so annoyed with mcdermott right now. very sick of his "we'll play with the guys that want to be here" attitude. go back to the missouri valley to coach scrappy white guys that hustle. you need more than that to win in the B12. sounds like colvin's suspension may end early which is pretty embarrassing.

man, iowa state missed a lot of three footers.
-
How did your illini do in their bowl? abuck's an Iowa State fan. LOL. Well that explains a lot. your team played in a bowl where both teams stood on the same sideline. that's all there is to say, really.
-
it's so adorable watching an option team try and run a 2 minute offense.
-
i'd guess they'd be in the top 8 or so in next year's preseason poll. would help if spivea and bulaga came back obviously.
-
well, i'll be a son of a bitch...i guess iowa is good after all.
-
um usc won the saltine cracker bowl this year thank you very much.
-
i can't believe people are still bitching about the colts pulling their starters after wes welker's leg exploded yesterday.

Urban Meyer Resigns for Health Reasons. Or not.

right, except brett favre is old for his profession and retires every offseason, only to wait for another team to cater to his every desire and allow him to come back after skipping all of the hard work during the preseason, whereas urban meyer suffered a serious of significant health incidents that made him think he needed to retire - very early for his profession - but then reconsidered and a day later decided to take a leave of absence in hopes that he could improve his health in that way. in other words it's pretty much exactly the same thing except in just about every way possible. so, let me see if I can break this down into one off-the-cuff statement: he retired and then unretired. What famous NFL QB that ESPN loves has done that recently...let them think...it's right on the tip of my tongue... you two quit being bitter than meyer decided he'd rather win the nat'l title in the florida sunshine than lose to navy in cold, boring indiana. -

yeah, probably. lol. -
imagine how mediocre usc would be if they didn't cheat.
-
relief pitchers ACTUALLY serve a purpose on a MLB roster, all DH does is waste spot for somebody who deserves said spot. yeah, how dare edgar martinez unfairly take a spot on the mariners roster when there was probably some no-hit, slick glove ss that was left without a job for the entire decade of the 90s.

Yes, a RB with over 1500 yards 15 TDs with under 250 carries, plus another 300 yards recieving and 3 more TDs is the worst Heisman winner ever. Not to mention he did in the SEC. I'm glad you don't have a vote for the Heisman. Yes both Suh and Gerhart did deserve to win the Heisman, or they wouldn't have been invited to New York, but to me the bigger issue was why CJ Spiller wasn't invited to New York and Tim Tebow was? Why are we not having fits about that misjustice? You can moan and groan about who won the Heisman, but the fact remains is was a close vote and even if Toby or Suh won people would be arguing the cases of those who lost. I don't know why people are upset about Suh not winning, cause Suh isn't. Everybody knows that defensives players are never going to win an offensive awards (fair or not), the fact that he made it to New York is a big effin deal. Stop complaining and move on. Crying like a woman during childbirth isn't going to change the outcome. oh lordy 1500 yards and 15 TDs in a weak ass conference, holy crap stop the presses, this guy could be the best in the NFL RIGHT NOW. i know when i think of the heisman trophy, the most prestigious individual award in sports, i think of standout performances like his breakout 50 yards in the arkansas game, or the 30 yards he racked up against auburn. he didn't want to pad his stats in those games.

remember when alabama lost to utah?

lol, notre dame is EVERYBODY'S dream job. you're telling me a coach in a hypothetical four team playoff would bail to take a job at a team coming off three seasons of combined under .500 football? he would walk away from a 1 in 4 (or whatever) chance to win a NATIONAL TITLE to go to a school that has won like one national title in the last 30 years? give me a break.
-
How so? for one, the absolutely pointless 6 week or whatever gap between a team's last game and its bowl means the bowls are played in january, meaning a team that has fired its coach cannot wait until after bowl season to hire its coach, meaning teams playing in bowl games are likely to have their coach poached. secondly, it just goes to show how meaningless every bowl outside the championship is if a guy is willing to walk away from a chance at an undefeated season at the sugar bowl to take another job. he wouldn't walk away from cincy if his team was involved in a playoff with a shot to win a nat'l title. Yes, being able to get milllions of dollars somewhere else equates to meaningless. There's a handful of coaching changes where this becomes a factor every year, it's really not a big deal, and how would this change at all if there was a playoff? The last games of the year are going to be played in January regardless, and regular seasons are going to end in the beginning of December, regardless. if there was a playoff, kelly wouldn't have left.

another reason the bowl system/bcs sucks.
-
and as it stands now, all but one of the postseason games have little or no importance. the big 12 title game would lose some significance but the orange bowl (or whatever they would call the playoff-system semifinal game or whatever) would gain a TON of significance.
-
who cares if you're going to the independence or the insight or the texas or whatever? yeah, isu has no business getting picked over mizzou for the insight, but what difference does it make? neither of them are good bowls. i can see being upset about getting screwed out of a BCS bowl, but who cares otherwise.
-
i love the clips of the usc players pointing, wagging their tongues, laughing, etc across the field. have fun at the holiday bowl, douchebags.
-
well, that was disheartening...lost to a bunch of dorks that look like before models in proactive ads. glad gilstrap sat for the last five minutes in favor of christopherson who was absolutely worthless the whole game. brackins sucked tonight too. my enthusiasm for this season dropped 80% after that game.
-
why not? because notre dame is like 15-20 over the past three seasons. they suck just as much as the papa john's bowl.
-
i don't know if ND is any position to be calling any bowl a "crap bowl."
