Now because I'm not going to be here doesn't mean you can't leave comments or announcer quotes. Feel free to discuss the college football action right here today. Here's your Announcing schedule and the Must List.
Mourning Games:
- Here's the mascot head Corso wore today. You can't tell me there is an uglier mascot head than the TCU one.
- Gameday got a little crazy today. Between Corso and legendary BYU coach Levell Edwards having a mascot head showdown and this little number. The Gameday guys were talking about Arkansas when Corso said this, "Arkansas, "Blew their wad." Naturally Kirk couldn't stop laughing and we had one awkward moment.
- Baylor went on a 10 play drive and only picked up 11 yards. You can't make this stuff up.
- Terrelle Pryor hasn't completely sucked today. He's thrown a touchdown and just ran one in. He ran the read option play perfectly, proving his high school coach actually has a clue. Maybe Tressel will actually start using that play more often..........
Check out this hit from the Virginia-Georgia Tech game. A Georgia Tech player destroys a Virginia punt returner, then recoveres the fumble. Also listen to Doc Walker because he sounds almost like Dusty Rhodes.
Afternoon Games:
- Everything is right in the world again. For a second there I thought you really could ride a Rainbow on a Unicorn. Then Jonathon Crompton threw an interception and I knew I was back knocked back into reality.
- Watching this Alabama-Tennessee game is reminding me of a boring Big Ten game. Both teams run a pro-style offense and both defenses have been shutting down each other's offenses. 6-3 Alabama with 6:47 to go in the 1st half.
- 9-3 Alabama at half, in a offensive struggle. Both teams suck in the red zone. I'm not so sure Alabama is a good as I thought they were.
-13-9 Notre Dame over Boston College at halftime. It's at least not raining in South Bend, so Chuck Weis doesn't look like a drowned Polar Bear.
- Despite the rain, Penn State is beating Michigan 32-10 in the 3rd quarter. It's too bad Penn State didn't look this good against Iowa.
- Despite Jonathon Crompton's best efforts, Alabama was still able to beat Tennessee 12-10. Alabama blocked the Tennessee attempted game-winning field goal. Jay and myself noticed Lane Kiffin starting to celebrate on the sidelines before they attempted the kick. You had to know that was going to bite him in the ass.
Night Games:
- It's already 14-0 TCU over BYU in the 1st quarter. BYU doesn't have enough speed to compete with TCU. Besides this game, there really isn't a very interesting game on. So I probably won't update the thread as much as usual.
Check out the unbelievable ending to the Clemson-Miami game. Clemson won the game in overtime.
21-7 TCU over BYU at half. BYU went for it on 4th and goal and scored their first touchdown of the game.
- Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be watching UFC 104 for the rest of the night. Feel free to still leave comments on the games you are watching or leave comments on UFC 104 if you are watching it.
Sign me in and I will update the thread while you are gone.
ReplyDeleteMinnesota punted from the OSU 35 yard line. Cowards!
ReplyDeletePryor looking good so far.......
ReplyDelete/waits for a Pryor INT
Pryor drives OSU to Minny's 10 yard line, can't convert for the TD, then OSU misses the Field Goal. Anyone else have the feeling Ohio State is going to lose?
ReplyDeleteMinnesota keeps beating themselves in this game against OSU. Now they fumbled and OSU recovered.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why I'm punishing myself by watching Minnesota vs. Ohio State.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm just a gluton for punishment.
Coach-Player fight on the Minnesota sidelines.
ReplyDeleteKirk is so mature.
ReplyDelete@Jay- I'm with you. For some reason I can't stop watching the OSU-Minny game.
ReplyDeleteTouchdown Ole Miss, 14-0 Ole Miss
ReplyDeleteI guess Arkansas really did blow their wad?
Whoa! Pryor actually threw a touchdown instead of a interception.
ReplyDelete@Keith- The receiver still had to slow down to catch the ball.
ReplyDeleteWatching Pryor play quarterback makes me want to go back to bed and cry in a pillow.
ReplyDeleteFowler also said on Gameday that TCU or BYU (not sure which one he meant) uses that the school has a 60 % female popualtion as a recruiting tool.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure he meant BYU. Those Mormon boys love to marry early.
ReplyDeleteHey Pryor actually ran in a touchdown.
ReplyDeleteSHOCKING!!!
Where is AA today with the Pammies? I have some excellent quotes.
ReplyDeleteDuke is beating Maryland 7-3. Maybe AA and also kt1000 are drinking together?
ReplyDeleteSome announcer goodness from GA Tech / UVA:
ReplyDelete"Throw it to soggy Hoggy" - Steve MArtin to sideline reporter Mike Hogewood pouring at UVA
"They fall forward" - Martin on GT's running game
"Watch the rejection here" - Doc Walker as GT's Jonathan Dwyer breaks a tackle
"Go to the unbalanced side, walk the dog"- Walker as GT scores a TD
Can't go a week without a good Doc Walker quote.
ReplyDeleteAA might be at JMU game, or on Zorn fire watch
ReplyDeleteAA is probably at the Redskins headquarters with his pitch fork.
ReplyDeleteJust leave your quotes here until AA puts up the Pammy thread.
"That's a phone booth fight."-Spielman
ReplyDelete"I would hit you in the knees."-Pasch
"Where's Juan Pablo Montoya."-Spielman
"Eating a taco."-Griese
@49er16
ReplyDeletePro: Gameplan still lets me experience Doc Walker rambling since I dont live in ACC market anymore.
Con: Endless Sportscenter promos instead of the locally produced commercials
I don't live in ACC country or have Gameplan, so I've never experienced a Doc Walker game. I guess I'm not missing much.
ReplyDeleteAA must have heard us. He's put up the Pammy thread.
ReplyDelete"You want to win you gotta score a TD" - Doc Walker, UVA currently trials 20-6
ReplyDeleteAdam Webber's regression is Juice Williams-like.
ReplyDeletePryor runs for a touchdown, but the Ohio State receiver is cuaght holding.
ReplyDeleteOnly at Ohio State.
Tressel teaches a football class at Ohio State.
ReplyDeleteWhat does he teach? What not to do with a five-star recruit?
Pryor having a nice game. Too bad it's against Minnesota.
ReplyDeleteits 20-9 GT in the 4th qtr
ReplyDeleteand trust me a Doc Walker game has to be heard to be believed...
kt! Your alive!
ReplyDelete@Keith rough night last night...;-)
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling. I'm dragging ass right now as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm about ready though to grab some lunch.
Anthony Allen TD run 26-9 GT
ReplyDeletehow in the hell did these guys lose to Miami?
@kt, I have no idea.
ReplyDeleteDid you see that Tech drive that lasted 10 minutes?
For some reason I've been hypnotized by this Minnesota-Ohio State game. I want to turn the channel, but I can't.
ReplyDelete@Jay sticking with a Big 10 ESPN game is always a bad move
ReplyDelete@Keith no, but it's all these announcers are talking about. hope you get some good food!
it looks like Jonathan Dwyer isn't hurt that badly
I saw that 10 min drive, it was dominating. Just announced GT has had ball for 16 of 20 minutes in 2nd half
ReplyDeleteAll right, I'm going to grab some lunch. Hold down the fort for me.
ReplyDeleteOhio State scored again. Once again though they are playing Minnesota. If this was Penn State or Michigan, it might actually mean something.
ReplyDeletePaul Johnson just channeled his inner Bellicheat. 40 yd pass leading 27-9, 7 min left in 4th
ReplyDeleteMaryland is losing to Duke 10-6 at halftime. If they go down, they shouldn't be alowed back into College Park with out firing Ralph Friedgen and OC James Franklin
ReplyDelete@kt1000 11:57
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree, I suffered thru the Vanderlinden / Duffner era, so I know how bad it can get. Time to unplug the Fridge.
Rushing Yds: GT 320 , UVA 30
@jgreul my freshman year at UMD was Vanderlinden's first year. I still remember the speech he gave at our orientation, promising to be ACC Champs by the time we graduated. He was only off by 6 months.
ReplyDeleteif this satellite stays out, then it looks like i'm to the local pub...
Its a final at Charlottesville: 34-9 GT
ReplyDeleteUConn 24 the hillbillies from WVU 21
ReplyDeletewhat a run by Noel Divine! somehow he
ReplyDeletemanaged to not go out of bounds
TD WVU
28-24 WVU 2:10 to go
ReplyDeleteUConn returns the kick to the 47...they have a real shot
ReplyDeleteUConn is at the WVU 32
ReplyDeleteThis UConn-WVU game has actually been the best game today so far.
ReplyDeleteFumble recovered by UConn back at the WVU 44...3rd and long
ReplyDeleteYou have to catch that, son.
ReplyDeleteInterception and WVU ball. Game over.
ReplyDeleteterrible ending for UConn....
ReplyDeleteand the satellite is down again
this is frustrating...
and here we go with Tennesse-Alabama
ReplyDeletemy god it looks like the booth in Alabama is located on the goal line. what an awful spot to do a game from.
ReplyDeleteWow! I just realized that too kt. That is a horrible spot to call the game.
ReplyDeleteTD Duke on 4th and Goal at the 2...
ReplyDelete17-6 5:35 in the 3rd
Fire Ralph Friedgen Now!
I see Maryland is going through the same situation as Florida State. Plus with the coach in waiting doesn't make that situation any easier.
ReplyDeleteAlabama is trying to cheat by shutting off the Tennessee head sets.
ReplyDeleteit so looks like Monte Kiffin is actually the coach of Tennessee and Lane is a low-level assistant.
ReplyDeleteLaney looks like he just graduated high school.
ReplyDelete@Keith the coach in waiting at MD is a big part of the reason the team is so bad..the offense has gone from an option-pass mix to pure west coast offense.
ReplyDeleteTouchdown Maryland Devin Meggett!
67 yards on the screen
17-13
From Dan Wetzel's twitter account.
ReplyDelete"Tennessee's Smokey the dog almost bit a Bama cheerleader's leg in pregame festivities. He has a better eye for talent than Steve Phillips"
Steve Phillips will be a punchline for the rest of his life...
ReplyDeleteTennessee actually looking good at the start of this game
Too bad Tennessee has to play offense.
ReplyDeleteend of the 3rd Quarter at Durham...
ReplyDeleteMaryland recovers a Duke fumble at the 1!!
ReplyDeleteEverything is right in the world again. Crompton throws an INT.
ReplyDeleteJason Bristol has a weird obsession with the word "BOOM!"...
ReplyDeleteBloomsburg 21, Shippensburg 13 at halftime.
Now a JFein sighting? What in the world is going on?
ReplyDelete3-0 Alabama
great time for a pick Turner...it is unbelievable that Maryland is about to lose to Duke
ReplyDeleteI can't believe the way Tennessee has driven down the field on Alabama.
ReplyDeleteCrompton overthrows his receiver. Tenn has to settle for the field goal.
ReplyDelete3-3 all
and the Maryland returner muffs the punt and the Dookies recover...Duke will win 17-13
ReplyDelete/when does basketball season start?
//FIRE RALPH FRIEDGEN AND JAMES FRANKLIN NOW!!!
the only thing that is going to calm me down after that abortion is pizza and beer...later
ReplyDeleteWill the basketball team be any good this season, kt?
ReplyDeleteAlso 6-3 Alabama in a snoozefest.
3-2 Notre Dame in the bottom of the 3rd inning.
ReplyDeleteNotre Dame once again goes with the fake field goal and scores. But wait.......holding on Notre Dame. No touchdown.
ReplyDeleteNotre Dame has to attempt the field goal again.
The field goal is good. 6-2 Notre Dame in the top of the 4th inning.
@ 49er16: I've been running around like a mad man doing a shit load of errands that need to be done at home.
ReplyDelete14-0 Cal over Washington State just seven minutes into the game.
ReplyDelete"4 fingers are up, but this one will decide the index finger. Who will be number one in the PSAC?" - Jason Bristol as we head to the 4th quarter. 24-21 Bloomsburg over Shippensburg.
ReplyDeleteWashington State is really bad.
ReplyDelete21-0 Cal in the 1st quarter still.
28-3 Cal, still in the 1st quarter.
ReplyDeleteNotre Dame scores right before halftime. 13-9 Notre Dame
ReplyDelete35-3 Cal over Wazzu barely the start of the 2nd quarter.
ReplyDeleteJeez! 35-3 Cal? Where was that team against Oregon and USC? Or is Wazzu that bad?
ReplyDeleteIt's more Wazzu being that bad, compared to Cal's offense being that good.
ReplyDeleteWhere's JFein?
ReplyDeletePenn State is handling Michigan quite well.
Touchdown Penn State!!!!
ReplyDelete32-10 Penn State. Where was this team against Iowa?
The Tennessee-Alabama game is a snoozefest.
ReplyDeleteFuck!!! My Huskies lost!!! ;-(
ReplyDeleteDown by 6, Shipp had a long drive that included a 4th and 13 conversion that ended in a touchdown with less than a minute left giving Shipp a 28-27 left. Penalties killed us on that last drive.
Bloom drove to the 50 yard line with 11 seconds where inexplicably instead of throwing a 15-20 yard pass to get in FG range (we have one of the best kickers in D-2 and he can get 50-yarders), LaTorre threw it down the field instead for an incompletion. At this point, my satellite signal went out so I can't tell you exactly what happened on the last play with 4 seconds left, but I've checked the internet and I turned on a radio stream and it's official.
Shipp 28, Bloom 27.
Unlike the FBS where something like that would be deadly, D2 does have a playoff and we are either 1st or 2nd now in the conference (it's been awhile since I saw the standings) so all hope is not lost. We lost a game last year and still made it to the national quarterfinals where we lost a game we should have won.
ReplyDelete@ Jay: Suck it, Forcier! Suck it, Rich Rod! ;-)
@JFein,
ReplyDelete/cries
//Your learning
Yankees game is postponed. Phillies now have to wait longer for their next opponent.
ReplyDeleteWatching Crompton destroy this drive for Tennessee is funny is a sick sort of way.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Notre Dame is back, that's why they are struggling against Boston College.
ReplyDeleteGame 6 of the ALCS is postponed.
ReplyDeletehttp://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20091024&content_id=7540048&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb
Oof. Jay beat me to it big time.
ReplyDelete/That what happens when I don't refresh the thread.
GBWAHHHAAAHAHAHA
ReplyDeletesuck it Clausen with your 2 inch veritcal
@JFein
ReplyDeletewill Fox push a Game 7 to 4 in the PM so they don't have to postpone "So You Think You Can Dance?"
@kt, they will play that game at the same time as Sunday Night Football.
ReplyDeleteHEY CHARLIE YOU FAT TUB OF GOO
ReplyDeleteClausen is your best offensive player, why the hell is there a Wildcat in the playbook, much less on the field?
Notre Dame was just stuffed on a 4the and Goal.
ReplyDelete16-13 Boston College
@ Keith... i was asking about Monday, if the Angels win
ReplyDeleteSame time as Sunday, kt.
ReplyDeleteman that was some stick by #8 of BC on that 4th and Goal to prevent that TD
ReplyDelete@Keith thanks!
ReplyDeleteIf Matt Ryan was still playing at BC, they would be beating Notre Dame by 30.
ReplyDeleteway too conservative right there by the Eagles
ReplyDeleteThe Utah / Air Force (VS) and Clemson /Miami games are pretty good also.
ReplyDeleteA player from Clemson just popped lost ball and his helmet. He appears to be OK.
Added bonus: Utah /AF sideline reporter Lindsay Soto
@Jay 3:38 that is so true
ReplyDelete/saw Matty Ice destroy them in 07 at Notre Dame
@jgreul- What is Soto wearing?
ReplyDelete@ kt: From what I've seen thus far, Game 7 is at 7:57 PM ET on Monday. So in other words, Rupert, Lythgoe, and Fox are praying for a Yankees win tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteSunday's game is at 8:20.
oh that should have been picked..but Golden Tate takes it in for a ND TD
ReplyDeleteTouchdown Notre Dame, 20-16
ReplyDeleteAnd Jimmy Clausen is still one of the uggliest people I've ever seen.
@49er16
ReplyDeleteOnly saw from waist up suit jacket and turtleneck. Made AF Coach Troy Calhoun sound like an idiot at halftime.
Hell I think Doug Flutie could come out of retirement and beat ND by 30
20-16 ND 8:12 left
ReplyDelete@JFein thanks! and yes the Fox Network have all of the sudden become huge Yankee fans
@jgreul-Thanks, I was hoping for the same attire she wore during the Sharks-Ducks series.
ReplyDeletenot a very good drive by the Eagles
ReplyDeleteAnd BC just blew their load.
ReplyDelete/Corso'd
And Tennessee is down by 2 with 1:19 left and they just recovered the onside kick.
Blew their wad.
ReplyDeleteCorrect'd
Utah / AF tied at 16, going to OT
ReplyDeleteSlow news day: FOX News Channel just ran piece on Philly Phanatic
will Tom Hammond please shut up and stop yammering about the beautiful Notre Dame campus?
ReplyDelete2nd and 15 for Tennessee also known as 2nd and Crompton.
ReplyDeleteTennessee is in field goal range.
ReplyDeletewhat a catch by Stocker the TE!! Tennessee is going to have a chance here...
ReplyDeleteHere we go. Tennessee is going to attempt a game-winning field goal.
ReplyDeletei'm having uncomfortable flashbacks to last Sunday...
ReplyDeleteKiffin is starting to celebrate a little early.
ReplyDeleteHoly crap.....Tennessee may just beat Alabama.....
ReplyDelete@kt1000
ReplyDeleteFrom what I've ND's campus isnt that nice and South Bend is a dump
Would Saban really use all of his timeouts?
ReplyDeleteBLOCKED!! ALABAMA SURVIVES
ReplyDeleteALABAMA WINS!!!!
ReplyDeleteI TOLD YOU KIFFIN WAS STARTING TO CELEBRATE EARLY.
IT'S BLOCKED AND ALABAMA WINS!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, I think Verne Lundquist had a heart attack or something in the booth...
@jgreul 3:56 i've been to 4 games at Notre Dame Stadium...their campus is better than Maryland's, but that ain't saying much.
ReplyDelete@Jay, Kiffin gets what he deserves. I also saw him celebrating on the sideline before the kick.
ReplyDeleteYou know he was thinking to himself, "OMG, were going to beat Alabama. My mommy and daddy are going to be so proud."
in the meantime, BC just got picked...
ReplyDeleteBC intercepts Clausen!!
ReplyDeleteunbelievable...that is probably going to be overturned
Or not.
ReplyDeletewell, BC is going to have a chance
ReplyDeleteAfter this game, I'm going to watch a little bit of the Sharks game.
ReplyDeleteseriously, NBC??? Wazzou v Notre Dame in primetime??? was Bloomsburg not available???
ReplyDelete/sorry JFein
"Lindsay Soto told us they got the double stack working" - analyst at Utah / AF after Utah scores TD
ReplyDelete4th down and the game coming
ReplyDeleteIT'S CAUGHT!!! AND BOSTON COLLEGE PICKS UP THE 1ST DOWN!!!
ReplyDeleteCAUGHT!! GANNELL!! 30 yards on 4th and 17
ReplyDeleteFLAG!! PI ON THE IRISH!!!
ReplyDeleteNow pass interference on Notre Dame.
ReplyDeleteChuck might eat the whole cow after this game.
BC calls their last timeout
ReplyDelete1:45 to go
And Chuck uses his voodoo doll in the nick of time.
ReplyDeleteomg!! what a terrible throw by Shinskie...
ReplyDelete/well that puts the cap on a terrible afternoon of football
Sharks actually score first! 1-0 Sharks
ReplyDeleteOvertime in Miami.
ReplyDeleteUtah beats AF 23-16, Clemson and the U going to OT
ReplyDeletei guess Dave Lamont has no idea how college OT works
ReplyDeletehe also has no idea of a PGA playoff either
CLEMSON WINS!!
ReplyDeleteMLB Network is showing Blue Jays-Phillies 93 World Series highlights.
ReplyDeleteSean McDonough called Joe Morgan's home run.
@Keith
ReplyDeleteyou mean Joe Carter
none of these night games do anything for me, so goodnight all!
Yeah, Joe Carter. I either need a nap or a drink.......
ReplyDeleteWTF ?
ReplyDeleteErin Andrews is wearing a heavier coat in Mississippi than Lindsay Soto was in Utah.
And the miserable sports day continues, Caps losing to Isles, after the Twerps losing to Puke.
2-0 Sharks as TCU and BYU kick off. That's the game that I will be watching for the rest of the night.
ReplyDeleteTouchdown TCU
ReplyDelete7-0 TCU in the 1st quarter
Touchdown TCU, 14-0 TCU
ReplyDeleteI hate to say this, but TCU is better than Boise State.
3-0 Sharks in the 2nd period.
ReplyDeleteCapitals still down 1-0. Theodore is in net, so might be better off w/ 6 skaters and empty net
ReplyDelete3-1 Sharks, but it should be 4-1. The refs took away a goal from Patty Marleau when he clearly scored.
ReplyDeleteNow it's 4-1 Sharks as Patty scored this time.
ReplyDeleteNow it's 21-0 TCU.
ReplyDeleteGood bye Mormons.
Florida struggles in the red zone, but sure can score from 20 yards out.
ReplyDeleteBYU has finally scored.
ReplyDelete21-7 TCU with a minute remaining in the half.
Heck of a gamble to go for it on 4th and goal. That was a Spurrier-esque call there.
ReplyDeleteCaps down 1-0 end of 2nd. This isnt early 80s, Isles are supposed to lose
4-2 Sharks after two periods.
ReplyDeleteWhen did Brian Griese start calling college football games?
ReplyDelete@ Jay: He started this year and has been doing some sporadic games. I have not heard a whole lot of him, but from what little I've heard and read about his performances in the booth, he's gotten good write-ups.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteTonight, I am officially a Mississippi State fan....
ReplyDeleteMississippi State has tied the game at 13.
ReplyDelete31-7 TCU
ReplyDeleteAgain I hate to say it, but I think TCU is better than BYU.
@JFein, the guy that was crying did beat a big Dutch guy like Mat.
ReplyDelete
