? Would be pretty serious. I'm also not sure if C.J Spiller is going to, or deserves to win the Heisman. But he has to be on everybody's top 5 list at least. Dude is more ridiculous than ever this year. He threw, ran, and caught a touchdown this past weekend. He has 8 touchdowns this season of 50 yards or more. Almost every single game he has some ridiculous touchdown where he just outruns eveybody

Can't believe BC is even in the discussion for the ACC title game. If Clemson loses and BC wins this week, they would be in. I mean that's not gonna happen but still pretty wild, considering BC was the "throw-in" w/ Va Tech and Miami but they've been in the ACC Championship game the last 2 years.

Going to the game on Saturday though :cool: Sneaking in a bottle of Captain Mo!!!!!!

[DAMN iNATOR]

Here's hoping my Spartans pull off a huge upset win over the Nittany Lions in E.L. today. It would place us probably in a slightly better bowl than where we would be if we ended up 6-6 with a loss today, and would also pretty much ensure no BCS bid for Penn St.

Love that UConn/Notre Dame is the leading story on ESPN.com. It's not like there are any rivalry games this weekend or anything...

That's not my Ohio State homerism talking either. Cal/Stanford is actually relevant this year. Should be hyping it, but they're not because the game's not on ESPN.

[Droford]

Alabamas getting it handed to them early by Auburn, 14-0.

So, Alabama loses and then its Florida/Texas 1-2 in the BCS. What happens if Florida loses to Alabama in the SEC Title Game? Texas would be #1 as long as they win their Title game, but then you've got 1 loss Alabama probably wanting a piece of the action but Undefeated TCU and Cincy possibly. The BCS certainly doesnt want Alabama to lose this game..

[Emperor Smeat]

Its probably already set in stone for SEC champion vs Texas because of how all those different polls and data is done. BCS won't allow TCU to be a #1 or #2 in the current format unless its the post-BCS poll for symbolic purposes like Utah last year.

[owenbrown]

ah the giant clusterfuck that is the BCS

[RoXer]

I'm glad U of A won but I just wanna give Kyle Williams a big hug.

Poor guy. :-(

[redoneja]

Two midlevel SEC teams beat the ACC championship contenders today.

And Toby Gerhart proved he should be a Heisman finalist. What a game for him.

[Emperor Smeat]

New York Daily News is reporting Weis fired from Notre Dame but won't announce it until after players meeting to see if ND should accept the offer to play in a low-tier bowl.

Weis expected to go back to the NFL as an offense coordinator with 6 teams interested.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

If Bob Stoops or Urban Meyer wanted the job, this would be the ideal time to take it for both. Stoops is having a crappy year and Meyer is going to have a way different team next year with Tebow gone. Doubt either will take it. Probably going to go with Brian Kelly.

[ClockShot]

What took Notre Dame so long to fire him?

You'd think the game against Uconn would do it.

Some NFL team with a lousy offense will pick him up. That is his calling.

[Emperor Smeat]

I don't think Notre Dame has ever fired anyone before the season ended (not including a bowl since that's post-season). Even Willingham got the chance to end the season, then got fired before a bowl.

Notre Dame needs to do what Miami U did for coaching and just give the new coach 3-4 years of development with no questions asked or else same thing is going to occur that occurred with the last 3 coaches. It might have hurt Miami U's reputation as a power for those few years but they got back to being really good this year.

[BCWWF]

ESPN terribly shaped this story to fit a more dramatic angle. The local reports made it pretty clear that Clausen was not attacked by a rabid football fan, but ESPN never changed their report by one of their own reporters.

Oregon hasn't seen anything like Ohio State's defense this season. Should be a good game.

[Nervous Ferret]

Yeah really pumped for Oregon/Ohio St. Oregon is such a fun team to like. I do think they will beat Ohio State but it should be a great game. I totally expect Clemson to fall behind 2+ scores before halftime tomorrow. Whether they come out in the second half fist pumping like champs or if Ga Tech will just run all over them again is up to Dabo though

Would love to go to a Clemson/Cincy Orange Bowl. Cincinnati is pretty dirty though, would def blow them out. Otherwise Clemson is looking at another Chik fil-a bowl, or the Champ Sports Bowl ugh

Yea, the Cincy/Pitt game is on par with the Oregon/Oregon St game Thursday night. Two incredible championship games. I hope the ACC, SEC, and Big 12 games deliver as well. Really nervous about Florida beating Bama. Really hoping the Gators can pull it out. I'd like to see Nebraska beat Texas in the Big 12 game. Don't really care about the Clemson/GaTech game, I'm just glad Virginia Tech isn't in the ACC title game with a chance to play at the Rose Bowl.

Holy fuck, Pitt scored a TD but botched the PAT. Only a 6 point game with 1:36 left. That's a lifetime in college, with the clock stopping each time the offense gets a 1st down.

[Nervous Ferret]

oh shit @ missed PAT :o

I can't help but feel like Cincy is going to pull this out

[Nervous Ferret]

wowwwwwwwwwww Pike :heart:

[McLegend]

Wow

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah, Cincy scoring was especially obvious after the PAT fuckup, stuff like that will ultimately be what costs you the game 9 times out of 10.

Crazy game.</font>

Game of the year. No question. Feel awful for those Pitt kids though.

Yea, that sums up what I hope happens.

Crazy Cincy-Pitt game, looked like Pitt would end up winning and be another BCS buster like they did with West Virginia a few years ago but Cincy came back huge.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Florida's rockin the white lids. Nice

[Nervous Ferret]

I don't even mind Alabama that much anymore. Def take them over Florida every time. I am hoping for a big Nebraska upset too just to send this all to heck!

[redoneja]

Can't get over how good the Cincy/Pitt game was.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Nick Saban is the only coach I've ever seen look at the camera during interviews.

[Nervous Ferret]

Hope Mountain Cody sits on Tim Tebow

[Anybody Thrilla]

FUCK YES BEARCATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a inside source that says Stoops is taking the job

[Emperor Smeat]

ESPN News literally did almost a 5 minute highlight of Alabama-Florida game and the 4th Quarter just started when it finished.

Longest non-title game highlight they have done for a regular season game in any sport I believe.

LOL part was how depressed the highlight sounded because Tebow and Florida was struggling.

[redoneja]

Wow Florida's gonna lose. Not "crushed" as I kinda expected this. Plus I've been more invested in Oregon this year. So whatever.
