Well that should shut the Notre Dame fans up for a bit. That was a hell of a good game along side the UCLA/Tenn game. And wtf happened to OK.St.? lmao...@home as well.

I am really... REALLY surprised that Carroll is going all Tressel with Barkley so far. Short slants and outs on the outside, a fly pattern, nothing over the middle. I know he's a freshman but Carroll has never been shy offensively.

Tressel loses the game, sure Pryor didn't go out and win it but WHAT A FUCKING PUSSY YOU ARE TRESSEL jesus, you wonder why you can't beat top teams? Your pathetic desire to not lose the game doesn't cut it against top teams. Fucking stupid fuck. The outcome of this game was pretty clear when USC goes for it on 4th for the td and Ohio State settles for 3 in their own building in the same situation. Fuck you Tressel, fuck you very much.

Quoted for Damn Truth. I was thinking the exact same thing. Closer than some here would have let us believe it would be, but I thought it was a given seeing how we were playing at home and not in USC's building.

Three classic games in one weekend... love this game.
OSU/USC - regardless of outcome, it was a great game to watch. ND/Mich - fuck them both, but god damn that mich kid at QB looked clutch and i love hearing the hot air from every ND fan thinking their team is back go *poof*. UCLA/Tenn - Sloppy game, but still a see-saw battle.
I fear for LSU...they can't afford to squeak by in these gimmes. Makes people nervous.

As a Wolverine, yesterday was awesome.
Michigan State choked. OSU choked. ND lost. To us. (we have lots of rivals :)

Brother's engagement party was last night and there were several OSU fans there watching the game. They were all less than pleased when we watched the same play run 3 times in the red zone. Gee, wonder why it didn't work after the first time.
We flipped back to the Cincinnati game for a few plays during Time outs/ commercials, and each time we did we got to watch a scoring drive against a really, really pathetic looking Southeast Missouri State. I decided it was some sort of Karmic justice when the game ended 70-3 and I learned SMS had run up the score to 72-3 against their previous week's opponent, Quincy.

Not kicking the field goal from 53 was another pussy move by Tressel since Pettrey is a stud that can hit them from 60. Hell, since Rodriguez has a quarterback now it could be a 3 loss season.

Closer than some here would have let us believe it would be, but I thought it was a given seeing how we were playing at home and not in USC's building. The awful 3rd and short and 4th and short failures from the previous week against Navy were probably weighing on his mind (OSU was brutalized in the press over that) even though the difference in their Offensive and Defensive lines was pretty much night and day compared to the previous week (for most of the game anyway). This coming from a U of M guy, should actually be an interesting game this year for a change.  All I can say is, In Forcier We Trust.

I'm probably the only one here that will find this hilarious, but I'm inflicting it upon you anways: 2 UT boys were watching football on TV with hound dog Smokey. Vol fan #1: Ole Smokey is the smartest dog in the world. Vol fan #2: Yeah, what tricks does he do? Vol fan #1: Every time we beat Vandy he barks, every time we beat Kentucky he rolls over,... and every time we beat UGA he plays dead. Vol fan #2: I love it.....What does he do when we beat the Gators? Vol fan #1: We don't know, Smokey is only 5 years old. Bwahahaha! I hope the Gators put 70+ on Kiffin's punk ass. Go Gators!

So tonight we see if Miami is truly back in some sense of the word or just beat an overrated FlaSt team. I am hoping for the former. And who schedules a bunch of frosh and sophomores to play this kind of opening schedule...@Fla St / Georgia Tech / @ VaTech / OK?  ------------ edit: color me impressed. Still a rought schedule ahead, but great start for Harris and the boys down there. Wish I was still in Coral Gables... I bet the Grove was hoppin' last night.

So besides Tenn / Florida, any other games of note today? (edit) Not that that game is going to be remotely competitive.
So, Georgia / Arkansas, Texas / Texas Tech, USC / Washington, and ND / Mich St. Not too bad of a Saturday...

USC/Wash is going to be better than people suspect I think. As for the nd/MichSt game... I think if ND loses, every game after will be deemed Weis-watch.

Utah/Oregon and BYU/FSU should be decent games.

I'm not convinced BYU is all that good. And FSU played Miami pretty tight. BYU is good, but they are sloooooow. TCU tore them a new one last year based almost exclusively on their fast defensive ends. I think FSU may have a shot if they are able to pressure Hall because he does not react well to it and tends to throw interceptions when he gets rushed.

Ugh. The Ute prove you can have a +3 turnover margin and still be down in the last 2 minutes of the game.

No kidding.
My football prognostication is waaay off this year. But hell, FSU needed last minute scores to beat Jacksonville State University last week, a D I AA team that got throttled the week before by Ga Tech.
Didn't see this coming, at all.

Well at least my weekend is not a total loss with the pummeling the Zoobies took. I should root for them against non-conferemce opps but I just can't do it.

Georgia is making SEC games look like WAC games.
We're setting offensive records I'd love if it weren't for the fact we're giving up 40 a game and taking 100 yards in penalties. How the fuck are we winning???

Cal-Minnesota was making me  for a while there. In particular the pass interference call where there wasn't even any contact didn't help my mood much, but it all worked out in the end. The ESPN commenting crew we got for that game was AWFUL too. With USC losing to UW I guess that puts us in the driver's seat for the Rose Bowl? Until we lose to Oregon next week.  Well at least my weekend is not a total loss with the pummeling the Zoobies took. I should root for them against non-conferemce opps but I just can't do it.
I have that same problem with USC.

Oh my fuckin' God, my father and I FLIPPED OUT over that call. It was hrrbl. I don't normally bitch about officiating (I cannot say the same of my father), but even I said that was bullshit, what the fuck are they even seeing, etc. I enjoyed the game, but Ingmar only likes when Cal wins in a blow out. Otherwise he's convinced they'll lose ANY SECOND.

As for officiating... would someone explain to me the rule about "simulating" a knee being the same as taking a knee? I don't give two shits about TexTech or Texas, but watching the end of the half and seeing Tech attempt some trickery only to have it fucked by a "rule" is just beyond me. Does that mean no matter what you do, the officials can conclude whatever they wish about your play? Seems to me to be a bullshit rule. Anyone know when and why that clownshoes rule is in the books? That Cal game was crazy style, wish it would have been against a bigger team than Minn, but still was pretty good. I think Georgia is letting things all hang out now that they are not grooming a QB for the NFL. big points =

I think the simul-knee thing is a new rule, like the completely assinine "no helmet to helmet contact" rule. It's supposed to protect the players from getting hurt, plus it is to prevent UNDERHANDED TRICKERY or some crap. The no helmet-to-helmet thing annoys me just because a) sometimes you're not going to be able to help it, therefore b) it's going to be enforced stupidly.

A) Steve Sarkisian is a coaching genius
or
B) Ty Willingham is the worst coach to ever disgrace a sidelines
Personally I am thinking more B than A, but Sark does have the lads playing much harder and better than last year. Ranked for the first time in 6 years! It is a sad state of affairs that I am excited about that.
