I don't know man I'm very excited for today
even though today is the ACC's day to shine, as they are the underdog (and most often playing at home against a ranked opponent today)
at the top of my head...
ranked WVU VS not-ranked MD
ranked tOSU VS not-ranked Miami
ranked Auburn VS not-ranked Clemson (currently watching this. I do suggest to watch this one, pretty fun like most Auburn games)
higher-ranked Oklahoma VS lower ranked FSU
also, I am pretty interested in seeing Michigan State VS ND. for a couple of reasons. first, college football is a sport of hatred, and I want to see ND go 0-3. second, MSU has played some extreme cupcakes the last couple weeks, and although ND is not a great team, they actually do have a good team (they just shoot themselves in the foot by leading the Nation in turnovers)
also, I am pretty jazzed up about the Buckeyes game. it was my b-day earlier in the week, and I'm going to go to a friend's house whose birthday it currently is, and we're both big Buckeyes, of course. needless to say, I will be drinking heavily. and like all residents of Columbus, when I drink heavily, and my Buckeyes lose... COUCHES THEN PAY!
plus, my girlfriend got this shirt for me for the b-day:
Archie!

Ive been flipping between the aub- clem and penn st-temple. Auburns defense is looking very shaky lots of missed tackles nd there Dline is not stopping the run. On the other side Clemson has some good running backs. Penn State just escaped temple after trailing the whole game pretty much. joe Paterno needs to go ahead and anounce his retirment after this season so that he can get the send off he deserves and State can start recruiting again.
And ouch for Ole Miss they are losing 30-0 to Vanderbilt with 5minutes left I think Houston Nutt is gonna be finding a new job soon.

what's up CJ? glad to have another S&G brother joining me on my couch-surf. god damn, I love America and I love footbaw. it's the sport that is closest to war a gentleman can get
I agree with pretty much everything you just said, above
PSU is just sad. I realize that they were going to drop two to Alabama when they signed up for that, let's face it, PSU today is just not the PSU it once was. they have gotten comfortable with having one good season out of every seven, they have become complacent within their mediocrity. which is just sad, because Penn State used to be a hub for footbaw. I remember when I used to literally fear my Buckeyes traveling to Happy Valley. while it still is a scary place to play, it just doesn't cut it anymore... it's just sad, really. I'm one of those guys that thinks all the powerhouses in NCAA need to be good, for the product to be fun and good. except for Notre Dame. FUCK Notre Dame
yeah Auburn's defense looks like swiss freakin' cheese. they need to shape up. I know this is an explosive year for Clemson, but hell, Auburn won't even go .500 in the SEC is they keep this up
Clemson's coach sounds like a retard. and his name is Dabo? WTF?
how about dem Vandy Commodores? I know it's just Ole Miss (who seem to rotate from average-bad to just-bad every year). one would think Jay Cutler is back behind center with how many yards that QB has thrown up!
GO BUCKS!!

I am not planning tp leave my couch till late tonight it really doesnt get better then college football saturdays.
Oh I hope MSU blows Notre Dame out of the stadium I realy cant stand Notre Dame either. though I did enjoy seeing all the crazy faces that Brian Kelley can make.
I think this florida Tennesse game is going to be shootout but I really dont see Tennesee pulling it out I think Charlie Wiess is just to good of a play caller. But if Tennesee pulled the upset I think South Carolina would be the big winner the east is looking pretty wide open with Georgia looking awful Tenn having a really young team and neither florida or South Carolina looking dominant.
Man Come on spartans WTF ND needs to be 0-3 I wonder when there contract with NBC ends I would love to see them have to play in a conferance.
I wonder what happened to UCLAs progrm in the last 10 years I remember 10 or 15 years ago they were always a top 10 or at least top 25 team they have just been dreadful lately.

MSU's tackling is getting pretty soft. also, they are getting ran on and not being able to run the ball themselves. despite MSU's 2 INTs already, they are down 14-3
yeah UCLA has a big chance right now to get back on top of things with a win over a struggling Texas... however they are down early 14-0

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
ill rep texas. i know i havent been visitng this thread much this season, but i have been kinda busy this year, back in school and actually trying since having got off H. my North Texas Eagles are facing Bama today so i wont hold my breath
and i like my longhorns, but i love my Noles, fuck the sooners, GO NOLES!
please redeem that ass raping we took in Norman last year
EDIT: also yes, fuck ND.

Fuck Notre Dame.
damn dude, so much is riding on this right here. you got up early... but at least the Buckeyes are running all over the Hurricanes. tOSU's linemen just look twice the size of Miami's (albeit very fast) defense...
I'm outta here though, be back tomorrow

Meh, better than what we would get with Morris. Harris is good for a couple INT's a game, but he is at least capable of throwing some mindblowingly beautiful passes every once in a while. Both these guys have to go next year, but I would rather go with Jacory.
And at least our QB's aren't as bad as OSU's
Seriously, their bad quarterbacking is the only reason we are up.

that was just... sad. I know there is still a crop of Ohio State play makers suspended, but still, I look across the board and I don't see any play makers. you're all right, the Ohio State QBs are horrible. at least the Buckeyes D is still pretty good. I give props to Miami for playing well, and most definitely for stepping up on defense in the second half
I guess it's time to face the music now. I haven't known the feel for well over a decade of Ohio State having a sub-par football team. but now I know that feel

damn, South Carolina is the latest to be purported by the NCAA to be on the wrong end of some major violations. apparently, they had some football players live at a hotel for a reduced, non-public accessible, rate of $15 a day. and another major violation was that USCe had players receive up to $50, 000 in improper benefits
so it looks like the SEC has 5 schools being investigated by the NCAA
I am still siding on the school with this one, no matter how much the SEC turns my stomach in every way (besides great near-NFL footbaw play)
still it seems that just about every big-time program is currently being investigated or on probation. it's pretty damn amazing that almost half of the SEC is in hot water
where is smotpoker when ya need him??

As an Alabama fan, I'm actually a little nervous about the Arkansas game this weekend. They are looking tough so far. Never thought I would say it, but thank you Clemson. Auburn losing is fantastic! Roll Tide!
