For some reason in the first quarter of this game while it was still scoreless I thought to myself "I forgot Fresno beat Rutgers earlier this season. I should have picked them to win this."

It's not like Rutgers is some unstoppable force that they beat, plus that game was a home game for Fresno, but ever since I thought that I've been pretty sure Fresno would win.

Born outside the US. Moved to Miami in the late 80s. My entire family are Canes fans, so I was too, because it was all I watched. Switched around '94, when I started watching college football extensively by myself, and discovered Spurrier's fun n' gun.

So, basically, everything I said was correct.

Not saying its weird to remember dates, just weird to pickup a team to be a fan of especially as late as high school.

I was fan of Ohio State my entire life, theres no where I could pinpoint the "day" I became one as ive always just been one.

I wasn't really raised in a sports fan household, so I wasn't a strong fan of any team really until college. Didn't even get season tickets until sophomore year.

I always get a little mindfucked when I hear Jon Hamm do commercial voiceovers.

 

[GodfatherX]

:lol Saban's suspending TJ Yeldon for a quarter against Colorado State, for the throat slash.

Compare that to autograph-gate, if you will.

was the throat slash sponsored? maybe if he got a some type of endorsement deal, then we could talk about extending it to the ever harsh half of a game suspension

Same here. Probably wouldn't have even gotten into football if we didn't win an NC.

 

[jamesinclair]

[Xplatformer]

The entire city of Fresno will wheep tonight if the Bulldogs don't pull this out.

And if they win, party was cancelled

Authorities pulled thousands of marijuana plants Friday from what was being described as a "large" growing operation near Willow International Community College Center in Clovis.

According to authorities, 8,132 plants were removed, along with the 30 pounds of processed marijuana. The value of the plantings: $32 million, according to authorities.

[Chris R]

Fresno is going to come back and win this I think...

 

[Monroeski]

What the hell, I started watching something else when it was 19-34 and I turn back to find it 40-34.

::edit::
I take it back, looking over the play-by-play it was 25-34 when I left because I remember the long kickoff and long run on the next play. Then I guess Fresno fumbled a kickoff.

How is Boise not jumping that line every time the Fresno QB claps?

 

[GoldenEye 007]

How is Boise not jumping that line every time the Fresno QB claps?

Well sometimes Carr claps twice! Its really confusing.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Too much time left for Boise. All they need is a FG to win it.

 

[jamesinclair]

Did you watch the fresno rutgers game?

Weve got at least another hour here

 

[cruets]

Too much time left. Think Boise will pull it out.....

 

[Monroeski]

Too much time left for Boise. All they need is a FG to win it.

And get me 2 points!

 

[bucknuticus]

How is Boise not jumping that line every time the Fresno QB claps?

Braxton does the same thing, mis it up though, sometimes its 1st,2nd, or 3rd clap

 

[Xplatformer]

Pretty sure that happens every night, dude. They live in Fresno.

Rofl...so messed up. Deh got tumbleweeds doh.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Is that David Carr's brother?

 

[Chris R]

Timeout time I think.

 

[jamesinclair]

Im shitting my pants

1 point safety time just because

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Im shitting my pants

So are the Boise receivers.

EDIT: And the refs.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Is that David Carr's brother?

Yes. Derek Carr played for Clemens High in Houston his freshman year, but left for California when Carr was let go from the Texans.

 

[jamesinclair]

Top 10 team gonna top 10

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Yes. Derek Carr played for Clemens High in Houston his freshman year, but left for California when Carr was let go from the Texans.

Surprised he doesn't fall on his ass from a stiff breeze.

 

[Chris R]

Well that's game. Nice little Friday night shoutout though.

 

[cashman]

Shitty receiver for boise.

 

[Fisticuffs]

is Derek Carr an NFL QB? Will he be i mean

 

[Monroeski]

God, I hate when you get that feeling only a drive or two into a game that you picked the wrong team in the pick 'em and then have your feeling justified in the end.

Its your own fault bro, easy pick is easy

 

[Chris R]

Its your own fault bro, easy pick is easy

I called it being a 35+ point game for each team, that should count for something even if I blew the pick :<

I had Fresno winning by 12.....which was true for like 10 minutes.

How is the Boise Coach not coaching for a bigger name? He's so good at pulling wins out of his ass even when his team is clearly not as talented

 

[GoldenEye 007]

He wants to be there. And arguably, Boise now is a household name.

 

[Monroeski]

Its your own fault bro, easy pick is easy

Like I alluded to in my earlier post, if I had just spent more than 5 minutes making posts and had remembered that Fresno beat Rutgers I think I would have picked them. Need to remember to spend a little bit of time on the pick 'em for the rest of the season.

 

[bucknuticus]

He's had chances, but why leave? He saw what happened to Dan Hawkins when he left. He's beloved in Boise now, can win a garbage conference pretty much every year, and is very low pressure.

Sounds like a great job to me.

This is not a typically good Boise team. And although conference is garbage, he hasn't been really able to recruit well, since it's still ... Idaho.

Is this a bye week? There's only 1 pair of ranked teams playing each other :-/
