I guess I'll just have to reminisce on our 11-win season in the best conference in college football led by our Heisman Trophy winning freshman QB to heal the pain of not winning the cover of this game.
-
Sorry, it was Owen Schmitt. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_Football_series
-
So you'd be OK with Luke Joeckel being on the cover since you know who he is?
-
Per Wiki past cover athletes have included Jared Zabransky, Owen Whitt, and Brian Johnson.
-
And I pointed out that just because you may be ignorant on SEC football that doesn't mean that he is a nobody. I'm not arguing that Swope is as recognizable as Denard. That's not even close. I just thought it was short sighted to say that Swope is a nobody player. Maybe I'm just misunderstanding your meaning but to me it sounds like you're saying he is not talented enough to be on the cover. If you're saying he's not popular enough, then I wouldn't be arguing that. Then again, that game has had several cover athletes who weren't widely known from what I've been told.

When do the playoffs start?
-
So I'm weird because I don't like people talking negatively about my alma mater? I must be some kind of major freak or something.
-
Given the context I'm not sure how you could possibly believe anyone wouldn't think exactly that. You got me. I will commit suicide if Swope doesn't win the vote. For the record, I also care what you think of me so please like me.

by cheating http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fmobile.texags.com%2FForums%2F5%2FTopics%2F2274925%3Fpage%3Dlast well that, and he did just set the record for all-time rushing yards from a college QB... I'm sure every Michigan vote is legit though, right? And you better hope Manziel isn't around more than 2 years or Denard's stay in the record books will be a short one.
-
So because I'm engaging you Einsteins in a discussion on the abilities of Swope vs Denard that means I care about who's on the cover of a video game I haven't played in probably 10+ years? I made my original comment about people freaking out over the vote count every few minutes while devising plans on a message board to get thousands more votes while accusing the other side of cheating. Sure I think it would be cool for Texas A&M to get that visibility but I haven't spent any effort or money to get hundreds/thousands of extra votes to win this contest. Can you people not see the difference?
-
He's recognizable because he had a few good games last year and he doesn't tie his shoelaces, so ESPN fell in love with him for a short time.
-
Denard Robinson couldn't even get an Honorable Mention for All-Big 10 yet he deserves it more than Swope? http://btn.com/2012/11/26/your-2012-all-big-ten-conference-football-team/ Must be because of the injuries. Let's look at 2011 then. Oh there he is in the honorable mention section. He must be one hell of a QB. http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/40066/2011-all-big-ten-teams-individual-awards

Denard Robinson wasn't even the starting QB at the end of the season, was he? He was injured. What does that have to do with anything? He was injured yet still played, right?

Yeah, it's incredible how much they care about that [expletive]. Ryan Swope will probably be a 2nd round draft pick at WR after a great combine showing. He had a couple of huge catches in the Alabama game. Was 1st team All Big 12 last year and 2nd team All SEC this year due to a slow start. Obviously they would want Manziel on the cover but current student athletes aren't eligible. And despite Luke Joeckel being the possible #1 overall pick I doubt EA Sports was excited about putting a left tackle on the cover.
-
would be kinda crazy since they have 1 top 50 win (at home vs terrible on the road mizzou). they don't really have any unforgiveable losses though. They lost at home to A&M before Nerlens went down for the season. With the way we've crapped the bed lately that has to be seen as a pretty bad loss.
-
So this stupid NCAA 2014 video game cover vote between Michigan & Texas A&M is getting ridiculous and I'm sure no one outside the two schools even gives a [expletive]. Michigan is accusing us of cheating because we made a big surge in the past 24 hours and took the lead. A&M accusing Michigan of cheating to get such a big lead in the first place. It's amazing to see adults getting all worked up over this. Sure it would be cool to have our guy on the cover of the game but it's not worth losing any sleep over.

47.9% of the regular season is over. After tonight it will be officially halfway done.

CORN IS NOT A VEGETABLE?!

Jim Cornelison isn't wearing his Stanley Cup ring tonight. I wonder where it is.
-
Rizzo and Castro combine for 55 HR's.
-
VCU is an easy Final Four pick in that bracket, right? Only slightly kidding. Shaka seems to be the tournament wizard.
-
It would be impossible to ignore with Tubsy McManTits there. Hmm, I may request a name change to this. It has a nice ring to it.

Scott Drew is a helluva coach.
