College ball

crs has set in, i have to start early.

nothing specific as yet, but we've got time to come up with something



last year's bet with flyer? if i say no, he won't believe me, after all he's paranoid.....can't say yes since lord knows i don't want to bite that....... best say no and claim you have no idea what he's talking about!



NO, don't know anything about that, you are paranoid.

[Jackrabbit379]

Yeah, way too early.

No telling who's going.

[Jackrabbit379]

So, what about now?

Oregon St lost. Does that mean that USC will play in the Rose, or are they still in the race for the BCS Title?

OU went over Texas in the BCS rankings. It aint right, but funny.

Bama, and Florida will be good. I'm thinking that Florida will run away with it.

Wonder how much more crazier it will get..


Did yall hear about Pete Carroll? Ya know, USC/UCLA play this week. UCLA is the home team, and Pete Carroll wants his team to wear their "home" uniforms.
They said that he lost a time-out in the first half, and a time-out in the second for that stunt. Like USC will need any time-outs.

[Mr. Ford95]

Yes, if USC beats UCLA they go to the Rose while OSU gets sent to a Toilet Bowl game even though they tied USC for the PAC-10. Ain't it great the Beavers and Trojans tied together. USC is a 33 point favorite last I saw.

Guarantee the Big 12 changes their tiebreaker rule to what the ACC and SEC have. Who'da thought they would have had such an odd case this year in 1 division though? SEC and ACC take a 3 way tie and toss out the lowest rated BCS team in the tie and then use the head-to-head result of the 2 teams left to determine who wins the division. Means, Texas Tech had no shot and Texas would be the division champ, not OU.

Florida hasn't met a D as good as Bama this year outside of Ole Miss. Ole Miss has a D much like Bama does and we all remember what happened to Florida in their game against Ole Miss, they lost in a tight one.

The Carroll thing is funny and actually it's an old tradition. I'm surprised the PAC-10 won't let it happen without a penalty since UCLA isn't tossing a fit about it and actually would love to revive this tradition with USC.

[ronjon619]

The timeout and the uniform thing is unreal. That's why a lot of people hate Carrol. He knows his team will hang 50 on the Bruins and he just doesn't give a ****. That NFL flunkie is a superstar in LA.

[Snowman7]

Well after this weekend we should be able to work on that bet V!

[Jackrabbit379]

The Pac-10 is almost as bad as the Big-12. Oregon St beat USC, yet USC is going to the Rose (if they beat UCLA).

How crazy is that! I try to keep up every week, but every time I turn around, the BCS is changing, and screwing up.

[Mr. Ford95]

Love what UCLA is going to do if USC loses TO's.

First-year UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel not only approves of the concept, he said he’ll call a timeout immediately after USC’s forced timeout to level the playing field.

[vavega]

calling a timeout, now that was a class act.

OK and FL?


btw,

[Mr. Ford95]

That was hilarious in the USC-UCLA game. The ref seemed genuinely pissed off about the uni thing and then UCLA concurrently calling a TO. He didn't seem very amused by it at all.

Unless something crazy happens, like Mack Brown calling in a hundred favors to voters, it's OU-FL for the NC. Texas would need a miracle to stay ahead of FL or surpass OU. Really, that throttling of Mizzou by OU helps Texas' case to get a rematch with OU. It shows just how good OU is and then add in that Texas was able to beat them.............wonder if the computers pick that up and it's enough to keep Texas ahead of FL? Wouldn't that cause a big ruckus down in FL.

Dontcha know that would throw a kink in the hose.
OU set a record for hanging 60+ points on the board for 5 straight games.
It was looking like Bama was having some good luck, but guess not.
I havent checked, but I'm sure it will be OU-Florida, and I wonder if OU will make that 6 straight games, scoring 60 points.
Florida is tough, but I think OU will win it. I'm not sure if Teebow is fast enough for that Sooner Defense.
I was watching some of the USC-UCLA game. So I guess ole Pete Carroll decided to wear his home jerseys.

[Mr. Ford95]

You know, Florida has a good D but they have yet to face an attack like OU has. Now matter how you try to defend the pass, Bradford is just too dang good and his O-line is very good at protecting him right now. Throw in his scrambling ability and he is just like Tebow, dangerous. So you figure you can snuff out their passing game and you got OU pinned? Wrong, they just load up the run and shove the ball down your throat with several backs. This could be the highest scoring NC game ever seen if OU's D plays like they did against Texas in the 2nd half.

[Jackrabbit379]

Florida does have a super fast, hard hittin defense. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like the SEC likes to run the smash mouth football, but not quite like that weird spread that Bob Stoops runs. As tough as Florida's defense is, I'm sure they will have their hands full. Florida's secondary is quick, and they cover really well, but Bob Stoops has many weapons.
If OU's defense can shut down Florida, OU should pull away with it. Florida also has a lot of weapons, and they are fast. OU went to sleep against Texas in the 2nd half. If that happens against Florida, it could get ugly.

[Jackrabbit379]

Well congrats to the dag gum stinkin Gators.

Some game. OU kinda stunk up the place.

As much as I dislike Florida, it was good to see David Nelson score a touchdown. David Nelson is from Wichita Falls. Kinda weird how he went to Florida, with all the schools around here.

Football season is over.. Now what?

[Snowman7]

Yeah JR Superman wears Tim Tebow jammies! I'm no Florida fan either but you have to admire their QB. Not just his physical skills but his character and mental approach too.

[Jackrabbit379]

Yes Snowman. Tebow is something to see. Whether you like Florida or not, Tebow is a site to see.
I just hope he does well in the NFL. A lot of great college quarterbacks hasn't done well in the pros.

[Mr. Ford95]

What the heck system is he going to be in when he gets to the NFL though? No team currently has a QB that enjoys running over LB's instead of sliding down or hopping out of bounds. When he does get to the NFL, whomever takes him will have to toss out their current offensive system and bring in a new one that can use his LB size the same way Florida has done. Remember though, these are grown men, they won't be afraid of him, but jesus, the defense's won't be ready for him to come bulldozing thru the line.

[Jackrabbit379]

True, Mr Ford, so true.
He doesnt make his way to the sideline, nor does he slide. He lowers his shoulder just like a fullback. On the other hand, these guys in the NFL hit a little harder than the college kids. When ever he decides to go pro, I just hope that he realizes that it isnt college.

[Hawkjr]

Tebow might as well have fun playing QB in College.. When he get to the pro's he will be a FB or TE.. If he goes to TE he will be an All-Pro.. But Vince Young was a way better Athlete and QB than Tebow.. NOW LOOK AT HIM!!!

[Midnight Flyer]

OU quarterback Sam Bradford has announced he'll return for his junior season as well as some of his teammates. Could we get another OU/UF re-match in January 2010?
