nah, it sucks regardless of venue. they lost the last 3 games I've attended.
JMU?
JMwho?

that doesn't help Boise at all
Mr Minor isn't that your pops reffing the Bama/Penn St. game?
(lol Jokies, lol ACC blah blah blah)
Not only do they have better looking women, but now they have a better football team? Ouch. Hokies, lol.
Sorry blat, don't know what is going on in your neck of the woods :?
Florida is NOT looking solid either. But they are 2-0 so can't complain much.

VT does have some hotties. It's the truth.
So... UVA did not get completely embarrassed by USC last night. They actually didn't look as terrible as I thought they were gonna be.
We'll still prob be the worst team in the ACC, anywho.
Oh wait, the ACC is a joke...

USC is crap imho. If oregon doesn't win next weekend we have boise state ranked at #1? Who had arguably played one of the weakest schedules this season. If oregon loses to USC we have yet another tricky college football season on our hands.

Not shocked, but a little surprised. They must be closer to getting Harbaugh than we know.
i've thought that harbaugh is a long shot, but youd think that they have something in the works if theyve fired rodriguez.
one thing i am certain of - they will hire a "michigan man" this time, because i think the a.d. was ready to give rod 5 years to get his system on track, but the donors up there are a fickle bunch...
word all day on the radio was that Harbaugh was not going to take the Michigan job if it came open. pretty sure he's going NFL

in all seriousness I'm not sure what his thought process is here. he knows his coach is gone, and he knows he was a lock for #1 pick. I don't care what shitty team he would be going to, there's no way he can do better next year given the uncertainty with the CBA
^^^pretty sure Luck is staying at Stanford because his mom wants him to finish his degree (not that I blame her, he'd better be able to get another job if the NFL is locked out). It's not like he's at Alabama or something where the degree is essentially just a piece of paper. This kid is at Stanford and therefore that degree means a hell of a lot more than it would at many other schools. And I think I heard that he's got a badass insurance policy for if he gets hurt next season (like career-ending type of hurt)
plenty of players finish their degree from the nfl.

So if he sustains a terrible injury this year at Stanford, he will have a sizeable sum of money and an architecture degree. Whether or not this guy ends up in the NFL, he stands to do something he loves and make a damn good living at it.
who are you, his f'n mom?
#1 pick in nfl draft is not equatable to being an architect. how many architects graduate every year? how many people get picked first in the nfl draft?

I don't really follow college footbal but watching tonite. Question: are those Oregon's normal uniforms because things are nuts!
between helmets, jerseys and pants they have like 90+ uniform combinations so there's no such thing as normal with them.
yeah they have some sort of Nike connection, I think someone on their board is an alumnus?

Yeah, I think the owner of Nike or whatever is Oregon alumni. Iirc, he also bought a piece of land from the university, and built a student/athlete tutor center (without telling them what he was building), then sold it back to the university for $1.00.

That is pretty raw.
Also, I noticed even the linebacker's knee braces were neon yellow! So awesome.
But I don't watch much football, so I would have to say that was the best college game I have ever seen. (From what I can remember anyway)
Maybe next year Ducks.
Was hoping for Oregon to win so i could hear that JPhishman's face melted, sorry Bro.
Was an exciting game though nonetheless. Since i dont follow college football, has Auburn's D-Line been that tough all year to stop Oregon's run gam like they did? It seemed like to me Oregon just couldnt get the run going at all.
Oh and imo, Cam Newton wont do much in the NFL. Put it in the books.
I have little love for Auburn, but i always pull for the SEC in such situations. So glad they beat those pansy boys in their chartreause socks and panty hose-head pieces.

That makes sense as we'll probably be fighting to draft the guy.

He'll go higher than 10

That would be worse than if we had drafted Tebow. Both grade 'A' douches.

Auburn overall vastly outsized Oregon. I couldn't believe Oregon kept trying to work the run game to the inside, especially on that goal line stand where they kept getting stuffed.

I agree, thats when i turned off the game.
I lost $20 on this shit. :shakehead:
i wasnt pulling for either team, but as a fan of football, i thought that call at the end on the runner not being down was completely whack. no way that a ref on the field could see that the knee wasnt down when he was tackled. dude running the ball thought he was down, he got up and thought the play was over. that play shoulda been whistled dead. i think that if a defensive player grabs an offensive player and throws him to the ground and rolls him over, he's down, no matter what part of his body touches the ground or doesnt.

Totally whack, but it was right. I'm with you that it was ultimately a disadvantage to Oregon. I get amazed sometimes at what the refs can see in real time.
no way a ref knew the knee wasnt down in real time, i cant buy it. no way.
even if he did, i still think the guy shoulda been down, regardless. a defensive player grabbed the ball carrier and threw him to the ground, rolled him over, and let him go. the offensive player thought he was down. whistle shoulda been blown.
When the ref's job is to look for the knee hitting the ground and where the ball is when the knee is down, there's no reason to blow a whistle just because a couple of players thought otherwise. If a whistle had been blown, they would be taking a lot of shit for calling a play dead that wasn't. I get that being thrown down like that would signal that he was down, but the rule clearly states that a knee has to touch the ground (and that was one hell of an effort by the auburn player to keep his knees up)
he didnt know he kept his knee up!
they had to review the TD a couple plays later and recall it when the ref didnt see a knee go down, so the thought that a ref is infallible is silly, they have reviews for a reason.
knee down or not, the guy got tackled and both teams stopped, including the runner w/ the ball. everything else is a "technicality" in my opinion and no way to watch the nat'l championship go down.

No doubt, it got to the point where they were literally banging their heads against a wall.
Then they finally did something different with the shovel pass and lo and behold they scored.
Of course by that time it was too little too late.
:-(
Hell of a game. I hate that it came down to that play but I'm not gonna point to that. They beat us. Super proud of our guys though. Amazing season.
Keep your eye on us folks. We'll be back.

yes, there has to be a point where it is either black or white, where either something is (play dead) or isn't. in this case the knee didn't touch the ground, the play isn't over. Take it back to the safety. That oregon player busted his ass to try and get that ball outside of the inzone when he was tackled, but he just didn't. You have to draw a line somewhere, even if it takes some of the game out of the game, which is why I get where guyforget is coming from, it is kind of a bummer when a play that is so clutch comes off because of such a small black and white issue, but it is what it is. Ball wasn't dead, period.
oregon played a hell of a game. i believe i will find myself rooting for the ducks at some point in the future.
still hard to believe I graduated from a college that just won the championship. my parents actually drove from Mobile, AL to watch the game. funny, more then anything else I wanted to win it so my parents didn't drive all that way to watch Auburn lose. :-D
Two things are for sure: Auburn will have a bad season next year :tte:, but a team from the SEC will win the BCS! :wtu:
Texas AT&M going to the SEC?? :-o
