College Football - Week of 8/30

[SouthSideRyan]

Missouri is in 12th place in the Big 12 for conference titles.

 

1st in regular season women's softball 1997.

1st in tournament women's softball 1997.

 

Though they do have a Big 12 North title that I'm sure there's a banner somewhere for.

This is some of the dumbest smack talk I've heard in a very, very long time. I hope the game isn't this lame.

[Derwood]

I would look forward to the Illinois/Missouri game more if I thought it would settle the "which mediocre mid-western team is less mediocre" war

i'd look forward to a penn state game if they had a "joe paterno running to the crapper-cam".

Haha. It's funny cause it happened.

If they had Truffle coaching it wouldn't be a problem

What's funny about the smack talk is that SSR is the exact person he whines about during basketball season. It's pretty comical, actually.

[Hosak8]

Dew...

 

How about Gerald Williams getting cleared today to play? HUGE news.

 

Also, I read this a little bit ago, and thought I'd pass it along. If this is the attitude of this team, 2008 could be a special year...

 

"I was leaving the football complex and tonight was helmet scrub and decaling where the managers all wash the helmets and supply them with wide stripes and "t". As I went by there in the circle of managers was Eric Berry and Demetrice Morley scrubbing helmets. I thought man that's an interesting punishment for something, but it turns out, that the two of them just wanted to help and do it."

 

That, from Brent Hubbs of Volquest.

[NCCubFan]

It was in Toronto right? International Bowl?

That was us, and I'm insulted by that. :wink:

 

NCCubFan, the Navy game next week is on Friday and on ESPN. It is going to be all kinds of awesome.

The Cubs will definitely be taking a back seat for me that night (if they even play at night; I don't usually look at the time of the games this far in advance).

[Warpticon]

Well, in around 18 hours, I get to see how Petrino's new system looks with the young, inexperienced squad the Razorbacks are trotting out.

They do, I looked. The Cubs are No. 2 that night for me as well, mostly because there's not a whole lot left at stake.

[Magnetic Curses]

i had the big ten network on in the background as i was doing some late night work, but i didn't realize that it was the big ten network, and i just naturally assumed that burgess meredith was roasting the 68 penn state football team, but when i turned my head to look at the screen, it turned out to be joe paterno.

[manbearcub]

Yay tailgating! Go Hawks!

[Choonch]

I-L-L

 

10 hours.

[Terp]

I totally forgot that the LSU game got moved up. That's a nice game to flip between during Penn State commericals. It's days like this that I love Tivo. I just hope I still get the Big Ten Network since it moved from 220 to around 620.

[Post Count Padder]

Heading off to Beaver Stadium soon.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Time for LSU football! Geaux Tigers!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

That first drive was getting me nervous, but LSU stops them on 4th and 4.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

And LSU scores in 2 plays!

 

Charles Scott!

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I'll call it, App State over LSU

 

Not going to happen!

[Warpticon]

It just occurred to me, the Hogs are running a 4-2-5 D largely because they have, like, 3 linebackers on the roster. Absurd.

 

Also, does anybody else have a hard time saying the right team they root for at any given time? I almost typed Cubs, Dolphins, and Lakers above before I finally got it right.

[Butterscup1679666578]

Oh god, I forgot how much I missed college football.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I know it's only against Appalchian State, but I've missed watching this LSU defense.

[Derwood]

Coastal Effing Carolina is dump-passing Penn State's defense to death. This is pathetic. I hope JoePa tears them a new orifice at halftime
