College Football!!!!

Starts tonite!!!!!!:hotjump:

Going to the Wisconsin vs. Bowling Green game on Saturday. Bowling Green is supposed to be pretty good this year, and Wisconsin really isn't. It should be an interesting game.

who's gonna replace Alvarez??

and I read that Tallahasee (sp) hotels are going to kick out hurricane refugees because of the big FLA St./Miami game.

WTF

 

[azal]

where's alex's "sports!!" pic?

 

[lizard]

haha

 

[FrostGiant]

Bret Bielema is going to replace Alvarez.

i'm visiting chicago this weekend and am totally going to the Northwestern home opener against Ohio (not Ohio State, just Ohio) with my two best men (from our wedding, not just doodz i think are keen).

80% chance of tailgating, with a slight possibility of chicanery and/or mayhemic subterfuge.

also:

GO U NU

 

[FrostGiant]

Wisconsin 56
Bowling Green 42

Our defense sucked but theirs was a little worse.

 

[chupe666]

NU won too. although i'm not sure they'll do as well against NIU, who gave Michigan a decent run for the money this past weekend.

Texas v. Ohio State this weekend.

bows head and prays fervently to deities that OSU will lose.

 

[FrostGiant]

That should be a good game. I almost want OSU to win though so the big ten can get a little respect.

And I'm going to the Temple v. Wisconsin game this weekend. That should be a blowout.

 

[chupe666]

yeah, it's totally customary for big ten people to root for any big ten team in non-conference games, but then once the intra-conference games begin, they all equally become each others' worst enemy. kind of like once the vegetative food is gone on the island and the castaways start hunting each other for sustenance.

 

[lizard]

faaa...you just reminded me of Bob Denver's death.

 

[chupe666]

oh man. castaway was a bad choice of words. i was more thinking the movie Alive, but that was in the snowy mountains and there was no vegetation.

 

[FrostGiant]

Wow Temple really sucks. I left at the end of the third quarter. Temple had a total of 7 yards of offense. They finished with 45 yards of offense. Wisconsin scored 51 by the half. Final score 65-0.

Texas v. Ohio State this weekend.

bows head and prays fervently to deities that OSU will lose.

I hope by "deities" you mean Young. 'Cause he made it happen.

(actually, he got kind of tired and Carpenter and Hawks were all over him)

 

[lizard]

well, the 'Horns kept giving up great field position, but their defense allowed only one touchdown. if just one of those field goals had been another touchdown, OSU would have won.

 

[chupe666]

man, the NU game was really good. they won 38-37 because the other team got a TD in the last 6 seconds and tried for the 2 extra points and missed it. so they currently share the best record in the big ten. but are Wisconsin or NU ranked? nope. even Michigan is ranked like 3 after losing to Notre Dame, who are only at 23. it's like they just have favorites and don't pay attention. i think there should be a computerized ranking system rather than votes.

 

[FrostGiant]

Big game tomorrow, Michigan @ Wisconsin at 5:00 pm cst. I think you should all watch that.

 

[chupe666]

NU V Penn St is on ESPN2 at 11am CST, but that's not as big of a game as the MI/WI one.
also: the way Michigan lost to Notre Dame, and then Notre Dame lost to Michigan State = why i love college football. anybody can top anybody, and it doesn't all have to be hashed out- you can bicker about it indefinitely with no real outcome.
