No, you idiot announcer. Incomplete passes are NOT okay for USC right now because they don't get you anywhere. It's all well and good that he can get a freaking play from the sideline but I'm pretty sure he could do that anyway if they completed a pass. Idiot.

9 out of 10 people will tell you that BA is a very important stat. 9 out of 10 people will tell you wins are the best way to evaluate pitchers. 9 out of 10 people will probably tell you Derek Jeter is the key to the New York Yankees offense. Does that make them right?
-
Haha. I heard that as well.

Why not? It's the difference between one score and two scores. If you go for one, you're down 9 and that doesn't help you at all because you need a TD and FG. If you go for two and don't get it, you're still down 10 and still need a TD and FG. If you go for it, you're down 8, a TD and a 2pt conversion.

Oklahoma St is now up 34-23 over Nebraska with 7:28 to go.

Nothing like playing not to lose, eh?

It's the ACC that has screwed me over this year in my pick em league. another conference with way too many mediocre teams. NC State? Va Tech? Florida State? Miami? Too many teams that can play really well or really badly. Clemson, BC, Georgia Tech. The whole conference is bleh. At least the Big XII has Texas.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.

Potential upsets right now other than USC: Oklahoma St is beating Nebraska 27-23 in the fourth quarter. Miami and Georgia Tech are tied at 16 in the fourth.

TD USC. 33-17.
-
USC has to get a TD here.

USC isn't done yet. They're close and can't afford any more mistakes but they aren't done yet.

That was so awesome. So how does Oregon State screw up turnover #4? By only getting a field goal. It's not even that I don't like USC (because I don't care either way and am indifferent) but this is just pathetic. They had one great game (Arkansas) and one good game (Nebraska) and that's it. I really hope Cal kills them but you know once Oregon rolls into town on 11/11 that USC is going to look like a different team again for those four games (Oregon, Cal, ND, UCLA).

USC's running back just dropped the ball while running. Didn't get hit. Just dropped it.
-
but now they're tied. It's a clear cut case of pre-season polling affecting mid-season polling. If there were no pre-season polls, no one would have USC as #2 or #3 in the country right now. I don't think that's true. There's no way they would be ahead of Michigan, but they still would be #3, simply by being undefeated with their strength of schedule. For now, they deserve to be there-if they get their first loss, then they can be dropped behind most of the one loss teams where they belong. They would probably be behind WVU and maybe Texas as well. Remember, Arkansas wasn't ranked to start the year and the pollsters only remember where a team was when you beat them. SC would be #5 at best.
-
Did USC bring back Leinart/Bush/White to play against Arkansas and nobody noticed or something? Because with the exception of that game, USC has looked average at best.

detroit's good pitching didn't shut down st. louis' good hitting. Well game 1 Verlander gave up 6 runs and they lost. Game 2 Rogers pitched good and they won. Game 3 they gave up 3 runs and Carp gave up 0 and the Cards won, game 4 they got some bad breaks gave up 3 runs and lost. And game 5 again bad breaks and gave up 2 runs and lost. So they pitched OK in the W.S., but the cards pitched better and guess what, the better pitching won. If you really believe that the rotation of Carpenter, Weaver, Suppan, Reyes is better than the rotation of Rogers, Verlander, Bonderman, Robertson you are insane. It's called sample size. The Cardinals happened to pitch better in 4 out of 5 freaking games. That's it.

Wilt. Without a doubt.

Biggio and Astros Might Part Ways?

I've heard they're not quite at Eckstein's level, but they're still quite good. Probably much higher than anybody on the Cubs. EDIT: Spelling -
If I had to put up with a season of watching Bonds in a Cubs uniform and the Cubs didn't make the playoffs, I would probably shoot myself.

Hey, David Eckstein also won the MVP of the World Series. Maybe we should sign a bunch of guys with lines of .292/.350/.344/.694 (Eckstein in 2006). Then, as long as we're at it, we should sign a guy who posted a ERA of 5.76, an ERA+ of 76, and a 1.51 WHIP. We'll win the World Series for sure. Hey now, I think Jon got it right. Go for the catcher with the sub-.600 OPS. You know, the catcher who gets more hits in the playoffs than in any full month other than June. Where do I sign? Let's get him too.

Including Weaver and Suppan completely negates your argument.

I think MSU is officially done. It's 44-7 Indiana now.
