  1. Sigh. We choked, plain and simple. You guys looked pretty good in the 2nd half. You definitely won't win 9 games again this season, in my estimation.
  2. Someone mentioned being horrified at foul balls down the LF line. We've got you covered.
  3. I hope/think ND will beat Stanford. They finally looked a little like the team I expected at the start of the year in the last 32 minutes of Saturday's game. Hopefully they can springboard into 08 with a W. If Ball State loses to NIU and blows a bowl game...oh boy.
  4. :( The convenient stereotypes of winning football games? Of not shooting yourself in the foot? Of not bringing in a walk-on 3rd string QB and telling him to win the game?
  5. Games between ranked teams ---------------------------- (3) Missouri at (2) Kansas (8 pm, ABC) (20) Connecticut at (4) West Virginia (12 pm) (11) USC at (7) Arizona State (8 pm Thursday, ESPN) (8) Virginia Tech at (16) Virginia (12 pm, ESPN2) (17) Boise State at (14) Hawaii (9 pm Friday, ESPN2) Good Top 25 games ------------------- Arkansas at (1) LSU (3:30 pm Friday, CBS) (6) Georgia at Georgia Tech (3:30 pm, ABC) (9) Oregon at UCLA (3:30 pm, ABC) Oklahoma State at (10) Oklahoma (3:30 pm) Florida State at (12) Florida (5 pm, CBS) (13) Texas at Texas A&M (3:30 pm, ABC) (19) Tennessee at Kentucky (1:30 pm, CBS) (21) Clemson at South Carolina (7 pm, ESPN2) Utah at (23) BYU (2:30 pm) Alabama at (25) Auburn (8 pm, ESPN) Top 25 mismatches ------------------ Miami at (15) Boston College (12 pm, ESPN) (24) Cincinnati at Syracuse (7 pm, ESPNU) Other games of interest ----------------------- Nebraska at Colorado (12 pm Friday, ABC) Ole Miss at Mississippi State (1 pm Friday) Notre Dame at Stanford (3:30 pm, ESPN) Kansas State at Fresno State (3:30 pm, ESPN2) Ball State at N. Illinois (4 pm) UL Monroe at UL Lafayette (7 pm)
  6. It lost the credibility years ago for me due to the regional bias and ignorance of the writers who vote. See last year, when McFadden finished 2nd even though he missed the most important game of the year (after getting hurt in a bar fight, no less)
  7. Tebow will and should win it.
  8. We beat you by 14, Duke by 21, but with the HFA difference, you're probably right...about as good as Duke. :D
  9. 17 point spreads to me are mismatch scores. One team's pretty clearly better most of the time in that scenario.
  10. TT 20 Oklahoma 7 in the early going...
  11. LOL at Zbikowski, a HS QB, taking snaps on Senior Day at Notre Dame. And of course, Travis Thomas fumbles. What a pitiful player he's been this year.
  12. Yay, ND might be able to avoid double-digit losses after all.
  13. Jimmy is 14/28, 172 yards, 2 TD and it should be more like 18/28 for 250.
  14. UL Monroe now leads Bama 21-14 after 3, speaking of how good the SEC is.
  15. Jimmy throws two great balls for TDs after Duke fumbles in the last two minutes and suddenly the Irish lead 14-0 at halftime. First halftime lead all year.
  16. Jimmy makes an absolutely gorgeous pass on 4th and 17 and Robby Parris flat-out drops it. Absolutely amazing.
  17. So it's the exact opposite of the ND/Duke game. These 2 teams are absolutely horrible. Or just really good on defense!!!! /delusional
  18. Hey, more dumb penalties. Nice.
  19. John Carlson is getting flagged for signaling a 1st down after a 1st down play. That's really cool.
  20. The Gators aren't running up the score, that's all. When they win big you guys complain and when they're winning small you guys complain... I beg you to tell me this is sarcasm
  21. Notre Dame 76, Monmouth 33...wow. Outscored them 39-8 in the second half. Next up: Baylor on Sunday night for round 2. Winthrop really needs to beat GT so we can get a piece of them in the final.
  22. I wouldn't get too cocky we (UIC) are pretty good... we've already beat Bradley. crap, we're getting killed by Winthrop at the moment. I'm not cocky, my smart-ass comment was more directed at our athletic department that refuses to let us play a regularly scheduled game with a good team this year (other than Kansas State). I really want to play Winthrop. I want revenge on them.
  23. ND will continue their buzzsaw non-conference schedule tonight at the Paradise Jam tournament, which features such powerhouses as Georgia Tech, UIC, Baylor, Wichita State and tonight's Irish opponent, Monmouth.
  24. Your guess is correct. The Big Ten has the dumbest tiebreaker in the history of the world, that of whoever has gone the longest without one gets the BCS bid in a tie. I have no ties to Illinois, but little would make me happier than the UM/OSU game being meaningless.
  25. Truest comment of the thread.
