college football!

I am insanely proud of my Bulldogs. Although it was a heartbreaking loss, and could have ended differently, the team played with heart and with class....as did Alabama.

Clearly one of the best college football games that I have ever seen (had it recorded on DVR so I watched what I missed before I got off work).

And...I'm not so sure that given a rematch under ideal conditions, that we couldn't have pulled off the win. It was that close.

The real travesty of the whole situation is that under the royally effed up BCS system, the loser of that game between #2 and #3 in the nation now may miss out on a BCS bowl bid at all. Could have been Alabama just as easily, and it's wrong for either team to miss out on a major bowl with the performances they gave during the regular season and last night.

I will leave you with this:
DAMN GOOD DAWG WOOF WOOF WOOF

Wow, how is your day.

I actually think Wisconsin/Stanford will be a great game. Two pro-style offenses that will just line up and try to physically pummel you.

That's my kind of game, at least. I'd rather watch a 6-3 game than a 38-35 game (I realize I'm in the vast minority in feeling this way, so be it).

horrible.

Horrible for you.

Hungover.


I don't really disagree with you, it's just that Bielema's clock management can be SO terrible that if it's yet another super close Rose Bowl, I don't have confidence that he won't f*ck it up.

different situation. I don't see it working out for them. but I also don't believe they can be much better than they are right now. they have fsu and Clemson to contend with every year and now possibly Louisville.

dabo had been at Clemson for a while and was known as a great recruiter. they knew he could get the players to come here. they were just hoping he would be able to coach them. the guy nc st just hired has no experience recruiting in the south. that does matter.

Quack

It looks like NIU is playing FSU in the orange bowl. Pretty embarrassing for the BCS imo. On the same note, "With Northern Illinois, Louisville and Wisconsin all earning BCS bowls, it marks the first time in the BCS era (since 1999) that three teams ranked lower than No. 15 earned a BCS bowl berth." More reason for the BCS to be shown the door.

It just shows further that the system is in no way there to pit the best teams against each other. I mean, NIU played only 2 major conference schools...lost to 4-8 Iowa and could barely beat 1-10 kansas. Their biggest in-conference competitor was Kent St, who got creamed by KENTUCKY, smh.

I think they just wanted so badly to have a "cinderella" team. There have been legit ones in the past, but this is not one of them.

To be fair, Oklahoma has about one impressive win this year. What's worse about the system is that teams like Georgia and LSU can't make it because of the conference rules. They'd be 25 pt. favorites against NIU on a neutral field.

bcs is horrible

Louisville will give us a run for our money. That game will be closer than one might expect.

This week should be the week for UT to hire somebody. I am not expecting it until Wednesday at least due to Fulmer's big NYC banquet tomorrow and Hart interviewing people there apparently. I so excite!
