2009 College Football Thread

4.  The radio guy asked them both who their picks were in the MLB Cancelled Playoff Exhibition Extravaganza.  Theriot responds, and I quote:  "I'm disappointed in my Cardinals."  A. J. said that would be in the Trib tomorrow.

Do the Cardinals have some sort of following down there?

I mean... First IAN, now Theriot.

Are Louisianans and St. Louisans joined together in some sort of cousin-lovin' redneck brotherhood?

Yes, they are.

Cousin-fuckin' only counts as cousin-fuckin' if you know it's your cousin.  Right?  Like Dave Attell said, if you have a super hot cousin, you should be allowed to fuck the one time.

Iowa's pretty good. Or not. But Tate Forcier's not. Or maybe he is. He looked a lot faster toward the end. Much tanner too.

Ok, shifting gears for a moment.  I know there are several august alums of the UI on the board here.  Mrs. G and I are heading down to Champaign on Thursday of this week for homecoming and then we'll be sticking around until Sunday morning.

If any of you meatheads were thinking of heading down, Illinois might actually have a chance against Michigan State.  And of course there will be cheap beer there too, so there's that.

So, go.

But if they're not thinking of heading down, then Illinois has no chance?

Yes.  That was my exact point.

Punk.

Yeah, turns out Illinois had no chance against MSU.

Best part? Eddie McGee has now been benched...for Juice.

Colder than fuck, let me tell you.  My Red Bull/Jager combo kept me warm for most of it, but as more people left, was able to sit in an area with lots of sun.  Warmed up well.

I want to believe that if Juice had been starting, we might have had a chance.  Then again, he could have tossed like 8 picks, so what do I know.

You should have just ignored the Illini game and went to the Hawks opener instead.

But I'll be there on Monday night!!!

HEY HAWKEYES!!!



You're God Damn welcome.

HEY HAWKEYES!!!



You're God Damn welcome.

That picture... Um... Purdue Pete needs to settle down a little bit. Either that or see a doctor, if it has been more than four hours.

[BigDrinky]

HEY HAWKEYES!!!



You're God Damn welcome.

We'll take the help as we try to fly under the radar as long as possible.  No way Iowa will run the table, but one loss might be good enough to with the Big Ten title.

In news from the only conference that counts:


Sooooo freakin' close...
The Hogs had their chances to put points on the board and they kept not doing it.  If you're gonna beat the #1 team in the nation, then, in those situations, you have to not not do it.  The defense played well, though.

That was a fun game.  I don't know how the gators pulled this one out but I'll take it.

It was probably more fun for you than me, but, yeah, it was a good one.

Purdue wins a pillow fight vs. the Illini. Yay? If the Boilers go to Wisconsin and win, then I'll start to get a quiver of excitement. At least they're showing improvement and they've stopped with the friggin' turnover party all day/all night to the early light, come on.

...as opposed to the Houston Dale Nutt Bowl today.  If the receivers could've held onto anything, then this might've been a decent game.  Also, if Arkansas had scored more points than Ole Miss, then Arkansas would have a win instead of a loss.

Thanks to EIGHT Nebraska turnovers Iowa State gets its first win in Lincoln since the Carter administration

[Slaky]

Even though Chuck G is a butthole I'm going to announce my full support for Iowa for the rest of the season. I hope they can run the table just to see how this whole thing works when Florida and Texas are also undefeated.

I want to see righteous indignation.

Atta boy. Terrell Pryor? Weebs sacked him like ninety hundred times in a 135-3 pounding of the Buckeyes. That means it should be a pretty good game. Pretty. Pretty. Pretty good.
