Re: Week 7 game thread
Colt McCoy looks average against Oklahoma. He better have a good 2nd half if he wants to be considered a front runner for the heisman.
NCAA needs to get rid of the possibility of reviewing every play. It really can kill the flow of the game, like this Ok-Tx game. And Go Purdue!
EDIT - Terrelle Pryor is awful.

Re: Week 7 game thread
Pete Carroll has such a huge advantage over Weis in coaching. Weis needs to go. I'm so sick of seeing coaches get signatures wins, but Weis can't do a damn thing. He has his recruits playing but they are still losing. It's time for him to go. I'm sick of watcing Nd get embarrassed.

Purdue is awesome, and I'm surprised USC-ND was as close as it was.
Watching GT/VT right now, and GT is absolutely neutralizing VT's defense. It's really incredible.

Re: Week 7 game thread
Heartbreaking. I HATE losing to these guys every goddamned year.
One thing I took from this game...Taylor Mays is the most overrated player in college. Golden Tate abused him all game. He's not fast enough to keep up with good wideouts in coverage, and he didn't even seem that strong. Even when Mays lined up for a good hit, Tate would take it and keep running. And Tate is a pretty skinny dude. Check out his second touchdown, where Mays charges into Tate to try and keep him out of the endzone and just bounces off of him. This guy is the best safety in the country?

Pryor made a bad choice in going to Ohio St.
Buckeye fans must be having a feeling of constipation watching their offense week in and week out.
lol

Basketball is driven by three principles:
1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

I'd have to say Harrison Smith is the best safety. Kidding. I can't believe ND doesn't have someone better then him. Zeke Motta can't be any worse.
And I agree with you about Mays. And his hit on Parris on that 4th down was complete BS. It was such a cheap shot.

Re: Week 7 game thread
my goodness, you ND fans are simply mindboggling. we are gettin ripped off the whole game! how so? we could play only 11, while ND had 12 men on the field all game long! the blatant cheating by the referees was unbearable to watch. if there were 3 more seconds on the clock, they probably wouldve gave 'em 3 more plays at the end of the game!!
guy was in bounds, taylor mays popped him, flag!!
ridiculous what they get away with at ND.

These were Pac-10 refs. The Pac-10 needs USC to get in the BCS to make money. They have every incentive to hurt ND, not help them. I'm not saying they did. Actually I thought the reffing, especially the replay judge, was pretty good for a college game.
I hate to pile on Weis, but his clock management at the end of the game was inexcusable. 15-20 seconds ran off after Parris was injured and he left with a timeout in his pocket. However, his play calling for most of the game was pretty good.

I didn't like Weis' play calling. The team wasn't playing all that well until Barkley threw that pick. Up until then, USC owned the game. Why did Weis abandon the Wildcat. It did well during the first TD and after that, I didn't see it. Also, why weren't there some plays design to throw down the middle? Washington threw down the middle during their win against SC.
There are a lot of things I really like about Weis. He seems to be a great recruiter. A lot of these recruits are coming to ND because of Weis. But he can't get the big win. The one win to put ND back on the map. And I just don't know if that will ever happen with him.
