Can't stop that SEC SPEED

[Poop Sailboat]

first!

[Kopek]

Georgia Poodles?

[wacker]

I am going to see Michigan and Miami (Ohio) on the 6th, Go me!!

[Kopek]

Why? That looks like a terrible game.

[wacker]

Never been to a college game before and a friend invited me.

[kevin6387]

well now you are going to get a bad impression of what they are like. At least go to a conference play game.

[Genius]

I'll be going to my fifth straight Ohio State/Michigan game this year. Which also looks like a horrible game.

[Poop Sailboat]

I might be attending the Michigan/Wisconsin game, which also looks like a horrible game.

[Poop Sailboat]

Can we do the GMF top 15 poll again? I thought that was fun last year.

[Genius]

We can do anything we want.

[Poop Sailboat]

the world is ours!

[Penguin Rick]

It's too bad Northwestern sucks at football.

Girls lacrosse ftw!

[One Under]

So I went to pick up the my football tickets for this year. Mizzou decided to be retarded and not include the Illinois or Kansas games in the student pack, like they did last year. Kind of pissed about that.

[nuclearjew]

Tomorrow makes one more month until the OSU Beavs home opener against Hawai'i. Best time of the year, bar none.

[Genius]

Beavers and Rainbows!

[nuclearjew]

I need to think of a clever sign to hold up at the following week's Beavers/Trojans ESPN nationally televised game...

Go buy them off the KU athletics website like the rest of the Mizzou fans. We welcome your money. All the missouri fans are afraid there won't be tickets available when MU's portion goes public so they are trying to buy KU's.

No. 1 Georgia loses tackle Sturdivant to knee injury
ESPN.com news services

Preseason No. 1 Georgia has already suffered a loss.

The Bulldogs announced on Tuesday that left tackle Trinton Sturdivant needs reconstructive surgery on his injured left knee and will be out for the season.

On Monday, Sturdivant went down with a knee injury in the team's first scrimmage of the season in Athens, Ga.

"It swelled up pretty good, and we're taking the pictures so we'll see," coach Mark Richt said Monday night, according to the school. "It's just sad to see a guy get hurt."

The sophomore started all 13 games at left tackle left season and earned freshman All-America and freshman All-SEC honors.

Sophomore Josh Davis replaced Sturdivant for the remainder of practice.

[Night Hawk]

I hope UCF can have a good year.. I know nobody cares.. but still... Would be good for us.

[Dragon]

We are still pre-season favorites to repeat in fball as East Champs. So there is hope although I was out a few days back and Weatherford didn't seem to bright but he sure was drunk.

[GhettoSuave]

If you havent gone to a game in Neyland Stadium.... you actually have never been to a college game

[kpickle]

Never been to a college game before and a friend invited me.

You should make your first game something good, like an SEC or Big 12 game. Everything else is pretty much shit

[Menace2Sobriety]

Have fun coming to Lincoln this year...still a little sore and pissed about my last trip to columbia...Just want to hit that booger-eating pussy of a QB you got ....

[Stax]

Fucking FINALLY remembered to order my tickets for UConn, we might not suck!

[hoponator]

SEC is great no doubt about it, but Big Ten can hold its own. I've only not enjoyed going to a MSU game once, and that was just because it was the most depressing loss ever to Notre Dame I think 2 years ago.

Are you one of those delusional Nebraska fans that thinks Bo is gonna be your savior and take you back to the national spotlight in his first year? Do you still reference the blackshirts?


Do you really think Nebraska is going to stop Missouri? I'm a KU fan and hate Mizzou, but have no problem admitting they are a very good team. Nebraska might have a great home field advantage, but they don't have the tools/experience to compete imo.

[ShitBreak]

OSU > Nebraska.

Mizzou is loaded though.

[Poop Sailboat]

ok this thread officially turned gay

[Pollo]

what talent does Nebraska have anyways? Marlon Lucky is the only legit player I see that they have.

I AM one of those fan who has totally bought into Bo. We had the 116th ranked D last year. Even if he gets us into the top 50, we win 4 more games last year. (still would have gotten beat in Columbia though). But we would have beat Texas, Colorado, KANSAS, (weren't we up by 14 at one point before the D decided to sit down and rest for the game?), and Okie State, however, that one was an ass whooping on both sides, and could be a toss up.

We will see, but I know Kansas is going to get smoked by Missouri and Nebraska this year, but don't cry, you'll always have 2007 to tell the grandkids about.

"You see Sonny, we had this fat guy..."

PS- Your bowl game WAS awesome though, I was pretty pumped about that...

[ShitBreak]

You realize that's it's near impossible to go from the 116th ranked D to a top 50 D in one season, don't you?

[redsox39]

what talent does Nebraska have anyways? Marlon Lucky is the only legit player I see that they have.

Besides Marlon Lucky, you will see the best group of RB's since the Phillips/Green days. Nebraska will have an awesome running game. Period. 4 deep, all ready to go and start, Marlon is barely hanging on. In fact our Depth Chart has co- starters with Lucky and Helu.

And, oh, I don't know, how about the guy that threw 16 TD's and 1400+ yards in 3 games as a starter last year. Joe Ganz? He is on awards watch lists along with Marlon...
We did lose the playmakers at Reciever, but they do have 2 seniors who are possesion recievers, (ask Texas what they think about Nate Swift).

But our QB and RB are 100% solid, and we have the Best O Line in the Big 12.

The Question is, who ARE the play makers on d? I have no idea, since none of them wanted to play last year...

[redsox39]

You realize that's it's near impossible to go from the 116th ranked D to a top 50 D in one season, don't you?


Check Nebraska from 2002 - 2003

The one year Bo was our D Cood.

Nebraska was #60 in 2002, then in 2003 we get Bo, and We have a top 10 D, lead the Nation in Turnovers, and set school records for INT's and team sacks.

It can be done, and we all saw it. You think we would want Bo because he has a cool name? He came in and did exactly what he promised to do last time, so he earned trust and respect from the fans. We are giving him his shot right now.

[ShitBreak]

Going from 60 to 10 isn't that hard. Going from dead last to top 50...lot harder.

Pelini will put a jolt into your program...but it doesn't change the fact you will be fighting for 3rd in the division, and could easily end up being 5th in the division.

[redsox39]

Ouch. Kansas will fall just as hard and fast as the rise they had last year.

Joe Ganz started his first game EVER against Kansas last year. 4 TD and 405 yards passing. I am willing to bet Iowa state give you fits this year...lol

[kevin6387]

First, no Nebraska was never up by 14. Kansas and Nebraska kept trading touchdowns in the first quarter. Then Kansas threw all over them. What is sad I was jokingly saying in the stands to my friends we were going to drop 80... when we damn near did they all thought it was hilarious i called it before the game.

Joe Ganz is 100% solid... HAHA... And why would our defense try too hard when they were up by 40+ points? Of course Ganz is going to get some TD's. They were all to Purify too, who you guys don't have anymore if I remember correctly.

And why didn't you list the amount of interceptions Ganz threw last season? Kinda makes his stats not look as good huh? Kansas had the better offense and defense last year. They will again this year. As long as they are efficient (get turnovers, don't commit them) they will continue to be a good team.


And yes you are a delusional NU fan. Thinking you guys are going to be good this year makes you delusional. Lucky is a good running back, but you seriously are comparing Joe Ganz to Chase Daniel, Todd Reesing, Sam Bradford, Colt McCoy, and Graham Harrell? Ganz is like the 8th best QB in the conference. That's sad.

[hospitalrock]

It's going to be interesting to see if KU and Mizzou are able to continue their winning ways this year. I think Mizzou has a good chance with the number of returning starters. I'm not sure if KU's success was a product of the schedule and getting on a roll or if they have turned the corner. Great coach.

[hoosiers23]

this feels like a big12 clusterf$#% in here... where are all big ten bitches at?'

for the record, indiana will be AWESOME this year. and I base that on absolutely nothing. but hey, they're adding on to their stadium and making it a horseshoe, that must mean they're good, right?

[ShitBreak]

It sure helped Indiana win their bowl game last year!


Oh wait.

[Fletch]

but hey, they're adding on to their stadium and making it a horseshoe, that must mean they're good, right?

So there will be even more empty seats!

[goldsoundz]

big ten's gonna be interesting. i think there's 5 or 6 teams with a realistic shot of finishing second behind ohio state

indiana is not one of them.

[Penguin Rick]

Nor is Northwestern.

:(

[goldsoundz]

i think they'll be good enough to get to a bowl game this year though. granted they can get a great year out of tyrell sutton, which i think they will

[hospitalrock]

We'll get a good idea how good the big 10 is when OSU meets up with USC. Should be classic. Best non-conference game of the year.

[nuclearjew]

But OSU and USC are in the same conference! Oh wait, you're talking about that shitty team from Ohio.

GO BEAVS

[hospitalrock]

Sorry about that. So many OSUs out there. The Beavs are my favortite OSU. Love the mascot. Haven't looked at the Pac-10, what's the prediction for the real OSU.

[Fletch]

Prediction: They're in for a beatdown September 6th.

[nuclearjew]

Oregon State will be lucky to make a bowl this year. They lost their top RB, LB and Groza Award-winning kicker. I think they'll be ok but they do have a really tough home schedule though (California, USC, Oregon, Arizona State).

[nuclearjew]

Prediction: They're in for a beatdown September 6th.
The Beavs do not travel well to the east :(

[Fletch]

The Beavs do not travel well to the east :(

That's a long trip to State College. I'll probably be at that game, I hope that Stroughter dude is healthy or whatever. I was looking forward to seeing him play.

[sdale4life]

ASU over Georgia week 1!!! GO DEVILS!

That's sad.

I admit defeat on the "up by 14 part", it was 14-7, but I have tried to burn that game from my memory to be fair!

Ganz had 2 TD's in the first half, 2 TD's in the second half. He did throw 4 picks in his first start vs Kansas, but like YOU said, being down 40 kinda makes you sling it ala Brett Favre style. The next game he throws 7 TD's, 510 yards, no picks at KState (which I have a feeling you care for about as much as I do).

He has 3 starts under his belt, and still had a 16-7 TD-INT ratio. For only getting 10-20% of the practice snaps and For only throwing 122 yards in his 3 year career in real games (and not really, since it was mop up duty), I think 16-7 is pretty good.

He is no Chase Daniels, but he will be great. I don't get to nominate the people on the watch list, but he's on them. Strange...I didn't see either of Kansas' guys on there...

Wow, Kansas had the Better D last year. did you come up with that one all by yourself? Akron and 115 other teams had a better defense last year. Good one.

In either case, we can argue til we are jayhawk blue in the face, but when they get back on the bus for the boring ride back to Lawrence, there won't be any smiles.

[ShitBreak]

I should cock slap you for calling me a Kansas fan.

I never saw that pep talk. "You come home and your 4 kids tell you that your wife has ran off with the drummer." Lulz.

I remember the pep talk before the Rose Bowl he was supposed to be Illinois' coach and said Rashard Men-Der-Hall

[kevin6387]

Redsox - What watch list are you talking about? Because Reesing is on many... If you are in any kind of way stating Ganz > Reesing, then you are delusional. I never once said or implied Kansas had a football tradition. We were horrible through the 80's and had small amount of success in the 90's. The "Tradition since September" poster was a Mizzou fan, which is ironic that they would hold it up. That fan base acts like they invented the sport after last year. I'm just stating Kansas will be a better team than Nebraska.


And let me remind you that 2 years ago Kansas should have beaten NU in Lincoln, but like in 4 other games that year we relinquished our lead in the final seconds. We lost in OT and we were a 6-6 team that year. We lost in OT twice (NU [NU tied it with seconds to go] and Toledo) and lost in the last minute twice (A&M at home, and At Baylor [up 17 in the 3rd]). That 6-6 team shat themselves in the final seconds of the game, and screwed them right out of a possibly 10-2 season. Todd Reesing being in charge in the 4th quarter has everything to do with it. He has the confidence to go in and not piss down his leg when it's edgy. Meier has the same abilities, just not the physical toughness.

Not to mention Mangino is doing this with 1 and 2 star recruits and was a big get if we got a 3 star... Aqib Talib was a 2 star along with every other Jayhawk drafted last year. He developes his players much better than anyone in Nebraska has recently. Pelini needs to show he's a winner before you can start talking shit. Your history means nothing when you suck a lot recently.

[hospitalrock]

Kevin - while the record was 6-6, losses to Toledo and Baylor even if it is last minute or OT are not excusable. I hope they have a good year and the schedule sets up for a good shot at 6 plus wins. Mangino is an awesome coach. I'm surprised he didn't get a significant amount of interest for other positions during the offseason.

[mongo]

the big 12 is fucking weak anyhow, so all of you midwest fags just stfu. pac10 and sec will ruin all of your fairy asses.

[kevin6387]

Who's good in the Pac-10 outside of USC? And they are plagued with injuries already.

[nuclearjew]

Arizona State? California? And of course, Oregon State.

[CrazyCarl]

more like Boregon State

[nuclearjew]

More like Whoregon State!

[Poop Sailboat]

More like Whoregon State!
I ALREADY DID THAT WITH GEORGIA!!!

[Pollo]

Who's good in the Pac-10 outside of USC? And they are plagued with injuries already.

I'd say Cal and Oregon, and I really think Arizona St. overachieved last year, plus after losing some key players to the NFL (and a decent OOC schedule which features Georgia), it's going to be a tough year for them.

[nuclearjew]

Oregon lost Dixon and Stewart; unless they made some serious changes, they're limpdicks. I can't wait for the Civil War.

[blazerboy427]

the big 12 is fucking weak anyhow, so all of you midwest fags just stfu. pac10 and sec will ruin all of your fairy asses.

Hold up now, your statement is only true about one of those conferences...and I'll give you a hint; it's not the Pac-10.

[Pollo]

Oregon lost Dixon and Stewart; unless they made some serious changes, they're limpdicks. I can't wait for the Civil War.

meh, not that you put it that way, I'd say Stanford is only USC's competition.

some experts think UCLA is a sleeper, but there's just too many new coaches and their team is relatively full of freshmen and sophomores.

[hospitalrock]

The last two PAC10 teams that played Texas may think otherwise. The Pac-10 consists of one team with a shot at the BCS and 9 warm up games. The biggest game before bowl season will be outside of the conference.

Wow. You beat and almost beat the Worst coach in Nebraska History. Hip Hip Hor...I can't even finish it.

The fact is, Callahan has a winning record against your team, and he can't say that about to many teams.

PS - Missouri has won before. They have won big games before, granted it's been a while. After to being to Columbia for a few games in the 90's and being to Lawrence, I am shocked that you guys still have a team. In no way do I like Missouri, but they have a point. You guys had maybe 18 fans Before Sept 2007. You had 20 but Man-giner ate 2 of them.

Also, maybe you should wait more than 6 months before talking shit when you have sucked for 50 years.

[nuclearjew]

That's essentially bullshit. If Dennis Dixon didn't get hurt (yeah I'm playing the if game), Oregon would've easily been a BCS team last year. And when you have a team like USC in your conference, it's tough to grab a BCS bid, let alone nab 5-star players when they all flock to SoCal. But I think USC became mortal last year and they should be coming back down to Earth.

You're in a more football-friendly location...where does Friday Night Lights take place again?

[ShitBreak]

Texas has always been, and always be a hotbed for 5-star talent.

The Big XII is right there, neck and neck, with the SEC for the best conference in football this year. I think the preseason love in the polls just shows that.

Although I still am pretty pissed that everyone is giving Texas Tech so much love, when in reality...they are the same team that OSU is.

Yet they are ranked in the top 15 in both polls, while OSU got one vote in the USA Today poll.

It sucks to know, no matter how good Ok. State gets, we will always be UO's bitch.

Well, to be fair, Texas Tech's O is awesome, and they had the #1 Defense in the Big 12 over the last 6 games of last year. They bring back 10 starters to that D. They Still have Graham and Crabtree. Ask much as I want to agree with you, Okie State is still the 4th or 5th team in the South. Texas Tech could win the south this year. The winner of Oklahoma TTech wins the south.

[ShitBreak]

We don't play TU, so I don't know...although TU will be good again this year.

Our chances against OU are like are chances every year...not great, but there is always a chance. With it being in Stillwater, I think we can put up a fight at the very least.

It's pretty insane when OSU could very well go 7-5 this year, or even 8-4...and be the 4th or 5th best team in the division.

I am only "chalking up" 3 losses for OSU: Texas, Mizzou, and OU.

Texas Tech is an iffy one. I honestly think we could win one of the two between Texas Tech and OU.

We have a top 15 offense in the nation, and the most underrated QB in college football. If our defense steps up, we will be a Top 25 or Top 30 team.

[willy62]

Sorry I meant Texas I should have put UT.

[willy62]

I am glad my shitty ass Kansas State Wildcats do not have to play you guys this year. We need all the help we can get.

[kevin6387]

What I don't understand is how Texas is getting so much love. Jamall Charles was there team in some of their wins last year. Nebraska and I think OSU (Mike correct me if I'm wrong). If he didn't go apeshit in the 4th then they would have had 2 more losses to the ones that include A&M and Kstate (By 20).


Redsox - you are still delusional, I know and don't care if KU fielded quite possibly the worst teams in div 1 during the 80's. When Mangino took over Stoops told him he had 4-5 legit div 1 players on this team. He has molded mostly 1 and 2 star recruits into contenders. Seriously, NU can use their history as an excuse to talk shit, but they haven't been good for years, and they don't look to be good this year.


Willy - how are those 22 Juco's working out for you. And isn't your RB depth down to guys who are like 160-175 pounds? That's got to hurt... that and losing Jordy Nelson. The big 12 is pretty happy you signed Prince to an extension.

[ShitBreak]

Yeah, Charles (and our defense sucking) killed us. UT won with a last second FG.

In that game, all Zac Robinson did was throw for a school record 430 yards, and run for another 56 yards.

[Nosebuckle]

I am going to see Michigan and Miami (Ohio) on the 6th, Go me!!

I'd go to that game to be the only RedHawk fan in attendance

[redsox39]

We don't play TU, so I don't know...although TU will be good again this year.

Our chances against OU are like are chances every year...not great, but there is always a chance. With it being in Stillwater, I think we can put up a fight at the very least.

I could be wrong, very possibly, but I thought he meant UT. then again, Tulsa would make sense as well, so I'll just STFU now.

First off, Only making fun of Man-giner's size, I cannot argue with his coaching ability. He took a team full of Tranny rejects and Broke the Top 5. I have to tip my hat. They also put up 70+ on Nebraska. another hat tip. Having a losing record to Callahan? Can't quite tip my hat for that one...

Something tells me they aren't going to score like that this year...


In any case...let's make a freindly Bet about Kansas vs Nebraska this year.

any suggestions on the Stakes?

2 part bet.

1 for the head to head
1 for the overall ranking

Willy - how are those 22 Juco's working out for you. And isn't your RB depth down to guys who are like 160-175 pounds? That's got to hurt... that and losing Jordy Nelson. The big 12 is pretty happy you signed Prince to an extension

[hospitalrock]

The Texas season could go either way this year. They do not have the experience or star power they have had in the past. Any optimism surrounds the fact that Mack hired Muschamp to revamp a pretty pathetic defense. All reports from camp indicate Muschamp is doing good things with the D. I think it will be OU with Texas coming in anywhere from 2 to 4 in the South. A lot of unknowns with UT, TT, OSU and A&M.

I'm still a bit skeptical about the number of Big XII teams that are highly ranked. Even if UT is one of them. If TT can field a defense they will be tough. I'll have to see it before I believe the hype.

Good point on Dixon's injury last year. They definitely would have made the BCS if that did not occur. Is there a challenger to USC this year?

Awesome, and how long has it been since they've won a bowl game? Like 15 years I think.

[mbslugger89]

so how many points is michigan going to lose by to a d2 team this year?

[Penguin Rick]

I cannot wait for Thursday night.

[White Rhino]

I just made my first bet on college football this year. I got washington to cover 14.5 against oregon. Hell ya bitches, I only need to make 800 this year to beat last years winnings.

[merlin13]

Why is ESPN so high on USC ? Unproven QB, no recievers, and what do they have in the backfield?

[Fletch]

Why is ESPN so high on USC ? Unproven QB, no recievers, and what do they have in the backfield?

Maybe because they haven't lost more than 2 games in a season since 2001? Maybe because every year they have unproven guys who turn out to be studs? I hate when people say it, but if any program "reloads" instead of "rebuilds"...it's USC.

[Penguin Rick]

Why is ESPN so high on USC ? Unproven QB, no recievers, and what do they have in the backfield?

They have a spectacular defense. In fact, the game between them and OSU is going to be really low scoring.

[Menace2Sobriety]

23 top running back prospects.

HAHAHA do you mean oklahoma state?

jesus that's funny

[ShitBreak]

You can just go right ahead and fuck off.

[coolguy]

i love how you broadcast that you're in "cowboy country"

hoping to post more than two conference wins this year? (baylor doesn't count)

[ShitBreak]

Yeah...I broadcast where I got my degree from. How you doin?

[coolguy]

just got one more year bro. i'm just playin around, i bet the cowboys can at least beat a&m this year for sure

[ShitBreak]

On paper, we should be able to beat Colorado, A&M, Baylor, and Iowa State. I think we could at least get close to either Texas Tech or OU.

We could start 5-0 before having to go and play at Mizzou. But I don't see any reason why we can't win 7 regular season games....which would be one step up from last year.

[coolguy]

yeah, oklahoma state SHOULD win all those games you listed.. but you have to remember that they're oklahoma state.. and so they'll bungle at least two of them

colorado's gonna surprise some people

[ShitBreak]

yeah, oklahoma state SHOULD win all those games you listed.. but you have to remember that they're oklahoma state.. and so they'll bungle at least two of them

This is the best team OSU has had in a long time, and are really flying under a lot of people's radar. I mean we are pratically the same team that Texas Tech is, yet they are ranked in the top 15.

Should be a fun year. We have the #3 SOS, so it isn't like we are playing cakewalks, like all the other fucking teams do.

[coolguy]

yeah, the one area OSU definitely beats tech is in cajones. tech's out of conference schedule is one the most pathetic things i've ever seen

[Zilchoid]

We have the #3 SOS,

How's this possible? Did Okie St. move to the SEC?


it isn't like we are playing cakewalks


When I checked, you've got Wazzu, Houston, Missouri St., and Troy on the schedule. I wouldn't call those teams world-beaters.

[coolguy]

don't overlook the big 12, zilch. don't we have like five of the top 15? having to play OU, UT, tech, Mizzou, etc probably contributes to the great strength of schedule

[ShitBreak]

How's this possible? Did Okie St. move to the SEC?

It's because we are awesome. That's why.

I didn't think we'd be that high either. But I just report em as a sees em.

We are ranked 37th, with the 3rd ranked SOS

http://www.sportsline.com/collegefootball/polls/120/index2

EDIT: Florida has the #2 SOS, and Texas A&M has the #1. Sucks to be A&M....

[Zilchoid]

don't overlook the big 12, zilch. don't we have like five of the top 15? having to play OU, UT, tech, Mizzou, etc probably contributes to the great strength of schedule

What about a team like Florida, who plays Hawaii, Miami, FSU, LSU, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Georgia?

Or Tennessee, who plays UCLA, Florida, Auburn, Georgia, Alabama, and South Carolina?

I'll grant that the Big 12 will be tough this year, but a #3 SOS ranking seemed high with who Okie St has scheduled in its first four games.

[Zilchoid]

It's because we are awesome. That's why.

If Clemson doesn't shit kick Bama, fire Bowden on the field. Don't wait. He'll understand.

[Sex Cannon]

If Oregon State can limit opponents scoring to like, less than 40 a game they'll win some games. I dont know if thats going to happen though.

How do you guys feel about Utah getting 7 at the big house saturday? I love it.

edit: Nevermind the line changed since early in the week. Michigan is only -3 now.

[Penguin Rick]

So what are you guys predicting for the national championship game? I got Ohio St. beating Oklahoma. And WVU is the team that gets snubbed out of the national championship game.

Yes, I got no SEC teams in the top 3, I just think the teams beat each other up like last year, meaning they each got 2 losses. Last year was an abberation, I think atleast two of those top 3 team have at the most 1 loss.

[bpb]

I got Ohio St. losing in the title game. To who? Who cares. As long as they lose.

[machwa]

I got Ohio St. losing in the title game. To who? Who cares. As long as they lose.


Wow I guess we are actually looking at the possibility of a team going to 3 straight NC's and losing. Someone just put the Buckeyes out of their misery....please?

If only you knew what real tailgating was.

[Clownbaby]

All I know is the national title is coming back to so cal where it belongs. doesn't matter who they're playing

[ShitBreak]

I think with the SEC and Big 12 being so damn good all around, it might be tough for a team out of them to make the national title, unless we have a bunch of 1 and 2 loss teams (like we normally do)

So it could very well be Ohio St, USC, West Virginia...someone like that

[nuclearjew]

If Oregon State can limit opponents scoring to like, less than 40 a game they'll win some games. I dont know if thats going to happen though.
Did you mean Oklahoma State? Because Oregon State generally has pretty good D (though they are prone to some lapses...).

[iKnowJohnStamos]

Wow I guess we are actually looking at the possibility of a team going to 3 straight NC's and losing. Someone just put the Buckeyes out of their misery....please?

As a Penn State fan it's always nice to see OSU be humiliated but getting to the national championship game three years in a row would be nothing to be embarrassed by...that's pretty amazing...who cares if they get pwn3d all the damn time? The way College football plays out these days, being that consistent is very impressive.

[nuclearjew]

Yes, because everyone is impressed with the Bills' legacy of Super Bowl failures.

It just adds fuel to the college-football-needs-a-playoff-system fire, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

[nuclearjew]

hahahah Stanford just kicked a FG wider than the space between Mongo's eyes.

[Gary_Busey]

I wish someone would score in the USC-NCState game. Both offenses are pitiful.

[bpb]

Erin Andrews needs more air time.

[Gary_Busey]

For sure.


I can't wait until next weekend. Got my tickets for the WVU game. I just want to sit in a parking lot with friends and grilled meat and drink a lot of alcohol.

[Fletch]

Erin Andrews needs naked air time.

Fixed.

Scoring 3 point in a half has to be killing Spurrier.

[mxlplkt]

I think we should have an SEC thread so we could just beat each other up for the the season and then merge it with the title game thread.

[nuclearjew]

hahah the announcer just called Jacquizz Rodgers "Jacquez Green". Ahhh memories.

[Gary_Busey]

Nice, 6 turnovers total in this game. Way to go offenses.

[Tiger]

osu vs. Florida rematch (2006)
this time bucks get revenge

Knowshon Moreno and Pat White

yeah but baylor likes to pwn so much they decided to fumble the ball right back to WF when they were about to score.

When have they ever been decent? I live near them so the local news coverage is dedicated to them. It's pathetic every year to hear them be so hopeful of the new season to come. They need to be sent to Division I-AA.

[kevin6387]

eh they contribute more than ISU.

[bpb]

True.



Redbeard can't be feeling to good about the Gamecocks season after a showing like this.

[Penguin Rick]

FUCKKK I hate when touchbacks happen like in the circumstance of the OSU receiver.

[nuclearjew]

Yeah, what a gay ending.

[kevin6387]

maybe the receiver should have just ran out at the 2 with 42 seconds left instead of extending.

[nuclearjew]

I forget the exact rule change...wouldn't the clock keep running if he had done that?

[Fletch]

I forget the exact rule change...wouldn't the clock keep running if he had done that?

I think under 2 minutes it stops. Otherwise the clock stars when the ball is marked ready to play by the ref.

[Penguin Rick]

maybe the receiver should have just ran out at the 2 with 42 seconds left instead of extending.

When you're on the field, you do whatever you can to get in the endzone. It's really hard as a coach because you can't tell your guy to stop extending all the way, he just needed to hang onto the ball.

[bpb]

I forget the exact rule change...wouldn't the clock keep running if he had done that?

They said they stop the clock when it reads 1:59 and below. They had an instance last night where they ran out of bounds at exactly 2:00 and the officials kept the clock running. The commentators spent a little while talking about it.

[Genius]

Not only is Ohio State not on national TV or any major cable network, they're also not on any XM radio channel. Fuck the Big Ten Network. I should not have to scour internet radio streaming sites to have access to the #2 team in the country.

[Genius]

That said...what do you guys think, home Laurenaitis jersey, or road Laurenaitis jersey? I think I'll take the home reds today, although the whites is just sexy.

[Hobnail_Boot]

Not only is Ohio State not on national TV or any major cable network, they're also not on any XM radio channel. Fuck the Big Ten Network. I should not have to scour internet radio streaming sites to have access to the #2 team in the country.
Who are they playing? And why DON'T you have the Big Ten Network. If I was an Ohio State fan (or Big Ten fan), I'd probably get it.

Youngstown State. But it should not matter.

[Genius]

LET'S GO BUCKEYES!!!

TOUCHDOWN!!!

[hoponator]

I'm waiting for the Pryor era to begin. Boeckman has to be one of the worst QBs they've had in OSU for a long long time.

[nuclearjew]

I don't know, they've had some pretty awful ones in the last 10 years.

[iKnowJohnStamos]

Did he have a cleft palate as a kid? I see his face up close and I can't decide if that's a repaired hairlip or not.

[Gary_Busey]

Finally, we fucking score. We've handed VT two fucking touchdowns.

[iKnowJohnStamos]

Bowling Green just tied it up?

[Gary_Busey]

A lot of people were picking them to upset Pitt.

[Genius]

My alma mater. Not that I give a shit about them.

[kevin6387]

ECU should be winning this game easily. I can't believe VT is even ranked with how horrible they are playing today. Sean Glennon is terrible.

[Genius]

I'm waiting for the Pryor era to begin. Boeckman has to be one of the worst QBs they've had in OSU for a long long time.
First team All-Big Ten? I'd say he's a little better than that.

[Genius]

Fumble on the goal line and Beanie is hurt. Wonderful.

[Genius]

Touchdown. Ballgame.

[hoponator]

Beanie will be out for a while if that female reporter wasn't lying. Inside ankle = deltoid ligament. That is bad news for any buckeye fan.

[Genius]

Ohio State is very deep at tailback, but not I want going to Los Angeles.

[Genius]

Touchdown Terrell Pryor, motherfuckers.

[hoponator]

With Beanie out... Ringer FTW in the big ten running game.

He's back and limping, but up. Too hard to tell if its anything big or if they were just babying him.

[Kopek]

You can still limp with a partially torn MCL.

[Genius]

He's in a boot, but not on crutches and not headed to the hospital. So it probably could have been worse.

[Genius]

You can still limp with a partially torn MCL.
Hell, you can jog on a torn ACL. But just try to cut or plant.

[Genius]

Youngstown State has a kid named Bobby Lykes-Knight. I guess he better like Bob Knight.

[Genius]

Va Tech and Pitt, BOTH in serious trouble.

[Kopek]

Beamer is having Vick flashbacks when he looks at Tyrod Taylor on the sidelines. It's okay, Frank. They're all not thugs with animal issues.

[Kopek]

Right when I type that, VA tech gets Beamer ball fucked.

[iKnowJohnStamos]

East Carolina takes the lead with less than 2 minutes left...snap

[hoponator]

The MCL (and ACL) is in the knee. He definitely hurt his ankle. If it was inner ankle it was his deltoid ligament.

[Gary_Busey]

FUCK YES!! GO ECU!!

[Genius]

Dave Wannstedt should probably start looking for a coordinator job. There should be one open by Week 11 or so.

Oh Lou Holtz... How I have missed your magnificent voice.

That...actually looked pretty good.

That was not Michigan football... so weird seeing that offense.

[Gary_Busey]

I know. Small and fast.

[kevin6387]

Time to watch Oklahoma State kick some Pac-10 ass.

too bad Gundy is calling the plays for your offense. Could have had 7 instead of 3.

[ShitBreak]

too bad Gundy is calling the plays for your offense. Could have had 7 instead of 3.

I didn't understand that either...but Gundy is a damn good play caller. He's a huge reason why our offense has been so damn good.

[Pollo]

USC is looking damn impressive so far ... 14-0 Trojans with 7 minutes to play in the 1st.

[Pollo]

wow, USC is making this game look way too easy... 21-0 Trojans with 4 minutes in the 1st.

[hoponator]

Michigan is lucky Utah is only up 2 as of now. They will pull away soon enough, but at least as of now, they are getting outplayed.

[White Rhino]

Time to watch Oklahoma State kick some Pac-10 ass.

I need them to win by 7 so I am with you. Fuck WSU and their shit hole of a town.

It didn't help that the defense didn't show up in the first half. They did give up over 300 yards compared to what 90 in the 2nd half?

[Poop Sailboat]

Give Rich a few years, I'd be confident in him.
i'm not getting down on him at all. i know this season isn't gonna be a good one.

[nuclearjew]

Erickson was before my time, but I bet those were some good years to be a fan. Mike Riley is a great coach, it's just the caliber of players that make it to OSU just aren't 5-star athletes. This year is bad because we lost our whole front 7 on D and our star RB and kicker. And our QBs are awful.

[Penguin Rick]

This is turning out to be a pretty shitty day for the ACC.
