College football: Rivalry week discussion (spoilers possible)

Craptacular · 11-16-2006, 07:01 PM

Well, Pitt is off and running in their effort to start another BCS shakeup week ... 81-yd TD drive to open things up.

Craptacular · 11-16-2006, 07:11 PM

This is gonna be a fun game. WVU marched down the field to tie it at 7, and Pitt just ran the kickoff back to WVU's 34.

ISiddiqui · 11-16-2006, 09:14 PM

Pat White is a BEAST. That is all.

Swaggs · 11-16-2006, 09:31 PM

I love watching Dave Wanstedt's "I just pooped my pants" look after every touchdown.

digamma · 11-17-2006, 04:52 PM

Yuck Fale.

Jaguars · 11-17-2006, 04:58 PM

Go Gators! (rivalry week is next week for us.)

RIP Bo.

Wolfpack · 11-17-2006, 05:23 PM

Go to Hell, Carolina! Go State!

(such as it is this year *sigh*)

Greyroofoo · 11-17-2006, 05:50 PM

I would give almost anything to be in Toledo for the Michigan/Ohio State game.

Alas, I'm cursed and I have to be in Alabama where people actually think the Alabama/Auburn game is important.

k0ruptr · 11-18-2006, 01:26 AM

Hawaii has a big game as well. not a rivalry game tho.

8-2 Warriors vs the 6-3 San Jose St. Spartans.

Jaguars · 11-18-2006, 11:13 AM

Alabama is the only place the game matters this year. That being said I'd love to see it live.

JonInMiddleGA · 11-18-2006, 11:17 AM

Not sure whether this thread is going to be the one for all results/comments this week, but ... BC leads Maryland 14-0, courtesy of two fumble returns for TD's in the first five minutes of the game.

Craptacular · 11-18-2006, 11:17 AM

Three minutes in, and BC is already up on Maryland 14-0. The same guy has returned two fumbles for TDs.

edit: jinx!

Craptacular · 11-18-2006, 11:44 AM

Good thing the Badger - Buffalo game is not on TV other than ESPNU. In the first quarter, there was a lost fumble, a muffed pitch, an INT, a FG that hit the crossbar, a blocked FG, and the teams combined to go 0-5 on third down.

Greyroofoo · 11-18-2006, 11:45 AM

Penn State should stop turning the ball over.

Craptacular · 11-18-2006, 11:53 AM

The first successful 3rd (or 4th) down conversion of the game came when the QB fumbled the snap, picked it up, and ran ahead for the 1st. I feel sorry for the fans in Madison.

Craptacular · 11-18-2006, 12:08 PM

The Badgers sound like a high school team. They forced Buffalo to punt, then the damn returner doesn't tell his guys to get out the way on a short punt, it bounces off a Badgers foot, and is recovered by Buffalo. First play bomb down the middle to the 3.

JonInMiddleGA · 11-18-2006, 12:12 PM

Tennessee 6-0 over Vandy after one quarter.
Ainge 9-for-11 so far.

Craptacular · 11-18-2006, 12:13 PM

I think the entire stadium (teams included) are sleeping. Buffalo shanks a 25-yd FG, and the Badgers have to take a time out because their offense wasn't ready to play. OK, I'm done ranting. The Badgers have no right to complain about rankings if they play like this.

cartman · 11-18-2006, 12:30 PM

BC is puttin' a whuppin' on Maryland. 28-3 at halftime.

JonInMiddleGA · 11-18-2006, 12:38 PM

Tennessee leads Vandy 13-7 just under two minutes left in the first half.

JonInMiddleGA · 11-18-2006, 12:44 PM

GT vs Duke starts in true to form fashion:

1-10-GATECH20 (14:54) Reggie Ball was intercepted. John Talley returned the interception for 8 yards.

Thankfully, this is Duke. They missed a subsequent FG try.

edit to add: Next possession, all on the ground as Choice gets five carries for 80 yards & a TD. 7-0 GT with 9 mins left in Q1.

JonInMiddleGA · 11-18-2006, 12:55 PM

Vols lead Vandy 19-7 at the half.

Elsewhere, Florida is doing very bad things to Western Carolina early in Q3, it's 41-0 Gators. Leak is 9/12 for 100 yds & a TD, Tebow is 5/5 for 78 yds passing + 5 rushes for 33 yds & 2 TD's.

JonInMiddleGA · 11-18-2006, 01:49 PM

Vols 29-7 over Vandy late in the 3rd qtr after Coker rips off an 88 yd run for a TD.

GT is 21-0 over Duke, TD passes from Ball to Johnson (Calvin) and Johnson (James).

And that Florida whipping continues, now 62-0 over W.Carolina. Tebow with career high 10/12 for 200 yds & 2 TD's (plus 2 more rushing TD's).

edit to add: Make it 28-0 GT, another Ball to C.Johnson TD following a Duke fumble inside their own 30.

MJ4H · 11-18-2006, 01:59 PM

80 yard interception return for a touchdown and Arkansas leads Mississippi State 7-0 late in the first quarter.

MJ4H · 11-18-2006, 02:03 PM

65 yard run up the gut answers back for MSU. Sigh. 7-6 pending PAT.

DaddyTorgo · 11-18-2006, 02:03 PM

BC is wayy up...38-16 (and the 16 is because they have had their backups in since midway through the 3rd so MD got a TD)

MJ4H · 11-18-2006, 02:05 PM

McFadden scores on the ensuing kickoff. Wow. This is crazy.

k0ruptr · 11-18-2006, 02:13 PM

Has anyteam Collapsed worse then the Iowa Hawkeyes this year? didn't they have like a #9 ranking or something? LOL

MylesKnight · 11-18-2006, 02:14 PM

Catching the end of the PSU/MSU game. Question on Penn State, where is their band? Music and Sound Effects?? The band is a piece of what makes the college environment... This sounds more like a NFL kind of place. Strange.

kingfc22 · 11-18-2006, 02:16 PM

Notre Dame looks BCS worthy

I hope Brady Quinn continues his suckiness, and Troy Smith has a horrible day.

mauchow · 11-18-2006, 02:24 PM

I doubt ND will lose(DUH) but I hope Army at least keeps it close so we can laugh at 'em.

mauchow · 11-18-2006, 02:26 PM

TD ND.

k0ruptr · 11-18-2006, 02:29 PM

Good Purdue won. they will be 8-4 now before they get destroyed by Hawaii next week.

mauchow · 11-18-2006, 02:32 PM

If Purdue for whatever reason wins that game, that will give Wisconsin a Top 25 win

k0ruptr · 11-18-2006, 02:34 PM

no chance. lol

MJ4H · 11-18-2006, 02:34 PM

MSU picks a pass off deep in Arkansas territory and puts it into the endzone. 14-14 now in the 2nd q.

Yup, makes me wonder how the season woulda turned out if not for that one NCState drive.. but another good win, if they can win against Miamimidweek they should be heading to a New Year's Day Bowl

Greyroofoo · 11-18-2006, 02:43 PM

mmmm, Ohio State wins the toss.....

kingfc22 · 11-18-2006, 02:45 PM

Let's Go Blue!

MJ4H · 11-18-2006, 02:47 PM

Arkansas scores on a 30+ yd TD pass with less than a minute to go in the half and its 21-14 late in the 2nd.

Greyroofoo · 11-18-2006, 02:48 PM

Go Michigan

mauchow · 11-18-2006, 02:48 PM

Good start for Michigan so far...

kingfc22 · 11-18-2006, 02:49 PM

Super Mario is toasting the secondary right now.

Greyroofoo · 11-18-2006, 02:50 PM

TD MICHIGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mauchow · 11-18-2006, 02:50 PM

That was quick. Touchdown Wolverines. Very nice passes and catches and runs all around. Time to go pick up my pizza, baby.

DeToxRox · 11-18-2006, 02:51 PM

Chad Henne was in the zone that drive. Let's see him keep it up.
