College Football is finally here.

Tough loss for Boise.
Interesting move for TCU and good addition for the Big East. Easier path to a BCS bid for TCU and may in the long run save the auto bid for the Big East as well.
And Saturday gave me the best highlight of the season, another beat down of TSUN by the Buckeyes. Denard is a great player and I don’t know how injured he was but it came across as quitting when he didn’t come back after going in for a series after getting ‘taped up’. He didn’t seem to be having any trouble with the ball.
So who’s on upset alert this week? Auburn? Oregon? I’m hoping for a big collapse at the top myself that sends TCU and Wisconsin to the BCSNCG and the Buckeyes back to the Rose Bowl.

Every game I watched this Thanksgiving holiday the team I was pulling for lost. Dallas Cowboys, Pitt, Alabama, Boise State, Texas.
I wanted to see Boise in the BCS championship game. I like the team’s skill postion players. Man, I feel for that kicker, missing two chip shot kicks!

I won’t lie, I was shouting when I heard the final score come in! I think I’ll send Kyle Brotzman a holiday basket. I do feel a little sad for them, that was a tough loss, with those shots. It definitely was a win more of “luck” than skill, I won’t be stupid and say that they just couldn’t pull it off, but I’ll accept the loss… :)
Most everybody here on campus is stoked about the Big East move. I have some mixed feelings about it, only because it means we are going to be playing awful teams again. I’ll have to pray that after a few BCS wins they will find it in their hearts to let us in to the Big 12 and actually make it “The Big ‘12’”.
South Carolina might do Auburn in, they beat Alabama, and look how close the Auburn/Alabama game was. If they can just stop Newton, they might do it. Overall though, Auburn is just so wild with what they are capable of pulling off. I will be interested in seeing that one go down.

I can’t really say I felt sad for them. I didn’t do the little happy dance I did when the Midshipmen beat the Domers but I can’t say I’m broken up over it. :-) Especially with some of the comments from the Broncos head coach about having to go to Idaho instead of playing in the ‘bigger’ stadium. If you’ve followed any of the attempts by schools to schedule Boise you’ll be immediately aware of the base hypocrisy on display.

I’m pretty surprised that the Big 12 wasn’t trying to snag up TCU but I’m guessing Texas wasn’t on board. I think TCU might make the rest of the Big East step up a bit.

I really want Auburn to get beat and be left out of the title game with all the mess around Newton. Just in case.

I am hoping that Nebraska leaves the Big XII with a victory over Oklahoma this saturday night in the Big XII Championship game. With Nebraska and Colorado both leaving the conference I would love to see a Nebraska/Iowa game every year on the day after Thanksgiving to replace the Nebraska and Colorado tradition. I can’t wait for the move to the Big Ten next year. There are a lot of good teams in that conference to beat up on. LOL!!!

Or get beat up by. Ask Penn State about that.
Nebraska is a great addition to the Big Ten and I’m looking forward to next fall’s trip to Lincoln for the Buckeyes.

It’s a huge loss for the Big 12 having Nebraska leave the conference.

If you go to the game stop in Omaha and we can get in a game of AA42.

:lol: I’ll just be watching it from home but thanks for the offer.
Looks like Oregon and Auburn for all the marbles. Don’t much like either of them. We’ll find out tonight with the bowl selection show.

That didn’t turn out the way that I hoped it would. Turnovers are a game killer. :cry:

Who will win? The ducks or the tigers?
-
I have to go with Auburn. The only teams with decent defenses that the Ducks have played gave them fits but didn’t have the offense to back it up and Auburn and Cam ‘Show My Dad The Money’ Newton have the whole package. Auburn does to the Ducks what the Buckeyes did to them in the Rose Bowl last year.
-
Auburn is going to win I think. But it will be close. I expect both teams to score over 40 points. I just think that Auburn is just a little bit better then the ducks, so I am picking them.

Fiesta Bowl: Oklahoma
Orange Bowl: Stanford
Sugar Bowl: Arkansas. I know everyone says Buckeyes. I don’t care.
Rose Bowl: TCU. Not just cause I attend school here, the drive to prove something exists. Wisconsin has the Big 10 and the nation of critiques behind them. We have heart and a very good talent. I’m not going to say even a better talent, I think Wisconsin edges us, but I think we got the game.
National Game: Auburn. Hands down. Cam Newton has made a pact with God. I know that somehow.GG

Arkansas qb will be playing on Sundays.

OK, I will go with Oregon just to be different. Auburn has not faced an offense like the ducks. The ducks gave Stanford a good whuppin and I have seen Stanford play and was very impressed. Hope their coach does not go to Michigan.

What do you think about the BCS mistake in the rankings between LSU and Boise State?

I suppose it depends on how much you like or dislike the BCS bowl structure. Boise keeps forgetting that the BCS has more or less ‘made’ them.
In ascending order of interest.
I think the only ‘lock’ this season is the Fiesta Bowl with Oklahoma over UConn. UConn’s only chance is how little a chance they have.
I don’t know that much about Stanford but VT got beat by an FCS team so that’s pretty likely to go Stanford’s way at the Orange Bowl.
I like Auburn in the BCSNCG over Oregon. Auburn has the whole deal although frankly given that I don’t like Oregon’s cheap tactic offense nor the pass that Cam “Show my Dad the money” Newton seems to have gotten and it is only more interesting than the previous two games because it is for The Crystal.
TCU is getting lots of love in the Rose Bowl it seems. TCU is a 2.5 point favorite. I’m not seeing it myself and have to go with Wisconsin. To borrow, “TCU hasn’t really been tested by a team that likes to punch folks in the mouth, and Wisconsin is about the mouth-punchingest team you’re gonna find.” TCU has the number one scoring defense but I’m not really seeing a lot of potent offenses on their schedule.
And of course the Sugar Bowl. Need I say I’m going with the Buckeyes?

Wisconsin vs. Stanford would be a good punch in the mouth matchup.

Have any of you watched the ESPN documentary Pony Express, about SMU and the death sentence?
