2013 NCAA Football Thread

Also, Russell Wilson was drafted literally two years ago. I don't think the eras have changed that much.

 

[ummmm........]

Hail State . . .

EDIT: Poor Arkansas . . .

 

[ummmm........]

Three punches thrown, three ejections. At least they're consistent . . .

Nothing really going as planned for anyone here in the early games . . .

 

[emzie]

Serious props to Michigan for going for two. Right call. I was ready to tip my hat to Hoke if he won this on the two. Amazing game.

Amazing game.

 

[GamezRule]

Well nobody's surprised that Ohio State won, but nobody was expecting The Game to end like that.

Edit: Normally I wouldn't say this, but a lot of Michigan fans are really stupid. They seem to forget that Michigan went into this game unranked and 7-4. Obviously Michigan lost a game that could have been won, but Michigan fans seemed to forget halfway through the game that they weren't competing for a spot in the national championship game.

[03:23.26] <NK> though they should
[03:23.27] <azale> they might
[03:23.31] <azale> wilde is not a kicker
[03:23.35] <azale> and they arent winning in overtime

[03:24.17] <NK> it'll be a pick two
[03:24.18] <NK> on the last play

Called it.

 

[Azale]

Wrong about the 2-pt conversion call though

 

[GamezRule]

Goodbye Alabama. That was crazy.

 

[Azale]

 

[emzie]

And I thought the Game was an instant classic...

I dunno guys! Florida State scares me more than Alabama did. Assuming we beat MSU and the winner of Missouri-Auburn doesn't pass us.

 

[Dachs]

AJ McCarron will graduate with exactly as many SEC titles as Jordan Jefferson

sounds about right

 

[GamezRule]

Well, the National Championship gets a little more unpredictable now that Alabama was beaten, but I think it's more likely Ohio State drops to 4 than rises to 2. My expectations for the new rankings:

1. Florida State
2. Auburn
3. Ohio State
4. Alabama

That said, the results of Missouri, Clemson, and OK State aren't in yet so who knows. I doubt OK State could jump to 3, but if either Mizzou or Clemson get a dominating win they might jump Alabama and/or Ohio State to 3/4.

 

[Dachs]

meanwhile, in a broom closet in Athens, Aaron Murray stares at the UGA injury list with tears in his eyes and bellows WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

 

[downtown]

There is no way Auburn is passing Ohio State in the rankings. MAAAAYBE with the AP Poll, which is full of morons who don't matter, but not the coaches or the computers.

Let's beat MSU first, kay?

Why? The rankings come out tomorrow night

Auburn MIGHT pass OSU after beating a 1-loss Mizzou in the SEC Championship, but not this week. If their matchup is a 2-loss South Carolina, it would be even tougher.


I'm gonna miss Manziel Sumlin for 6 more years, let's see if he's got anymore of these wunderkinds up his sleeve.

 

[madviking]

alabama-auburn was probably the best game i've ever seen

 

[ummmm........]

alabama-auburn was probably the best game i've ever seen

Well that's just sad, because that was some pretty crap football. It was exciting though . . .

OTOH, that's what happens when you go up against THE TEAM OF DESTINY

I've been calling it for two weeks but no one would listen

 

[Azale]

It was crap kicking. Other than that, Alabama played their usual game and just got beat.
