College football 12/2

Fans threw oranges on the field and the players were kicking it around like it was a soccer ball. Figures.

 

Could we have an all-cinderella Orange Bowl?

Nah, West Virginia couldn't possibly lose at home two weeks in a row. And certainly not to Rutgers, which sooner or later has to remember that it's Rutgers.

I'd love to see Rutgers in a BCS game, but I really don't like this matchup for them tonight. And I certainly don't like Teel on the road in a big game where he's likely going to have to make a bunch of big plays.

 

Nothing says academy football like the voices of Ian Eagle and Boomer.

 

I really wanted to see Army win, but other than that sweet double reverse to score, they haven't done a darn thing to move the football.

 

I will admit that Wake winning the ACC has a Bizarro World feel to it. I'm just not going to acknowledge that Wake won only because the Florida school flopped. For those who do feel like that, see Wake's mashing of the Seminoles in Tallahassee. That was anything but a lucky escape.

 

Same here. But at least it wasn't a blowout. At least they hung in there, which is more than what Army can say in some recent years.

 

For anyone who's been watching the game: Does UCLA have any chance of pulling this off? (I'm nowhere near a TV and just saw the score.)

 

Other than Army-Navy and USC-UCLA, it's the biggest fraud Saturday in college football -- manufactured "championship" games so the alleged power conferences can take a sponsor's dick up their ass.

That's why I'm watching college basketball today.

Oh, and you suck, Big 12, SEC and ACC. You suck.

 

Is Karl Dorrell trying to be the next Mike Shula of playcalling? Punch the fucking ball into the endzone.

Anyhoo, UCLA 13 USC 10 9 in the 4th. This could be the best news all day for me. I was listening to it on radio while getting my brake lights replaced and I thought that USC was just toying with UCLA in the first half, and then promptly blow their asses out in the second half. It looks like USC isn't even trying to win this game.

It's fixed Oz.

 

UCLA is settling for too many field goals.

 

Actually, 13-9 Bruins, who really could have taken control on that last drive. I have a feeling that might cost them in the end.
