Wut?

 

[JCizzle]

This feels like one of the Auburn miracles from last year

 

[george_us]

You had one job, USC.

 

[Paches]

The fuck is Bob Griese talking about

 

[Branduil]

Gonna be amazing if he misses it now.

 

[Kusagari]

LOL

OMFG

 

[JCizzle]

Well, that was fun. Sucks for AZ

 

[Ninja Scooter]

OH MY GOD SARK THE ICE MAN!

Fuck off puny kicker begging for a flag

 

[Corran Horn]

Wow...

 

[Tawney Bomb]

AHAHAHA

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

Clemsoned.

 

[unknownstranger]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

 

[bronkonagurski]

Laces out Dan!

 

[Paches]

Fuck that kicker faking shit. Glad he missed now.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

That kicker can go fuck himself

 

[KingGondo]

Justice has been served. Zona isn't really a top 10 team.

 

[perfectchaos007]

dumb kicker fucking up my pickem

 

[Branduil]

I don't understand why college coaches still play for the long field goal at the end of games. It's such a crapshoot and they had a ton of time to try and score a TD if they wanted to.

 

[Bunta]

Sweet choke job.

 

[unknownstranger]

Someone had to Coug it when we didn't play on Saturday.

 

[bucknuticus]

lolzona, fuck that kicker

 

[Lonestar]

watch out, there's a sniper in the stadium, and he's hunting kickers!

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Sark needs to get his shit together though. This defense has too much talent to be giving up leads and playing undisciplined like this.

 

[bucknuticus]

Should all have known the Dick Rod post top 10 win stat! Thank you based stat gods.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

College kickers are just the worst.

 

[Balphon]

Sark needs to get his shit together though. This defense has too much talent to be giving up leads and playing undisciplined like this.

That would require coaching ability.

 

[theprodigy]

RIP Pac-12 undefeated champ

so now let the one-loss team comparisons begin!

got 11 points in the pickem, eh decent

 

[Alcibiades]

Wouldn't be a Pac-12 game without a dramatic finish.

 

[chicko1983]

Same reasons we usually lose, bad O-Line play and terrible play calling.

I don't think anyone actually believes Zona is the #10 team in the country, they were just obligated to put them there.

My long multi bet for this week:

central florida straight
stanford straight
oklahoma straight
northwestern +4pts
clemson straight
Miss state +2.5pts
NOtre dame straight
Arkansas +10.5pts
Arizona +2.5pts

$20 @ 41:1

Farking Minnesota screwing up my multi bet and costing me $800!

Justice has been served. Zona isn't really a top 10 team.

I totally agree. Pac-12 has a lot of flaky teams though, none of them like the pressure situations or expectations it seems

dumb kicker fucking up my pickem

I think I got three or so right this week, about 10 points worse than last week, pretty much the opposite of everyone else!

 

[Chris R]

Knew he was going to miss it. Fucking Arizona.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

Pac-12 kickers sure like to take acting classes.

 

[chicko1983]

1. FSU
2. Miss State
3. Ole Miss
4. Notre Dame
5. Baylor
6. Oregon
7. Georgia
8. Bama
9. Michigan State
10. Oklahoma

 

[Enfinit]

9 points in the pick em's this week if my calculations are correct. Not too shabby.

 

[perfectchaos007]

1. FSU
2. Miss State
3. Ole Miss
4. Notre Dame
5. Baylor
6. Oregon
7. Georgia
8. Bama
9. Michigan State
10. Oklahoma

Can almost guarantee you Auburn won't fall out of the top 10

 

[theprodigy]

oh boy who's ready for Georgia to be #10 so there will be 5 SEC teams in the top 10

 

[chicko1983]

Can almost guarantee you Auburn won't fall out of the top 10

they should.

I would be putting them behind the mississippi teams, bama and georgia.

They might sneek in before Michigan St or Oklahoma, but they really shouldnt be higher than 8th.

5th to about 20th is a crapshoot anyway.

 

[Xplatformer]

Be honest. Before the season started you guys knew the Virginia/Duke football matchup was going to be huge this year?

Fess up.

God...MISSISSIPI BURNING is all about the pigskin.

That state...

 

[Lunar15]

Driskel was 80% of the Gators' offense tonight.

That's fucking terrifying in so many ways.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Only 6 undefeated teams left and at most only 4 of them can finish undefeated.

Since one of them is Marshall at least 1 team with a loss (probably an SEC team) is making the playoff.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

I believe there are also 3 winless teams left. Kent, SMU, and Idaho State.

 

[Lonestar]

Holtz dancing with the cowbell is truly the reanimated corpse of Granny from Beverly Hillbillies.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Yep. Too bad Idaho State didn't get their crack at Florida

 

[JJDinomite]

Top 25 prediction

1. Mississippi State

[timetokill]

The Pac-12's last undefeated in trouble. The refs need to protect them like SEC refs

The refs sure fucking tried. The uncatchable 2pt conversion, the phantom PIs, the "it's cool, he batted the ball backwards" when the replay CLEARLY shows it going forward.

Too fucking funny that Sark iced the kicker twice successfully. I was laughing by the end, though, just figured USC was throwing away yet another game.

 

[chicko1983]

Only 6 undefeated teams left and at most only 4 of them can finish undefeated.

Since one of them is Marshall at least 1 team with a loss (probably an SEC team) is making the playoff.

If the two Mississippi teams make it to the egg bowl undefeated and then the winner goes onto win the SEC, the two Mississippi teams will both then make the playoffs.

However I can't see both of them making it through undefeated until then. They will both choke due to the pressure of going undfeated at some stage through the season.

I said a couple weeks back (before Bama and Auburn had both lost) that there would not be an undefeated SEC team by the end of the season and that was laughed at here.

There is no clearly best team this year. The winner of FSU and Notre Dame is huge this week. I think if either of those teams lose, they will drop out of playoff contention as some of their performances havent been too convincing so far.

 

[perfectchaos007]

The return of Tuesday night Football begins next week! The MAC and Sun-Belt's time to shine!

 

[vas_a_morir]

Hey you think Marshall breaks into the top 25 this week?

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

Hey you think Marshall breaks into the top 25 this week?

Enough ranked teams lost this week where I could see it being possible. They got plenty of votes last week, so they definitely have some of the poll's attention at least.

Can't help but feel like its been a long long time since Marshall was last ranked. Maybe 8-10 years.

It sucks that this is a legitimately good team, but they are playing scrubs they blow out by 3+ touchdowns every game. Wish the old C-USA was still around, but the teams all moved on to bigger and parallel things.

The fact that the winner of CUSA gets to play like the 3rd best MAC team in a bowl fuckin' sucks. What's the point? P5 should just break away already. Make it official and give a separate 1-A non-P5 national championship. If you play a perfect season, you should at least get the chance to win SOMETHING.

2002 when you had sandwich tossing the pigskin around was the last time you were ranked , maybe this year you can break the school record for highest ranking which is 10th. The year you went 12-0 with chad pennington and still had to play byu in the motor city bowl lol


As for Penn St. loss, fucking sucks. But really cant say im mad. Just because the things changed for us, didnt change this team and shouldnt change my expectations. Going in I knew things were still going to be a process and we'd struggle to get to the 6-7 win mark. We just gotta collect some recruits and build up the team depth and talent pool
