Could this Cincy QB be a sleeper? I haven't watched much of the game. What I did watch, he looked great.

Keep believing. Nothing wrong with that. Lots of 2-0 teams still have a chance...



Ok, in the future I will remember to include an IMO after every opinion I express on SportsHoopla to not rustle the jimmies.

I don't get my jimmies rustled, especially by you. I think you're a really good poster and most of the time are very levelheaded and don't jump to conclusions because you understand the fluid nature of college football. That's why this last week of you jumping to conclusions and making reverse-OD proclamations about the B1G is so surprising to me.

Incredible really.

The amount of shit you talk for a team that hasn't done much of anything on the national scale is fucking amazing.

So, if the Big 10 sucks so bad, then why is the mighty Pac 12 only 11-10 against them the past 5 years while also being 2-2 in the Rose Bowl?

Your incessant and constant berating of the Big 10 is confusing and comical at the same time. Why is it so important to you?

The PAC has a winning record against the B1G the past 4 decades in a row and are on the way to a fifth. It's great the two conferences have aligned for home n home games. Keep battling B1G.

I am sorry they bother you. Oregon hasnt done it for too long, but boy, have they ever done it since they "showed up". It is just lil ol Oregon.

I know the PAC has a big HtoH advantage in WL column over b1g.

But that doesn't even matter to me.

I just go off what the team I cheer for happened to do against b1g.

Over 10 seasons that is a 6-1 record.

We will find out in a couple years in Lincoln though. And likewise when bigred comes to Autzen .

Gordon is B1G's only hope and that is a long shot IMO.

Abdullah is amazing, but I don't see enough Nebraska hype to draw attn. fair or not that is the reality.



Call me crazy, but didn't Nebraska beat Georgia in a bowl game last year?

Wait, I thought we were talking about the 2014 Heisman.

Revisionalists history?

Incredible really.

The amount of shit you talk

And here I thought you would agree with me OC

Which is it? Just had a wild hair and got rustled? Why By the looks of these posts, we appear to be on the same page old friend.

What gives?

No fucking doubt about that.

Geebus, take your beatin' like a man. Everybody gets their tails kicked in every now and then (B1G much more than others the past decade), no time for excuses or lame ass scenarios. When you suck, you suck. Own up to it instead of being a whiney bitch.

Before the season started, I was with the belief that this year's playoff would consist of 2 SEC teams, Florida State, and the Pac 12 champ.

Nothing that has happened thus far has changed my preseason speculation.

Fantastic.

Nebraska had a near miracle comeback vs an FBS team and not an FCS team? I feel so much better now. Thanks Coda.

BYU 81 Texas 28

Why?

We aren't all that good.

You know, kind of like when you got beat by UL-Monroe in 2007 not all that king of good.

No, it is not just you. The Big 10 put on a single day display of pure fucking embarrassment that may never be matched again.

Lay down all the barbs. The Big 10 has no rebuttal.:suds:

I like Mariota and Gurley. Really don't think a running back has much of a chance, so for my money, Mariota is the front runner. He was the difference in beating a very good Michigan State team that came to play. Of course Michigan State failed to take advantage of their huge offensive line and continued to run wide against a very quick defense. Mariota has all the tools to be a great college quarterback, as did Manziel. I see Oregon running the table and will find themselves in the final 4. I also see Michigan State doing the same in the Big 10, however do to the woeful Big10 OCC play of late, they might not see their way to a 2nd chance and that's a shame because, IMO, better play calling and that game might have been different. At any rate, Oregon will play in the final 4 and Mariota is a big part of that success.

1) Mariota, QB, Oregon - because he should be there.
2) Taysom Hill, QB, BYU - take him off BYU and nobody is even talking about them.
3) Zach Sanchez, CB, Oklahoma - came into season hyped as one of nation's best, and already has 2 int's in 2 games.
4) Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor - over 700 yds and 7 tds, in 2 games, with no nit's.
5) Gurley, RB, Georgia - what the hell.

Doubting it. Toledo decided they weren't going to cover his WRs early in the game. They all decently easy throws.
