Anybody that knows me knows why I am posting this, Missouri has emerged as a huge darkhorse and there is huge potential for us this season. A lot of places are predicting us to win the Big XII North, which would pit us probably against Oklahoma in the championship game, which is in Kansas City! Even thought we would probably lose we would still likely go to the Cotton Bowl, which is pretty good. Brad Smith is a darkhorse Heisman candidate, is one of the best offensive threats out there. Our biggest rival is going to be K-State, who we play at home, hopefully Nebraska won't upset us though.

Also, I think Minnesota will do a lot better then people think. They are rated like 23 in most places, but I could see them upsetting some of the bigger Big 10 teams and getting as high as third in that league. We'll all see.

What are you guys looking forward to this year?

I cant wait for opening night. Watching Va Tech getting lit up by USC. I am not a USC fan at all but I post at another sports message board with a ton of Virgina Tech dickriders so I can't wait to see them get lit up.

I am hoping BC will pull through and win the Big East. I am not banking on it even with Miami gone because its still going to be tough. West Virgina has looked pretty serious the last 2 seasons and UConn is suppose to be really improved this year.

ACC should be pretty crazy this year, with Miami and FSU..Will be intresting to see if FSU can finally beat Miami after coming so close the last few years.

Another thing I can't wait for is Michigan Ohio State..that shit is nuts

I am pretty pumped for Florida State/Miami, hopefully FSU will be able to take them this time though. :mad:

Miami has got another typical Miami back though. I was never really impressed with Frank Gore but now they got Tyrone Moss (I think thats his name) taking over full time after seeing a little time last year as a true freshman

FSU still has Rix right? Never been a huge fan of him, but he does show up sometimes, seems pretty inconsistent even though he has been starting for a longtime

Rix is shit

Yeah, Rix is shit. According to some things I've seen Miami doesn't have great expectations this year, not even BCS. The new ACC is shit, I hate it, but its going to be amazingly strong. I'm excited for Duke to play Miami or something.

Also this could be a good place to bring up the Mike Williams thing. He was denied back into USC today, and I think thats shitty. In my opinion, the NFL should have let Clarett and those other guys in, because they had already given up their eligability and whatnot, and then changed it next year. It Clarett wasn't good enough, then he wasn't good enough, but now Williams is fucked over. I understand that he took a bunch of money and shit, but did he ever give it back? Also I assume he was practicing with the team, how shitty would that be to all of a sudden find out you can't play a few days before the season starts. I think he should have been let back in, nothing personal, just based on the principle of what happened.

Wait, you're excited about Duke/Miami? We're talking about football right? Duke is one of the worst 10 teams in the country

Duke sucks, Rix is very inconsistent.

I like Notre Dame, I want them to return to a competitive level. :(

I really want to see LSU bomb, since all the fucking bandwagon fans sprout up after they win. :mad:

It was a joke The Miz, referring to how slaughtered Duke is going to be in the new ACC football. If I'm not mistaken there are some other schools in the ACC with a less then average record in football also.

I DUNNO I think he was trying to say the ACC sucks by bringing up Duke? Or maybe he will be excited to see a blow out? I have no idea.

"new" ACC is pretty good. Maryland, Virgina Tech (gonna be a down year I think tho), Virgina, Georiga Tech, Miami, FSU etc Plus still got BC coming in next season :cool:

I think Williams should have been reinstated. The Wideout from Colorado should also be reinstated aswell, I can't remember his name, but he took endorsements to raise funds to ski at the Olympics so NCAA said he couldnt play. Pretty stupid if you ask me.

Yeah, the guy from Colorado is the man, forget his name aswell. Anyway, I thought it was pretty obvious that bringing up a game between a perennial shit and a perennial powerhouse was pretty obvious that I was joking, but apparently not.

Even though I hate USC, Mike Williams should have definitely been reinstated. Now, I don't know if they will be able to maintain being the #1 team, especially with all the teams gunning for them. I go to Cal, so maybe my school has a chance this year in the pac-10. Go Aaron Rodgers! :)

Williams had to know of the risks by following Clarett, he has to deal with the consequences now. Fair and simple as that.

O H I O

The NFL rules changed allowing younger players, and then guys qave up their eligability just to have the NFL change the rules and fuck them over. I don't see that fair, why didn't they just change the rule back for after this year?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PIG SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

GO RAZORBACKS

Jeremy Bloom (the guy from CU) got hosed. The NCAA is a joke.

Yea NCAA is being stupid. They are trying to put out an "image" like they don't mess around or something. But the truth is college football is pretty corrupt. You got guys like Chris Rix driving around in Navigators with 22 inch rims and livin' the life at his off campus apparemnt with a flat screen TV (all of this was shown on ESPN one day a few years ago) Then you got guys like Bloom who is just trying to raise money to compete in the 06 Olympics who are getting suspended.

It looks like it's gonna be a down year for both my teams. CU doesn't have much hope especially since the NCAA robbed them of one of their best recievers. As for Virginia Tech (don't really care for them, but I go here so I may as well cheer for them) we all know they are going to be a mediocre team this year. Our only bright spot is that Marcus Vick is no longer going to be able to cost us any games and Bryan Randall can show what he can do for a whole game.

CU plays here in a few weeks, shall be a good time :yes:

Hello Mike Williams. Meet Antonio Langham.
Same thing, right? I haven't been following the WIlliams thing but if I'm not mistaken, that's pretty similar/the same.

If so, USC is lucky they didn't let him back on the team.

Let me get this straight, did Williams give back all of his endorsement money and shit or now? Because if he gave it all back then I don't think he should have been reinstated, but if he did give everything back then the NCAA is lame.

I HEARD he gave everything back, but I really don't know for sure.

I am assuming he did though, wouldn't make any sense at all if he didn't.

The thing is, Mike Williams doesn't need the NCAA. He's a beast no matter what and he'll still go high whenever he enters the draft

Mizzou slaughtering of Arkansas State begins in T minus 3 hours

Also, the ESPN guys were saying Toledo is going to beat Minnesota :lol:

Nah the Gophers will win.

Man... Oregon State shoulda beaten LSU. Great game but that OSU kicker missed 3 PATs!! 1 or 2, okay, but 3??? thats crazy..

I was pretty ticked when he missed the one in overtime.

Yeah we kept following the scoreboard, it was like 9-0 Oregon State into the third wasn't it?! Texas provided quite an ass whooping.


As for Mizzou, our offense is pretty stellar, Brad Smith :love:, but our secondary and kicking teams were just absolute ass tonight.

BTW, tell me you all know who Jeremy Bloom is? A bunch of Canadians are getting on my case in the other thread I made because I didn't go into detail over who he was.

Alabama what up.

Also Oregon State should have won. I was quite upset.

Colorado State as well.

Coaches blowing games upsets me mucho.

Bloom = CU wide receiver?

Yeah, Bloom is that Colorado reciever who is also a skier.

:love:

I wish I had this game on. :(

I watched the 4th quarter of the Gopher game on ESPN2. Gopher football will never be cool until they get themselves a stadium. If I was a football player and I had the option of going to Minnesota or Wisconsin, I would chose Wisconsin so fast because they don't play in an empty HHH Dome.

Anyway, in the stuff I watched I didn't see Pat Cheney (friend from high school) or John Shevlin (other guy I knew of from rival hs), that was a choke

Uh... Go Chippewas!

(Damn, my alma mater sucks...)

Who are the Chippewas?

Central Michigan. We've got a new coach this year, so hopefully we'll win more games (3) than we did last year.

Purdue lit up Syracuse, Hopefully they can contend for the Big Ten title

Anybody else road tripping to Lincoln for the Mizzou/Nebraska game? Cause I am, thats right, I AM :rant:

:nono:

TROY!!!!

LOL @ Chris Rix and FSU in general

Terrible

Yeah, terrible game by the Seminoles and Rix in particular.

That makes me a little less sad that Mizzou lost to Troy yesterday. Miami was my second choice, and that was just a class comeback in the final minutes.

Alabama representin'. :cool:

Auburn :shifty:

I hate them but yeah they whooped up on MSU. I like MSU :(

FRESNO STATE! SOUTHERN MISS!

WOOOO

This makes Missouri not look so bad

Notre Dame :cool:

I'm gonna get some shit of Notre Dame wins...A friend of mine here was confident that they would and I just laughed at him...oops

I hate Notre dame.

Also, LOL @ Ohio State acting like they wont the Nat'l C'ship.

They should have gotten beat.

See dickheads I told you Oregon was garbage. Getting their asses handed to them by shitty ass Indiana

Upset saturday = my picks being raped

Oregon also has ugly jerseys, make me wanna hit myself in the face

Upset Thursday actually


Anyway, that sucks for the Razorbacks QB, they were seconds away from upsetting Texas. Two minutes left, down by two points, inside the 10 yard line. All they needed a was a field goal, but then the QB gets stripped and Texas gets the ball back. Texas just escaped the upset.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh BC beat Penn State last night, and UConn barely got by DUKE hahah This could be a big year for Boston College in the Big East.

The Cornhuskers still suck! :(

Brad Smith was back to normal today...200+ yards passing, 83 yards rushing, 5 yards recieving...Mizzou 48-0 Ball State


We looked really good both offensively and defensively today. Hopefully we can break back into the top 25, but it was Ball State for that matter

Where's that guy who said Oregon was gonna win the Pac-10, I want to laugh at him.

I would like to aswell <font color=black>While porking The Miz up the arse, heh heh heh</font>

Wow! Arizona State is killing Iowa. Maybe the Pac-10 will finally be recognized as a power conference...if Oregon got their act together.

If Iowa wasn't from Iowa, they might matter.

They do though.

Also :nono: @ Auburn and Tennessee getting wins HANDED to them.

Brodie is out for the season. JUST GREAT.
