^ you like both Bama and Auburn??

the Michigan VS Notre Dame game was a classic, entertaining match, though I hate to admit it. I will give Michigan's home audience, usually degraded as more of a wine-and-cheese type of crowd than the usual manically crazy college type of Big Ten crowd, did get it up for their first night game in history. Denard "the Tard" Robinson only went 11 for (approx) 24, and although 4 passes were interceptions, another 3 or 4 were touchdowns. I hate to say it, but Denard might be the most entertaining player in college today, despite him being like a sloppier, more poorer man's Terelle Pryor

Michigan's coaching staff made some HORRIBLE decisions. if they were smart, they should have at least double-covered ND's WR #3, who seemed to mount 100 yards at the end of the 1st quarter. also, Michigan could barely score in the first half. I know they are trying to implement a pro-style offense instead of Rich Rod's spread-style offense, but they should have opened up the game a la backyard footbaw for Denard much earlier than the 3rd quarter

these type of glaring coaching mistakes make me cringe! I am a mere footbaw everyman and I can point them out with ease

and is it just me or has college footbaw forgotten how to play defense? look at our top three games, all had to have averaged about 40 points per game! at least I will get some defense tomorrow, with the NFL (well at least with the teams that Roger GODell hasn't made profane)
 
tyler bray threw for 405 yards, 4 TD's and 0 INT's yesterday.
82% completions.

we had a running game.

we had a trick play.

we had a defense.

i was very happy.

FUCK YOU FLORIDA. IT'S HATE WEEK MOTHERFUCKERS.
 
I agree axl, it pisses me off to see a coach have a player like Denard and not use him effectively. Switch to the pro offense gradually without crippling your dual threat QB.
 
Fresno State blew another lead this week, this time against Nebraska, FML.

bray earns sec offensive player of the week honors
by ut sports information on september 12, 2011

in tennessee vols football

ut quarterback’s record day noticed


knoxville – after a dominating performance against cincinnati, tennessee sophomore quarterback tyler bray has been recognized with sec offensive player of the week honors, the league office announced monday.

Bray, honored by the sec for the fourth time after claiming three freshman of the week accolades in 2010, completed a career-best 34 passes in 41 attempts for a school-record 82.9 percent (min. 30 att.) in ut’s 45-23 win over cincinnati. The kingsburg, calif., native became just the second quarterback at ut (peyton manning) to throw for 400-plus yards with the fourth-best effort in school history (405).

The 6-6 sophomore threw for four touchdowns, extending his school-record and current sec-best streak of consecutive games with at least two touchdown passes to eight. He also rushed for a score, giving him the only five-touchdown effort in the sec this season.

His 405-yard performance ranks fourth nationally and first in the sec, while his 34 completions in a game sit atop the conference and are tied for fifth in the fbs. 282 of those yards came in the first half alone, the fourth most by a vol signal-caller in a single half.

Bray is the first ut quarterback to win sec offensive player of the week since jonathan crompton for his efforts against georgia in 2009.

Bray’s 698 passing yards are the most by a ut quarterback through the first two games of a season, breaking the previous record of 651, set by manning in 1997.

Also honored by the sec were:

Defense: Mark barron, saf, alabama

special teams: Melvin ingram, de, south carolina

offensive lineman: Alvin bailey, og, arkansas

defensive lineman: Rob lohr, dt, vanderbilt

co-freshman: Isaiah crowell, rb, georgia and josh clemons, rb, kentucky

I know we don't have any Texas Longhorn fans (which is amazingly amusing considering their high product worth Nationwide), so I will try to speak for them. I've always been a fan of Texas, and Mack-Daddy Brown, and hell, a bunch of things Austin (from the weird, blues, and the bat-tunnel). it looks like former impotent Texas QB Garrett Gilbert is fired, after almost losing to unranked BYU and looking pretty terrible while doing so. apparently, the younger brother of famed Texas QB Colt McCoy, Case McCoy, and freshman David Ash are going to split snaps under center from now on

let's focus on Case McCoy here... I usually try not to make fun of people but I do believe he looks a little Goonies-like

i fucking hate texas.

but mainly because i have a shit load of friends that went there and are die hard fans.

they are some of the most arrogant entitled and horrible fans around.

i don't pray, but i was praying for BYU to take that game.
 
so Boomer Sooner or FSU?

I think FSU is going to be great next year, but this year isn't their year quite yet. Boomer Sooner
 
footbaw on a Thursday??

anybody else watching this LSU VS Miss State game? both are ranked, and both are playing some good defense despite a first couple weeks of NCAA and NFL that seemed to be ignoring just that - defense. I guess we can always count on Old Les to for something...

also has anybody ever been to a Miss State Bulldog game? finally, they seem to have a nice facility along with the rabid fan-base that is worthy of any big-time collegiate program. however, I do believe that the Cowbell would ruin the experience. is it annoyingly-loud or just loud-loud?
 
Yea i watched the LSU line obliterate MSU's.....Looks like Les Miles is bring some old school Big Ten smash mouth football to the SEC. Our defense is NASTY....only 123 total yards to a ranked team......no matter how you slice it....thats impressive. And the LSU O plays just the same way as the D....Very smart conservative yet right down your throat type of football. Its not pretty but very effective so far. The LSU-BAMA game is gonna be a defensive slug fest.....Bama's D is pretty sick as well

never been to starkville for a game. but i have plenty of experience with those fucking cow bells. they are annoying as fuck. especially when you're staying in the same hotel with a bunch of their fans.

one year they were in the peach bowl and i was staying at a hotel downtown seeing panic for new years. those fuckers and their cowbells. blugh. thank god i was fucked up out of my skull.

MSU has a good team this year. they played auburn and lsu very well.

that's exactly what I was thinking. Les Miles is a Michigan guy, after all, and it looks like he is molding this LSU team into the teams that dominated in the Big Ten glory days (like tOSU and Nebraska back in the day, or even Wisconsin today). I mean holy shit, the LSU safeties are as big as/not much smaller than the LSU linebackers

LSU i was not impressed with your performance

man, I dunno about that. sure, the game was close or the first half, but if you watched the second half LSU pulled away by a couple touchdowns (despite having a VERY mediocre QB) and looked like head and shoulders the better team. sometimes you see LSU just run and run and run the ball in the early parts of the game and you wonder - is Les Miles an idiot just banging his head against the wall? well, no. this is smash-mouth football, my favorite hybrid, and those 2-3 yard run plays in the first half turn into big 10-20 yard gashes in the second half

eh, they're okay. they are for sure better than their 0-2 start. it sucks for them they have to play in the SEC West, that's a killer for sure
 
Yea I agree with you Axl MSU was worn out by the end of the 3rd quarter. I started off thinking Les Miles was just an verage coach that inherated a bunch of Nick Sabans excellent players but he has really proven to be an excellent coach. I cant wait for the LSU Alabama game that is going to be a smash mouth defensive slug fest for the Sec West title. As for Miss State they have a pretty good team they just caught 2 really tough games back to back they had to play LSU on a short week after a very physical game in Auburn. I think they will be ok and can still win 8 games.
 
I like Les Miles, as much as I should hate him. he plays a version of footbaw that is old-school Big Ten, yet Cajun spiced
.
holy Toledo! the Toledo Rockets seem to be hanging in with Boise State, at the half (well last I checked it was 13-6 adv - BSU)

I'm using this game to gauge how worried I should be about tomorrow's Miami game. I mean, Miami got a nice one and they are playing their star players that were formally suspended before. tOSU still has their cream of the crop out. Miami can win if they use their speed to burn my team. Miami can lose if Jacory Harris throws more pick-sixes than TDs

this is the most important game of the season for tOSU. I know my team plays MSU, Wisco, Nebraska, and even Michigan. however, if the Buckeyes lose this game than those games look to be lost. if the Buckeyes win this game, then there is some hope for the season yet
