Just for the record Lou Holtz is a dummy for saying Notre Dame is going to be in the National Championship.

[Absolutely]

Just for the record Lou Holtz is a dummy for saying Notre Dame is going to be in the National Championship.

Lou Holtz is basically Senile at this point. He shouldn't be allowed on TV anymore, he's terrible. His fake Pep Talks were cringey last year.

I can't believe that Florida was something like a 73 point favorite over Charleston South.
They will KILL C.S, but opening at 73? How can you get beat by 73?
C.S has to be able to kick at least 2 field goals, so that would mean 80 points to cover.

Crazy.

[Absolutely]

Tex. Tech's Mike Leach's parking space...

[Absolutely]

How about Blount sucker-punching that dude after their loss to Boise?
I love how he punches him and then backs away pounding his chest like a bad-ass, as he backs away like a piece of shit...

Yeah, they should have these Meatheads do mandatory handshakes pre/post game.
Who saw that going wrong.

Btw, Blount: 8 Carries -5 Yards -0.6 Avg
Nice game shit-dick.

[Absolutely]

Look at you, with your High Quality clip.

Soooo fired by the way, or in this case year suspension.

[DanaReevesLungs]

I'm just hoping my Tigers do well this season.

[Phi Mu Alpha]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQC4BKi6qwk

Yeah, I'd hit a mormon as well

[Hoagie]

I wasn't really expecting much from Penn State this year with all the new starters. And I know it's only Akron. But they're looking really sharp and very dominant today. It's good to see that some of the new starters look prepared to start.

[Hoagie]

Ok maybe not all of them are ready. I miss Kevin Kelly already.

[Ball of Hate]

42-3 at the half!

[Absolutely]

42-3 at the half!

What was the final spread?
Still in the 70s?

That's so many points, and I assume Tebow is done.

Mizzou had a nice win, 37-9 over Illinois. Illinois isn't too shabby. Mizzou lost a lot of players, 6 drafted and Chase Daniel gone.
Blaine Gabbert: 25/33, 76% 3 TDs

[Ball of Hate]

10/15, 188 yds, 1 TD. He was out before the end of the half. Last I saw, the spread was 62.

[Chino Kapone]

Sam Bradford is out! BYU may have just beat OU... The kick is about to happen.

[Sct Ptersns Twn]

Done, OU, bwaaaa ha ha ha .....

[Chino Kapone]

I know waaaaay too many OU fans that are going to have about the shittiest week of their life.

[Ball of Hate]

I know waaaaay too many OU fans that are going to have about the shittiest week of their life.

Yeah...me too. Anytime OU loses it's cause for celebration.

FL win + OU loss = LIFE IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Absolutely]

VA Tech chances have really gone downhill fast...

[jshep]

the stupid ass sooners were playing thier fight song after a missed field goal to lose the game. they werent doing crap w/bradford. byu outplayed and outcoached them. ou is by far one of the most over-rated program. look at what theyve done in bcs games.

[Cpnthrfan]

Bama rbs are rollin downhill

[Chino Kapone]

This is going to be a damn good year for football. Who would have thought that at the end of the day, the Cowboys would be the team everyone in Oklahoma is gonna have to pull for over the Sooners. Tulsa looked decent versus Tulane. Gonna be a crazy fun year here in Oklahoma for football.

I love it. If I see the Hog's win 7 games this year I will be a happy happy man.

[ShooterMcGavin]

Just got home from Dallas. Disappointing game, but I still managed to get a kickass pick of the stadium:

[Stormrider666]

Seriously, if I ever made it to the new Dallas stadium, I would watch the game on the big screen rather than on the field. As a Redskins fan, it makes me sick to my stomach that I complimenting the Cowboys on something.

[Warfarer]

I really like the Dave Matthews song Why I Am before this weekend. Why must they beat that shit into the ground like they are? I hope they at least change up the songs each week, I would bet against it, or else I am going to have to hit mute during the games.

[Stormrider666]

One of things that I love about college football being back, is the commercials for ESPN's College Game Day.

[NotSoFast]

Tulsa looked decent versus Tulane.

That's not saying much. Tulane is a school of wanna-be doctors and lawyers. No one goes to Tulane to "play football". If you go to school to play football, you go to LSU, Alabama, Florida, etc.

[ShooterMcGavin]

Seriously, if I ever made it to the new Dallas stadium, I would watch the game on the big screen rather than on the field. As a Redskins fan, it makes me sick to my stomach that I complimenting the Cowboys on something.

Yeah, when I walked in and saw that screen I almost shit my pants.

[DanaReevesLungs]

I'm hoping Miami does Florida State in. I can't stand Bowden.

[Sct Ptersns Twn]

Hey look there is Erin Andrews!11!!!!1!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh wait, she has clothes on.

[Phi Mu Alpha]

I'm hoping Miami does Florida State in. I can't stand Bowden.

[Hoagie]

This has been a typical Miami vs Florida State game. Lots of speed and no discipline.

[Chino Kapone]

This has been a typical Miami vs Florida State game. Lots of speed and no discipline.

It's been a damn good game though.

[Kool Aid]

Like watching a High School game with the wide open recievers...

[maz]

I'm hoping Miami does Florida State in. I can't stand Bowden.

Ya got what Ya wanted

38-34 Miami

[Phi Mu Alpha]

I think Miami maybe the sleeper in the ACC that qb they have Harris is good

[LBF]

Anybody else think the "defenseless receiver" flag in the Georgia game was a bit bogus? I realize the rule is in place to keep safeties from head-hunting on receivers that are vulnerable...I have no problem with guys getting flagged when they lead with their helmet, or go after the receiver's head. But, in this case, the WR had his hand on the ball a split second before the hit and the Georgia player led with his forearm/shoulder and hit him in the chest. Terrible call, IMO.

[Absolutely]

Does any other college team do Pay-Per-View games?
Mizzou has been doing it this season and last, against shitty teams to start the season.
Like this week, the Mizzou/Bowling Green game is only available on PPV for $29.99.

It's ghey, $30.00 to see a beatdown.

[Phi Mu Alpha]

Why not just go to Buffalo Wild Wings or your local strip club?

[Absolutely]

Why not just go to Buffalo Wild Wings or your local strip club?

I don't even know if they'd pay for it, I just think it's weird. I guess no local affiliate wanted to pick up the 2-3 out of conference games.

$30.00 to see them hang 60 on the Furman Paladins is crazy.

The Hooters in Fayetteville always buys the Hogs games when they are on PPV. Call around, they should have the game.

How about watching them online. Quality might not be the best but at least you don't have to pay for it.

[Philly loser]

Penn State up 14-0

Syracuse just did a faggy quick kick instead of a FG

The game should be out of reach by now

Penn State has squandered opportunities

and the running game has stalled

Clark and the passing game look pretty good

and the defense has been strong though

[Ball of Hate]

Gators up 49-6 in the 4th.

[Ball of Hate]

Make that 56-6. Bring on TN.

[LBF]

Make that 56-6. Bring on TN.


After all the lippiness displayed by Lane Kiffin, Urban and the Gators may hang 75 on Tennessee....which would make me giggle. I live in god forsaken Volunteer-land, but I am not a Vol fan.

75? I think if its possible Urban and the Gators will hang 100 points on the Vols to teach Kiffin a lesson.

Although Tennesse did look better on offense last week, so maybe it will be game next week.

[LBF]

I just threw 75 out there cause it's a nice big number. I'm sure Urban will be trying to score 800 points if he can.

My actual prediction for that game is somewhere in the 56-17 range. It'll be interesting to see what the spread is when the lines come out.

[Ball of Hate]

A couple of things that I don't like in the Gators so far this year: turnovers and penalties. Too many. They keep turning the ball over and giving up yards, they won't return to the Championship game...even with Superman.

That being said, I'm taking the over next week.

I hope OHIO STATE gets smacked down.
I don't give Idaho State much of a shot against Oklahoma.

The sexy pick Oklahoma State Boy's are now down 45-35 with about 3 minutes left

[Phi Mu Alpha]

Yeah...
I always forget that they're Ohio STATE


Just remember next to add THE & University. Just so you know it should look like this.

THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY

Damn Notre Dame really dropped the ball on that one.

[Absolutely]

Damn Notre Dame really dropped the ball on that one.

Tate Forcier FTW

[LBF]

Damn Notre Dame really dropped the ball on that one.


First: Could someone please tell me why Notre Dame was throwing the ball on 2nd down late in the game? Just run a safe play for a few yards on 2nd down, run the play clock down and then throw it on 3rd if you need to. By throwing incomplete passes on 2nd and 3rd down back to back, Michigan was able to get the ball back without calling a TO.

Second: I absolutely despise both Notre Dame and Michigan. I wish there was a way for no one to win.

Throwing the ball down the field is 97% of their game plan. I agree with your last statement

[Stormrider666]

Good. Hopefully that will bring Notre Dame fans back down to earth.

[BullsLawDan]

Good. Hopefully that will bring Notre Dame fans back down to earth.

Exactly.

And provide the impetus for ESPN to fire Lou Holtz. What a homer idiot... Notre Dame is going to be in the BCS title game? Eat shit and die, you stupid homer.

[LBF]

You're right, they are a throw heavy team. But, you'd think with all the success they had running the ball with that little spread draw thing they would have given it a try since they were trying to run out the clock and all. Letting the QB heave it 30 yards downfield made zero sense.

Good. Hopefully that will bring Notre Dame fans back down to earth.

This.

And provide the impetus for ESPN to fire Lou Holtz. What a homer idiot... Notre Dame is going to be in the BCS title game? Eat shit and die, you stupid homer.

And really this.

[TallBaby]

ND just QB Kneeling 3 times would have been more effective than what they actually did.

[Madness]

Good. Hopefully that will bring Notre Dame fans back down to earth.

I don't see how they were so out there to begin with. I agreed with what Ron was saying on R&F this week. A win didn't mean Notre Dame was back but a win meant Michigan was back. It amazes me that people thought Notre Dame was going to be some powerhouse and Michigan was going to suck this year. Michigan had a bad year and were going to bounce back well before Notre Dame accomplished anything.

Notre Dame is a mid-major school talent wise. The media and fans have some delusion that it's still the 70s and that they're somehow still relevant in the college football world.

[Absolutely]

Exactly.

And provide the impetus for ESPN to fire Lou Holtz. What a homer idiot... Notre Dame is going to be in the BCS title game? Eat shit and die, you stupid homer.

He predicted undefeated-ness 2 weeks ago...

Then Kirk Herbstreit talks about how there's a good shot at a rematch between USC/THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY in the BCS Title game.
Because losing to USC at home as the #8 ranked team is going to get you to the Title game. AND barely beating Navy by 4 points AT HOME is a recipe for national champs as well.

But don't worry I'm sure they'll win out or lose to Penn St., play no conference championship game, and wait for others to lose their 1 game late and sneak in somewhere.
I hate Ohio State.

I love Stephen F Austin hanging 92 points on Texas College. I assume they're not D-1, but can't really find their conference.
SFA's QB Stats: 12-12, 285 Yards. 6 TDS
Not bad when you're completing 100%, and 50% of those are TDS.

[My] Mizzou Tigers had to put up 21 in the 2nd half just to squeeze by Bowling Green... A Boo

@Aaron Burrito - thanks!

You lucky bastard!

Really? Lucky? It's OSU...like Absolutely stated, they'll sneak into to some undeserved bowl game because another team or teams will lose a late season game and they don't have to play for a conference championship. Hardly lucky in my book.

[Save My Up's Dick]

Michigan beats Notre Dame :icon_mrgr

Michigan St. lost :icon_mrgr

Ohio St. lost :icon_mrgr

Great day of football!

[maxeypad]

GO COOGS....beating the Cowboys...w0000t :D

[Stormrider666]

That was a pretty good game last night between Ohio State and USC. You could hear the air being let out of the stadium as USC marching down the field on that final drive.

[burky79]

Yeah, that sucks. The Bucks lost because of sloppy offense and poor coaching decisions. It was still a great time and amazingly good seats! It was the loudest game I've ever been to... including the 2005 Texas game.

BTW, dumpster fire I saw on the way back to the car

I used to work at a NAIA school, so allow me to be Mr. Geek for a second.

The NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) is a completely different organization from the NCAA. NAIA schools can give athletic scholarships, NCAA D-3 can't. Recruiting is much easier at NAIA schools because there are no restrictions on "official" visits, phone calls, etc. Generally, NAIA schools are small, private and, most of the time, religiously affiliated. In most sports a good NAIA school will be very competitive with NCAA D-2 teams. I'm not sure if that statement applies to football, I don't know much about NAIA football. But there are a lot of NAIA schools that routinely beat D-2 schools in basketball, baseball, etc.


And yes, I'm not a fan of any of the Clausen brothers. I'd like to slap each of them in the face. I have a hunch they'd just cry.

Just a FYI

[Phi Mu Alpha]

I like the qb Miami has

[Chino Kapone]

Ya.... Miami's QB just tosses it with a flick of the wrist. Heisman?

[Stormrider666]

Anybody else check out the defense is optional game between Boise Stae and Fresno State last night. It was pretty entertaining. Everytime I turned the channel and came back, somebody had scored.

[Absolutely]

I watched a decent chunk.
But I hate Boise State. Are they good, yes, but enough already with the undefeated talk. I don't care if they're 35-0, they still play awful teams. Enjoy your Poinsettia bowl.
1 tough game at home against the Ducks

I thought the FLA game was going to be a blood-bath. It's shaping up to be a boringish 17-21 point win for FLA
I wanted a 63-17 Kiffin Spanking

I can still see Florida coming out and steamrolling the Vols in the second half. However, I can also see this game getting tight in the closing minutes.

[Absolutely]

I'd love it if that fat fuck Charlie Weis lost to Mich St.
16-10 ND, Michigan St on ND's 30 or so

[Absolutely]

Woot Woot!
17-16 Michigan State @ ND

How's that undefeated season looking Lou Holtz?

Tennessee is hanging a lot tougher than I expected. Tebow's got a couple of uncharacteristic turnovers that have helped keep UT in the game.

[Stormrider666]

Tennessee is hanging a lot tougher than I expected. Tebow's got a couple of uncharacteristic turnovers that have helped keep UT in the game.

They definitely are. Plus I think if Florida had some decent wide receivers, this would have been the blowout that we all thought it would be.

And once again, another sideline reporter asks a stupid question.

[Absolutely]

Wow, Mich St. up again. I switched for a while.

Edit: Wait, now they're down.

[Absolutely]

Oh shit, USC lost?
16-13 Washington

[disneyspy]

are you posting from the future?

[Awful Me]

16-13 Washington over USC!


LSU just got a huge boost to their strength of schedule and anytime USC gets beat it's a win for everyone!

Every LSU fan just became Washington Huskies fans

[roche]

Oh shit, the very overrated USC lost?
16-13 Washington

Fixed it for you. :icon_mrgr

[Awful Me]

Every year I look forward to college football.

I look forward to LSU winning.

and at some point Bama, and USC losing.

[Absolutely]

That fucking idiot Mich St. Qb throws an INT well within game tying field goal range.

WTF

[Stormrider666]

16-13 Washington over USC!


LSU just got a huge boost to their strength of schedule and anytime USC gets beat it's a win for everyone!

Once again, USC loses an early game to a weaker opponent.

And at the end of the Notre Dame game, another sideline hole asked another stupid question.

[Absolutely]

another sideline hole asked another stupid question.

"What's it like getting this monkey off your back?"

You sir don't know good questions...

And now Holtz is on ESPN claiming that ND has the best EVERYTHING
Best QB, Best OLine, Best Offense, Toughest Team
Blah blah blah.

[Ball of Hate]

OK, Florida...ENOUGH WITH THE UNSPORTSMANLIKE PENALTIES!!!! It almost cost them the game today. Glad they won, but would have preferred a 70-13 beat-down.

SOOOOOOOOOO glad USC lost.

http://espn.go.com/college-football/rankings/_/poll/1

[LBF]

Let me preface this by saying that I am in no way a Tennessee fan, matter of fact I can't stand them or their fans.

That being said, it's a shame their QB is so terrible because they have a decent running game and a very good defense. If they had even a mediocre QB teams couldn't put 9 in the box to stop the run on nearly every play.

[maxeypad]

This is the first time I seen this kid Snead play and he looks like absolute garbage. Is he just having a terrible game or is he wildly over rated?

[Absolutely]

This is the first time I seen this kid Snead play and he looks like absolute garbage. Is he just having a terrible game or is he wildly over rated?

Not sure, but completing only 33% of your passes isn't a good thing.
I've seen a few Cocks games in the last couple years, where did Spurrier's Offense go?

[Chino Kapone]

Spurrier is so up and down in the SEC at SC. He can't recruit that well to South Carolina because most kids in his area who want to play in the SEC go to Florida. A lot of people say the whole reason he took the job was to get a membership at Augusta National.

Anyway, Houston Nutt is a pretty good coach, Snead just had an awful game. Nutt's bread and butter has always been the run game. Helps when you have McFadden.

IMO the SEC is overrated this year. If you want a good QB to watch, check out the Michigan tranfer Ryan Mallett at Arkansas. He's 6'7" and has a fucking cannon for an arm. It should be a great game against Bama this weekend.

[LBF]

He's not the Heisman-quality QB everyone was making him out to be, but he's real good. Just had a terrible night.

X2.

[LBF]

On a related note....how stupid does Mitch Mustain feel right now? He and a handful of his Springdale HS teammates sign with Arkansas after Nutt hires the SPringdale coach to be offensive coordinator. Mustain starts about 1/2 the games his freshman year but gets pissed because they aren't throwing the ball enough and didn't install the spread offense. Keep in mind, his freshman year was the year Arkansas had McFadden and Felix Jones, the best two RB in the nation that year. So, he transfers to USC.

Fast forward two years.......Bobby Petrino, a very QB friendly coach, has replaced Nutt at Arkansas and Mustain is buried on the USC depth chart. I heard on ESPN that Pete Carroll says he would go to his #4 QB on the depth chart before he puts Mustain in the lineup. Way to destroy your career because you got butthurt, Mitch.

You know he feels stupid... but he had to go. McFadden and Jones were getting all the plays, and Gus Malzon(sp?) was getting pissed because they were not using his offense like he wanted Houston Nutt too. Of course not! You have arguabley the best combination at running backs in College football history at your disposal. At the same time, the Sprindale boys are dealing with tons and tons of pressure from the area. Eveyone in the area knew of these kids as Juniors in High School. They were everywhere. That's all anyone would talk about to the point Mustain was being harrassed. It didn't help that these kids parents went into the coaches office and demanded their kids become a bigger part of the offense. So they bounced. Nobody was happy to have Casey Dick as the QB.

Through the freedom of information act, Houston Nutt's phone record was made public. He was having an affair with one of the local reporters. He was exchanging 5,000 texts a month with this chick. He gets fed up with it his final year. You can just see the tension with Houston and the whole state of Arkansas.

The kids were bribed to come to the school by hiring Gus. They could have stayed, and been legeneds in the area. Absolute Gods if they take Arkansas to a BCS bowl. I mean, fuck, Mustain was undefeated as a freshman... but I think McFadden threw just as many passes as him(srcsm). Malzon went off to Tulsa, and is now an offensive coordinator at Auburn. He pretty much brought "the Wild Cat" front and center.

Football is life in Fayetteville. There are only two seasons in Arkansas. Football season, and anticipation for Football season.

[DanaReevesLungs]

I kind of feel sorry for ol' Houston Nutt....but only kinda.

[Awful Me]

I kind of feel sorry for ol' Houston Nutt....but only kinda.



I dont. Fuck him. He has played spoiler to LSU so many times it makes me sick. I'm glad he lost to an unranked team. The only way it could have been any sweeter last night is if any other coach in the world had been on that other sideline other than Spurrier.

Casey Dick's last pass as a College QB against LSU last year solidified that he was not as bad as everyone in Arkansas thought he was. Probably the single best moment of his college career.

Yep, if memory serves, several of the Springdale kids had committed to other schools until Nutt hired Malzan to be the Offensive Coordinator.

I got to watch Springdale absolutely take apart a very very good West Memphis team in the state finals Mustain's senior year (I've got a family connection with the West Memphis coaching staff).

You know a head coach has been doing some serious lying when a whole collection of parents basically storm his office to talk about his promises. Not to mention how strange it looked for the offensive coordinator to leave an SEC job after one year to go be the co-coordinator at a mid-major school.

[Stormrider666]

Spurrier is so up and down in the SEC at SC. He can't recruit that well to South Carolina because most kids in his area who want to play in the SEC go to Florida. A lot of people say the whole reason he took the job was to get a membership at Augusta National.

Anyway, Houston Nutt is a pretty good coach, Snead just had an awful game. Nutt's bread and butter has always been the run game. Helps when you have McFadden.

IMO the SEC is overrated this year. If you want a good QB to watch, check out the Michigan tranfer Ryan Mallett at Arkansas. He's 6'7" and has a fucking cannon for an arm. It should be a great game against Bama this weekend.

Yeah I agree about Snead having a bad game. I think last night was just another example of how tough SEC defenses are.

As a Redskins fan who is still fuming about Spurrier's tenure as head coach, any misfortune Spurrier has at South Carolina makes me a happy boy.

GO COOGS.....can't wait to beat the Red Raiders on Sat. night
ESPN2, 8pm w00t w00t


Please beat the Red Raiders. I was getting so tired how the local Texas media in Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio on TV and the papers everywhere were annointing Mike Leach as the second coming. You'd think the guy has won 4 National Championships in a row and been having a record like Carroll at USC. WTF?? Beat Texas once and I guess that will happen. :rolleyes:

[Absolutely]

Watching the Mizzou/Nevada game (31-21), and they keep saying "He is a leader of men"

I HATE that phrase, it's so annoying. Leader of men, shut up...

[Absolutely]

The Primetime games tonight kind of suck.
Iowa/Penn State
Texas Tech/Houston
Notre Dame/Purdue

I wish Miami/V.Tech was on instead of one of those, I much rather prefer 7pm games over 230

[askewcore]

I HATE that phrase, it's so annoying. Leader of men, shut up...

Me too. I dont really like when they use any military analogies for football. My high school coach always used to say, "We're at war out here! Mistakes can cost you your life!" and it was very annoying.

[Absolutely]

For some reason the Miami/Tech game isn't on in St.Louis.

ESPN and ABC both have this as the Info, "Either Illinois at Ohio State, or Miami at Virginia Tech"

The Ohio Stat game is on ABC, but ESPN has this Espn News like thing with no game on.

Ghey

[Absolutely]

Florida is up 31-0 at the end of the 1st quarter @ Kentucky

[Stormrider666]

ESPN News rules when you just want the scores and see the highlights and don't want to sit through all the fluff pieces that Sportscenter does now. But there is no way in hell, it should be simulcasted in place of a college football game.

Listening to the UGA and ASU game on XM and absolutely HATING the UGA announcers who keep saying "we" like they're fucking playing in the game.

Best thing I saw all day! :icon_mrgr

[NotSoFast]

LSU's defense pulled their ass out of the fire today. Turnovers and a last-minute goal line stand inside the 1 yard line held Mississippi State at bay just long enough to get the win.

[Absolutely]

Best thing I saw all day! :icon_mrgr

I like the #94 KU guy continuing to celebrate jumping all over the place, even after they brought out all the medical people.

[DanaReevesLungs]

I still hate sports talk. I can always find something else to listen to. As far Tebow:haha7::haha7::haha7::haha7:

[Hoagie]

Ok so Indiana gets screwed on a bad interception call that was reviewed but not reversed. Tonight Penn State gets screwed on a first down catch that is reviewed and not reversed. What the fuck is the point of instant replay if they're just going to let the same wrong call stand?

[domelogic]

Best thing I saw all day! :icon_mrgr

not a florida fan but this guy is classy. he was out cold for a while which is why he was puking so much.

i would hope you as an lsu fan would want him playing at 100% so if/when you win in two weeks you can talk shit, at least i would

[DanaReevesLungs]

Numbers 4, 5 and 6 go down. And they all lost to unranked opponents too. It's hell being in the Top 5 this season so far.

We got both Illinois/Ohio St and Miami/VATech on ABC/ESPN. They switched over to ESPNews during halftime of the ESPN game.....I wonder if that is what Absolutely saw



Edit: That ESPN announcer needs to be fired and then killed for saying "Tim Tebow is suppine." Really, Mr. Smartypants, you couldn't have just said "Tebow is still down."?

[Absolutely]

No, I was checking all day and it was just News. I guess they only put on the "Local Game", which was pretty local in Illinois. Maybe they didn't want to compete in the same market and blacked one out.

Still stupid

LSU needs to be extra careful then because with 4,5, and 6 losing, they will be probably 4th.


We can only hope Tebow needs more than just the bye week to get back to normal, or that he plays at less than 100% against the Tigers in 2 weeks.

[Cybouncer]

Tebow was fucked up going into the game with the flu.

He'll be fine.

[jpc165]

I love PSU, but that 4th quarter disaster was one of the ugliest things I have ever seen in my life. The good news is I bet big on Iowa getting 10 points.

[icculus1284]

I went to 2 LSU games at UF and they're the most hateful motherfuckers in the SEC. Alabama fans are probably the nicest. Fuck UF and fuck Tebow.

This is funny coming from an LSU fan. Every single LSU/Auburn game I've been to over the past 15 years or so, the fans have been complete dickheads. I almost got my ass kicked because an Auburn PLAYER caused a penalty. Never had a problem with any Gator fans. UGA fans are probably far and beyond the worst I've come into contact with. Ole Miss or Vandy probably being the nicest.

I like LSU, just all the fans that I've come in contact with have been assholes, the Baton Rouge broads are fine as hell too.

And Alabama fans are hardly the nicest in the SEC, try living in Birmingham for a few years and you'll see their true colors. But I'm sure this is based primarily on the in-state rivalry.

Yeah, inside the stadium you will usually run into lots of drunk assholes. If you hang out with the tailgaters outside, we will feed you and get you drunk.

[icculus1284]

It was outside the stadium(at family friend's RV) when the fat drunk asshole stated he was going to break my legs because the Auburn player chop blocked one of the LSU linemen.

But in general, the fans can be pretty inviting and relatively decent...but once the game starts it's a whole different ballgame(hurrhurr).

There are much worse fans than the LSU ones, it just seems to be a crap shoot with who might be decent and who might be a shitface. I just stopped wearing Auburn colors when I'm in Baton Rouge, solves some problems.

You got screwed. It makes no sense to blackout the Miami/Va Tech game in St. Louis. By the way, on behalf of Illinois fans everywhere I'd like to apologize for what you had to watch on the field. The Illini are garbage.

[Warfarer]

I am not the biggest Tebow fan, but he is a hell of a player. With that said, I was asking one of my friends how Tebow hasn't been laid out yet with all the stupid superman bullshit he does. If I was a coach and my star quarterback went head to head against the best safety in the country (Eric Berry), I would bench his ass until he figured out how to fucking slide. Instead, the announcers kissed his ass ranting about how awesome it was to see the two clash.

But then what good would he be? It's not like he's a good passer. He's good at running the ball and occasionally throwing some passes to keep the defense honest. But he's hardly Michael Vick. He's big and strong and breaks tackles. If he went down easy he wouldn't be any good.

I totally agree that there are plenty of drunk assholes that cheer for LSU. But like Awful Me stated, we'll invite you in for a beer and some jambalaya or gumbo any time. MOST fans realize it's just a game, but for some reason my 2 visits to UF have been horrid because of the elitist assholes that roam that campus. Georgia fans are total assholes too and I find Auburn fans to be pretty damn cool. LOVE the Alabama fans and sadly, my girlfriend is a Kentucky fan but I've never had a problem in Lexington either. But I'll be a motherfucker if Gainesville isn't just a hellhole for me every time I've gone.

I will say though, now that I think about it, my best piece of ass was from Auburn. God that girl made my dick hard in milliseconds.

[Absolutely]

I'm praying that Washington hangs on to win this game at Notre Dame, I can't take another last second win from these Hose Bags.

They should have lost against Mich ST and Purdue, could easily be 1-4 if they lose today and yet I'm sure that Lou Holtz will be given a 5 minute spot on ESPN later to talk about how great Clausen's balls smell.

[Absolutely]

Ha!
Personal Foul on ND on a field goal kick... Now they get 3 more shots to get it in from 2 or so.

Of course they still can't get in the endzone, on their 5th try!

[Stormrider666]

I'm rooting for both Notre Dame and Florida State to lose.

[Absolutely]

Washington was worthless there...
Like 7 chances to get in from the 2 yard line?

[TreeFortRichard]

ND guy was soooo down on the 2pt conversion...his knee hit before he crossed the line. Is there no replay in this game? I just came over from BC beating FSU :)

[Hoagie]

If they don't overturn this ND interception then I think they should take instant replay out of college football because it's totally worthless and does nothing but waste time.

[Absolutely]

Tie Game
That was a big drive by Washington, starting on their 10 or so.

[TreeFortRichard]

you see...if they had replayed the 2pt try they would have ruled him down..and of course NBC...Notre Dame Broadcasting Corp...would never replay the 2pt and point out the guy was actually down..It's almost as bad as Fox with a yankees game

[Absolutely]

Nice catch asshole...

[Stormrider666]

Let Holtz's lapping of Claussen's balls continue.

[Absolutely]

Let Holtz's lapping of Claussen's balls continue.

At least May will point out that they could be 1-4

[Hoagie]

How does Holtz manage to hold on to that job? Let's look at the qualifications for his job.

You have to know college football. Ok he was a good coach at the college level so he fits this criteria.

You have to be able to read. I'm assuming he can so he fits this criteria as well.

You have to be able to speak well. FAIL

You have to maintain at least some sliver of neutrality and not be completely biased. FAIL

You have to have some kind of charisma or presence that doesn't make people want to throw their TVs through the window. Outside of the Notre Dame crowd this is an EPIC FAIL

That's all you really have to do. If I sucked at most of my job I would have been fired years ago.

[LBF]

Holtz keeps his job for one reason and one reason only. People continue to watch the show. 1/2 of those people are Notre Dame fans that love everything he says, the other 1/2 are guys like us that tune in only to see what ridiculous horsecrap he's going to spew this time. You either love him or hate him....which makes him the Glenn Beck of college football.

[Sct Ptersns Twn]

Go GATORS!

[Aaron Burrito]

Go GATORS!

This game sucks!

[Awful Me]

Piss poor playing on both sides of the ball for LSU, even fucking worse officiating, every one of those refs should be fired.


Even without the fucking horrendous lack of calls against Florida, LSU would have lost.

Honestly, I'm just sick of the NCAA TV football announcers as well. No matter what game, they ALWAYS bring up fucking Tebow. Motherfucker needs to graduate and fail in the NFL already.

Also, the LSU/UF game was a snooze fest.

I don't know what was worse yesterday, the Tebow watch or basically every analyst's love affair with Bobby Bowden. I do think it was fucked up that the trustees made their feelings about Bowden public. But I also think its fucked up that the subject of possibly firing Bowden can't be approached without people losing their shit.

So....if you're the GM of an NFL team and you need a QB.....would you risk taking Sam Bradford with a first round pick? You'll get castrated if you take him and he gets hurt every time he falls on his right side.

[Hoagie]

I kinda hope someone else is watching the Penn State game and just saw Navorro Bowman just lay out the running back. That was a brutal hit. Bowman is healthy and he has his explosiveness back.

[Stormrider666]

So....if you're the GM of an NFL team and you need a QB.....would you risk taking Sam Bradford with a first round pick? You'll get castrated if you take him and he gets hurt every time he falls on his right side.

I think Bradford made a mistake trying to come back after the initial shoulder injury. Given what happend today, I think its safe to say you won't see him starting another game this season. He'll probably have surgery and just get ready for the draft.

That being said, I was always thought Bradford would be a risky first round pick and that was the before the shoulder injury. I think most of the Big 12 quarterbacks would be a risky first round pick.

[Aaron Burrito]

Bradford is a junior so he could return to college if he chooses.

[icculus1284]

Florida looking awful. Three turnovers, two in the red zone.

And did I hear correctly, an announcer said there were 215 yards of penalties for the Texas/Oklahoma game?

[icculus1284]

Fourth turnover for Florida. Arkansas winds up driving down the field and missing a field goal.

Arkansas absolutely fails at capitalizing on these turnovers. I'm not sure if they've scored any points on the following drive after a turnover.

[icculus1284]

This Florida/Arkansas game is turning out to be quite the barn burner. A lot better than expected, and really takes the sting off Auburn's awful show last week against Arkansas.

Florida might be reliving their loss to Ole Miss last year.

[Absolutely]

That's a bullshit pass interference call on Arkansas
Florida will end up winning this 27-20

And now a PF on Ark

[Aaron Burrito]

Back to back horse shit calls against Arkansas on that Florida drive.

I kind of agree with the pass interference, the Arkansas defender had his hands all over the receiver.

Yeah the unnecessary roughness was a bit of a stretch.

[Absolutely]

Of course he misses the FG.
And you knew they weren't going to get the first down with the play they called.

A Booooooo

[DanaReevesLungs]

Tejada's gonna lose his walk-on position QUICK after this bullshit display.

[icculus1284]

[DanaReevesLungs]

Yep

Florida has to drop in the rankings after this, right?

[icculus1284]

So I guess we can all agree that no matter the outcome of this game, Arkansas is quite underrated.

[icculus1284]

Florida has to drop in the rankings after this, right?

I'm sure they will, should Alabama win over South Carolina.

[Absolutely]

No flag on that pass?
But it would have helped Florida win...

Maybe a flag for hitting Timmy Jesus on the play?

[Aaron Burrito]

Nice no call on the offensive pass interference.

[Absolutely]

Florida has to drop in the rankings after this, right?

I doubt it, like they just said "When you're #1 a win is a win"
They'll pump up Arkansas and make it seem like they beat a top 10 team.

[DanaReevesLungs]

Nice no call on the offensive pass interference.

You're fucking kidding right? He was all over the defender and what about the false start the play before. Fucking officials are giving Florida the game.

[Aaron Burrito]

How do you let him keep picking up 8 yard chunks.

I'd rather get beat by the pass.

Verne Lundquist is a dipshit.

When the Arkansas receiver fumbled the ball in the endzone, he was questioning if it was a complete pass. A 75 yard pass completion.

Southern Cal/ND looks like it was a good one.

[LBF]

Southern Cal/ND looks like it was a good one.

I just caught the last couple minutes. I would love to know what Weis was thinking on the play with 4 seconds left. Even if Clausen throws a decent pass (which he didn't) the receiver catches it at the 2 1/2 yard line and is immediately tackled. Shouldn't you at least throw the ball to someone who has a chance to score??

At least the play with 1 second left looked like a fairly well-run play. Clausen just threw another terrible pass.

[Sct Ptersns Twn]

Sorry boys, Fla will be No. 1 till they lose. I am glad I missed that game, I would have been a fucking pissed off mess the whole time.

This is why I'm not a gambler. Though I would have gotten the OU game had Bradford not gotten hurt. And I told some friends to take the points in the FL/AR game. I had a feeling it was gonna be close.

South Carolina is giving Alabama a run for their money currently.

Auburn is looking like shit against Kentucky, it's games like this that make me wish I wasn't a college football fan.

[Phi Mu Alpha]

Longhorns and Sooners game probably the best so far this season.

For me, the best game I've seen all season was Arkansas/Florida.

I've always regarded Oklahoma as a severely overrated team.

And Auburn loses to Kentucky for the first time in 40 some odd years.

I shall hang my head in shame. We did so well for the first part of the season, then it all just fell to shit. I'll be at the game next week in Baton Rouge...that should be fun :(

Also, looks like Alabama will wind up winning over SC.

AR/FL was excellent. I was worried about it. Thought FL would win, but knew it wasn't going to be by much.

I think that whole Big 12 is vastly overrated. TX couldn't overwhelm OU (without Bradford), KS just lost to CO, and NE got blown out.

I still don't understand why THAT was tonights game to watch

Because ESPN(CBS does even more, but I hope we can all agree their announcers are complete fail) jerks off to Alabama because they were really good a long time ago. Bear Bryant wouldn't be able to get away today with half the shit he got away with during his "reign". Back then they had unlimited scholarships, so the "Bear" would offer any decent player a scholarship and then not play them, so other schools couldn't pick them up. He'd also play an extra SEC game every season to boost his win pct. It was a loophole that he abused. Also, I believe Alabama has been under some form of probation for the past 15 years. But once again, I'm biased because I'm an Auburn fan. SC did a good job tonight though.

And what Dana said.

I agree. Auburn has been much cleaner, historically, than BAMA. Just couldn't pass up the chance for a cheapshot.

BAMA football has been pretty well-behaved since 2000 or so. This latest deal about players getting textbooks for friends is pretty minor, IMO.

Yeah, in Memphis there's pretty much zero rivalry going on. There are too many teams represented here. UT, Memphis, Ole Miss, MSU, Arkansas, Alabama, and Auburn.

In Alabama though, you're either AU or UA. Unless you're black and you're for like Jacksonville State or some shitty black college team.

Edit: You could be for Troy...who was good in division 2(when they were known as Troy State University-actually a really nice town, been to a game or two there when they were division 2). They joined division 1 and really haven't done anything since.

[Gonzoid]

I think Alabama is the only team that has played well enough to be #1. All the other teams have been unimpressive to say the least. I really hope they smoke Florida in the SEC championship and this is coming from a guy that hates Saban. 2005 may have been the only time this decade where we had 2 undisputed teams that deserved to be in the champ game unquestionably...the way the game is now, not sure if we will see that again for a while.

As a Big10 homer, I think Iowa needs to get higher in the rankings as well. Probably Top6 at least...they are very similar to Ohio State in 2002. Wish PSU's line culd have played as well in that game as they have since.

[Stormrider666]

Sorry boys, Fla will be No. 1 till they lose. I am glad I missed that game, I would have been a fucking pissed off mess the whole time.

I have to agree with this. Alabama should be #2. I will say this, if its Alabama or Florida in the BCS title game, given what I have seen of some of the other teams, we are looking at a blow out for either one of the SEC teams.

Bradford is a junior so he could return to college if he chooses.

Considering that Bradford passed on the NFL and came back this season, I don't seeing him doing that again.

The only way I see him coming back is if the "experts" advising him basically tell him that the NFL won't draft him unless he proves he can stay healthy with another year in college. That won't happen, so I don't expect to see him in an OU uniform again.

Nobody really wants BSU in the top 5 at all, huh? Bama housed Arkansas at Arkansas. The hogs didn't show up for the bama game and really played Florida hard, and should have won. It just happened to be their 4th undefeated team in a row and also their 3rd week in a row taking on the spread offense. I think those factors were really underrated and surprised people with how well they played them. Florida didn't do anything to lose their #1 ranking IMO. It doesn't really matter who is #1 until they play in the SEC championship game.

SEC suspends UF-Arkansas crew
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- The Southeastern Conference has suspended officials from last weekend's Arkansas-Florida game after the crew was involved in its second controversial call of the year.

Referee Marc Curles' crew called a personal foul on Arkansas defensive lineman Malcolm Sheppard in the fourth quarter as the Gators were rallying for a 23-20 victory. The league said there was no video evidence to support the call.

The same group of officials called the LSU-Georgia game earlier this month, which included a late unsportsmanlike conduct penalty the league said shouldn't have been called.

"A series of calls that have occurred during the last several weeks have not been to the standard that we expect from our officiating crews," SEC commissioner Mike Slive said Wednesday. "I believe our officiating program is the best in the country. However, there are times when these actions must be taken."

[LBF]

For BAMA and Florida to play the title game, I think three things have to happen....

1. Obviously, both teams have to go undefeated in the regular season
2. The SEC title game has to be a great game with a close score, like less-than-a-FG close.
3. Texas would have to get beaten very handily in the Big 12 title game.

Even if those things happen, I don't see them letting Florida and BAMA play in back-to-back games. They would just find a way to move USC up far enough to take over the $2 spot.

Just got in from Baton Rouge. Ugly game on Auburn's part. I was sitting alone in the LSU fan section(my parents were kind enough to take the suite passes and cast me into the sea of gold and purple), made it almost to the end of the first quarter before I left. Went to the car, gabbed my cooler and went to a friend's RV to watch the rest of the game and get drunk.

Had a good time though, the fans were the most friendly I've seen them in my previous visits.

Another typical performance in a tight, big game by Penn State. Go into a shell and hope you don't get beat up too badly. Which they did. At least I can still have Joe Paterno put this game into perspective for me when it's over. Once he's gone and Tom Bradley is officially running the program (he's running it now more or less he just doesn't have the official title yet) I'm going to have a really hard time not just writing this program off all together.

I was a little upset Florida State didn't beat Clemson, that was a PACKED stadium, it was so damn loud you could tell it was crazy

[Stormrider666]

I think thats weak as hell, I mean come on if you were Pitt, Miami, Penn State, Or USC you telling me you wouldnt want a quote easy win against a "fluke" team?

So what you're basically saying, is those teams are all chicken shit and would rather schedule tomato cans on their schedule, rather than a team that has had success in BCS games.

So what you're basically saying, is those teams are all chicken shit and would rather schedule tomato cans on their schedule, rather than a team that has had success in BCS games.Keep in mind that most major programs schedule their non-conference opponents a couple years in advance. I don't know the whole story but if Boise State didn't want to agree to a road game until really recently then it's entirely possible that none of the major programs even have an open week they could schedule them in.

From what I read in the story, I think Boise State was trying to set up a game for the 2011 season.

[Hoagie]

I think part of Boise State's problem is the NCAA rule change that allows Division 1 (screw that Bowl Subdivision crap) to schedule one Division 1-AA team every year and have it count for bowl eligibility. Those 1-AA teams will come into anyone's stadium for relatively dirt cheap and give a D-1 team a free win. It also eats up a free week that teams like Boise State needs if they want to get in against the big programs.

This.

Except for the "dirt cheap" part. Most 1-AA teams are paid very handsomely for coming to a D-1's stadium and taking a beating.

A home game for some of these teams will bring in 5 or 6 million dollars just for that game. These schools are getting paid generally around $400k. That's alot for those 1-AA schools but cheap compared to what a major program would command.

I see what you're saying. I wonder what a not good 1-A team gets paid to go play a big-time school. Like when Memphis makes the trip to Knoxville, I wonder if they get a big payday to go along with their beating, or if they do it for free.

If you go to their stadium they'll come to yours.

South Carolina giving Florida a time. Don't see SC being able to keep up the entire game though.

This first quarter just seems to be crawling by.

[Stormrider666]

With season in the home stretch, anybody else think it has been real lackluster. I don't know this year didn't have the same buzz as last year. Plus, there has been some real shitty match-ups on television. For example, one of the primetime games tonight is Notre Dame/Pittsburgh.

[JordanSRT10]

Wouldn't that be amazing? That would make Uconn 4th worst, as oppose to 3rd worst :action-sm

[icculus1284]

Looks like Southern Cal will be losing to Stanford.

Can't stand USC.

South Carolina still sticking it to Florida. Pretty surprising.

[Absolutely]

South Carolina still sticking it to Florida. Pretty surprising.

And Interception...
About to be a 10 point game. Over.

[icculus1284]

Yep.

As soon as I posted that, the interception occurred. Now, SC is is just falling apart at the seams.

OSU upsets Iowa in OT.

[Absolutely]

I've basically been listening to the Florida game, and I turned around and saw the Garcia had "Service" as his name. So I thought it was a backup, but couldn't find that player...
I thought I was crazy, but now I see they have "Service" and "Commitment" on their jersey on D.

I guess it's a Vet.Day thing.

Not crazy...

[icculus1284]

Yeah, when I saw "Integrity" on someone's jersey I was a bit confused. I didn't really make the connection with the camo shoulders and Spurrier's visor.

[icculus1284]

Miami loses to UNC.

[icculus1284]

Still don't understand how these MSU cowbells are even allowed in the stadium anymore.

[thereturn]

OSU upsets Iowa in OT.

Was that really an upset though? Iowa had a nice run but they are average at best.

[icculus1284]

Well, technically it was. I haven't been following either team closely.

[thereturn]

Well, technically it was. I haven't been following either team closely.

Neither team is that good, they will most likely get rolled by whomever they play in the rose bowl

[Absolutely]

First, I was unaware the ESPN360 was free. Although the picture is terrible.
Seconds, on ABC I'm getting the Tex.Tech Oklahoma State game instead of the Notre Dame game. So I went to 360, and the Notre Dame game is "blacked out"

It's not on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2... There's an option for it on 360, yet that's blacked out? What the fuck?

I love rooting against ND

360 is based on your cable provider and location. Games still get blacked out on there as well.

Yeah if its blacked out and not on anywhere in your line up just go to justin.tv that site has almost every college game, I have stayed up until 2 watching west coast games on there.

I just got back from Columbus from the Ohio State game with my family. Holy shit was that amazing! Bring on those bastards from that state up north!

[Jimmy's Dignity]

I fucking loved seeing USC get steam rolled by Stanford :haha7: :haha7:

seeing USC get killed yesterday was awesome...watching U of H lose to UCF....that hurt

I can't wait for Saturday. As big a disappointment as the season's been, I know they're gonna play well for OSU.

You are delusional. The only conference win they've had this year is against Indiana. Ohio State more than doubled the amount of passing yards and the amount of rushing yards that M*ch*g*n had last year, in the 42-7 beating. I am sure they will play really, really well...

good call.

Any prediction of ND losing this season could be a good call.
They're shit, and should probably be 2-9/3-8

I love watching Charlie Weiss though, so fat and such a loser.

[Phi Mu Alpha]

I'm going to be bold and say the Wildcats takes the Ducks, DRL must be shitting himself right now

[icculus1284]

LSU blew it.

Spike the ball with one second left? What were they thinking?

[Awful Me]

Les Miles should be fired for that.

I don't care that he won us a National Championship. He should be fired.

There is no excuse for that incompetence.

The screen pass was a terrible call on 3rd and 29.

You let 20 seconds run off before you call a time out

You spike the ball with 1 second.

You could have at least called a pass play.

Spike guarantees the loss.

FIRE HIM.

[icculus1284]

Les Miles should be fired for that.

Same thing I told my dad.

Pathetic. Why the fuck didn't Jefferson just go with a play anyway?

Yep, brainwashed. In situations like that, you have to think on your own and go against what the coach calls.

Nope, he didn't. That's what blew my mind.

[Absolutely]

Charlie Weis vs. Mark Mangino
Who wins?

You might think that Weis has more mobility, but he's had 1 knee replacement and probably need another. Mangino appears to have raptor-like tiny arms, so that's not a plus.

Mangino just looks like a mean person, he'd overpower Weis.

Don't forget Weis had a gastro bypass. Plus Weis has got a temper on him so if it came down to it, the Weis vs Mangino fight would look like this :fight6:.

So my vote is Weis no questions asked

http://a.espncdn.com/media/apphoto/3f2f402a-94a4-49f8-b459-5be63776a68f.jpgI remember a couple of seasons we couldn't get the Notre Dame fans to shut up. Now I don't think there are any left around.

My favorite part of what Wiess has done to the Notre Dame program is that it is no longer one of the prestigious coaching jobs anymore. It'll still be high paying but the recruiting grounds have eroded somewhat, the fan base has no patience left, and you're no longer stepping into a program with the aura of success. Who ever comes in now will have to rebuild the program with people calling for his firing right from the start. It's going to be interesting to see who they can get to deal with that.
