I see pick sixes in your future. It's a hallmark of penn st vs Ohio st games.


Also may be out for a bit As I move to a new place tomorrow and not sure when my net is being setup. But going from a 3mb dsl to fiber is going to be holy shit omfg.

McFavre's only thrown 1 so far this season and it has been a tipped pass -- I hope that holds

 

[lush]

I hope Dooley never leaves.

Don't worry, the Tennessee football program has been terrible ever since I've been a fan/cared. The best season we've had since I really started following was 2007 where we got absolutely destroyed by Alabama/Florida and yet still managed to back in to the SEC title game only to lose late in the 4th off a pick 6.

Basically, I feel nothing.

 

[ag-my001]

So every Wednesday night I meet up with some friends and compete in a trivia competition league. One of the questions tonight asked how many undefeated teams were in the AP Top 25.








Can I really be blamed for forgetting Rutgers?

You mean you remembered Ohio State and Ohio, but forgot Rutgers? Sirpopopopopopopop is going to kill you.

Can I really be blamed for forgetting Rutgers?

Yes.

If you're going to forget anyone, forget Michigan State. They're getting crushed by Bama pretty shortly anyway.

 

[ag-my001]

Yep, remembered them too. We actually got the points since we could be +/- 2, so forgetting all about Rutgers had no negative effect at all.

We were ticked at missing the school with the most national championships; went with Yale (27) when the answer was Princeton (28).

I'll let ag's failing slide. Today was a sad day on NEOGAF.

 

[Sirpopopop]

Yes.

Nice.

 

[mre]

Yes.

Eh, we're not playing Michigan State...



We're playing host to Minnesota State, Mankato this Saturday.

So I was going through some of my old subscribed threads and came across this gem of mine. How naive I was... If only I knew he would lead Auburn to the worst season they've had.

Dear Ohio State:

You're welcome.

Signed,

Bowling Green Football (a.k.a. the guys who gave Urban Meyer the chance to be a college football head coach for the first time and had a ton of success with him until he bolted for Utah and screwed us royally)

Sounds familiar...

Dear Auburn:

You're welcome.

Signed,

Iowa State Football (a.k.a. the guys who gave Gene Chizik the chance to be a college football head coach for the first time and was given a good opportunity to turn the program back around until he bolted for Auburn and gave us a reason to get a good human fucking being for a coach) Dated: December 2009.

Haha, I love that all us Chizik-hire mockers turned out to be right.

It really was a terrible mistake changing our name from Florida Technological University to University of Central Florida.

I mean, I understand the reasoning behind it, but if given a second chance, the original name should have stuck.

I was checking out the campus on Google Maps the other day, I like the circular layout, much better than the haphazard mess most universities are. And it's right next to Disney World, so I can see why Spurrier wants to go there next year.

Would be more awesome if it was Science & Technology Florida University. Awkward when the full name is said but the acronym would be worth it.

 

[Quake1028]

Someone not lazy like me should go through AJ's posts and find out how many say just "Go Gatas".

At least it's a geographically accurate name, unlike the University of South Florida.

 

[Lonestar]

Well, he's misspelled it every time, but I see 74 instances of it.

1st Instance
I like that he was immediately corrected.


Did you guys know that he didn't show up till Feb. 2011? 21,000 posts in a 1 1/2 years.

Someone needs to re-evaulate his priorities in life. Less posting, more jorts-buying.

 

[Lonestar]

Hell, I'm sitting at 28k in 8 years, and I always feel like a socially inept doofus by the amount of time I waste on here.

Things aren't as bad as they seem!

 

[Monroeski]

I'm disappointed in The Mask's video this week. I haven't watched any of them before but I've heard how funny everybody seems to think he is. After he posted "Hey Red Raiders! I'm preparing for the video and I want you to know ahead of time you will be mad! EMAW NATION is here to stay. MASK OUT" on Twitter earlier this week I was expecting better smack. Not even any mention of tortillas or Raider Rash.

 

[LosDaddie]

Did you see us play Stanford? Besides, we are more banged up than you are (not counting that awful injury to your RB). Cannot wait for the bye in two weeks

I'm just saying I don't expect a blowout against you guys. At 6-2, Duke has a better record than all the other teams FSU has played other than CU. And I imagine FSU players will have a hard time getting pumped up for game against you guys.

Sloppy first half (again for FSU), and they pull away in the 3rd.

I like you

GAta girls have flat asses confirmed.

teamcatlab has released a legendary video:

That's true. Glad we had a map handy for the rename.

 

[Lonestar]

I don't know who catlab is, but he/they make some damn good/strange videos.

Just an interesting beat.


Oh, and Bravo NC State Fan who edited UNC's wiki page:

But who doesn't love being known as U Can't Finish?! (I doubt this is used these days quite as much, but it was all the time when I was growing up)

 

[GoldenEye 007]

But who doesn't love being known as U Can't Finish?! (I doubt this is used these days quite as much, but it was all the time when I was growing up)

It's still around quite a bit within the student population. Usually stemming from class registration issues preventing timely graduation or miscommunication issues from the advising office.

The more dominate one now it seems is Under Construction Forever.

 

[BertramCooper]

Kent Read, Kent Write, Kent State will always be my favorite derogatory college nickname.

 

[LosDaddie]

But who doesn't love being known as U Can't Finish?!

That's a good one. I'm going to use that

 

[andycapps]

Someone posted a picture on Twitter of some boiled peanuts and now I have the craving. Turns out it's hard to find a place in Columbus, OH that sells raw peanuts..

I always find it amusing when smaller state schools take a run at the state flagship institutions.

Like UCLA vs Cal

 

[Meier]

An oldie (for the locals) but a goodie. There was another humorous nickname that I can't recall.

 

[Sirpopopop]

Right, when Cal is taking on the flagship.

I know you want to hate on UCLA, ChiTown, but the honest truth is that UCLA is the system's flagship and Cal is some small school for hippies.

It has no business being in the Pac-12, it is impossible for Cal to compete.

Farmers markets are your best bet.

Likewise, UNF is U Never Finish.

There's also You Can't Fail or You Never Fail.

 

[andycapps]

Farmers markets are your best bet.

I found some at a place here called Andersons. Picking up 4 pounds after work.

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

I have never had a boiled peanut. Are they soft? And are they brined?

 

[Lazy Man's Wallpaper]

Soft and salty as hell and I had some HOT ones and man they were good.

 

[andycapps]

I have never had a boiled peanut. Are they soft? And are they brined?

Brined? Is that Yankee talk for salted? If so, then yes. You boil raw peanuts in the shell for hours in salty water until they're tender. It's mostly a Southern thing but doing some Googling I found out that some Vietnamese do it too. The taste and texture are kind of like edamame.

You can also do boiled peanuts cajun style. I'm going traditional for the game on Saturday. I am so excited.

 

[Lonestar]

haven't had Boiled Peanuts in probably 10+ years. I remember them being good, but damn if they don't come from the shadiest of the shady places of the world.

 

[LosDaddie]

A decent-to-good snack, but many times they are too soggy

Indian peeps do it too. Texture is usally softer than edamame though, at least the ones I've had.
