Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Does the Game of the Century work it's way into there? Is that in the last 35 years. Let's see was it 74? So yeah......is it on there? Oh and is there any chance of Texas Tech working their way into that 10 spot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therealworldschampion 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 They haven't played anyone. Notre Dame would whip them. Weis would so own Leach that it wouldn't even be funny. If they beat Texas next week they'll be in the top 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

therealworldschampion 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 They've played the equivalent of a Kansas State schedule. Color me not impressed. Any ranked team that has 2 losses would be undefeated on that cake schedule of Tech's. Compare Tech with Notre Dame and Ohio State. Notre Dame: Pitt, Michigan, Michigan State, Washington, Purdue, USC Ohio State: Miami of Ohio, Texas, San Diego State, Iowa, Penn State, Michigan State There is no way in hell that Texas Tech is undefeated on either of those schedules.

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 I doubt this year's OU team would be. I think USC/Texas Tech would be the first ever 150-149 shootout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therealworldschampion 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Yes they would Dama. Maybe Nebraska gives them a little trouble, but they're 6-0 on that schedule. OU's schedule has actually been quite tough this year with 3 ranked teams, one being a Top 5 team and one that will be in the Top 10 next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Yeah and could the OU from the last 2 years have handled this schedule? Yup. Can this OU? Fuck no. This is the shitty OU. Luckily we should be good when Miami rolls into town. But they'll be good too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therealworldschampion 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 I'm talking about OU hypothetically with Texas Tech's schedule. Which contains 2 I-AA teams, a bottom feeder I-A program, and 3 shitty Big XII North teams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted October 16, 2005 A coworker and I were listening to the ND game at work, and we both fucking SNAPPED when the announcer yelled "THE IRISH HAVE DONE IT!!" then they tack time back on the clock and lose. Pretty gutwrenching loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fökai 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Their [Texas Tech's] victories came against Florida International, Sam Houston State, Indiana State, Kansas, Nebraska and Kansas State, with their victories against Kansas and Nebraska coming by a combined margin of 16. They've played the equivalent of a Kansas State schedule. Color me not impressed. Any ranked team that has 2 losses would be undefeated on that cake schedule of Tech's. I doubt this year's OU team would be. Okay, there's the set-up for... Yes they would Dama. Maybe Nebraska gives them a little trouble, but they're 6-0 on that schedule. OU's schedule has actually been quite tough this year with 3 ranked teams, one being a Top 5 team and one that will be in the Top 10 next week. A statistical argument. Can this OU? Fuck no. This is the shitty OU. A retarded argument. Compare and contrast, guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 That poll on ESPN is stupid. Most people are just voting for what they saw today. I doubt most of the people voting have even seen the other games.

Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Georgia can stamp a ticket to Atlanta if they destroy Florida as I expect. Alabama's lucky that Tennessee game wasn't this week. That was a re-tooling game against an Ole Miss team that the Vols handled a couple of weeks ago. ND could have put the game away earlier, but couldn't. USC's the worst possible team to give a shot at the lead, or ultimately, the win. Both teams played extremely hard and it was a great game, but USC was the better team on the field. Now they're going to mangle everyone else on the way to the Rose Bowl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Holy shit, guys. I know USC/ND is (rightfully) the story of the day, but I was at that UVA/FSU game and I officially won't be able to talk for two days. This entire town is on top of the world right now. Al Groh and his coaches FINALLY made some adjustments and fixed up the shit that had been ruining this season, and pulled out the biggest win we've had in years. I haven't seen UVA play as well as they did today since they whomped #16 Maryland 48-13 in 2002. Wahoowa, bitches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robert 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 I just got back home about an hour ago, and seeing it live, it was just pathetic. From my view, the ref saw Bush push Leinart into the end-zone, and for them not to call it is bullshit. Just another example of the refs not wanting the team that wins all the time to lose. Same shit with Dallas, and I'm fucking hoping for Texas to play them in the Rose Bowl just to see Vince Young run over the USC defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2005 Well hopefully USC will take their loss elsewhere. They can't keep making these miracle comebacks. If not in conference they'll get hit by Texas or VA Tech in the Rose Bowl. And seriously what is Mark May's deal? I mean if you watched Gameday Final or hell anything that he was on yesterday you expected him to whip out the Cardinal and Gold facepaint. Oh and I remember Trev Alberts saying that Adrian Peterson wouldn't be a Heisman finalist not because he wasn't a great player but because of defenses keying on him and his team not being as good. Wow. He turned out to be spot on. That and the fact that OU killed Adrian Peterson in their first 4 games. I hope that people around the country don't start thinking AD isn't a good player though. The dude is hurt and the only weapon on a team with none. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
