Really? There was not a moment of the game I wasn't thinking something like, THE may give this game away, but PSU cannot take it for themselves.

Maybe he means it in the same sense that I use to determine classic football games...   2005 Orange Bowl was a classic game!   2006 Rose Bowl was not. 

Other people seem very confused by those facts.  Not sure why.

Yale won 53-40 in overtime


I don't recall seeing an OT score like that before.   Did they return a turnover for a TD?

Entertaining game. I imagine Trojan throwing things at the screen every time Brian Griese says USC should keep Helton.

I am not one of the fans screaming for Helton to be removed.  Though I can certainly understand if they make that decision.   I would hope they feel they have a strong line on a really proven coach before they would pull the trigger on that at least.

I think if they replaced Clancy Pendergast and John Baxter this year, they would be in the 10-2 range with Helton and Harrell remaining in place.  I really used to like both those guys, but the past two years seem to indicate the game has passed them by.

I am sorry, but who came up with the bright idea of letting the Bruins play a game after this one?

who else...Larry Scott

I am nearly the last person on Earth to make excuses for Nick Saban.  But I can't fault him for playing Tua for one half of a football game.  He very clearly wanted to be in the game.  If this had happened in the fourth quarter, then sure, I would understand the second guessing.

I'm here for you, Steve.  We'll get through this together.

Psst...Is anyone near the Phoenix area in case this goes sideways and we need a full on intervention?

You see, we can't be beaten.

There is not a formula for success against us.


hmmm...

Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall...or something like that?

You deserve all accolades for the last few years...but don't start going all "Alabama Fan" on us...

Joe Burrow may  have put a lock on the Heisman in Tuscaloosa today.
His high school career culminated in the honor of being named Mr. Ohio as the top college recruit.
Apropos of our recruiting discussion this week can anyone name the last Mr. Ohio to win the Heisman?
No googling allowed.
Can I use Google to find someone that cares?

Okay, so does LSU hop over OSU in the next coaches poll?
Real question is whether the Committee jumps them.

Yes and Yes

...and God No.
No one with all their teeth  left wants two teams from the SEC in the playoff.

With the rainy season approaching, I'm going to need a replacement umbrage soon.
