I see FSU is stuck in the 80s with those cutoff uniforms and likes to cheat with the facemasks.
Criminoles indeed.

Haha, he does look kind of ridiculous with it but it's his thing I guess. JWJ is enough of a beast that he can do whatever he wants with his shirt as far as I'm concerned.
Nothing wrong with a good stiff arm!
Oh, I bet you don't care what he does with his shirt.

Gee is such a pimp. And one of the most down to earth guys you will ever meet. You would see him at a party at 2am in the morning on a Thursday night.
Could probably go with the backup long snapper.
"Since 2007, Ohio State has spent more than $64,000 on bow ties, bow tie cookies and O-H and bow tie pins for Gee and others to distribute, the newspaper found."

meanwhile the kids who pay him that money will be in debt for the next 20 years

This was the most fascinating part of the article to me.
As far as big time money football schools the Texas president can't even step to him.

I generally like Gee, but he is obsessed with money.
Spending like this is unacceptable, especially when he's trying to force sophomores to live on campus in a blatant attempt to wring even more money from students.

Holy shit, this is actually my first post in this thread. I am trending WAY behind my usual trend of not posting very much in the first place.
At any rate, I was in San Diego this weekend for my birthday, and found a Buckeye alumni bar to watch the game, so we shared in that collective misery together. Loudly. As my wife said, "it's like being in a room full of you".
On a side note, it's fun to see the Michigan fans scurrying off the Denard Robinson Hype Train. Is "Denard Robinson, Heisman Candidate" the new "FSU is back!"?

It is pretty hilarious how quickly Michigan fans went from "Denard Robinson: Heisman Candidate" to "I can't wait for Denard Robinson to graduate so we can be good again." I think Michigan fans have forgotten that he has single-handedly won more than a few games for their otherwise mediocre team while he's been there...including the last three against Notre Dame.
I couldn't even comment on it when it was happening because I was so vehemently against the decision. But now I can.
WHY DID WE GO FOR TWO WHEN OUR DEFENSE WAS DOMINATING THAT GAME?! Gah! Get the tie, go into OT, make them take a FG, and score a TD. We just drove the field on them, we were starting to find gaps in that defense.
Ugh.

Ugh.
especially when the other team didn't have a kicker, meaning that the team would need to score a touchdown in overtime, something they couldn't do during regulation.
Who is doing this week's thread?
UM was real lucky last season. That kind of luck typically only lasts one season.

This weekend, and the next, and the one after that...at least up until November.
I do CFB vBookie events on a forum I mod on, and I already like to watch tons of college football anyway, so I'll be sticking on here more than I have in the past.
We can always double check our scores independently...and what timetokill does is really cool, IMHO.
I'd agree with it if you were a heavy underdog and you were lucky to just be in a position to win with a 2pt conversion, but BYU looked to be the more physical team. The longer that game went, the better it was for BYU.

I like how half of CFB gaf is in that bullying thread.
At least we're playing Hawaii this week at home. Their defense is terrible, so our offense might actually function at a respectable D1-A level, allowing our defense to not want to kill themselves after the game.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider

I believe ChiTown should do this week's thread in honor of Colorado's first win.
He also made Vandy spend $6 million on upgrades to the school provided house for him when he was there. What a douche. I hate our school president too, but glad Gee isn't at UGA.

Hey man, if you can negotiate shit like that. More power to him, get paid while you can. He is considered the best college president in America. Of the many, mnay times I have met him he has bery super nice and very genuine. The craziest thing about him is that dude knows everyones name. I met him at a party my freshman year, then saw him a week later on campus and he knew my name.
Well it's a big school, and with the kind of resources they're giving him that are akin to a CEO of Apple or Microsoft, I'd hope he's doing well. He'd make a good politician, for sure.

Some of the Gators are doing that shit, too. Must be a Florida thing working it's way up in the latest crop of players. They usually just do it during the spring game, but now in real games, too. Hopefully it abates. Or we go full on and get tear-away jerseys back, too.
What? I must have missed this. Is there a video of it?

Best one I could find. They played it at least twice during the game.
Apparently, the UF band rocked Gangnam Style, but I didn't hear it. Can't find a video or anything either.
Ours did Gangnam style as well but I hate our stupid band so I wasn't really paying attention.
They played the theme again later on in the 3rd or 4th too -- I was loving it. Supposedly the Chiefs also band played Gangnam Style as well but I didn't notice it. Just saw Tomahawk Nation tweet about it.
I saw this video linked to from the Game of Thrones one. I've never heard of I'm Shmacked before but what an awesome job getting to travel around and film this shit..

Heard FSU play Game live, pretty cool. Didn't hear UF band much at all, but espn3, so not great atmosphere.

The Denard Giveth, The Denard Taketh Away.
He's been fun to watch, but never grew as a passer. I've been looking forward to him graduating for years so that Michigan can get back to the traditional style of offense they were known for until the RR era. Not that Michigan was ever a "Quarterback U", but fuck man...at one point there were like 4 or 5 former Michigan QB's starting in the league at the same time. And so while he's been enjoyable to watch on the run, he's been equally scary to watch throwing the ball. And while he's made many big plays in the past, the reality is that a lot of those big plays were really just "miracle" plays made by receivers...and a lot of others were desperation situations that would have probably been comfortable wins with a solid drop-back passer in the vein of what we saw coming through Michigan up until the RR era. In other words, his weak ability to throw the ball made most games--even the wins--much more difficult than they should have been.
That being said, I think Michigan will be fine this year. Notre Dame is playing good defense this year (ask MSU) despite that game being very winnable...and Alabama is Alabama. We'll close the season on a long winning streak. But Denard's style just isn't good enough to beat teams with great defenses, and his losses over his 3 years as starter testify to that. I don't know if he's piloted Michigan to a win over a top 10 defense in his career, and I don't expect that to change this year.
To be honest, I'm disappointed that Gardner hasn't competed better for the starting QB job, though I know he isn't a Hoke recruit either. But anyway, yea...most of my friends look forward to a return to traditional dropback passing and winning. Until then, The Denard giveth...
