WAtching the begining of the Virgina-Syracuse game, and I just want to say I'm not against women pbp announcers per-se, but I have yet to hear one that I can stand.

HomerJSimpson · 09-17-2005, 11:34 AM

Vandy game about to kick off (Go Vandy!), but even with this team having a chance to have the best season for the team since 1948, the stadium is still half empty. Sad.

JonInMiddleGA · 09-17-2005, 11:50 AM

HJS - they're all resting up to watch the important game tonight

Yeah, i don't think Vany has enough "exclusive" (Vandy first) fans to fill up even their tiny stadium. I've been to several games there, and the opposing fans always out number the Vandy fans.

Passacaglia · 09-17-2005, 11:55 AM

Why do Michigan and EMU even bother playing each other? Does it do any good for either team?

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 11:55 AM

Im watching SMU V. TAMU. Checking out Reggie McNeal to see what all the fuss is about.

EMU=$$$$$$$$$$$$$

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 12:18 PM

SMU just scored on a 67 yd td pass. 8-7 A&M as SMU misses the xp. Might play a factor later on.

Noop · 09-17-2005, 12:19 PM

I think the BC-FSU is similar to the Virgina - Florida State game of last season.

HomerJSimpson · 09-17-2005, 12:21 PM

Dores up 10-3 in the second. Go Commies!!

HomerJSimpson · 09-17-2005, 12:39 PM

Vandy scores again, 17-3.

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 02:26 PM

West Virginia 31
Maryland 19
Final

Airhog · 09-17-2005, 02:54 PM

Nice reverse by OU to take an early lead 7-0 against UCLA

jbmagic · 09-17-2005, 02:55 PM

damn UCLA..

first they miss the fg and then..

they allow a 56 yard td run on a wr reverse

UCLA needs this game to get into the top 25

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 04:41 PM

Any updates on the UCLA game?

kingfc22 · 09-17-2005, 04:54 PM

20-10 UCLA

kingfc22 · 09-17-2005, 04:54 PM

OU's QB just got HAMMERED and UCLA picked up the fumble and returned it 20 yds. for the TD.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 04:57 PM

Year after year. They play great one game, and then fall apart. New coach, same results.

Uhhhh, yeah.

Passacaglia · 09-17-2005, 05:02 PM

So when did it stop becoming a "tipped pass" and start becoming a "tip drill"? Yeah, I get it. Teams run a type of practice called a tip drill to help them catch passes that are tipped. But that doesn't mean that you have to mention it EVERY TIME there's a tipped pass, and even moreso, you don't have to change what you call it!

Ah shit air force gets beat by wyoming in the last 3 seconds 29-28.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 05:07 PM

OK, so I'm flipping back and forth between about 6 or 7 games now and I have one question to ask:

Why is it that the Pitt/Nebraska game reminds me a lot of the Pitt/Ohio game?

Christ, even with a couple of down years of recruiting, Nebraska shouldn't be this bad. Their offense is just horrible. Pitt is going to beat them today.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 05:12 PM

Good. Down with the Huskers.

Airhog · 09-17-2005, 05:16 PM

OU is just refusing to give up against UCLA. Great run by the QB and they close to 3 17-20 UCLA

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 05:16 PM

Pitt just missed a 49 yard FG attempt and they still trail 7-6.

VPI97 · 09-17-2005, 05:34 PM

Final Score: VT 45, Ohio 0

Marcus went 12 for 16 for 200 yards and 2 TD...rushed for ~40 yards and another score. That's two shutouts in a row for the defense.

Offense is inconsistant at times, but it should get better. On the other hand, we have the best defensive unit in school history. If this team was on the field last year for our game with USC, we would have won by 14. Take that for what's it worth.

Then I'll take them seriously. Your one fan that very rarely is blinded.

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 05:45 PM

Pitt is running out of time.

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 05:46 PM

Pitt is into FG range with 9 seconds left.

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 05:50 PM

Bad snap. The kicker throws it. Game over? No. Incomplete pass, but it wasn't 4th down. 1 second left. One more try.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 05:51 PM

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 05:51 PM

Blocked. Nebraska wins 7-6.

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 05:53 PM

Just a horrible kicking game for PITT. Nebraska wins 7-6.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 06:09 PM

It seems that defenses have really adapted to the rule changes regarding the kicking game. Leaping over the pile was common practice until the past few years. It seems to me we have more blocks right now up the middle from the defense just pushing the blockers back than anything.

It's very impressive, to say the least.

Cuckoo · 09-17-2005, 06:16 PM

Well, OU lost pretty handily to UCLA. But the funny thing is that I feel much better about them after that game than I did before. Cut out the stupid mistakes, and that's a completely different game. Bomar showed that OU can actually have a passing game this year.

timmynausea · 09-17-2005, 06:32 PM

Clemson just scored on 4th and 2 to keep the game alive.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 06:37 PM

Go Vols!

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 06:37 PM

Interception. Miami wins 36-30.

I felt the same way. There season looks much better. They made a ton of mental mistakes, and those add up over time though. Bomar did look much improved, and much more composed in the backfield. His main problem is holding on to the ball it seems.

Defense needs the most work I think. UCLA was killing them with short routes and plays designed to work underneath the defense.

I was pretty impressed though. going into the game I figured OU would be blown out of the water, but they managed to give UCLA a good run.

ice4277 · 09-17-2005, 06:52 PM

Just based on their current uniforms, if Oregon ever plays Syracuse, my head will explode.
