Lou already sounds drunk off his ass more than usual tonight.

I anxiously await the "Could Florida beat the Cincinnati Bengals?" debate!

Luckily for them they control the sports media so they never had to eat crow regarding their "USC vs the greatest teams of all time" horseshit before the rose bowl that year.

Haha, the Eagles couldn't.

BTW, I'd love to see Florida against the Detroit Lions, just to demonstrate how much crazier the NFL game is than the college game. There would be crying.

Another exciting South Carolina- NC State game.

Hooray.

WTF happened to Russell Wilson? He looks about 3 steps slow.

Only way state wins this now is if Garcia self-destructs, which the State defense isn't good enough to make him do. Ugh, this is gonna be a long year.
 
Well, this one was a waste of space. Let's hope Boise St-Oregon in half an hour is much better.

Go Ducks!

Don't forget the two weeks they spent hyping the Patriots as the best football team that was ever assembled. It's already started tonight as the commentators for the SC/NCst game spent the 3rd quarter telling us how the SEC team has the bigger, faster, better athletes. Oh, that's right, they just spent a trillion dollars on a contract to show SEC games.

You're right, the SEC speed meme is a new concoction of ESPN.
 
Good lord, how was that facemask not called? That was probably the most blatant one I've ever seen. Good return, lucky that returner's head is still on his shoulders.

which is pretty scary in a sport where subjective judgement plays a huge role in determining the champion.

Kudos to the SEC for getting a great TV contract that will put their teams in a great position both financially and as far as media spotlight goes.

Hell, with the amount of money the SEC is getting their mid-tier teams are going to be able to spend on par with top tier teams in other conferences.
 
Please let karma take its course here.

No, not typical NCSU Karma. The Karma every other team would get here.
 
What the fuck kind of play calling is this? They should have run it there if they are going for it on 4th.

Fuck, they should have run it on 2nd.

Wilson's gotta calm down, he can't be trying to burn his receivers hands off this late.

this too.

Great defensive play by the corner there, although pretty close to pass interference.

Corner has position and had his hands on the ball first. That was just a good play IMO.

Nah, I was talking about before the ball got there, he did some adjusting of the receiver by grabbing his hips and shifting him a bit. It was close IMO.

ah, wasn't paying that much attention. Plus beer.
 
Orson, 9:27: Russell Wilson is Jason Campbell minus good coaching.

Orson, 9:31: Don’t complain, y’all. Tom O’Brien is just doing what TOB does: run out the clock down by 4.

Orson, 9:38: The 3 yard throw on 3rd and 11 just about sums up this entire offense, which should not be watched while driving or operating other heavy equipment.

Orson, 9:45: /startles from chair. What? No, wasn’t sleeping. Not here. /wipesdroolfrom shirt

Orson, 9:46: This drive is all too appropriate: bad punt coverage, pass interference call, pass thrown into double coverage bobbled after double coverage gets blown. Sick donkey fight, continue

Welcome back ESDBS liveblog.:D
 
Will be at Neyland Stadium on Saturday.

Haven't been to a Vols game in a long time. Gotta hit up Walmart and find an orange shirt before I go.....
 
So I only watched the first and fourth quarters of that SC/NCST game, but man, NCST got just plain outcoached. Just looking at their last drive. How do you go into that situation, 4th and short, and need to call a timeout to decide if you're gonna go for it? Isn't that something you should have prepared for at this point?

Furthermore, the first play SC had the ball back, NCST calls their timeout only to see about 5 seconds later that SC had an injured player. If one, just ONE coach, on their sideline or in their booth were paying attention they could have saved a TO, forced SC to call a timeout, and that totally changes the clock dynamic.

Whatever. Not a good showing at all from either team, but particularly bad from NCST.

Here's hoping Oregon/Boise St is a better game.

Not anymore; but Ball St was NOT an 11-1 team last year, talent-wise. They snuck by about 2 or 3 games (including barely escaping from Central Michigan) and were really only great cuz of Nate Davis.

Like Texas fans tend to do, he's jumping the gun a bit.

See?

well it seemed like a defensive battle that wouldn't see another td. but yep, ball state just tied it up. lol

Is it just me, or is this Kenny Chesney song brought out for ESPN's college coverage the most generic song they've ever used?

Raycom and Rascal Flats maybe?

Wow, the Boise St. fans sure are dedicated to that color coding we saw earlier in the thread.
