    One thing to note is that he's currently the #2 rated passer in the country while playing a top five schedule. Obviously his legs help him in that department as well, but he's a naturally gifted passer on top of being a great power runner. no doubt, and the game-planning people have to do to stack the box against him running makes for more one-on-one matchups for his receivers. frankly, if Tebow wins i'd be fine with it, though i think McFadden is the better player long term

    funny, i thought they lost 3 games 100% of the time this year

    good thing some guy in USA Today's rankings have no actual effect on the real world

    hmmm, i've never seen anyone try such a thing on the post-safety kick. probably because you're way back at the 20 yard line

    if Mizzou and WVU win next week, they're in barring some BCS shenanigans. OSU needs a lot of help

    How can you do an onsides kick off a safety? Isn't it a punt? Typically it is, but for some reason they let Kansas tee it up like normal. You can still onsides a punt though, it just takes a little creativity to get a good one. no, you can't onsides a punt. if you choose to actually punt it (rather than fake it) you are conceding change of possession. this is why a punt returner can choose to let a punt go and the kicking team only "downs" the ball if they touch it (as opposed to an onsides where they would be able to recover it after 10 yards and keep possession). i'm pretty positive that you can't onsides after a safety (the kick is considered a "free kick" and can either be kicked off a tee or punted at the kicking team's discretion)

    or Kansas. they lost early instead of late Actually Kansas lost later. i was referring to why VTech was above LSU and Kansas

    USC vs. UCLA is an unofficial championship game, though UCLA would still need help after beating USC

    I see your point but does anyone want to sit outside watching football in the upper midwest in December? yes, the same people who go to see New England, Buffalo, Pittsburgh, the Giants, Cleveland, etc. in the NFL

    i once again point to how dumb it is that the Big 10 is done already

    some dude on NC A&T drops 40 on DePaul as the Blue Demons lose 96-93 at home. ](*,)
  13. Derwood
    wow, woops
  14. Derwood
    fun game. too bad for KU that they haven't forced a single turnover
  15. Derwood
    i'm pretty impressed by Missouri so far. i had no idea that they ran such a spread offense. A matchup with WVU in the NC game would be like 68-67 at the half
  16. Derwood
    this will be the first time i've seen either of these teams play this year
  17. Derwood
    by me

    why does every coach in the SEC have an entourage of State Troopers with them (from their own state, mind you)? You'll never see Paterno or any other Big 10 coach with an escort.
  19. Derwood
    Not so sure I want to see Missouri play for one either
  20. Derwood
    Tebow is good because this is college football (which is what the Heisman rewards). No NFL team will run that many QB draws, and if he tried on his own, he'd be broken in half by an NFL LB. But since it isn't the "predictor of who will be great in the NFL award", go ahead and give it to Tebow.

    The NBA thread

    Derwood replied to imb's topic in Other Sports

    Deng didn't play though
  22. Derwood
    Riders a pretty tough team if they have the same guys as last year. we'll see if PSU can manage to beat UCF in the all-important "7th place game"
  23. Derwood
    if LSU loses the SEC title game, you may see an LSU vs. Illinois matchup in the Capitol One Bowl
  24. Derwood
    OSU will get killed by whoever they play if they make it to the NC game
  25. Derwood
    for a team that has to win, Texas is looking lousy
