Don't get me started on the 1994 season, that was loads of bullshit.

You seem to forget that Stoops was throwing for the endzone with 18 seconds left in the game. Don't forget that this is a nationally-televised games and its against Notre Dame, so of course Leinart is trying to look good.

Well I guess all the ND alumns will be calling for Willingham's head again

So much for ND staying in this game, USC just got another touchdown 17-10.

TD USC 10-10, and I think Keith Jackson's a little liquored up

I demand more camera shots of the USC Song Girls

FG by Notre Dame, 10-3.

Yeah because nothing defines the state of Oklahoma better than a good ol' dirt burglar. Then again, I'm from New Jersey so my state could be defined as a politician taking bribes or by union strikes.

Missouri intercepts an Iowa State pass at their 7 yd line in OT and Colorado is going to the Big XII title game.

Thank God Musberger and Danielson are doing VT/Miami next week, I don't think I could stomach a Colorado/Oklahoma Big XII title game with Musberger probably making about 50,000 Northwestern references.

That's because they have a ton of rivalry games to play (USC, Michigan, MSU, Purdue, BC) and also NBC probably wants high-profile opponents for home games that they broadcast(explaining games with Tennessee, Florida State, etc.)

I'll give Ed credit for Felix Rodriguez as I thought that was a decent move, but then again there was the yearly shitty reliever deal with Todd Jones.

I don't know Al, the overpowering suckititude of Ed Wade may override the garbage that Bowden and Minaya can churn out. Maybe the NL East should just be called "Schulerholz, Beinfest, and Dumb(Minaya), Dumber(Bowden), and Dumbest(Wade)."

Same shit, different look for the BCS basically.

There were actually rumors about a year ago that Temple was being sought by Conference USA because they wanted to get into the Philadelphia TV market, but those got squashed when C-USA wanted Temple in their basketball league too, and Temple was definitley not leaving the Atlantic 10.

It's pretty much been said around here that Temple will probably drop football rather than move down. Attendance isn't an issue because they don't have anyone showing up for games. The program I believe has lost the school money for about 10 years now.

It's nice for them to play games in the Linc, but it hasn't helped at all. I think they'd be better off moving down to the Atlantic 10 conference, where they play basketball, in D-I AA, even though it would be quite the financial hit on them

I live in the Philadelphia area and I heard that UVA brought about 20-30K in fans to that game against Temple in Philly. Wali Lundy graduated from a high school in the area too(Holy Cross in Delran, NJ.)

Texas folds against anyone with a pulse, they have done that throughout Mack Brown's tenure there(Examples being any of the OU games between 2000 and now, the 2001 Big XII title game where Chris Simms had meltdown #3000, and last year's Holiday Bowl against Washington State in a game that they were big favorites in and got beat.) Funny note, Texas fans were probably overjoyed when Mackovic got fired and replaced with Brown, but Mackovic has actually won Texas' last conference title while Brown had the famous 2001 chokejob.

Bowling Green did go 8-2, but remember it was in the MAC. But the 8-2 record gets counted as the same as Georgia's 8-2 in the computer rankings, which is a whole other issue I have with the BCS. *Interesting note: Auburn was supposed to play Clemson this year, but Clemson bailed. That's why Auburn had to add The Citadel at the last minute.*

The next 2 games are huge for the Eagles, as the first one is for the division title against the Giants, and the second one against Green Bay will be a very good test to see how they'll be able to fare in the playoffs. I'm very interested in seeing how the run defense does against Tiki Barber and Ahman Green now with the changes Reid made. If they can do a decent job against the run in the next 2 weeks, that will be a good sign for January.

Except the fact that OU got torched for 35 points and needed a missed Hail Mary to win their game while Auburn was down 6-0 on the road in a rivalry game against one of the top defenses in the country and came back impressively in the second half, with a garbage time TD being the only reason that Auburn didn't win by 2 TDs.

I wouldn't quite say its all Pac-10/Mid-Majors supporters here. I mean you have some Big Ten and SEC fans here as well.

How will you be able to tell? By that time, Vitale will have taken his usual position of having his head up Mike Krzyzewski's ass.

I think that after this season, preseason polls should really be done away with, since they're only in place so the media can hype up the season. Did anyone really believe that Florida was the 10th best team in the country this year?
