This Week in College Football 12/26 - 12/31

Recommended Posts

MY GOD what a finish in the Sun Bowl. Oregon State came back from 14 down with 8 minutes left, scored the second TD with about 20 seconds left...then WENT FOR THE TWO POINT CONVERSION AND MADE IT.

 

Mike Riley has gigantic hairy balls for making that call.

Way the fuck off topic.

 

My cousin got a KU football shirt for Christmas from his mother that he hasn't seen in 3 years. I hated that shirt so much that I took it back and got him a Southern Cal shirt.

 

I'm a bad person.

I swear Kevin Kolb has been at Houston for 6 years. Good day for unappreciated excellent QBs, as both Kolb and Kentucky's Andre Woodson are having/had great days. Woodson really should have been 1st team all-SEC.

 

I loved the call at the end of the Oregon State game. You're already a four loss team, it's the bowl game, and you've had Missouri on their heels for the whole quarter. Why not? Now Oregon State can write 2006 down as one of the best years in team history, upsetting USC, beating Oregon at the last second in the Civil War, and winning the Sun Bowl with a huge-nuts call at the gun. Pretty good season for a team that's so historically bad.

Great way to be mediocre Big XII. Fuckers embarassing my team by having to play in your conference.

 

A lot of OU fans call into the local radio saying they root for the Big XII to win games and it drives the radio host crazy saying that you should want other schools to lose since you have to recruit against them.

 

I say you want them to win because otherwise your team looks bad for beating these guys. You have to listen to people like Mark May and Kirk Herbstreit say "Well yeah they won the conference but it's not a good conference so they're not that impressive!" So that's why I want the conference to win. Of course these losers are underperforming in the bowl season as usual. Ah well the conference still has two national titles in the BCS era which is pretty good. But this bowl season proves it's still a two team race between OU and Texas and it looks like it might always be a race between those two teams.....unless Nebraska does something.

 

Win a freaking bowl game! Gah!

Woohoo! Maryland, SC and Kentucky all likely wins today.

 

I'm really starting to love bowl season now.

Leena, I can see where you're coming from in regards to cheering teams in the conference. With me, it really depends on a few variables: 1. Who is a fellow conference team facing in a bowl? 2. How bad do I hate the conference rival? See, with stuff like USF playing East Carolina, I'd rather USF just win that one since it'd make the Big East look kinda bad (and thus lessen U of L's beatdown of USF) if ECU won. Stuff like Rutgers vs. Kansas St. though? I was hoping KSU would somehow win that, mainly because I want Rutgers to endure as much humiliation at this point as possible.

 

It's a win-win situation for me. If a conference rival wins, I can be pleased the conf. is doing well (unless it's someone I detest under any circumstances). If a conf. rival loses, I can be amused by it.

I copied a Damaramu post. :(

 

The only reason I give a damn about these games is for gambling purposes.

So we had the greatest comeback in D-IA history earlier this year and now Texas Tech ties the old record of 31 points, setting a new record for a bowl game.

 

And ya Glenn Mason just lost his job.

I'd root for anyone in the Big East, because every Big East win makes the conference stronger, which in turn makes Rutgers that much more legit in people's eyes.

Just when I thought I couldn't get worse at predicting, I pull a 5-0 day out of my ass.

 

I also root for fellow SEC conference teams, unless they are Tennessee or Auburn for obvious reasons.

Damn the last couple of days have made up for the piss poor early bowl games. Although not of the epic proportions of last night's comeback, Virginia Tech blowing an 18 point lead with their defense is pretty shocking.
