2011-2012 college football thread v. SEC circle jerk

Dude that PSU stuff hasn't been proven... just kidding.

With so many lame bowls, it's amazing Boise didn't play a better team. There's not many good games before Jan 1.
 
^ interesting, and I can see this being played out in that way, sadly. so the sanctimonious NCAA only "cares" about protecting their "student-athlete" aka "cash cow" when it's only within their limited, peripheral scope aka vision

I didn't read all 40 pages, no. I just tried to understand the crux of their argument, and realized what their sanctions (Bowl Ban and even MORE scholarships thrown out the window) meant for the future of my program and I moved on. I actually think that the punishment fit the "crime," or as much as it could when it's such a HUGE crime to trade gold pants for tatts

do you have any idea of why these guys were so pissed?
 
because it wasn't as rough as USC's punishment

basically they were mad that the NCAA doesn't understand 'precedent' or 'consistency'

True.


But USC got punished so harshly for something so minor because they dragged it out for five years, made the NCAA Infractions Committee look foolish in the public eye, and actually made them work.

It's best to not defend yourself, and in fact cooperate with the NCAA rape. Programs who cooperate should get off with light penalties for just about anything, while schools who make the NCAA's job a job will get assraped for half a decade. USC's misery has only just begun, next year is the year that the lack of depth will become apparent (take it from somebody whose first memories of the Canes were the probation years, where we suffered similar scholarship reductions).

OSU will be just fine. These penalties will keep them out of a bowl next year, but they will not hold them back. There shouldn't be a single game lost due to these penalties.

Considering Boise State received similar penalties, I'm guessing Miami will lose about 9-12 scholarships over 3-4 years and face one more year of a bowl ban (maybe with the bowl ban). Most of the allegations against Miami have been so wrong that the NCAA isn't even charging the kids, with Duquan Jones (basketball) having the worst allegation in the sensationalized article against him being cleared by the NCAA and Miami to start playing. This guy just took a bunch of kids to some fancy dinners, and if selling jerseys is a crime then that is too, but he didn't do it with the universities consent and the university had been under control for 3 years prior to the article, in addition to cooperating fully (before the article even came out). I'm not nearly as worried as I was at the beginning of the season.

I don't know what the NCAA plans to do with PSU. I don't want to touch that one with a 20 foot pole.
 
I will agree that USCw got the business end of that verdict. however, one should also view the USCw VS tOSU situation with some perspective... the cash-money involved with the Trojans seriously dwarfs the meager sum involved with the Buckeyes. I know this isn't strictly about money (or so the NCAA should lead you to believe), but...
 
yes axl... its all a big conspiracy by a weak but well-connected cadre of treacherous backstabbers are secretly orchestrating the suppression of the just and noble heroes of history.

you're a tOSU nazi.
 
face the numbers

a stack VS 250 large

plus USCw wasn't very helpful with the NCAA when they conducted their investigation. that will get you in some shit with them
 
axl wants to ignite a global war against creampuffs and reestablish the global B1G TEN caliphate by flying planes into mike silve's house and the ncaa compliance offices.

cuz he's Ohio bin ladin.
 
please betch. if I'm Osama bin Laden of the Big Ten, then you are George Bush Sr. of the SEC

speaking of the Big Ten, I agree with KC Joyner of ESPN (ugh, first time I'll admit that) in that the Big Ten will have the most glaring success of all other conferences during this week of Bowl Games. despite sadly not being represented in the NC game, the conference is just so good top-to-bottom I don't see it going the other way

it's a moment like this

that makes me love you

football we are not back to number one yet, give it time

but athletically speaking, and fuck it, ACADEMICALLY, big ten is the fucking leader and legend of the ncaa

the mecca of wrestling and hockey
 
^ what does bin Laden even mean? and I'm happy to see George Bush Jr of the SEC report to this thread ;)

I DO have to see that Toledo VS Army bowl game was TONS of fun to watch. there was not a lack of offense, to put it lightly. Toledo had a big lead early and then Army came back and was an extra point attempt away to tie the game with seconds left. then, the Army coach tries to go for the win by attempting a fake-extra-point. and he fails miserably. I appreciate a guy going for the win, but if I were a player under said Army coach I would BE PISSED. again, I understand going for the win, but I think that if you're going for two after a TD you should just line up and go for two - screw that fake-extra-point

seriously - how many times does a NCAA team practice a fake point after??

and now we are subject to Cal VS Texas. two has-been programs, and I believe these teams are a year removed from playing a 2 year, home-away series against one another. I have a feeling this might be a good footbaw game. come think of it, I believe that this game kinda is the launching point of getting to the entertaining bowl games, finally

ya'll agree with me on that one??

I think Air Force would hate you for this comment.
 
Yea first decent bowl games of the year, and will get even better going forward.
 
this just in: Les Miles is underrated and the SEC gets no respect

while Les Miles wins AP COTY

sorry to dig up old bones, but I just had to comment one more time about how completely retarded that statement was
 
and this is his first one, after years of being a top tier coach, including a recent nc. just wanna remind everybody here theres a difference in being retarded and arguing with big ten retards.
