Re: Why"National Championship" is a crap shoot.

The point is that if you want to make the playoffs be one of the two best teams in the country. Otherwise you may not get in because of the committee. Nothing has really changed except now the teams who were the third wheel have a chance to prove they were the best of the trio. If you're the 5th guy...

Re: Group of Five: Top 15 Power Poll

I have to say I'm be on board for both of those line ups. I'd have to go with Memphis at the top because they taken care of business. I didn't think they would get past Bowling Green. Temple would be on top if not for the 2 point win over UMass last week. BYU would probably be second for me but I do...

Re: RANDOM THOUGHTS SO FAR...

I don't know that VT will end up having any ranked teams on the schedule at the end of the season except for the loss to OSU and a CCG. I think they are doing well. There is an actual offense on the field which has not been the case quite a few years. The soft schedule may prop them up but I doubt s...

Re: Greetings from Columbus.

I don't think people valued BC as much as I do. I saw it as a quality win.

That said, I don't think there are many good teams in the ACC this year which may hurt them. I think they have to go undefeated to make the playoff.

Re: Greetings from Columbus.

I think they'll not look the part for the next few weeks but I think it'll have to do with people underrating the competition.

WMU, Indiana, and MD all are about mid field teams to me but somebody forgot to tell them so they'll be playing like they belong at least for a half.

BC vs Fla St.

We may get the conference championship game tonight. None of the other teams in the ACC has looked good except Georgia Tech and I expect them to fade as usual.

FSU better bring it's "A" game.

Re: Louisville...best 0-3 team in the country?

My sarcasm could not let this go.

They are both the best 0-3 and the worst 0-3 as they are the only 0-3.

Point taken and I agree. I just couldn't let it go.

Re: O'Boy! Jacksonville State

As to faking a knee. It's a bad idea. If you fake a knee then there are probably going to be retaliation hits for breaking an unwritten rule. Most defensive players take it easy on the hits and such when the offense is in that formation as a courtesy. Breaking that courtesy is not a good idea.

Re: Some thoughts...Week 2.

I'm ashamed of myself for picking Butch Jones to beat Bob Stoops. Normally I wouldn't do that, but I doubted Jones down the stretch last year and they finished pretty strongly. :roll: You were a hair away from being right and I don't think that's anything to be ashamed about. I was hoping Tennessee...

It seemed like a drive by ad to promote his blog. Don't think he was much interested in what we have to say only having us read what he thinks.

Re: Virginia Tech

Next man up! The program has too much homerism going on. Too many people coasting on the program instead of manning the oars.

I had no expectations for the year so we'll see what the next man up can do and hopefully make it to bowl eligible.

Re: 3 & a 1/2 Hours

My biggest interest is going to be in Utah and Michigan tonight. How is big blue and we do they stand. Is Utah as good as people think. Other questions that I'll be looking into tonight. Is Georgia Tech worthy of the valuation they are getting. Don't know that we will find out too much with their op...
