  1. LSU won the the national championship in 2007 after losing to an unranked Arkansas team in the last game of the regular season. In 2006 UCLA beat USC in the final game of the regular season so I don't see how that applies to your theory. I guess USC stayed in the hunt after losing to Stanford but if they hadn't lost to Oregon that year they would've been the only other 1 loss team besides Ohio State among BCS teams. In 2008 Oregon State finished 18th in the country and had 9 wins. So basically your theory is garbage. I didn't say that USC played for the NC every time they lost to an unranked team, but they stay in the team picture for contenders all the way to the end. Are you being intentionally dense? How does the fact that LSU won the national championship two years ago after losing to an unranked team in the last game of the regular season not completely undermine your claim? And didn't Florida stay in the national title hunt just last year after losing to an unranked Ole Miss team? Sure they finished ranked but so did the Beavers last year. Your assertion just doesn't hold up.

  3. I don't know much about the Hawkeyes. How many players do they have that would start for Florida or Alabama? I'm guessing it's less than 5 for both units.
  4. Iowa's more likely to get lit up by a team like Cincinnati or Oregon than they are Florida or Bama. Not to say UC/Oregon are better than those teams but it's just a styles thing (at least they way the Tide and Gators are playing offense now) at this point.
  5. Haven't seen USC's defense get worked over like this in a long time.
  6. It was overthrown and Tebow hung his WR out to dry. That nearly was a huge INT. Uh, it hit him right in the hands. Yeah, the guy took a hit, but it was a completely broken play. What do you expect?
  7. omg, that MSU guy just biffed it on the fake punt. He HAD the first down.
  8. That would've been a backbreaker if Florida completed that.
  9. wtf is going on between A&M and Tech? A&M's up 35-14.
  10. They lost too many good receivers. Kinda like Penn State. If they develop they'll be dangerous again. Penn State's new WR's are doing just fine Anyone can pass on Michigan and Eastern Illinois.
  11. They lost too many good receivers. Kinda like Penn State. If they develop they'll be dangerous again.
  12. They could've clocked it and ran a pass play but there's a good chance they don't gain another yard. Plus they can't afford to take a sack without a timeout.
  13. [expletive] that kicker.
  14. It was a good call.
  15. Huh, Hughes needs to stick that in.
  16. that's 3 drives in a row where Tennessee should've at least had field goals and came away with nothing. Sometimes you have to know when you're beat Lane and call something on 3rd and long to get some yardage. Although that was a horrible kick.
  17. They'll screw it up somehow.
  18. I understand Tennessee needs to attack deep and was setting up a play action but I'm not sure a wheel route to the fullback is the right call there. And then you take a 10+ yard sack on the next play. Nice drive implosion, there.
  19. Alabama should just go to the Dolphins offense full time. Get one or two plays in there to toss it to Jones. If McElroy doesn't touch the ball they may be unbeatable.
  20. The problem is that they're giving up FGs. I don't see them putting many TDs on the board against Bama. They'd be in good shape if they just took away the dump off to Jones (the only pass McElroy is capable of completing) and stopped kicking it off to the 15-20 yard line.
  21. I'm finding Game 6 of the 93 Finals on ESPN Classic much more enticing than the college football games on right now.
  22. I actually would liken Bradford to Sanchez. Both are cerebral QBs who don't have great arms but came up in elite BCS programs. Mallett likely wouldn't have the quick success Flacco did, but those seem like good comparisons. How about Romo as a comp for Locker? Or a better version of Romo? Or maybe McNabb? Jake Locker is like Randall Cunningham without quite the same amount of escapability. He's probably faster in a straight line than Cunningham was. Both have huge arms.
  23. Deadspin is probably planting attractive women to show up at stops on Bill Simmons' book tour hoping to get him embroiled in a public sex scandal. It's their dream scoop.
