I always root for UVA to lose, but UVA over Pitt would probably be the most #goacc thing right now, and I do love chaos...nope, can't do it. Gotta hope that someone else beats Pitt a couple times.
Otherwise, go Clemson?
Texas taking it to OU right now.
Baylor may drop 100 on Kansas.
Days like this with no Hokie football I'm glad to have ESPN goal line. See all the scoring plays and most of the "holy crap did you see that" plays of the weekend.
All the important football is behind us.
Boyd has not looked great this year for Pitt.
Yea if not looking good is leading the league in receptions while playing one less game than everyone else because of 1st game suspension. That game being against an fcs team that would allowed for padded stats. This all while being the focus of every d coordinator in every game ,being bracketed and doubled.
I didn't use the word "good" I said "great" I expected him to put up heisman type numbers this year. He has had some bad drops and had what two catches against VT? He is good and will no doubt play on Sunday's just was expecting even bigger things from him especially with their RB out.
solid recovery
Yea he did have a bad drop but he had like 5 catches 4 going for first downs on 3rd down. But yea with loss of Connor and working with 3rd QB and second or 3rd coach in as many years he's still a top 5 in country receiver. If he played out west somewhere he'd probably get about 1700yds. Pitt not big throwing team.
#GoACCnetwork
I've never been so insulted in my life
Look at it this way...
Even the network recognizes that we own UVA.
Why couldn't anOSU play like they have EVERY week since the VT game at Lane? Just awful.
OSU plays to the level of their opponent.
Man, we must be a pretty good team after all, then.
Baylor over Kansas, 52-7 with over 2:00 left in the first half. Anyone think Kansas asks for a running clock in the second half? Or if Baylor's scout team comes out?
How is MERRYLAND tied with anOSU in the third?
Will Baylor slow down at all against this outmatched Kansas?
This is insane...
As big as he is, WHY DID HE RUN AWAY FROM THAT COMPARATIVELY TINY SAFETY????
He wants a touchdown, not a murder charge.
Game day had a video of him trying to get into his pads it was like a St. Bernard trying to get in the cat door.
I hate Baylor, but that was awesome.
Kansas is why relegation should happen in college football
I hate that VT has a lose to them.
#TimSettle4WR
Because uva finally got a turnover today (their sole TD) , I believe their AD can justify CML has shown himself worthy of completing his contract
leave it the boo hoos to use an opportunity off a fumble to lead mattjohns safety
Was that the only time their offense made it to the endzone?
Charlie Strong gets a much-needed win
The most overrated 25 seconds of College football...
To what are you referring?
Gotta be the Clemson trot.
Its such a boring entrance. Also, remember how GT was supposed to be good this season?
Nick Chubb with a nasty-looking leg injury. Hate to see that.
A huge blow for UGA
#loluva
I wouldn't laugh.
UVa is bound to get an accidental win sometime in the ACC, and you don't want it to be against VT.
I'd like to have seen it against Pitt.
Can we please beat GT this year?
Safety . GT has imploded
GT punter tried his best AJ Hughes impression and he did not succeed
this Wake - BC game has something oddly familiar about it...
No...no it doesn't.
Cuse is losing to 1-3 USF, #GoACC
I like that run by Georgia out of the I just now. I wonder if we are at the point in the season where we decide to do more man blocking vs zone...
Impressive 50-yd TD bomb thrown by GT's Thomas.
He's just showing off.
VA guys Coleman Thomas and Chance Hall playing OL for Tennessee. I knew Coleman played last year, didn't realize Hall was playing as a true freshman.
Michigan is on their way back to utter dominance.
Slow down a little bit here. Wins against 2-2 OSU(Oregon), 2-3 UNLV, 3-2 BYU and 2-4 Merryland and what's looking like a win over NW do not equal "dominance". Let's see how they do against PSU, MSU and anOSU.
They are on the cusp of their third straight shutout win. I don't care who you play, that is dominance.
Michigan just shutout #13 Northwestern, and they've got Harbaugh to recruit for them.
Lol, northwestern has been better than psu and msu, hell, they have played better than osu recently.
BC misses FG attempt late in the 3Q.
Navy and Notre Dame re tied at the half 21-21.
Wow, the Wake-BC game is the most exciting 3-0 game ever. BC goes down the field and looks like they are going to get a TD, fumble and Wake recovers. Wake then inexplicably runs when they could have kneed and BC gets the ball back right where they lost it.
And BC just let the clock run out after getting stuffed at the goal line. Wow.
Sounds like both the WF and BC coaching staffs are taking a page out of Mike London's book of clock management.
Why must kids have birthdays on Saturdays during football season that require me to stay!!!! My kids need less friends. Missing all the 330 games.
My eyes...
And like that everything was right in world again. #reversedthecurse
holy shit
Lmao oh man, that's great
GT got straight abused by Dabo and company. If we don't beat them I'm going to feel all kinds of sads. That's 3 conference losses for them. And they still have FSU, Miami and us to play.
The bar owner near UCF is going to go broke this year.
That sound you hear is Mark Richt losing his job.
So two coaches people want at VT ,Richt and Addazio are not doing so hot.
which is why I don't want either of them.
#TomHerman4HC
I second this.
He is on my top ten list of coaches I'm looking more about.
There may be more than a few openings...
Tenn punter just won the weekend for special teams players.
Every time I see Bret Bielema I get so pissed because I remember he married way out of his league.
We shall see how long that lasts after the HC money goes away.
UGAs WR is going to have nightmares about that drop
Has any team missed one player more than Oregon without Mariotea?
GT after Calvin Johnson went to NFL
9-5 to 7-6 for GT I don't know if Oregon will win 7 this year.
Miami's unis are proof that you shouldn't switch from Nike to Adidas
meh...I don't think they're that bad..certainly not great though
I'm glad we have Nike. I don't want to change.
Thoughts on that targeting call on FSU?
I wouldn't have called targeting...roughing the passer maybe but not targeting. He hit him in the shoulder. The track we're on, in 5 years we'll be playing 2 hand touch on QBs
My thoughts exactly. We've reached the point where a shoulder to the chest is targeting. Seems the "initiation of contact to the head or neck area" has simply become "tackling above the waist."
indeed
TCU players have in hot yoga pants.
Dalvin Cook is faaaaaaast
So much respect for what Bill Snyder has done at KState.
Spoke too soon.
It aint over 'til it's over.
miami realing about go down 3 scores
spoke too soon
FSU is averaging 12 yds per play.
KSU beating number 2 TCU 35 to 24
Are we allowed to call this season, 2007 #2: The Electric Boogaloo yet?
This has seriously been some of the most exciting action in a few years, if there are clear favorites I dont see them, that's what is best for the sport, not parity, but competitiveness.
If it means winning out gives us a shot at the BCS title, then go ahead.
Nah, we would need a few things like an App State/Michigan-like game and a continual curse of the #2.
So far, the only shuffling in the top four has mostly been due to how they win.
Wazzu's QB Luke Falk went 50-74 for 505 yds, 5 TD's and 0INT's.
Where did he come from and how close are we on human cloning?
Also Mike Leach may be the only coach in the country to even rival Harbaugh for "unhinged crazy" levels. The man keeps a viking axe by his bed because his guns are safely locked up and his ammo is in a different room because he also doesnt want any sort of accident to occur.
He also wrote an awesome book about the Indian Chief Geronimo and his eluding the US Army for years.
Is anyone else watching these late games? They are great.
Late games? I'm waiting for these 8 o'clock games to end as they have been to insane.
In a house with three kids under five 8 pm is late.
Cal is driving....
Should be a good finish
edit: A guy named Booby just won the game for Utah
Is Reggie "5th Down"Ball the QB coach for Rutgers now?
Don't look now, but Tennessee looked pretty good in that win vs Georgia.
UT is really young, but is on the verge of being really good.
So, michigan. Teams can turn around quickly in year 1 of a new coach.
Yes.
Possible? Of course. Certain? Of course not.
They're also Michigan.
Probably has more to do with "It's Harbaugh."
Yes, a coach is THAT important.
I went to my first Tennessee game yesterday with a friend. I was pretty tired considering I had gotten back to Bristol from the Tech game early that morning and then had to drive to Knoxville a few hours later. I wish Georgia could've pulled out the win, but it was an awesome experience nonetheless. It was pretty cool being in a stadium full of 100,000 people- people sure know how to tailgate and put on a party. But, I must say... Lane's still louder.
Yup. I've been to Neyland a couple of times also. It's always a really good experience and a fun time. Yet, Lane is still louder and even more fun.
Yeah, it's really hard to beat the traditions we have at Lane. Our stadium looks a lot more welcoming and nicer as well, but that may be my own bias. Like I said, great experience, but if I have to hear 'Rocky Top' or '"3rd" Down For What' one more time I really think I'm going to bleed from my ears.
