Recommended Posts

Oregon's Keith Allen drops a wide open pass to put the Ducks well in field goal range on 4th and 10 and Cal will escape with the win.

Callahan sure is doing wonders in Lincoln, that's for sure

 

ISU in the Big XII title game maybe? Who the hell would have expected that

Yes Tennesse is still pretty much a lock for the SEC title game with Kentucky and Vanderbilt all that is left on their schedule. All today's loss meant is they have to win the SEC title game to go to a BCS bowl as their chances for an at large bid went out the door today.

 

Notre Dame all but locks up the Gator Bowl with today's win.

 

It's really annoying when Fox Sports uses home announcers for national telecasts. Watching Stanford/Arizona State and all the announcers can do is lick ASU's nuts even though they are losing.

 

Texas is getting their ass kicked by Oklahoma State right now, 28-7.

It looks like Ok. St is crushing Texas 28-7. I never get the hard on the polls have for Texas. It's like the other day, I was watching a game, and the announcers were complaining about how Utah hasn't beaten anybody, thus they shouldn't be considered for a BCS Bowl. They proceed to pump up Texas, despite the fact that other than a win over Texas Tech, I can't find any win that even looks remotely impressive on the schedule. Wins over a fading Missouri? A struggling Arkansas team? A bunch of random jobbers and Baylor? Wow! Somebody get them a BCS bid, pronto!

So who else thinks ASU was overrated?

 

*Sees Texas getting whipped by OSU*

 

So much for OU's win over an "elite" team

 

Edit: Ah this should've went in the OU thread, could someone move this there?

What does that have to do with ASU being overrated? It has NOTHING to do with it.

ASU just took the lead in their game, and no one is more of an example of the term "overrated" than Texas.

Yes they are. But it still has nothing to do with ASU.

If you think I was taking a jab at USC for beating ASU I wasn't.

I was at the Virginia/Maryland game. It wasn't even really close. If this is the team that shows up against Miami next week, the Cavs have a serious chance.

 

Georgia Tech defeats NC State, knocking the Wolfpack to 4-5 and putting them in big-time danger of missing a bowl game. Ouch.

Some more thoughts: oh my god the Big XII North is awful. Whoever wins the division will most likely have 4 losses. It seems very, very possible that the division winner could be 6-5. Yuck.

 

And speaking of the Big XII, Texas has looked absolutely incredible the last quarter and change. It's now 42-35 Longhorns. They're playing perfect football, and while I still don't think they're #6 in the nation good, they're making an argument for it.

Damnit Stanford's bowl hopes go down the drain as ASU scores with nine seconds left to win the game. The hail mary at the end of the first half was just a killer. Stanford wasn't expected to do much but this season become a real dissapointment with all the promise early in the season but three tough losses that they could have won (Notre Dame, Oregon, and now tonight) have ended their hopes. They can still be bowl eligible by winning their final two games but that includes winning the Big Game against Cal and you can forget that.

 

With UCLA being upset by Wazzu today there is a real chance the Pac-10 will only have four bowl eligible teams. The conference is just too damn even after you get past USC and Cal.

Wow wouldn't this be a bizarre circumstance for the biggest upset of the college football season. Beavers up 3-0 and driving.
