Point:
my Longhorns are #1 at the moment, I'm predicting they'll stay that way for a while
(disclaimer, if they had been #2 with Bama at #1 I would have been just as satisfied and I hope for a Texas/Bama champ game)


Counter point?

600+ people here and I'm the only CFB fan?

No, I'm a huge college football fan. However, I'm a ND fan and I'm sure all of the hater comments will commence.

4-2 right now, should seriously be 6-0 but hey, we keep plugging away. I'm still not happy with Clausen, lot of hype for a talent which has not fully blossomed yet.

Nope... another Horns fan checking in. That was a damn fine game last week. Gonna be tough with Missouri coming up! If we make it through that I think we have a good chance at staying #1 all season.

I do have to say I was shocked they got the bump from 5 to 1. I figured we would come in 2 or 3. When Missouri lost I thought for sure a #2, but #1 is even better! :D

Husker fan here, last weekends loss to Texas Tech was a heart breaker. We are a different team than we were two weeks ago against Misery, I wish we could have them both back.

I hope Texas whoops Misery, that was a great game for Tx last week too.

I have a good friend who is a die hard huskers fan... we always have a good time watching the huskers-horns game.

I think misery will go down... the game that scares me is the OSU, or Texas tech game... Texas always has trouble with Tech and OSU looks good right now.

Go Jayhawks!

I watched the game with my Husker friends after we all watched the RRS together. I felt bad for them, it was a hell of a game

well, I do hate me some ND, but I won't hate you for liking them. I hope Emu works out for you guys. CFB isn't quite the same with ND so bad, I'd like to see them be at least decent

I hope so! If I had to choose I would of course go with the Horns... until someone can proved they can beat them they are #1.

True, but it is nice to see them fall from grace... a little OT, but kinda like the Yankees did lol... :ss

LSU up by 7, but Carolina is driving with 2:46 left in the half.

Scary....

I don't know that LSU has the firepower to come back if they get down by a couple

Lee will be good eventually, but he's not there yet

Texas is doing pretty well...:D

VT is getting beat again... they better put some points up if they wanna stay ranked...

3:00 left, and Steven Garcia has thrown a costly INT shortly after an LSU score.

Oh, well...

Big win for BC over VA Tech, now tied for the lead in their half of the ACC.
Mark C
10-19-2008, 06:46 AM
Friggin' BC, I swear they're like kryptonite for Tech.

Our defense was on their game, but the anemic offense has got to get it together. I think our defense probably had more yardage than the Off. last night, and gets credit for all 23 pts.

VT vs BC in Jacksonville again? When are the darn commissioners going to wise up and move that game further north, since all the Florids schools suck now.

'nother big day tomorrow! What say you big ten folks?

Another big one or two in the Big 12, what's happening in the SEC? (GA/LSU right?)

Yup... lots of big games.

Texas vs OSU... gonna be another tough one but the horns will pull it out.
Texas Tech vs Kansas should be an awesome game but expect tech to win.

Alabama vs Tennessee is always a tough game, lets hope the vols pull it out! :D
Georgia vs LSU is the big game should be damn good.

Then of course Penn State gets to prove if they deserve to be #3 with a big game at OSU. If they win, they are undisputed #3 or better. If they lose, look for them to drop about 4-6 ranks for their one mistake.

:D

of those, I pick, Texas, KU, Bama, probably Georgia to win

I want to see Texas/Bama in the big game, so I hope Bama runs to table to that point

I am with ya on picks except for the Kansas pick... I don't think they can beat tech. I could see TT beating KU by about 14...

As for the Bama game I just want the best team out there besides Texas to play us... but I too would love to see a Texas/Bama finale...

Who do you pick for the Penn/osu game? I think I might have to pick this as the upset game and go OSU... it will be a close game either way I think...

When are the darn commissioners going to wise up and move that game further north, since all the Florids schools suck now.The best place for the title game is Atlanta in the Georgia Dome. It is the most central for the ACC teams and is probably the most convenient fly in/fly out city in the conference. The only problem is if GT is in the game, it is like a home game for them.

Go Gophers 1-11 to 6-1 hell they go 6-6 this year I'm happy. Still 9-3 would be great.

With their win over Purdue this afternoon, they are now 7-1 overall and 3-1 in the Big 10. The turnaround from last year for Brewster's squad is nothing short of a miracle. Our defense is actually pretty solid, and the Weber-Decker combination has been pretty fun to watch this year. They were coming into this week ranked 24th in the country, and should hopefully improve after this weekend.

With 3 out of our last 4 games at home this season, we might actually have a shot at a New Year's Day bowl game. Who would've thought that for the Gophers at the beginning of this year? Coming off of a 1-11 season last year, Brewster has been pretty damn impressive so far.

huge games this weekend, got to love it. Now with the Phils game (Game 3 of the world series) being rained out I can watch football tonight.

Texas Tech, Oklahoma, and Florida all had crushing wins!! The Longhorns right now are up 14-7 and GA is up 21-10 against LSU. Tonight will be great, PSU vs. OSU!

ND plays Washington tonight at 8. :tu

I was thinking Charlotte. Geographically in the middle, reasonably sized airport nearby, professional stadium, and the weather's still good enough in the winter.

But after Tech's performance against FSU, probably won't matter to me this year :hn

The Orange Bowl ought to be interesting this year, regardless of which ACC team goes, I think they'll get killed.

I did not get to watch the game today but judging by the score seems the Horns were a bit sleepy. I hope they keep it together 8-0 for the HORNS !

OSU played very well, Colt was human, it was as close as the score says

I wonder which TT will show up next week
