OT: NCAA Football 10/4

Open thread for the games today 10/4

 

looking forward/ahead to next week and the red river shootout

 

looks to be one of the better games of the last few years with probably as much on the line as there has been since 05 when VY and co were still at Texas

I am interested to see Texas play tonite vs Colorado...but am stuck watching Ole Miss vs Florida on Yahoo! Sports: http://tinyurl.com/484fll

should be interesting!

umm

u don’t like jevan snead because mack brown wouldn’t play him? is that really your reasoning?

Jevan Snead already has more big games win than Colt.

lol to say that he won the game vs florida is a HUGE strech

9/20 for 185 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

and for fun, take away his 86 yard TD pass and he was 8/19, 99 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT

or were you talking about his great line vs vandy?

12/25, 184 yards, 4 INT

sneed is a guy who was known to change his mind, originally committed to florida, but then changed his mind when tebow committed to fla.

then went to texas, and didnt beat out colt mccoy, and when it became apparant that he was going to be the backup decided to transfer, and it was announced on 1 dec (before the texas bowl game)

and now hes at ole miss…

transfers

he’s not the first highly recruited player to transfer early and he wont be the last.
I can’t say that I blame someone like him either, highly recruited goes to texas and ends up a backup? Something like that could prevent a player from a possible nfl career.

So, an athlete who is going to be a back up for four years should just be a back up and not go to a better opportunity for the student? What kind of nonsense is that?

why is it "stupid"

why? because he changed his mind multiple times, and now i dont like him?

why does it have to make sense? thats like me saying i dont like XXX because they like obama and thats just stupid

THAt is stupid

i can like or dislike people for my own reasons…

my reason happens to be that i think he cant make his mind up/keep a commitment to a school. is it logical, no. do i hate the kid,, no but am i not allowed to dislike him for my own reasons?

how in the hell is getting scared off from florida by tebow and out of texas by mccoy showing committment?

btw he essentially called urban meyer a liar for tell him he was recruiting tebow as a linebacker (meyer said that was completely untrue) in a book

It won't happen

he is in way over his head. The only reason he won at SC is because they had the best talent. You are not gonna get the best talent at UNT…. I know the talent isn’t great, but it isn’t winless bad either. Like I said hopefully they’ll win today. FIU may be the only other team that sucks harder than them.

BTW also regarding sneed

read somewhere that he evidently is a good NFL qb prospect and that he went to ole miss cuz it gave him the best chance to make it to the NFL (vs rice? i think was the other final top cohice i want to say?)

also this was right after he transferrred from texas so its a little fuzzy to me

eh to say that mack wouldnt play him

is a strech to me

i seriously doubt that mack didn play him because he didnt like the kid

but it doesnt matter, a QB that was everything that sneed was had no business getting beaten out for a starting QB job by a guy from a tiny school, redshirt freshman or not.

that’s the point, don’t you get it, Snead DID BEAT HIM OUT, but Mack doesn’t play him because Colt is a ‘Texas kinda Guy’…

Aggies downward spiral

I’ve seen a lot of 52-17 predictions for an Aggie loss this weekend…now I know the Pokes can put a lot of points on the board, the Aggies can’t defend, and all of their quarterbacks that haven’t been fully converted to WR are injured…but we’ve beaten them 2 years in a row (granted by 1 point each time).

Is there ANY CHANCE at all they make it close, or is 52-17 the final verdict?

In the AP

OSU went from #5 to #13.

USC went from #1 to #9.

8 spot drop for both, but USC had the win over OSU which OSU couldn’t match.

That goes both ways though

Yes, USC lost to an unranked team, but they also had a top 5 win — which OSU can’t match.

But think about the wins

USC had a win over the #5 team before they lost.

What had OSU done that was positive for their team?

I mean you could argue that the 32 point loss to the #1 team was their “best” game.

I agree with that. I don’t think polls should come out until the 2nd week or so of conference play.

Of course, that will never happen because they need rankings to hype the games for TV and all that.

But which would you use to boost your team more?

A win over the #5 team or a loss to the #1 team?

I can see both sides — but I see an 8 spot drop for both teams as the voters treating them equally.

Oregon’s on their 4th string QB this year though, so maybe I shouldn’t have taken them.

I’m back. Left after the TD in the fourth which made it 42-3. Pitiful. Just a bad team. 7-0 in the first and FIU kicks it off. The ball is clearly heading out of bounds and some UNT dolt dives and catches it before it goes out. Idiot. It’s truly sad to watch. We will be lucky to win one game this year.

They may not have...

played today, but Utah (6-0) and BYU (5-0) are on a collision course for Nov. 22nd.

I think TCU is the only team with a shot left on either of their schedules that can beat them. If the Utes and Cougs get by the Frogs then it could be two top ten teams in the MWC at 10-0 going at it for a shot to go to the BCS. People in Utah are eating this shit up right now.

why is espn

lying?

“It was an opportunity to step up,” Petruzelli said. “This is something I wanted all my life.”

Tipping the scale Thursday at 205½, Petruzelli was outweighed by more than 19 pounds. The weight difference would not come into play.

Petruzelli looked comfortable standing with the hard-hitting Slice. He did not run away and was able to land a right hand that clipped Slice on the jaw.

The punch was hard enough to stun Slice, who stumbled forward and fell to his knees. Once on the ground, Petruzelli delivered several lefts and rights that caught a defenseless Slice.

He got gashed over his eye, not ‘clipped’ on the jaw….But, yet a ‘clip’ on the jaw was ‘hard enough’ to stun Slice? What?
