Oct. 6 thread 

Post#1 » by Icness » Fri Oct 5, 2012 9:10 pm

Some huge games this weekend:
West Virginia/Texas
Florida/LSU
Georgia/South Carolina
Nebraska/Ohio State
Oklahoma/Texas Tech
N. Illinois/Ball State
Washington/Oregon

Great Saturday to watch games...and I'm doing a beach dash (warrior dash on a beach) for the late half of the afternoon so I"ll miss watching from like 2PM-8PM CDT. Oh well.
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

One of these games is not like the others.

Don't forget Miami vs ND.

Looks like Florida is about to hand LSU their first loss of the season. I'm really surprised Florida has had so much success running the ball today.

Really been looking forward to the SC-Georgia game. Lattimore is going to go off today!

I can't stand the Gators, but they played extremely well today. They might have the most underrated defense in the nation.

No matter the result of the UGA/South Carolina game tonight, FL/GA looks to be a helluva game. Hopefully I'll actually be able to see it this year.

Well that missed int ended up biting Georgia on the opening drive. 5 plays, 76 yards in a little over two minutes lol.

Lol SC is clicking on all three phases of the game. Just another overhyped game. :(

Georgia, Miami got their rear ends kicked.

Missouri just lost at home to Vanderbilt....what was that about "old-man" football?

It may be a very long year for Mizzou....

FSU couldn't find first downs late against NC ST. I think Jimbo got too conservative in the 4th, where a couple of first downs would have put the game away. Oh well, maybe "next year" for FSU fans....

I'm happy Mizzou is getting the introduction to the SEC they deserve. It's not as much the "old man football" thing that bothered me, it's the fact that they absolutely don't belong in that conference.

They should've just gone to the Big Ten and consolidated the Midwest.

Also, great game by the Badgers all around yesterday. I can kinda lay off panic mode now. Not sure why I jumped to it so quickly.

Hardly a great all around game by the Badgers. They were terrible for at least half the game.

But that is an improvement from earlier this year
