Reggie Ball is hospitalized, so Georgia Tech is without his services in this game. Up 21 - 13 now.

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.

Yeah, they played back on defense and gave UCLA whatever they wanted short. They just aren't getting any big plays defensively, it seems. Until that last drive, they absolutely shut down the Bruin running game which was nice.

Kudos to UCLA for shutting down Peterson, who looked a little hobbled to me. But you're right, the mental mistakes were the difference. UCLA made very few, and OU made a lot.

I would've liked to have known who that holding call was on when OU intercepted that pass. I didn't see anything, the ref gave no number, and not even the announcers could see anything. Phantom call at a huge time, completely changed the game.

That's not to say OU would have won, of course, not by any stretch of the imagination. But it certainly would have been more interesting.

JonInMiddleGA · 09-17-2005, 07:03 PM

For all the potential it has, I really hope UT-UF turns out to be one of the most boring games of the year. Screw the drama, I'd be quite content with a 45 point blowout ... assuming it was in the proper direction of course

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 07:05 PM

Damnit. Porter's throwing good passes, except 2 of em went to the wrong colored jersey

Poli · 09-17-2005, 07:05 PM

By that you mean, a Tennessee win.

JonInMiddleGA · 09-17-2005, 07:11 PM

Shameless sponsor whoring by CBS on that intro. And very questionable judgement IMO.

bob · 09-17-2005, 07:12 PM

I love how they figure that the Georgia Southern - Wofford game is going to be a better draw in Atlanta than Georgia Tech - UConn. GT - UConn is only on ESPN U, which cable here doesn't get.

JonInMiddleGA · 09-17-2005, 07:20 PM

Woot - back to back SACKS.
(I just love it when somebody knocks the crap outta Leak).

Poli · 09-17-2005, 07:22 PM

Friggin duty. Sailors interrupting my game.

Young Drachma · 09-17-2005, 07:40 PM

Glad to see Notre Dame lost.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 07:48 PM

Friggin Urban and his friggin option. Friggin sailors.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 07:53 PM

Great comeback by BC. They looked horrible in the first quarter and then got it figured out. Not sure FSU escapes tonight.

Great play call on the reverse in the Vols/Gators game. The Vols need to make something happen on offense shortly. You don't want that Florida defense to pin their ears back and lay into you and I don't think Florida is done scoring.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 07:53 PM

Agreed.

i am so glad ucla won. i think they will crack the top 25 in the poll this week.

my next game i will watch will be usc vs arkansas. Go USC

OU stop ucla running game and our starting WR was out after the first play and we still put up 41 points on there defense.

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 08:06 PM

What the hell.. apparently the ACC refs are in the pockets of FSU.

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 08:06 PM

For those with ESPN GAMEPLAN, Please update me on the UNLV V. UNR game.

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 08:07 PM

HAHA!

We took the ball back anyway!

Great pass by Ainge there and a big drive for the Vols. They needed that one.

FSU/BC is turning into a pretty good game. Should be a fun second half.

They just said technical difficulties have prevented it. I can live with it. the Gator/Vols game is and the BC/FSU game is good enough to watch on "regular" TV. We get spoiled so easily.

ND.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 08:19 PM

Really stupid play call there. I love the innovative coaches that have some guts, but there is a reason you don't go for it when it's on your side of the field. It's wreckless and it costs you games. There is a time to be aggressive, but you aren't playing NCAA '06. You are in a game against a top ten opponent with a great defensive line.

That screw up put his defense in a horrible position and he's going to pay for it with points against. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

HomerJSimpson · 09-17-2005, 08:23 PM

Ok, here is what needs to happen in the Florida/Tennessee game....

Riggs gets to the one yard line and fumbles the ball. Both teams pile on top of each other trying to recover it, and fights break out. Both benches clear and they get into a huge tussle, until several Florida players pull out knives. The Vols players then grab chairs and they all beat themselves up into blood pulps. Everyone who survives are then banned by the NCAA for the rest of the season, and the best season of college football history then begins.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 08:24 PM

Wow. Did he catch that? The refs missed a clear pass interference before the attempted catch though.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 08:24 PM

DOLA, no he didn't catch it.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 08:28 PM

Wow. Urban got away with one there. REally lucky. That's actually a good thing for haters of Florida. He'll think he's got some teflon on and make that dumb of a call again. It will eventually bite him.

Poli · 09-17-2005, 08:29 PM

Let's Go Defense!

HomerJSimpson · 09-17-2005, 08:43 PM

So, Tech fans, any speculation on why Ball is in the hospital?

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 08:44 PM

KABOOM! What a hit!

How he didn't fumble that..

I've heard two different sources reported; one migraine headaches, one a stomach virus. No even remotely official word yet - apparently he was in last night but word didn't break about it until pretty close to game time.

TroyF · 09-17-2005, 08:48 PM

BC have some great lineman on both sides of the ball. Some serious NFL talent on their O and D lines.

CHEMICAL SOLDIER · 09-17-2005, 09:02 PM

Fresno vs. Oregon looks like it'll be a good finish. Heading into the 4th it's 27-30 Oregon.

Logan · 09-17-2005, 09:16 PM

Rutgers just might lose to Buffalo. One of the worst performances I've ever seen.

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 09:18 PM

Defenses have taken over in Boston, this is going to be a really good fourth quarter I think.

DaddyTorgo · 09-17-2005, 09:19 PM

YESSSS. BC FOOTBALL ON THE TOUCHBACK!!! way to dodge the bullet boys!

edit: pending review. way to go Kiwanuka. Guy has some serious skillz.

p.s. family is at the game...i had to work. lucky bastards!

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 09:20 PM

Wow. what the hell just happened?

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 09:20 PM

That was a Defensive END who made that play. Holy shit.

DaddyTorgo · 09-17-2005, 09:23 PM

yeah. Kiwanuka is amazing. Guy really should go top-10 in the draft next year. for people not watching I'd compare him to like I dunno...Jevon Kearse? big rangy DE with a non-stop motor basically. i think he's like 6-7 285 or something like that (just off the top of my head, not too sure what he ACTUALLY is)

Poli · 09-17-2005, 09:24 PM

Oh cripes. Friggin freshman punter.

yeah, besides.. how many players have the presidential seal of Uganda on his back?

(he's the grandson of the first President in Ugandan history).

Read the story ESPN did on him. Real down to earth guy.

SirFozzie · 09-17-2005, 09:27 PM

Damn. That's a beat down Texas Tech is putting on poor Sam Houston University. 80-13/

Joe · 09-17-2005, 09:27 PM

Gophers are up 40-0 at the half and have 442 yards on 42 plays. Guess I'll watch a different game now that its probably scrub time.

DaddyTorgo · 09-17-2005, 09:29 PM

BC has to find a way to shutdown the FSU offense on this drive, break them out of their rhythm or whatever. The 4-wide is starting to kill them.

DaddyTorgo · 09-17-2005, 09:29 PM

dola

not to be a homophobe, but FSU has a guy named "Fag" and it's kinda funny.
