Heh. Tater Zoobs and Zoobs Original Recipe sign a twelve year series. So at least one of them will lose every year!
Maybe the NCAA should re-institute the tie!

Wow South Florida, way to look like a bunch of unconditioned bitches on national TV. How the hell did they get a #16 ranking?

Well to be fair, it dropped down into the upper 40s last night and those kids from FL don't do well in the cold.

Why can't my family take the hint that I hate going to the ASU/UofA game when it's at Sun Devil stadium? I'd rather be tossed in a burlap sack with an angry doberman.

That is the coolest looking stadium, at least from the freeway. Is it a stadium issue, a 'holy fuck I am outside in Arizona and it's not the dead of winter' issue, or a 'the fans are complete douchebags' issue?

That too. It's huge and you can't see shit. Smells roughly like 20000 college students just pissed themselves. Parking is usually hell of long walk away. So, if you lose, you've got to trek back through a swarm of poorly educated, drunk nitwits hurling their best junior high insults at you. Last time we went was the first time I've ever heard my dad swear at someone.

Last time we went was the first time I've ever heard my dad swear at someone. I don't know what you all are talking about. Sun Devil Stadium (or Frank Kush Field or whatever they're calling it these days) is an awesome venue for football, and ALL the seats between each 10-20 YL feature great views. Only downside is sitting on east side during September / October days games (which only really happened when the NFL Cardinals played there). Yeah, it is a long swirling walk uphill. And it does smell like vomit and piss in the walkways / concession areas. But I don't go to games to chew candy cotton and lick popsicles -- go to just watch the game.

I've been to every stadium in the (old) Pac-10 except OSU and UA, and the only places that I found worse to watch a game in as a visiting fan were the Coliseum and whatever the stadium up in Pullman is called*. I could see better in Pullman, but their fans were the biggest assholes I've ever seen in any stadium anywhere and honestly the place is basically just a big high school stadium (or was). The only especially good thing I can say about Sun Devil is at least it doesn't have a track (that's what ruins the Coliseum, other than the USC fans/band - the shallow slope of the seats plus the track means the angle of view is horrible for most of the seats.)
*Stanford Stadium was pretty bad before the recent renovation, but it is fine now.

So I think I can go out on a limb and say that Ohio State may have played the worst game I've ever seen.

Clemson might be the ACC champ. The game of Clemson v. Georgia Tech will be interesting. Auburn  Thanks for putting my Dawgs right smack in the middle of the SEC East hunt again. Bama's defense gave up a bad TD right off the bat and decided to start tackling.

 Alabama is absolutely the most violent football team I've ever seen. Not a particularly good night, and sucks about taking Brantley out on a good tackle but just got his leg bent the wrong way by a really pissed off 260 pound linebacker named Courtney Upshaw. Oddly enough, that play should have never happened because the previous play SHOULD have been a fumble and a Bama D touchdown. Fuck you, SEC refs. I swear to God, the Auburn / USC game should have had yakity sax playing in the background. Stephen Garcia is the most bipolar QB I've ever seen. When he's on, he's awesome. But man, when he's bad? My 5 year old son is a better qb. He's just more bad than good most of the time. Alabama v LSU is going to be a game...

HAHAHAHA I saw him on the bench when I was at the poker room, but the sound was down so I wasn't sure if he got dinged up or not. I love it. Utah...wow. That has to be their worst game in years- they just trod on their dicks all game long. Washington really didn't play very well and cruised.

Be fearful of Auburn and Alabama. The rest of your games are gravy town.

It feels like a trap game for whatever reason.
Bama / LSU will be outright nasty. I am much more calm about the Auburn game than I am about the Ark game.
