General 2013 NCAA Football Season Thread

oregon will absolutely annihilate texas and it will glorious. part of me kinda wants texas to win if only cause it'll mean another season of mack and mediocre football at UT

i might try and get tickets to the cotton bowl, we shall see. gundy's typically coached well vs mizzou

seeing the talk earlier about the baylor/ucf game, perhaps im a little crazy, but i think id take ucf to cover the spread in the game. baylor struggles away from waco and they've been extremely slow to start out offensively too ever since the OU game

Army/Navy game kicks off in a little over an hour. I don't care how bad one or both teams may be in any given season, I sit and watch this with my pops every year.

My grandpop was in the Navy for around 20 years and my cousin is in it right now, so Go Navy, Beat Army.

It's snowing too!

Famous Jameis it is!

Winston won the award by the fifth largest margin ever, for whatever that is worth.

Geez, I remember when the Heisman award ceremony was a must watch event. The award still has it's prominence, but it is no longer something that makes a player a household name to the masses anymore.

First batch of bowl games start tomorrow:

New Mexico Bowl: Colorado St. vs. Washington St.
Las Vegas Bowl: Fresno St. vs. USC
Idaho Potato Bowl: SDSU vs. Buffalo
New Orleans Bowl: Louisiana-Lafayette vs. Tulane

usc, colorado st, sdsu and louisiana-lafayette are all winners


colorado st - washington st looks like it was a crazy game

[craig01]

I stopped watching the WSU game when it was 45-30 with a few minutes left.

That finish started my bowl picks out on the wrong foot.

It was nice to see such a large crowd for that bowl game.

The Tulane QB looked very talented, but Tulane also received a huge scare with a players possible head/neck injury that turned out to be ok.

Good game.

its probably terrible to say this but if the big ten isn't playing in these early bowl games i just don't care (and even then i won't watch unless its iowa)

what if next year since they have a big change going to the playoffs anyway, they cut out a handful of bowls and make the eligibility 7 wins instead of 6. just usher in a whole new era all at once

[El Turco]

there are about 10 people watching the sheraton bowl on the stands, great idea to have a bowl on christmas eve 3000 miles away from teams' campuses

[craig01]

That bowl game sucks for everyone except for the participating schools and the fan base that makes the journey.

On Tv, the game lacks spirit because there is only about 35 people in attendance.

minnesota

should have known the gophers would blow it, not a great start for the big ten

[Mamba Mentality]

The Louisville/Miami game is a lot more one sided than I expected. I don't remember watching the Cards defense fly to the ball like this all season.

[Da Schwab]

Teddy is really making the most of his last game. Bill O'Brien must be licking his lips now that he's taking the reigns in Houston.

[craig01]

Miami was embarrassed

[El Turco]

texas is terrible against dual threat qbs, this is going to be an ugly game.

they're just terrible in general

[Da Schwab]

Bye, Mack.

[Mamba Mentality]

So much for the high scoring affair everyone was expecting. That game was brutal to watch.
