College Football - Week of 10/28

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Texas takes the lead, 35-31, 2 minutes into the 4th.

 

aTm is going to beat Baylor, up 10 with 2 mins left after Goodson broke a long TD run.

[Slugger_16]

UT takes a 21-17 lead...

[CaliforniaRaisin]

I hate Karl Dorrell more than Dick Jauron, Dusty Baker and Don Baylor combined in their heyday.

 

I can't imagine somebody being that much worse than Dusty Baker. It just isn't possible.

 

It is.

 

UCLA now losing 30-15. With this offense, that's game.

[TruffleShuffle]

boo, big return for UcheaT

[TruffleShuffle]

ah screw you tennessee

[treebird]

the fact that there are players named both todd walker and manny ramirez in the texas-texas tech game is really distracting me

[CaliforniaRaisin]

UCLA with a good drive but then they are intercepted in the end zone.

 

Then UCLA picks off Brink and fumbles the return.

 

I thought there would be no hangover after the game in South Bend. Screw you Dorrell.

 

Need 2 wins to play in some crappy bowl game in Las Vegas:

 

@ Cal

vs. Oregon State

@ Arizona State

vs. USC

[TruffleShuffle]

YES we got bull**** chants on the SC-UT game

[TruffleShuffle]

lol South Carolina receiver got absolutely mugged on 3rd down and there was no call.... can't say I blame SC fans for being pissed about that one

[TruffleShuffle]

nice job Texas.... fumbled the ball away with 5 minutes left.

 

The battle for the Music City Bowl - Maryland up 27-24 with a minute left, but F$U is in field goal range.

 

That bowl just won't be the same without Minnesota or Purdue :cry:

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Oof, that was a bad call in Columbia. They had to escort people from the stands for throwing stuff.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Tech in the redzone, 4:30 left

[TruffleShuffle]

haha Maryland blocked F$U's FG atttempt... always fun to see those thugs at 4-4. Maybe Bobby Bowden should be put out to pasture.

 

 

edit - F$U's worst record to start the season since Bowden's first year there (30 years ago)

[Transmogrified Tiger]

er, Gameday lied to me and it was 4th and 1 for Tech, Harrell is stuffed on the sneak and Texas has the ball again. Tech has at most 2 timeouts, since ESPN apparently doesn't want to divulge that sort of info.

[TruffleShuffle]

Maryland's fans storm the field after beating an unranked 4-3 team... way to go guys

[TruffleShuffle]

And Arizona St wins one of the Pac 10 Who Cares Games of the Week in overtime

[TruffleShuffle]

ooh Rutgers-UConn... another huge challenge for the Scarlet Knights

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Tyrone Willingham may go on a homicidal rampage if he keeps losing close games every single week.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

UCLA's player of the game was their kicker. How sad is that.

 

37-15 is going to be the final. Great job Dorrell, way to make sure the ND hangover didn't carry over. Next up: a rested Cal team which is in the driver's seat to win the Pac-10...in Berkeley

I'd be happy with one more win.

on a side note, I sure am glad that .500 teams can go to bowl games... after all, I think clubs like Michigan State, Florida State and Kansas State have all proved that they certainly deserve to be seen in nationally televised games.

Why does it matter? It's not like they're taking the bowl spots from better teams, and most of them are Christmas week games that not many people watch outside their fandoms.

I'd rather watch an 8-4 team from the MAC or CUSA than some team that played four bad non-conference teams and then beat the worst two teams in their own conference.
