Who's doing the new season thread? And when is that?

Think its TTK?

But yes, this is the year of the Citronaut and every cfb thread must mention their ascendance.

 

[StoOgE]

GOD DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMNNNNNNNTTTTTT

I'm pretty sure this is what the Maurice Clarett would say when he ran out of his Goose™

 

[StoOgE]

Think its TTK?

But yes, this is the year of the Citronaut and every cfb thread must mention their ascendance.

If I have anything to say about it every single thread will be themed to the Citronaut's farewell tour from D1 CFB.

Fuck it. I'll do it if TTK can't or doesn't want to.

 

[bucknuticus]

Citronaut is legit one of the best mascots in CFB

 

[andycapps]

You mean the official 2014 UCF Citronauts College Football Season thread?

Think its TTK?

But yes, this is the year of the Citronaut and every cfb thread must mention their ascendance.

Yes and yes.

Fuck it. I'll do it if TTK can't or doesn't want to.

Maybe see if he checks in today and wants to do it since it's his thing.

We're a week away from football, so pretty sure it's time for the official thread, right?

 

[Lonestar]

One day, I'll bully my way into making a topic, and then you'll all be sorry.

It really is.

It's so dumb that they'd dump a unique nickname like that in favor of "Knights."

Rutgers - Champion of the Football Universe.

Not just world. Not just galaxy. Universe.

We will beat the football playing humans who must surely exist somewhere in the Universe, posting on their own version of Neogaf, about the skills of their own respective teams.

That gives me serious wood, knowing that there has to be another world out there where they are playing American football in a college setting. They probably call it American football too, because why not.

You know what. I'm not even ashamed of that. This shit is hilarious.

That's pretty much roll tide

Roll Tide, Sherwin Williams

Roll Tide, Sherwin Williams

Poor guy has gotten that all of his life. :jnc

 

[Subitai]

Roll tide? Roll tide.

That was so great, I feel like it almost deserves its own thread.

It really was great.

Yeah, if there weren't so many other ALS challenge threads right now, it would be a shoe-in. I mean, I've already watched it 6 times.

 

[perfectchaos007]

What was the guy drinking? Moonshine?

This will make mre happy: No current Tennessee player has played in a bowl game. Story here.

Howard Griffith said on BTN that losing Brax drops us to fourth in the conference, behind Sparty, U-M and State Penn (in that order).

:lol

Wiscy is going to be very good. State Penn's ol issues makes me think Hackenburg can be done by the first game of the season.

 

[Subitai]

Howard Griffith said on BTN that losing Brax drops us to fourth in the conference, behind Sparty, U-M and State Penn (in that order).

Yeah, that almost completely ignores the new and improved Larry Johnson-fied defense.

 

[Jhriad]

:lol

Are you sure that's in the conference and not the division? Anyone choosing both of those teams to end up ahead of a number of the other teams in the conference is delusional.

 

[timetokill]

Fuck it. I'll do it if TTK can't or doesn't want to.

I'll pm you.

Yes and yes.

Maybe see if he checks in today and wants to do it since it's his thing.

We're a week away from football, so pretty sure it's time for the official thread, right?

Yup, it's time. I'm selecting the Week 1 pick'em games today.

 

[bucknuticus]

Dont forget to put my conf pickem stuff in the OP.

Also anyone who wants to edit their picks may do it on their OP as I havent put them in the spreadsheet yet. Ill probably do that this weekend.

Damn. Was hoping you'd get at least a few seconds of that awesome song so that it would be stuck in your head all day.

Awesome. Feels like the offseason is limited.

We're still segregated to the little kid's table, aka Community, like everyone else, right?

Clemson lost RB Zac Brooks to a season-ending foot injury. He was the leading returning rusher. Just adds to Clemson's offensive Qs

QB, WR, RB...

But they still have Dabo. And, my friends, when you have Dabo, you have a chance.*

I trying to remember, but were the weekly topics put on OT proper, or stuck here in OT Community?

Also: Coaches at the Major Conferences and their all time records against top 25 opponents (AP Polls). They threw in ND for some reason, though.

 

[andycapps]

Clemson just lost one of their RB's, Zac Brooks, for the season. Probably wasn't a starter but would have seen substantial time.

Yes. Sorry.

No, you're not, you puppet of the man, you.

It's true he's our leading returning rusher, though it's a bit misleading. He had 251 yards rushing last year. They were looking to have a running back by committee this year, and if spring and camp are any indication, I feel that Gallman (RS Fr) is going to be the feature back by midseason anyway.

Wish that I was on ole rocky top,
Down in the tennessee hills.
Ain't no smoggy smoke on rocky top,
Ain't no telephone bills.

Once there was a girl on rocky top,
Half bear the other half cat.
Wild as a mink, sweet as soda pop,
I still dream about that.

Rocky top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole rocky top,
Rocky top tennessee, rocky top tennessee.

Once two strangers climbed on rocky top,
Lookin' for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain't come back from rocky top,
Guess they never will.

Corn won't grow at all on rocky top,
Dirt's too rocky by far.
That's why all the folks on rocky top
Get their corn from a jar.

Rocky top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole rocky top,
Rocky top tennessee, rocky top tennessee.

Now I've had years of cramped up city life,
Trapped like a duck in a pen.
Now all I know is it's a pity life
Can't be simple again.

Rocky top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me.
Good ole rocky top,
Rocky top tennessee, rocky top tennessee.

You don't say.

FSU to go undefeated until playoffs

I think we drop the game against OkSt then run the rest of the table.

 

[bucknuticus]

Sad news out of Kent today, theyre starting center was found dead in his apartment this morning. Initial beliefs are from a medical condition.

lol OKST is a little depleted this year, and their all american corners are gone so Winston should have a field day. J.W. Walsh will have to play mistake free ( lol ) to keep up

UW adds BYU and Michigan to future schedules

The Huskies will play host to BYU Sept. 29, 2018, and will travel to Provo on Sept. 21, 2019. The Dawgs and Cougars have squared off nine times in their history, including most recently in last December’s Fight Hunger Bowl in San Francisco.

Michigan will come to Seattle for a Sept. 5 game in 2020 and then the Dawgs will go to Ann Arbor the following season for a Sept. 18 game. The Huskies and Wolverines have a history that dates back over 60 years and includes four Rose Bowl matchups among 12 all-time meetings.

How nice of us to throw a bone to the Little Sisters of the poor down in Provo.

So got access to osu navy tickets in Baltimore next weekend, debating if I want to make the trip or not

Saban, Miles, and Stoops are in a league of their own. Spurrier would be too if it didn't take so long to get SCar out of the basement.
