Well we got 17 more points than last time when we went to Ames!

Yay progress!

This game was the lowest scoring BIG XII game I've personally seen in some time.

He said the Vols have “great things going on right now.”

“The last two years have been some of the best years in the last 20 years of Tennessee football."

I legitimately hate this guy more than Dooley. What a complete and utter loser.

Mike Leach, everyone.

"Really, today is Monday, but to me it's Tuesday," Leach says. "So Tuesday will be Wednesday and Wednesday will be Thursday. But then again, we'll probably do our Thursday night routine about like we normally would, so Thursday, really, is just kinda Thursday. And thinking back on Sunday, it was really more like Sunday and Monday combined. But today? Monday? This is definitely Tuesday."

This is just classic Leach (when asked if this game was similar to being at Texas Tech for 6 years and finally beating Oklahoma)

"I think that we are really very shallow people," he says. "All we care about is winning the next game. The big picture isn't really our deal. When the Egyptians were building the pyramids or the Romans were building roads, or you had the westward push with the railroads, I don't think that the guys on the ground were spending a lot of time thinking, 'Hey, hundreds or thousands of years from now they will look back at the brick I have just laid down here and say that I changed the world!' No, that guy who broke his back and died right there on the spot, he was just doing work. The ones who survived, they just kept their heads down and focused on their task each day, and maybe one day they finished and looked up and went, 'Wow, will you look at what the hell we just did here?' If you aren't focused on what's right here in front of you, if you're daydreaming about what might be, you really aren't focused at all."

Leach, the absolute madman, is great.

Leach, the both feet-in Trump supporter... not so much.


Also, any good reason why Auburn is favored by 9 right now?

 

[Vanillalite]

It just seems weird as fuck that one of the top 3 games of the weekend is randomly thrown on at 10:30 PM tonight vs being on tomorrow.

I'll miss probably the first half, going to a concert that starts at 9. But it's going to be a great game.

 

[MugiwaraCole]

To be fair, can't imagine I'd watch a Pac-12 game if it wasn't coming on on a Friday night, so, I'm happy.

I still think it's funny that Auburn is ranked as high as they are.

Holy shit, that's right; Virginia Tech has a football team.

Hell have they been up to for the last 3 weeks?

Working on beefing the Strength of Schedule with wins over Delaware, East Carolina, and Old Dominion.

Fixing the Lunch Pail. Buffing that metal box is harder than you would think.

Is this even legal

ECU would actually be theoretically strong FBS opponent, and they beat the Hokies in 2008, 2014, and 2015. Not working out these past couple of years.

You know what, I'm going to have to cut them a little bit of slack on Old Dominion, too. They went 10-3 last year (7-1 in C-USA). Didn't realize they had moved up to FBS.

Delaware is FCS, though.

When Butch gets fired at the end of this season, he's going to complain that his success wasn't good enough for the unreasonable fans at Tennessee.

No, Butch. It's going to be because you wouldn't stop with your inane bullshit and your Trumpian comments to the press. How has nobody in that entire athletic department told the man to shut his mouth yet?

He didn't need the "when they get drunk" part.

Well, everyone in the Faculty section seems ok.

That's basically every SEC game ever.

Glad Mac isn't that delusional.

How USC is only -5.0 I have no clue.

E Z $$$

 

[Slo]

B1G opener for the Illuminati! Got me some DFH 90min and Bell's Hell to ease the pain.

 

[Rvaan]

Here's why:
1) PAC. 12. AFTER. DARK.
2) USC hasn't look Nat'l Champ great like we thought the might be.
3) Darnold has 7 INTs on the year. That's worrying.
4) Wazzu and Mike Leach at home are prone to wild shit.

Richt just called a TO 10 seconds into the game.

Hahahahaha.

 

[Rvaan]

5) Wazzu is due for more wins in the series.

Just like Kentucky is due for a win against Florida? 😛

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Jets gonna draft him and continue the USC QB curse.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

It's supposed to be 60 degrees in Pullman and USC rented heated benches. Soft ass babies.

Cougs by 69

Just like Clemson due for a BB win against Carolina in NC.

#82 Ahmmon Richards from Miami is definitely gonna play on Sundays

 

[PlayALLtheGames]

Miami is fucking slinging it even with tight coverage.

Other teams constantly remind me of what a good offense looks like. It's kind of annoying.

 

[Monroeski]

As I do the pick 'em I find myself wondering why Stanford is so heavily favored over Arizona State. Three score favorite seems overly heavy.

Oklahoma State is only a 10.5 point favorite in our game, and that's a game with a team that was top 6 a week ago versus one that didn't make a bowl game last season.

Stanford gets overvalued every year. ASU is bad but if the stars align they could pull it off.

 

[Slo]

Sell stock in the Fighting Illuminati.

 

[Vanillalite]

Looked like PI on that 4th down play to me.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Never wear these uniforms again.

 

[Vanillalite]

Never wear these uniforms again.

Hey I think you didn't get the call on 4th. Looked like the dude had his left hand wrapped on him.

Get that and maybe you at least get a field goal there.

 

[Quake1028]

I would give my life for Ahmmon Richards.

 

[Quake1028]

And Braxton Berrios. And Mark Walton. But not Malik.

 

[Quake1028]

Wazzu looks great in the dark gray.

 

[Vanillalite]

Still not sure how good Miami actually is.

 

[Vanillalite]

Can we talk about how Richt looks like an Orange Man now?

 

[Quake1028]

Still not sure how good Miami actually is.

It’s just been a fucked up season because of the hurricane. We were off campus for almost two full weeks.

I’ll take this win. Duke is good. On the road. Friday night which is odd. Had all the makings of an upset but I think overall we played well.

 

[Chris R]

Go Cougs ;_;

I hear ya. I'd take it and roll not worrying about if you're for real or not.

On the same token I'm not sure how real USC is either.

Like I know Bama is for real and I know Clemson's D is. Outside of that not sure.

 

[Vanillalite]

Holy shit that hole

 

[cdyhybrid]
