Bored 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2006 ESPN on ABC? The hell? I already hate the new rule where the clock starts back up after a change of possession. Starting it back up after first downs is a good idea but this is overkill and will cost someone in a major game at some point. Idaho/Michigan State was fun. Idaho might actually be relevant in the WAC this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: Hearing Dan Fouts doing play by play is just weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2006 Wow Ohio State looks really good so far. But Texas looked good too. So it'll be the experienced defense of Texas with an inexperienced QB against the experienced QB of Ohio State and the inexperienced defense of Ohio State. Ah hell I'm picking Ohio State. They've got more experience and leaders on offense and the defense is nasty even if it is young. It doesn't matter if the game is in Austin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2006 I'm not exactly sure where the hype for Cal was coming from. They strike me as a team that would finish about 3rd in the Pac 10, hardly any sort of top 10 threat. Didn't their starting QB get injured before the season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2006 Actually he got injured early in the season last year and that was part of the hype was having a healthy Nate Longshore. I was going to be happy with any sort of Cal loss here but this is turing into a humiliation for the entire nation to see. I couldn't ask for anymore... YESSSSSSSSSSSSS ANOTHER TOUCHDOWN FOR THE VOLS! 28-0. Game over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2006 You know when I first saw the "ESPN on ABC" crap for the regional timeslot today my only thought as to why they decided to do this was to make the new Saturday primetime timeslot to have an extra special feel to it and have it stand alone from the regional games. But nope tune in and it's just another fucking ESPN game. Laaaaaaaaaame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2006 Did ABC Sports just completely scrap their sports division and give everything to ESPN? I don't understand what's going on. I watched Rutgers' win over UNC earlier. The Heels aren't going anywhere with Dailey at QB. It was obvious why Nebraska wasn't concerned with him transferring. Rutgers is going to have a good season; they could even contend for the Big East title. That may be a bit of a reach, but they look like they're going to have a solid season.

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2006 OU survives the UAB experience and ONLY because of Adrian Peterson. However Paul Thompson played a lot better than most people thought he would and he played better than Bomar when Bomar was starting out last season. They'll be ok this season but at this point they lose to Oregon and lose to Texas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2006 Nebraska's defense looked fantastic...but they better polish up that offense just a tad more before the USC game. They should have scored at least 2 more TDs earlier on but made some stupid mistakes. It's nice to see ND NOT manhandle Georgia Tech Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
