Yeah should be a good one. I just saw that PSU has elected to make this a white-out game this week. Hopefully UCF elects to go with their all black uniforms and alternate black helmets.

Probably a little too early to go to all black, lots players cramping and the black does add to the heat.

Yeah, every game under the lights gets the White Out treatment. That would be a stark contrast of colors.
Finally catching back up from a busy weekend.
So sad about that UCLA player. A life cut too short. Unfortunately the latest media darling will get more coverage than this kid's death.
Thank god for a bye week. We can't turn it over when we aren't on the field, right?
Fuck Jeff Driskel and our lack of a receiver worth a damn.

Jakeem Grant is not a large man.
He's listed at 5'6" 160lbs so he's probably actually 5'5" a buck fiddy.
Tech has always excelled at optimizing undersized receivers though

Over/Under on Tyrone Willingham becoming the next coach of the USC Trojans?
Isn't usc one of the schools Peterson would leave for? Have coaches ever left for schools in conference(if that's even allowed)? I would think they could buy someone who's already had success in the PAC
This is actually wrong. Our WRs are A LOT better (mainly thanks to Joker Philips). They actually run good routes now and we had some guys wide open deep. Driskel just missed them or would check down for a short gain.
Actually our passing game in general was kind of fine, except in the red zone, where it was god awful.
Teddy Greenstein saying that USC or Texas could pry Fitzgerald from NW (which would be very hard due to him being an alum).
I could see Petersen going to USC, they're going to be stacked with premium talent even with the scholarship reductions.
If Strong is ever going to bounce from Ville, this is going to be the year with Teddy going to the NFL.
Btw: What do people consider the top ten premium teams (with attendance/history/sustainability) taking a key part.
I see it as
USC, Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Notre Dame, Michigan, tOSU, PSU. (not in order)
I really should have Nebraska and LSU/Tennessee (over the other Sec teams) in that list, but modern Tennessee is going to take a long time to get out of that hole they built and I just see Nebraska weakening without Oklahoma(and to a lesser extent Texas). I see PSU bouncing back, and their attendance is amazing. FSU/Miami is just too noveau; but then again Florida is kinda too ... ugh.

Briles to texas? I know baylor plays close to the edge on violations, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him in Austin.

I kinda hope both USC and Texas meet in a bowl game this year. More than likely both will need winning records for that to happen which is unlikely. But I would love to see both USC and Texas take their 7-5 records to the Holiday Bowl. Losing coach gets fired, winning coach....still probably gets fired.
Premium to who? Your average football fan, recruits, potential coaches?
Will only be a few teams that are on all those lists
Yeah, its a pretty hard metric to make, for example Miami is going to be insanely popular for recruits and they have had the national titles but the attendance woes that they have had makes me want to exclude them over a team like Nebraska which would never would have that issue but not be nearly as attractive for a recruit.
You can make it for what you think, I really ain't judging, just more curious than anything.
Fixed it for you, remember this is the NCAA.

Early contender for gif of the year right here.
All I know is Texas is thought to be the most desirable job in the country, and they should be able to get anybody they want.
As for the premium programs I would say it goes something like:
Texas
USC
Alabama
Notre Dame
Michigan
Ohio St
Florida St.
Florida
Oklahoma
LSU
Oregon (I think they're here to stay)
What the hell happened to Tennessee

After Week 1 I'll consider it a moral victory if Bama scores 17 points on offense.

This list definitely indicates you have much to learn about powerhouse teams. But that's okay.
I agree with cdyhybrid's list.
UGA defensive end, Ray Drew, directing Redcoat Band after the win over South Carolina. Funny thing is he's an ordained minister, and I'm going to guess that he may actually know how to direct music.

I admire the effort, but you're a little off if we're talking about top programs of all time.. In no particular order, my list:
Alabama
Florida
FSU
Ohio State
Michigan
Florida
Notre Dame
Georgia
USC
Texas
Nebraska

Derp?
I think you're missing Oklahoma (with 7 AP national championships), but it's a pretty strong list (just have it replace that second Florida).
FSU, has just me so confused, I should have them over PSU, especially since PSU has the Michigan and tOSU big boys in their division.

How long are we going back? I think you have a pretty good list there but Florida hasn't really be good until recently, right? (early 90s and then 2000-on)
The other programs have been powerhouses for much longer
Oops. I rearranged them and forgot to remove the original, now they're both gone.
Yeah let me update this, you're right. Oklahoma is more deserving than Florida. I tried to think about who were the most relevant over all time in each conference, as well as ND because it's obvious (even though I hate them).
Alabama
FSU
Ohio State
Michigan
Oklahoma
Notre Dame
Georgia
USC
Texas
Nebraska
I debated that fact actually, which is definitely true. They're a program that sucked until Spurrier got there. Which is a fact most Gatas don't recognize, but I figured I'd be nice and include them. I fixed the glitch thanks to yours and Draxal's reasoning.
I love the support but you guys might want to reconsider that choice if you're actually looking for points. Our defense is going to make the Texas D look amazing. I'll be choosing my team but I'm surprised so many of you are as well. You didn't see the Wyoming game though so I guess I can understand.
If you're not aware of what the original gif is from it's Jack Hoffman, a local Nebraska kid fighting pediatric brain cancer. That gif is from the Nebraska spring game. Here's a YouTube video. As has already been said that is a slightly edited version making light of the BYU/Texas game.
Good man. A stat that every announcer will harp on during every Nebraska game this year: Nebraska is only one of four programs to have at least 9 wins in each of the last 5 seasons. Those programs are Boise State, Oregon, Alabama, and Nebraska. Now if only we could use that consistency to progress to the next level... Nah, that's not gonna happen.
You already played Mississippi State.
So, CBS is going to dedicate a camera to exclusively follow Manziel during the game on Saturday, even when he's on the bench: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/mo...johnny-manziel-camera-eminem-brent-musburger/

True. But the same goes for FSU/Bowden, just ten years earlier (he got there in 76, but weren't the national power for a few years). And they haven't been as relevant since the Jeff Bowden era. Gators became relevant in the 80s but Spurrier pushed them over the edge.
Poor Ten-Ur-See
Top 10 in wins all time, Right outside the top 10 in national championships (and have a more recent one than a few of these teams). Such is the power of The Dooley (or was it The Kiffikens. Or the Secret Witnesses Of Fulmernation)- Status
