Stanford should of beat Oregon earlier this year. They were about to go up 3 touchdowns on them and a phantom PI call cost them that drive. Take nothing away from Oregon, but Stanford could take them if say a playoff had them matched up again. Too bad Newton vs. Luck didn't take place, maybe next year in the league.

Isn't anybody cheering for their favorite team at an event attempting to rig or "influence" the game in some way? Way I see it, cheering or wearing a jersey or bribing a referee is just showing your dedication to the sport and a display of team loyalty.

01-04-2011, 06:49 PM
PI's are one foul that have a big impact on the game and aren't reviewed. Charges or lack thereof also can have a big impact at certain part of the game, and those bad calls are seen way too often in the NBA. As far as replays go, the way Pittsburgh beat Miami earlier this year was a pretty egregious mistake on the part of the officials IMO.

But yea alright, we can just chalk all that up as "referees are human too!"

Arkansas is beating themselves down. Our receivers can't catch a cold and our DC is a moron. I was afraid our defense would stink the place up, and my worst fears are playing out. But I'm not impressed with OSU at all. They're not outplaying us physically by any means. We just aren't executing on offense and our defensive scheme is terrible.

They did nothing different in the second half offensively. Arkansas just adjusted to it and shored up all the huge gaps in their scheme that OSU took advantage of early.

Other than Cameron Heyward, who is a beast, Arkansas was clearly the better team top to bottom. They got OSU's best shot, played absolutely terrible, and still should have won despite it.

So you're telling me that they played well in the first half? C'mon. I don't think there should be any debate what their potential is when you compare the first half to the second.

Arkansas was damn close to being a great team this year. If they don't choke away the Bama game in the 4th quarter, then the referees don't favor Auburn so heavily a couple weeks later because both teams would have been undefeated and Arkansas probably wins. They played their worst game of the year last night and still were a single play away from winning a BCS bowl. They're for real. Petrino's staying a long time, and we aren't losing a whole lot (losing Mallett very well be good for us given his erraticness in big games).

Congrats, Auburn.

Apparently Michigan is interviewing Les Miles for their HC job. Why Miles would take it is beyond me, seeing as he didn't want it three years ago when the job was more appealing...so why would he want the job now that Michigan's football program is a massive reclamation project?

I was one of the few that didn't want Michigan to fire RichRod. Yeah, he didn't exactly endear himself to the U of M faithful these past three years with his antics both on and off the field, but I believe that you need to give a college football HC at least four years. I'm not a fan of the 3-3-5, but the plain fact is Michigan's defense was young and inexperienced; so of course they were gonna play like crap. And by firing RichRod, Michigan has pretty much kicked the one good thing about their offense to the curb (Denard Robinson). Michigan would have had a better squad next year now that RichRod's recruits had a season or two to play and develop in his system. Now Michigan's going to have to blow everything up and start all over again.

The silver lining is, if the Wolverines do hire Miles, I think Robinson could play in his system, though I think Devin Gardner would be a better fit.

they weren't that bad they just had modernization problems, there's no reason he couldn't have kept Mallet. I think that's probably one of the reasons that they're so mad, is how good he turned out.

The notorious Michigan clock operators will have fits with Miles. I think UM fired RichRod knowing violations were coming soon and they didn't want to deal with that anymore.

But that's the type of coach that Hoke is. He's a smashmouth coach.

If Hoke is hired, I expect the defense of Michigan to improve significantly, but what they'll gain on defense they'll lose and them some on offense.

I've been talking about this with a friend of mine on Facebook (he's an ND fan), and he thinks that getting rid of RichRod was the right move. I said that getting rid of RichRod was the right move if someone better could have been hired. For example, Notre Dame getting rid of Charlie Weis was a good move because Brian Kelly was available and interested in the job. In contrast, Michigan getting rid of RichRod would have been the right move if someone like a Harbaugh or Miles would have been available and was interested in the job. But that wasn't the case. Brady Hoke is not an upgrade over RichRod. At all. All they've done is shot themselves in the foot in regards to the one good thing the team had going for it.

Enjoyable game - fun to watch. I think no one expected a defensive battle like that. Incredibly fast defenses and offenses both of which underperformed. If you're going to lose a game, I have to say it was a decent way to lose - come back to tie it up, then score two, but lose it on a field goal with no time remaining. Auburn had just *that* much more desire I think - and it is summed up in that running play where their back refused to go down and set up the winning FG. Some folks are complaining that he wasn't down (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=VqkAEWVNj6I), but I think it would have been tough to make that call and there would have been a lot of (justifiable) outrage.

I never expected to play for the natty, and I am plenty happy with the effort - although winning would have been preferable. The team with the ball last won.

In both (obscenely early) pre-season rankings I've seen, ND has been in the top 15. They got two commitments from monster DE's over the weekend. Two capable QB's will be fighting for the starting spot. Floyd is coming back. Wood kept getting better as the season went on. Eifert should replace Rudolph without a noticeable drop off. Teo is gonna be an even bigger monster. I think there will be some questions with DB's. But other than that..... things do look pretty damn good. The schedule has 9 teams who went to bowl games this year. But Michigan and MSU should be W's next year. USC will still probably be down. Stanford won't be as good. Navy is.... Navy. BK has a year to figure that shit out now.

Confidence level = high.

Willingham (for the first couple years anyway) and Weis could recruit. BK has shown (except for Tulsa and Navy) that he can recruit and coach a game.

i'm not really going to let someone with admitted ignorance with regard to anything college football related alter my feelings about next year.

10-3.

and you'll get to a BCS game and lose by 40.

I don't even think Lou Holtz is going to say crap like this.

My team just lost the natty by a field goal, returns a third place heisman candidate, an all-conference QB and has a fantastic set of recruits coming in and I am predicting 10-3.

Oregon should be a pretty dominating preseason No. 1 next year.
