College Gameday Thread: Week 2

[draftguru151]

Discuss week 2 games here.

Solid ACC match up Thursday, Clemson @ GT.

Noon games kinda suck again. Central Michigan/Michigan State might be a decent match up. Notre Dame @ Meeeeeeeechigan looks like it could be a solid shoot out, South Carolina/UGA, Vandy/LSU and Miss St/Auburn are some SEC match ups. USC @ Ohio State is easily the game of the week.

[Smooth Criminal]

Might look like the game out the week, but i'm not that optomistic. I'm expecting an easy win for USC and that defense. As long as they get the run game going and don't rely on Barkley, they have an easy time beating OSU.

[YAYareaRB]

Byu Cougars Son!

[Geo]

I know USC/Ohio State is the marquee game of the week, but for some reason, I'm actually looking forward to Notre Dame/Michigan a lot more.

Agreed i know it's not a bigger game on the bcs stage but im interested to see if Michigan can start competing and Notre Dame looked awful good in week 1 but Michigan is a tougher opp

Because ND/Michigan won't be a slaughter

[CashmoneyDrew]

I really want payback against UCLA for last year's debacle. I'm talking like, 28 points or more payback.

Don't get ahead of yourself, just take a win.

[OregonDucks]

Gameday in columbus this week?

[Turtlepower]

Cincinatti against Oregon State should determine how well the greatest QB prospect ever, Tony Pike, does against a very new Oregon State defense.

[JFLO]

Gameday in columbus this week?

Yep, I'm not sure if I'll be there or not.

A couple of my buddies are going to make a sign that has Terrelle Pryor's head eating Matt Barkley's head. TP's mouth will be able to move up and down and they are going to put Barkley's head in an out of it.

Sounds kinky, but you know what I mean.

BTW, I'm taking Notre Dame to destroy Michigan. No homerism there, just legit thought.

[Smooth Criminal]

Gameday in columbus this week?

Yep Gameday will be just north of the Shoe. They were there last year for Penn State and it was ridiculous all day long.

[CLong4Heisman]

I dont think Tater Tot is going to be able to handle Tenutas blitz packages. I like ND 31 Michigan 13.

[wicket]

I dont think Tater Tot is going to be able to handle Tenutas blitz packages. I like ND 31 Michigan 13.

I wish I was as confident as you are. If michigan held on a bit better to the ball last time around it would have been quite a close game. Not saying I think ND will lose cuz I think we will win but its gonna be a really tough affair probably. Playing in the big house and having big10 refs wont help either. Im curious how well our OLine stacks up against michigans DLine cuz we looked pretty solid against two pretty decent pass rushers from nevada but although they are solid (the only real solid thing about their D) they are no brandon graham.

Go Irish!

[P-L]

I'll be surprised if Notre Dame blows out Michigan. We outplayed Notre Dame last year in South Bend, except for turnovers and penalties. Those two killed any chances we had at winning. This year, both teams are improved but the game is in Ann Arbor. If Steven Threet was able to play well against Tenuta's defense last year, I don't see any reason to believe Tate won't be able to handle it this year, with an improved offensive line. It should be a close game.

The only thing that really worries me about Notre Dame are the receivers, Floyd and Tate. Warren is good, but he's prone to pass interference calls and I expect him to get one or two against Floyd, although Notre Dame won't be getting the borderline calls like they did last year. Cissoko has come on real stong as well, but I'm not sure he's fast enough to handle Tate on his own and I don't trust our safeties. If Brandon Graham plays half as good as he did against Western Michigan, that should be enough to make Jimmy uncomfortable and take pressure off of the secondary.

[Babylon]

I think Notre Dame will win this one because of a little more experience at the widouts and the QB position. Not sure the Irish could stop a strong running game but i dont know if Michigan has that. Look for the Irish secondary, especially Harrison Smith, to have a big game.

[Marino13]

I think a strong running game is something we actually do have. Against Western Michigan, we didn't really use a go-to guy but had over 200 rushing yards. Carlos Brown, Brandon Minor, and Michael Shaw are all decent backs, and Vincent Smith has looked great in every camp. So IMO the run game isn't a big problem.

The thing with Notre Dame that scares me is the passing game. Warren and Cissoko will get roughed up a bit by Tate and Floyd, but what scares me is the depth behind them, and having to rely on Stevie Brown covering TEs now.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

I know USC/Ohio State is the marquee game of the week, but for some reason, I'm actually looking forward to Notre Dame/Michigan a lot more.

Agreed. It's the most important game of the year for ND imo. Tennessee/UCLA is another game I'm looking forward to.

[aNYtitan]

Really am interested in the upcoming weekend. Gotta find a way to get my physics report done in the morning so I can catch ND versus Michigan. Given that I live in NY, there is not a lot of regional action except for Rutgers and they kinda showed versus Cincy that its going to be a down year. I think this game will put Claussen further in the Heisman discussion (though the USC will probably be the big one that will either crush his status or make him a legit contender). I also want to see USC v. OSU, cause they have perhaps the most hyped QB's in college football. I want to see how Barkley can do against a team that can take away the run, and I want to see if Pryor can step up his game versus a team he could face in a national championship

[Smooth Criminal]

OSU couldn't take away the run against Navy, I doubt they'll be able to slow down USC's stable of runningback. If USC stays committed to the run, they'll get the win.

[aNYtitan]

I dunno, it may be more of they just couldn't stop the option. I'd like to see how they do versus a Pro style running attack.

[CashmoneyDrew]

Don't get ahead of yourself, just take a win.

I'm not getting ahead of myself. I'd want to spank them even if we were a team that's supposed to go 0-12 this year.

[Don Vito]

Rebs get a bye this week.

[sbh15]

I really want payback against UCLA for last year's debacle. I'm talking like, 28 points or more payback.

I think this game will show where you guys are... I expect you to win, but by how much will be the real display of how far you've come.

[YAYareaRB]

The athleticism of Florida State scares me.

[DragonFireKai]

Cincinatti against Oregon State should determine how well the greatest QB prospect ever, Tony Pike, does against a very new Oregon State defense.


Getting ahead of yourself there, huh?

[TitanHope]

I think this game will show where you guys are... I expect you to win, but by how much will be the real display of how far you've come.

I'm expecting a win solely because the game will be in Neyland. After whomping WKU 63-7 the previous week, attendance will be around at least 105,000. That can be a huge advantage over a team coming from the west coast. Back in '06, a highly favored and ranked California team came in and got thrashed by the Vols, and the final score was only respectable because the Tennessee coaches took their foot off the gas. If UCLA gets the similar "deer in the headlights" look, I doubt Kiffin will pull back - not with Florida next week.

I also think that this game would be the perfect trap game had Tennessee won that close game at UCLA last season. But since they lost, their focus will be on redemption rather than their SEC opener in Florida the next week.

Also, kinda off topic, but UCLA has some ridiculously hot cheerleaders. Like, no joke.

I'm going to have to go to UCLA

[critesy]

auburn vs miss st can only go up from the 3-2 showing of last year. haha

[Brent]

I really want payback against UCLA for last year's debacle. I'm talking like, 28 points or more payback.
Thought you guys were playing Memphis?

[SuperKevin]

I'm going to be watching Michigan/Notre Dame for sure. I usually hate Notre Dame but I find myself liking Jimmy Clausen. Maybe it's because I'm hoping someone in that family amounts to something.

[CashmoneyDrew]

Thought you guys were playing Memphis?

Nah, UCLA. We don't play Memphis until like November or something.

[thetedginnshow]

We're going to win!

[YAYareaRB]

We're going to win!

Who's Duke playing this week?

[OregonDucks]

As a duck fan I am very nervous about the purdue game. Granted its at autzen but last year they gave us a run for our money. I cant wait to see if we come back stronger after that blount thing or weaker. As for the USC game usc is gonna make osu look like garbage. Its gonna be like last year.

[jnew76]

Who's Duke playing this week?

Army, and Army is favored by 2!!!

[HindSight]

OSU couldn't take away the run against Navy, I doubt they'll be able to slow down USC's stable of runningback. If USC stays committed to the run, they'll get the win.
You say that like Navy sucks at running.

[Smooth Criminal]

You say that like Navy sucks at running.

I know Navy always has a great run game, but USC has a much bigger, stronger OL and a better group of runningbacks.

Ohio State showed me nothing on defense that made me think we had a chance of slowing down the USC offense.

[djp]

auburn vs miss st can only go up from the 3-2 showing of last year. haha

I've got Mississippi State +14 in that game. I think they keep it close enough. I'm a believer in Florida's system when it comes to college football.

[M.O.T.H.]

South Carolina will beat Georgia. We may need the defense to score a few points but, they're taking this one.

I think he's referring to the Vols.

I'm going to the Utah-SJSU game this weekend. Any particular prospects you guys would like me to keep my eye on?

Guys I'll be watching:

Utah RB Matt Asiata
Utah DE/OLB Nai Fotu (He's my bro!)
Utah Passing Game (QB/WRs)

[CashmoneyDrew]

Yup, I'm referring to the Vols playing UCLA. Middle Tennessee is indeed playing Memphis this Saturday. It's a "black out" game. How cool and original.

yeah for sure i can see like a 20-17 game or something this year.

http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x223/nswillin/ucla_cheerleaders.jpgI will consider it respectable if UCLA can keep it within 14 points. They surprise people at home (only because most people think they stink), but they're a mediocre road team and nothing they have seen within the Pac 10 will compare to the hostile environment they are about to face. Kiffin seems like the kind of guy that if can win by 50 points or more, he's going to put the petal to the metal and do it, not because of Florida next week...I think he'd want to do it just because that's the kind of guy he seems like. The "trap" argument is the only think UCLA has in it's favor, but Kiffin knows all about UCLA being able to pull off an upset. Looking forward to the game though.

[SuperKevin]

I just found out I have to spend my Saturday in Richmond doing a fundraising event. No college football for me :(

[ToldLikeItIs]

Bryan Bulaga is out against Iowa State.

Ouch. I wonder how much it will hurt them

[ToldLikeItIs]

It certainly won't help.

That's the news as of now. I can't say I'm real big into this injury thing.

[SuperKevin]

I'm probably going to watch the Clemson/Georgia Tech game instead of the NFL game tonight. I can't help but watch the triple option when it's on TV.

I will flip back and forth because I have money on GT -4.5

[JRTPlaya21]

Spiller v Dwyer. Boy do I love those runningbacks.

[Babylon]

You turn it on at 7:30 (4:30 pdt) and you get Lou and Mark May blathering on and on. That's depressing.

[SuperKevin]

That attempt to kick away from Spiller backfired horribly

[SuperKevin]

Kyle Parker is such a bad quarterback. Willy Korn should have been the starter

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Morgan with the big stop.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Lol that was crazy. Bad throw there.

[wicket]

what an ugly throw on the interception

[SuperKevin]

I like that they are trying to run between the tackles with Spiller but it's not really working out

[BufFan71]

i love watching the triple option

[SuperKevin]

Georgia Tech has ugly cheerleaders.

[JeffSamardzijaIRISH]

Oh wow, Georgia Tech is so good.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

That was quick.

[SuperKevin]

I <3 Anthony Allen. I think he's just as good as Dwyer. He's definately faster

[BufFan71]

82yd td



this is why i love the triple option

[wicket]

Georgia Tech has ugly cheerleaders.

well that left one was butugly, kinda unreal but the rest were just mweh not ugly

[SuperKevin]

CJ Spiller is so dangerous. I hate to say it but I see him going to New England for some reason

[JRTPlaya21]

Good ol' Anthony Allen. Definitely missed seeing you. That option is trouble.

[JRTPlaya21]

Don't forget about Roddy Jones.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

57 yard fg attempt eh?

[KCJ58]

what is up with clemson special team unit figure it out

[Sniper]

LOL Special teams fail.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Lmao fail right there.

[SuperKevin]

Go home Clemson. Just go home

[KCJ58]

what a terrible terrible play by clemson

[tjsunstein]

Hahaha wow. Were they ready or what? What a move to split the first two defenders!

[Geo]

Clemson brought a knife to a gun fight. They never had a chance.

[SuperKevin]

Tarrant=best PR in the country?

2 straight games with a PR

[draftguru151]

Hahaha stupid Clemson.

[SuperKevin]

Clemson brought a knife to a gun fight. They never had a chance.

Knife is overestimating this Clemson team. They brought a pillow

[SuperKevin]

Derrick Morgan is so good. I can't understand why people seem to forget about him when talking about DEs

[tjsunstein]

Salt in the wound. INT.

[Finz99]

I've never laughed so hard during a game. Clemson is horrible.

[KCJ58]

Derrick Morgan is unblockable

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Can Clemson do anything right?

[trekindude]

Clemson is getting owned. Has Dwyer even done anything for GT yet?

[SuperKevin]

Georgia Tech is going to average 8 yards a carry tonight. I can feel it

[SuperKevin]

Clemson is getting owned. Has Dwyer even done anything for GT yet?

They've only had 4 plays on offense so no

[KCJ58]

well hopefully the NFL game can be close

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Thank god for Ricky Sapp. Nice pick.

[tjsunstein]

Jonathan Dwyer is my favorite RB prospect McFadden. I think Dwyer has a real shot at top 15, maybe top 10.

He got his foot in? Well done. Momentum shift? No.

Stick to running the ball, GT.

[SuperKevin]

Georgia Tech needs to stop throwing the football.

[SuperKevin]

Jonathan Dwyer is my favorite RB prospect McFadden. I think Dwyer has a real shot at top 15, maybe top 10.

That first sentence makes no sense.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Looked like Gilchrist's elbow was down before his foot.

[tjsunstein]

Georgia Tech needs to stop throwing the football.

Yes, thank you. I get the whole "catch them off guard" bit but you don't throw into double coverage when you have so much momentum. Throw it away or take off, he shouldn't have even considered that throw in my opinion.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

GT should just run it every play lol.

[tjsunstein]

That first sentence makes no sense.

Lol, "since" should be in there.

I was glancing up and down at the TV while typing so my thoughts got ahead of what I wrote.

[BufFan71]

WOW



big special teams trick play

[SuperKevin]

They need to put the kicker in at QB more often

[tjsunstein]

Omfg. Clemson, gtfo.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Can Clemson do anything right?

Apparently not.

[Finz99]

A. Maz. Ing.

I love the play calling!

[KCJ58]

clemson = done

[Sniper]

******* awesome.

[SuperKevin]

That was the exact opposite of what Clemson did on special teams

[Todd Bertuzzi]

At least this game ended before Pittsburgh/Tennessee starts.

[KCJ58]

at 1st i thought he was throwing it away i was like wtf? then i saw that WR I'm like oh **** what a great call

[KCJ58]

Kyle Parker wishes he stuck with baseball full time

[SuperKevin]

Does Georgia Tech even have any other WRs on the roster or did they just convert them all to DBs?

[JRTPlaya21]

Man do I love Bebe Thomas! Went to highschool a few miles from my grandma's house.

[JRTPlaya21]

Oh I didn't forget Derrick Morgan one bit SuperKevin. What a monster.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Morgan does it again.

[JRTPlaya21]

Well happy trails college thread. Time to go watch the big boys play.

[tjsunstein]

Sucks for Clemson to be down so early. It's going to be "triply" difficult for them to come back with Georgia Tech eating this clock.

[SuperKevin]

The only thing I hate about Dwyer is that he has a horrible body. He looks so pudgy

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Georgia Tech is going to average 8 yards a carry tonight. I can feel it

You overrate Clemson's run defense.

[SuperKevin]

Sucks for Clemson to be down so early. It's going to be "triply" difficult for them to come back with Georgia Tech eating this clock.

I see what you did there. Clever

[tjsunstein]

Anthony Allen, well done. This is just a poor poor showing by Clemson.

[KCJ58]

Clemson can't tackle isn't that what the old but young ball coach said they had to do to win? yea

[SuperKevin]

Seriously. I love Anthony Allen. I don't see why he can't be a first round pick also

[SuperKevin]

Kyle Parker is garbage. Get him out of this game

[KCJ58]

Put in Willy Krack Korn & I don't care

[Race for the Heisman]

Put in Willy Krack Korn & I don't care

Why didn't he win the starting job anyway?

[BufFan71]

The only thing I hate about Dwyer is that he has a horrible body. He looks so pudgy

he also runs pretty funny.. its not as bad this year

but his strides are VERY short

[JRTPlaya21]

Willy Korn should have been in to start. He is the second coming of Tate "the great" Forcier.

[BufFan71]

21-24
....

[Race for the Heisman]

Interesting. Much more so than the defensive struggle the NFL gives us.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

What happened? I thought GT had this on lock down.

[JRTPlaya21]

So I jump back and see it'a a 3 point game. Wow.

[wonderbredd24]

Nesbitt is really setting the bar for QB play

10% completion percentage

[BufFan71]

wow Nesbitt is god awful

[SuperKevin]

Bring in Jay-bo Shaw

[JRTPlaya21]

wow Nesbitt just stop throwing please.

[KCJ58]

who would have tought GT & Clemson would flip jerseys during halftime

[KCJ58]

wow that was a great game 30-27 good game from both teams

[Tha Wootster]

GT won wow. How did Dwyer looked in that game ?

[TACKLE]

I got a lot of respect for what Clemson did. They played GaTech on a short week and with their offense, that's probably the one team in the nation you don't want to play on a short week. Add in a young QB who has never started and they played GT admirably. Their defense was great in the second half. Completely shut down Dwyer and they played the triple option very well. Obviously they needed to make a few more plays at the end of the game but they showed me something tonight.

[tjsunstein]

They didn't cover. fml. It was 5.5 and they won by 3. Why?

[SuperKevin]

GT won wow. How did Dwyer looked in that game ?

Not great in my opinion. Anthony Allen looks awesome though

[Race for the Heisman]

GT won wow. How did Dwyer looked in that game ?

Okay. Georgia Tech seemed determined to pass on second down (Nesbitt: 3/14 - 83 yards - 2 interceptions) and Clemson played the option pretty well, so he wasn't a viable play call too often (a lot of 3rd and long, for example). In that respect, with someone like Dwyer, you just have to feed the beast and wear the opposition, which GT didn't do at all.

On the other hand, CJ Spiller kind of impressed me. Seemed more willing to take the two yards than dance in the hope of 50. He also made some plays split out wide.

Jerrard Tarrant got beat at least once (probably more, I had to switch streams a few times) but he had two PBUs and a PR for a touchdown. Actually he's a sophomore. One to watch for I guess.

DeMaryius Thomas showed his beastliness in the few opportunities he had. Everyone expecting another Boldin is probably not too far off, although he looked like he rounded a few of his routes to me.

Brandon Thompson (Clemson DT #98) had a pretty good game (another sophomore).

Derrick Morgan started great but faded a bit. Don't know if that's conditioning or motor or just being on the field a lot but he could be a first day pick.

Probably a few I missed but I have to run to class.

[SeanTaylorRIP]

CJ Spiller looks a lot more physical this year. I think with a pro line and pro passing game on the next level he could be special. He obviously has elite top end speed but he displays improved toughness between the tackles and he's very dangerous receiving the ball. I'd buy him over Dwyer right now tbh. Both have holes in their game, but I see Spiller's skills all translating to the next level. He can also be an impact kick returner from day 1.

[Brent]

Glad I watched this instead of the Steelers game, because this game was so good. Parker looked great after having such a poor start.

[Race for the Heisman]

Glad I watched this instead of the Steelers game, because this game was so good. Parker looked great after having such a poor start.

This impression I got was than when there was a viable run threat, Parker did fine. When everyone and their mother knew he was passing, he couldn't come up with the goods. I mean, yeah, he had a few good throws, but I honestly wasn't that impressed. He's got time, though.

[JFLO]

I'm getting pretty pumped for the game tomorrow. I'm not going to GameDay but I'll be heading to the Shoe around 5 or 6...a little out of my mind.

I haven't heard too much about the team's demeanor or plan around campus, but it's been pretty intense around town, especially lately. I would say from Sunday to about Thursday, a majority of the people were more worried than confident, but you get a vibe of intensity and swagger around campus now.

[Race for the Heisman]

Darrell Scott's looking good...

[wonderbredd24]

Darrell Scott's looking good...

After Ed Cunningham said the other guy was gonna win the job hahaha

[wonderbredd24]

I feel bad for Cody Hawkins... if he and his teammates cannot come through and win a lot of games this year, his dad could lose his job

[KCJ58]

Darrell Scott's looking good...

the is the only + thing i can say about that game, also we got to practice our no huddle situation with our young linemen, but overall the game was bad, so many bad plays on defense, also two nig plays called back due to dumb holding calls both coasting us huge field postion. Darrell Scoot did looked good & I think proved to Coach Hawkins that this guy is the #1 RB on this team and Summler & Stewart will have to compete for the #2 job, hopefully with a longer week of practice this up coming week can get a win against Wyoming at Folsom Field

So.......who's gonna be the first big 12 team to put up 100 on Colorado?

Man. Ohio State should watch 300 before the game. I just did and I'd definitely be amped up to defend the home turf.

[Notredameleo]

Go Irish!!!

So.......who's gonna be the first big 12 team to put up 100 on Colorado?
Well, their next three are Wyoming, WVU and UT... I wouldn't be shocked if they lost all three. Barnett is out of there for sure, at the end of the year. I'm just glad we get to play them.

I saw a sign that said:

"Hellen Keller is Lou Holtz Translator"

WOW.

Talk about two birds with one stone.

50 Minutes till UCONN gets slaughtered

[The Unseen]

Trojans are gonna get slaughtered!!!!!










yes I'm talking about the not-important trojans

[ToldLikeItIs]

Iowa has several injuries.

[Axl Rose]

Manti Teo is stating for ND against Michigan, I don't know how I feel about this. Hes faster and more athletic than Toryan Smith but also a freshman who could be prone to mistakes. Michigan runs a real tricky offense, I hope hes ready.

he'll be starting but most surely wont play every down. With toryan nicked up its not really a choice though.

lol, game day is always good for some really good signs. My favorite, is one I probably can't say here though, it has some naughty language.

[Tha Wootster]

Wisconsin OL is kind of pretty big.

Wisconsin OL is kind of pretty big.

Wisconsin's O-Line is always kinda big.

[CashmoneyDrew]

Florida is struggling a little bit so far.

[Hines]

Penn State cannot consistantly run so far this season and it disapoints me.

[jballa838]

Fresno State is going hard pause.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Nice strip by Lang.

[Geo]

Penn State cannot consistantly run so far this season and it disapoints me.
The Royster TD was great though, the catch-and-run.

[SuperMcgee]

Davonte Shannon is still really good.

Mario Henry can go **** himself. Good luck seeing the field again.

Dorin Dickerson is killing us in the redzone. Our secondary is great at tackling but this is getting ridiculous. 14 points given away because of Henry's butterfingers.

[JT Jag]

Uh oh, Florida...

[sbh15]

WWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW.

This is pathetic.

[SuperMcgee]

Naaman Roosevelt after the catch >>>>>>>> just about everyone else

[Todd Bertuzzi]

If only Troy's receivers could catch a ball.

[sbh15]

For a defense that returned all 11 starters, uh, they kind of suck today.

Oh, and Emmanual Moody has lost his chance at any playing time anymore.

EDIT: not suck, but, look awfully average.

[Geo]

We've got a barn burner in Madison, WI!

Cue the greatest mascot in all of sports:

[JT Jag]

Poor Austin Silvoy. I played football with him. He's gonna get a lot of grief for that.

[the_legend_killer]

Now CMU is starting to roll, let's go Chips!

[thenewfeature06]

57 yard bomb

[SuperMcgee]

Naaman Roosevelt!!!!

Sick catch and he was gone! Reached behind him, snared it one-handed, split the defensive backs while he was turning to bring it in and just shot up to the endzone.

[Babylon]

Riley Cooper forget baseball and concentrate on football please.

[sbh15]

Since I said "pathetic", that's how Troy has looked.

Now Florida looks back to normal.

[Vikes99ej]

Lee Corso's reasoning for a pick he made during the pre-game show:

"New coach. New defense. New offense. BIG."

[JeffSamardzijaIRISH]

Daryll Clark throws such a pretty ball

[Forenci]

UConn is dominating UNC defensively. It's pretty awesome.

Lets go Huskies!

[SchizophrenicBatman]

Why the hell is UNC ranked? They have no offense this year after losing Nicks, Tate and Foster

[SeanTaylorRIP]

Penn State's O-line is horrific.

[thenewfeature06]

Why the hell is UNC ranked? They have no offense this year after losing Nicks, Tate and Foster

WE have a run game and talented defense..thats why were ranked

[Todd Bertuzzi]

UNC won't be ranked for long...

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Naaman Roosevelt after the catch >>>>>>>> just about everyone else

McGee, I think it's time to replace that Starks sig with a Roosevelt one.

[SuperMcgee]

McGee, I think it's time to replace that Starks sig with a Roosevelt one.

Wouldn't be able to capture his sexiness. Roosevelt's always been the best player on the team.

[Babylon]

Considering the conditions in Florida it's pretty much a blowout.

[wicket]

damn i really wasnt expecting uconn to win that. i guess its good for nd if they win from uconn

[thenewfeature06]

Penalties are taking a **** on the heels :/

[SuperMcgee]

Nice drive by LeFevour and Co. to tie it up.

[draftguru151]

North Carolina ties it up at 10 with 2:30 left. Uconn's defense disappeared.

Finally Houston gets some touches. 76 yard drive here we go d

[wicket]

great punt by the wisky punter

[Hines]

Penn State better improve their run game before Big Ten play starts.

[draftguru151]

North Carolina takes the lead on a safety after a holding in the endzone was called!

[SuperMcgee]

These penalties by Northwestern could almost ensure OT.

Very good comeback by E. Michigan to get it to this point, anyway.

edit - HUGE missed FG by Indiana. Drive down for the lead, Hiller.

double edit - NW hits the long FG anyway.

[iBoldin]

Vince Oghobaase and the rest of the Duke D-Line are having very nice success penetrating Army's interior line.

[thenewfeature06]

UNC escapes!

[Vikes99ej]

Wow, CMU made that look easy on MSU

[Forenci]

UNC escapes!

..but I thought we were going to get slaughtered!

[thenewfeature06]

..but I thought we were going to get slaughtered!

ha i know! WIN IS A WIN THOUGH EH?

[Sniper]

******* Christ, Central.

[Vikes99ej]

LeFevour has trouble throwing the ball in the endzone.

[P-L]

CMU was so close. I would've liked to see them go to overtime. Michigan State is not that much better than them.

[Sniper]

ZOMGZ CENTRAL GETS THE BALL!

Let's go LeFevour!

[P-L]

Holy crap!!! Go Central!!!

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Omg they got the onside kick.

[Vikes99ej]

That **** was sick.

[SuperMcgee]

Come on Central! Western just ****** up their chance on the doorstep.

[Sniper]

3 man rush from MSU. When did Scot Shafer get hired?

[Babylon]

Cant advance an onside kick? didnt know that.

[Sniper]

Antonio Brown is a manbearpig.

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Antonio Brown is a manbearpig.

That was a great catch.

Quoted for truth!

[diabsoule]

Great game between Fresno St. and Wiscy

[Todd Bertuzzi]

Offside! That was a big penalty.

And another timeout.

[SuperMcgee]

[P-L]

Lol, Michigan State is so stupid. What a boneheaded play.

[diabsoule]

It's good!

[Sniper]

Eat a massive bag of ****, Dantonio!

[P-L]

It's good!!!!

[SuperMcgee]

YES! Aguila!

[Vikes99ej]

Haha it's good!

[diabsoule]

That was sooooooooooooooooooo close.

[CashmoneyDrew]

Nice kick.

[Vikes99ej]

God Michigan State sucks. Have they ever been worth a ****?

[Sniper]

2009 records vs. the MAC

Michigan 1-0
Michigan State 0-1

Eat dick.

LOL Sparty fail to end Sparty fail.

[Babylon]

God Michigan State sucks. Have they ever been worth a ****?

[JeffSamardzijaIRISH]

That is why they're Michigan State.
