Just leaving this here in celebration.

/Tuesday games are weird

... those two programs can do something for all of us, knock Notre Dame and USC out of BCS contention.

Subby speaks the truth. Just for lulz, I'd also like to see overrated Georgia Tech beaten by Sucks.

Hook 'em.

Please Christ, pull your heads out of your asses.



/old school

let's go out and win the coastal today.

GO JACKETS
GO UTAH
GO SPURRIER
GO MISS STATE
GO BAYLOR

GO BADGERS!!!!

Which set of refs is gonna screw Georgia today?

Badgers...fark yeah...

Listening to the Badgers vs Wolverines game, watching Tenn vs Ole Miss.


TD BADGERS!!!!!

We win, we go to the Rose Bowl. Simple as that.


/Woody would be proud.
//1985
///22-13

.....wat

Time for Georgia Tech owning of Duke.

Later on, Georgia owning of Auburn

LETS GO PITT! LETS GO PITT!

Or as we use to chant when I went there:

SHOW YOUR TITTS! SHOW YOUR TITTS!

way to go yellow jackets

Vanakatherock: Time for Georgia Tech owning of Duke.

are we watching the same game? that was a really nice drive by duke and the jackets looked confused

Well Wisconsin is off to a good start. I hope you guys win today over Michigan. I was rather shocked that you couldn't beat the Wolverines last year as they went 3-9. If beated them, they would have gone 2-10 for the year.

TD Ole Miss.

GO GATORS!

And today: Go Ole Miss!


I only root for two teams every week. Florida and whoever is playing TN.

Anyone got a good stream of the WI/MI game?

Dammit badgers.

TD Michigan

Wisconsin don't blow this. This team is horrible.

Also, does anyone know if there will be a stream of the Utah/TCU game? It has no national coverage and it's not even be covered locally here in Ft. Worth (atleast not on my UVerse service).

ffish: Exploring the possibility of a 3-way tie in the Pac-10 this year (new window)

I believe you're misreading the Pac-10 rules. There is, officially, no such thing as a "tiebreaker". In the situation you list, all three teams would be co-champions, and both Arizona and Stanford would be considered tied for 4th. Thus against the AZ-STAN block, only USC would be 2-0 and they would go to the Rose Bowl. Which makes me sad.

However, I think the more likely scenario is Oregon losing to Arizona rather than OSU and the rest all happening the same. Then it would be AZ/OR/USC all with 2 losses. Oregon would still be eliminated for their loss to ORST, leaving USC over Arizona as the Rose Bowl rep.

Dammit.

Perfect. We rematch against USC in the Rose Bowl.

I'm getting this, by the way, from this clause in the Rose Bowl Selection rules:

When arriving at another group of tied teams while comparing records, each team's collective record against the tied teams as a group shall be used.

GOD......we're not supposed to suck against Duke. It's the other way around.

Did Georgia Tech intend to fake that punt?

Jesus WI...give MI better field position why don't ya.

this is truly the best the acc has to offer

What the fark just happened to Georgia Tech? Dammit ESPN, get back from commercial on time.

Oh, attempted fake punt is botched terribly.

DUKE leads 7-0 and takes over at the GATC-14 late in the first.

We gonna get raped. Ok, it may not actually be that bad, but I'm not too confident in our team to overcome a rabid and angry Autzen Stadium crowd. On the bright side of things, Osweiler is starting today, hopefully putting an end to "The Sullivan Experiment." However, getting your first career start in Eugene is not an ideal situation. Either way, I'm just hoping we keep it competitive today.

GO DEVILS!!!

WISCONSIN PUNTER: when you have 90+ yards of grass in front of you, it's okay to kick the ball harder.

10-0 Duke. We keep them to a field goal.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll update the blog at the end of the day after we see how today's games play out.

I'm really hoping to have a good week prediction-wise since the last two have been a bit down. I didn't even break 70% last week. I think I can 37 of the 50 games today. But we'll see. :)

THAT WILL WAKE US UP! We return the kickoff to the Duke 1!

Blocked FG for Badgers!!!

Fumbled kickoff and then he runs it back inside the 5? Wow.

Blocked. Great job, Wisconsin.

How is it possible to not have the Illinois/Northwestern game on a local channel in Chicago? Of course, it's not on any Big10 network channel either. I don't get ESPNClassic. What the hell?
