DarkJourney Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Big East football is awful. Just fold now and don't worry about adding UCF (by the way lost to SMU 38-17) and others. Clemson is a fraud and Virginia Tech will likely come out of the ACC as champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's... uh... unexpected, considering Coach Pete never runs up the score that badly on anyone.Same team gave up 38 to San Jose State at home who in winning there broke a 13-game road losing streak. Sonny Lubick retired and that program has gone away quickly. If Clemson wins, Dabo is coach of the year or Chad Morris will win the Frank Broyles Award for Assistant Coaches.

He just needs another year and he should bring CSU back to respectability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Bunch of big upsets today...Michigan State beat Michigan & Virginia beat Georgia Tech... Today is a good day in Charlottesville!!! Wa Hoo Wa!!!Sparty was favored and GT really had not been tested. Those two, along with Zook being Zook against tOSU prove that those three teams were ranked higher than they deserved to be. With Clemson struggling early, by the end of the night, teams ranked from 10 - Others Receiving Votes could all be interchangeable.Exactly. The rankings are really just a list of who has the most wins and least losses among the teams from BCS conferences. Going into this weekend, Florida wasn't ranked while Illinois sat at #16. How many people here would bet on the the Illini beating the Gators if they played? How many people here would take #11 Michigan over #24 in the AP Poll (unranked in the USA Today Poll) Auburn? Who wants Illinois over unranked USC? And so on...Exactly. I haven't seen Georgia Tech play but I bet they're in the same boat as Illinois and Michigan. These are just BCS teams that had won all of their games in relatively easy first half of the season. It really takes a while for the rankings to accurately place the top 25 teams.

They were 6-6 overall and 4-4 in conference play. If it weren't for everyone but Utah, BYU and TCU being really bad that year, they would have been lucky to win 4 games. Unless they somehow are able to win at least 6 games this year, Fairchild will probably be fired at the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 No they would'nt. No way a team scores over 70 anymore in this day and age.Allow me to point you in the direction of last year's Indiana-Wisconsin tilt.I know the game. What I'm saying is if Bama played Indiana in a non conference game, Saban isn't going to put 100 on them. They would be respectful against a barely (if ever) played opponent, and not run it up to 100.The hell they wouldn't.

CityOfWalrus Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 The hell they wouldn't.I see one Bama TD in the 4th, 2 Bama TDs in the 3rd and they won 49-7, I wouldn't say that was exactly "running it up" and I also still don't see Bama putting up 100 on an opponent. I only see a 49-7 win. That's what will said that LSU & Bama would put 100 up against Indiana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why it stayed under a 100-not some considerations about honor or player safety./Seriously, you think Nick Saban would take his foot off the gas pedal?

They made a deal with the devil when they went with the triple option, and this is the price they have to pay.Props to Virginia, though. 4-2 with several winnable games left on the schedule.

Still MIGHTY Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Tough game for ASU last night. They hung around for as long as they could, but Oregon was just faster, made better 2nd half adjustments, and it didn't help that Erickson made some bad decisions too. I didn't expect the Sun Devils to win, but they played very well considering. And hell, I almost think it would have been closer if Thomas didn't get hurt. The speed Oregon's back-up QB brought to the option in that second half just confused and killed ASU.Ah well. More than likely ASU should win the Pac-12 South, and could possibly win out to the Pac-12 Championship game. ASU still has a shot at this thing. The tough thing with that though is no matter what, they'll probably be on the road. If it's Oregon, then who knows, hard to beat a team twice in a season. If it's Stanford, ASU was closer against Stanford last year than they were with Oregon even (probably should have won that Stanford game, honestly), so that'll be an interesting match-up. If somehow Washington pulled this off, there would be the possibility of ASU hosting the game, and I'd be confident that ASU could win that and go on to the Rose Bowl.Long way to go before it's sorted out, but ASU will get another shot at this thing. Go Devils. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
