Whelp--week 1 is upon us. And already Alabama has Michigan scheduled. Granted, it's at home (Tuscaloosa)--but still--they are preparing themselves for another National Championship run.

Can they make it 3 in a row????

Meanwhile teams like Ohio State have Miami of F*cking Ohio Chumps as their starting game. This doesn't prepare you for sh*t. And in big games like Michigan and Wisconsin--it's choke time.

But I already like Urban's war chant "YOU GOT SOME 'JUICE'"?!??!?? Of course, this could backfire if his players are going all Barroid Bonds on you. Catch my drift??? LOL

BTW--Michigan scares me bad. I'm peeing down my leg thinking about playing them. Seriously.

Also BTW--USC DON'T F*CKING HURT YOURSELVES ON HAWAII. I SWEAR IF THE F*CKING RAINBOWS PULL OFF THE UPSET (THEY WON'T--I'M THINKING BARKLEY MAY SET THE NCAA FOR PASSING TDS IN A SINGLE GAME)--I'M GOING TO SH*T MY PANTS. Teams perform differently when:

1. They are being overlooked/underestimated

2. This is Hawaii's National Championship

3. The Upset Warning Alarms are chiming

Some of these 1st games are just downright embarrassing. LSU playing North Texas? Arkansas playing Jacksonville State? Florida State playing Murray State (who?) to name just a few. I know there's no preseason in CFB but still. Jesus. You guys make sure a gurney isn't awaiting you after the game either. If you break a sweat, you guys are sponsored by Gatorade--so that will help....


It's just chatter--you boys can chime in. Warning--NO POLITICS BY EITHER SIDE--OR I WILL EMBARRASS YOU (of course I've set myself up here for the Mitt B*tchney or Osh*tba comments).

I seriously don't like Michigan.
VTech is another school I want to fail week in and week out.



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Michigan is playing Bama at Jerry world.... I am in Dallas right now. its a 50/50 split of tickets.

scUM does not scare me one bit. We almost beat them with that lame azz team we fielded last year.... We have no bowl game....trust me ,.that is our bowl game and Urban will NOT lose to Michigan. I would not want to be a player if they do.

 

Falc, Bama does not have a home game this weekend.

"Insert witty quotation here"

Bama playing Meatchicken is like OSU playing Miami.

OSU's bowl game is mid November and there is nothing the NCAA can do about it.

Yep....Alabama plays MeatChicken in Texas. Gee, I wonder how much Jer-Jer paid for that one.

Sure Alabama may play in Dallas--but basically that is a home game for 'Bama, since it's in the South/closer to Tuscaloosa....

I stand corrected.

Another post that probably should have went in the worst jokes thread--but I'm laughing my azz off about it.

Nice.

Im thinking USC and Bama in the BCS Championship Game.

Anyone else?

Falc, you got a prediction, ol Nostradamus?

"Insert witty quotation here"

Isn't Kiffin the big loud mouthed idiot still the coach?

I still like them though--only because they have some real experience--especially on offense. Hard to go against Matt Barkley. He could have came out last year. Barkley's very, very underrated.

However, I think they stumble. Maybe twice. I don't know why. Coaching? Who knows.

I like Alabama--especially along the lines (you know--the important stuff that Mike Brown forgets as an owner). They are huge--and it's going to matter in big games.

I know one thing--it will NOT be an LSU Alabama repeat. There are too many things against that repeat. The Universe doesn't align like that very often.

*shrug*--but unfortanately for the rest of the country--I do believe that it could be 2 SEC Teams again. The Conference is just that good.

One more thing--there are other coaches elsewhere in the country. Not every good coach is in the SEC anymore. Sure they can recruit like a MF'er....but Kelly's a damned good coach. We already know what Meyer can do...I like what I see from that dumba$$ in Michigan unfortunately. Wisconsin and Nebraska have good coaches.

Stoops is a decent coach even though he catches a bad case of "John Cooperitis" in big games.

And Texas has a decent coach.

Can Charlie Weiss build a program at Kansas--or is he an overblown fatazz that had it good and never should have left Belicheck.

I'm rambling--and avoiding the question on purpose, Bronco. LOL


I'll answer--I like your picks. But picking #1 vs. #2 as a National Championship is just too easy. Oklahoma has an easy road so does USC.

I'm going to pick USC vs. Oklahoma to begin with--just for the hell of it.

Murf selects the Domers and the Bearcats.

"Insert witty quotation here"

Nope, USC always seems to weasel out of playing a good SEC team and instead plays some lame Big Ten school in their own back yard no less.

"3. The Upset Warning Alarms are chiming"


Good lord. Upset Alarms are going off in the SEC already. South Carolina is getting beat by Vandy.....

har har har.

And it's our buddy Spurrier too. I love it.

By Vandy's Run Defense for 3.5 QTRs. Lattimer is a Heisman Candidate (if he stays healthy). If Vandy had a decent offense--they could beat some people. they still will. I'm predicting a Bowl Birth--for the Commodes. LOL

I'm thinking somewhere in Tennessee--roughly NASHVILLE.

That guy is a beast. He scares the pee outta me. September 29th could be the longest day Ohio State Fans have seen in a long time.

The last time I saw a guy leap over a guy like that--I was about 8 years old. This f*cking crazy f*cker in high school football. Played for Northridge. RB named Howard. I will never forget it. Just amazing stuff. Hopefully they were sweating if they weren't wearing cups.

BTW--Michigan is in big trouble tomorrow. They suspended their RB for tomorrow's game. I'll bet they'll wonder where their running game went. I'll say Alabama by 20.

Also, false alarm. Nothing to see here. Go about your business. There will be one upset tomorrow though. I'm thinking the Auburn Game is the most promising.

Nice win for the Irish, but they are in big trouble against a real team with that qb!

Speaking of over hyped qb's
Miller needs to learn how to throw the football.

Florida is pulling away as I type and that sucks.

Penn State went down like Sandusky on a little boy....(too soon?)

http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Falc, google Beanie Wells and hurdle.

He did it a few years back.

MSU and OSU will be another 10-7 game.
We cant run on them and they wont run on us.

"Insert witty quotation here"

"Falc, google Beanie Wells and hurdle."


But I didn't SEE it. I'll google it later. Sure it was good--plus Beanie's a f*cking stud.

For right now though--Michigan's getting their azzes handed to them 24-0. I love it and hate it at the same time. Why?

Love it: Self-explanatory. Come here--it's Michigan.

Hate it: I can't wait for the talking heads discussing the Big 10 and how slow they are vs. the SEC AGAIN. That sh*t just sucks big fat porn dicks. Seriously.

What I get sick of is the "SEC, SEC, SEC" chant. Just because the SEC has won the NCG since the Stone Age gives them no right to be a bunch of arrogant pr!cks, but then, who's gonna stop them?

I think Tressel was on the right track. He eventually gave OSU the first win against an SEC team in 9 tries. Of course, technically with the scandal OSU is still winless against the SEC. Maybe that is what got Tressel fired. He just came to close to beating an SEC team in the NCG and the powers that be, who are all SEC fans, gave him the boot.

Michigan was simply over matched by a far better football team.
I loved every minute of it and that game just erased the ridiculous talk of Robinson being in the Heisman race.



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Tressel ball is finally OVER. although the score indicated otherwise in the 1st qtr. Love the step on the neck mentaility Meyer displayed and I hope he continues. Do not let up for 60 min.

ND looked really good as well. UF ...yikes.

scUM - we all knew that train wreck was coming... this game will hurt them more than just rankings...it will hurt recruiting for the and the reast of the BIG...maybe not so much for tOSU because we Urban and he will looked upon as SEC like..

Oregon unis were cool last night.

I will tell you one thing - We just got cable and it did not come with BIG network so I went out in search of Buckeye Bar - found one in Redondo Beach called "the Rocks" beautiful view of the ocean while watching the game along with 30 or so other Bucks....pretty cool. Even the bar staff was wearing Bucks gear. Spent $60 on food and beer....so I doubt that will become ritual...just for non televised games. Bronco - you may be familiar with the place.

There are over 8 OSU LA bars here....pretty amazing.

I had several people tell me they hated Notre Dame yesterday because they kept scoring.
See what Marvin Ball has done to this city, now people are getting angry when football teams score...
LOL!

I loved it...
Play balls to the wall for 60 minutes!

"Offender of the weak (week)". When a top 25 or elite conference team plays a team like ohhhhhh I dunno--OKLAHOMA STATE WHIPS THE SH*T OUT OF SAVANNAH STATE--simply because Savie State needed a payout.

Then you're going to get called out.

The Punkboys from Okie State are my Offender of the Weak.


Who should have been my Offender of the Weak? Pittsburgh. But they got their azzes handed to them by Tress' ole program--the Penguins of Youngstown State. So, I guess you can't be an Offender when you f*cking get killed. Dave Wanndstat--where the f*ck are you?!?!?!?!?!?

Just catching up on this thread's comments, and chuckled at Falc's torment about Big 10 interpretations from Michigan being totally humiliated. It's obviously more MAC-like or Notre Dame-like than a Top Tier program, yet again.

I noticed that Wisconsin and Michigan State didn't exactly dominate at home against supposedly lesser opponents. I grew up a Big 10 defender, but opening week suggests that, once again, the SEC is in a different and far superior class.

Except for the Tressel win over Arkansas that was ironically taken back because of the scandel, OSU has never beaten an SEC team in its history.

This goes back to ancient history.

I had several people tell me they hated Notre Dame yesterday because they kept scoring.
See what Marvin Ball has done to this city, now people are getting angry when football teams score...
LOL!

The difference is that Notre Dame is much better than Navy. The Bengals may not be better than any other NFL team, and if they are it is just a handful of them.

theydey - OSU is 7-11-2 against the SEC... unfortunately they just cant beat them in bowl games. 0-9. That will change will UFM in charge.

T

Thanks for looking that up. I figured that they HAD to have a win against someone down there!

But the bowl record says it all anyways. BCS bowls and Capital One (former Citrus Bowls) and the Outback Bowl tie ins have pitted quite a few Big Ten/SEC games over the years.

Also a good weekend to be from Ohio. As awful as our two NFL franchises are, OU over Penn State and YSU over Pitt. LOL at both!

In all honesty Penn State is probably on par with OU this season. OU is a good MAC team and PSU will be lower middle of the pack Big Ten. Pitt losing to YSU is a embarrassment for them. Especially as they are heading to the ACC next year.

The entire SEC is not great.

3 teams might be elite at this moment in time.
I will never understand the obsession with a Conference.
A match up between the best team in football vs a second tier team is just that.
2 teams that play each other and the team that has better match ups, and executes...wins.
It has nothing to do with what league they are in or what part of the country they are in.
Great Athletes and Excellent coaching...not league and geography.





http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

I agree with the SEC depth being overrated. That league has some AWESOME teams at the top, especially in the West, that no one in the Big Ten would have any shot at beating in 2012. But just look at any of the Big SEC West schools (Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Arkansas). The only losable games for any of them is vs eachother and a big game or two ('Bama vs Michigan, which Bama won, and Auburn vs Clemson, which Clemson won). And considering that Auburn is probably a whole step lower than the other three, it probably goes "big three, then Auburn, then A&M. After that the only other quality school in the entire SEC is Georgia right now. Florida will be better than last year but is not a top team yet. Tennessee could be better. South Carolina IMO not a top 10 team and will lose a questionable game or two. Etc.

Credit to Alabama or LSU, whoever emerges, for winning their big head to head games. But the teams at the bottom of their schedules would be automatic wins for the top and middle teams in any of the BCS conferences and Notre Dame. Hell, if Notre Dame played 'Bama's schedule they would go 8-4. Not 11-1 or 12-0, but being relatively mediocre they would be a shoe-in for 8-4, while their current schedule has so many 'losable' games that they realistically could finish anywhere from 5-7 to 10-2.

Thanks for the correction T.

I think my point is still as valid, however.

Or is USC overrated??? Anyways--upset alerts are sounding off in this game.

Oh yeah--Offender of the Weak Award this weekend goes to the next chump playing Savannah State (man they really needed a payoff this year huh?)--Florida State. That sh*t just shouldn't be allowed.

I say we make a rule next year--anybody who plays Savie State gets dropped in the BCS Standings. You're auto-out. Nope. You barely get the "Continental Tire" Bowl.

My Honorable Mention for the 'Weak Award? Has to go to VIRGINIA GD TECH for playing Austin Peay. No wonder why Va Tech isn't prepared to play in big games.

Also--Bronco--you were right. Michigan doesn't scare me at all. I think it's remarkable how the sidelines respond to Urban Meyer's presence. It's like a "whatever you say I can do, coach" attitude. Just the opposite of what you saw in the previous 3-5 years.

Well the good news for you is that Notre Dame is going to be below average if Kelly keeps his starting qb the same.
The kid plays hard and I am trying to like him, but is far from being a good enough qb to win big games.

The Big 10 is sad fellas...

http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Top two teams look like Bama and LSU...AGAIN.

USC prob third.


the Big Ten blows this year.

Sparty is the best.

Huskers and Buckeyes are probably 2 and 3.

Then scUM, Illinois, Purdue...

Whisky SUCKS.
Penn State has POOR karma.

Awful year for Iowa, Minnie, Hoosiers.

Uhhhh.......

"Penn State has POOR karma."


If Prison State keeps it up they are on the verge of being my Offender of the Weak Victim. Whomever plays them are the Offender.

So, should I give another Special Mention to Virginia??!?!?!?!?!?!?

LMAO. I'm loving it.

And you know what? Penn State could have fixed this. They made the bed they are laying in. All they had to do was fire Paterno's azz when I told them or sooner.

They should have gave him the ULTIMATUM--either fire Sandusky--or fire yourself. A bunch of dumbazzes.

Today--I used my 'Damus vision. The NCAA isn't going to like this either. I foreseen a Happy Valley Stadium with about 80,000 missing in attendance. That will be a major catastrophe in the world of collegiate sports, folks.

SAD Valley is going to be a f*cking graveyard in about 3-5 years...and that's going to be the sadest thing since the NCAA gave SMU the Death Sentence.

Even more SAD?!?!??!?!? Penn State has exactly ONE RECRUIT that has committed. That is like UConn or Utah State-like. Not Penn State. Goes right along with my parity on the "Recruit Phonecalling". Who would commit? What does this say about a student athlete for football that would commit to Prison State right now?

Speaking of "Death Sentences"--I've always wondered ONE THING. How did the U (Miami) avoid the Death Penalty!??!?!?!?!?!?!? Back in Jimmy Johnson's Reign (or thereafter), they should have received it. Big time. Hookers, dope, thugs?!??!?!?!? OHHHHH MY!!!!! HOW?!?!?!?!?!? HOW THE HELL NOT?!??!??!?!? I know those cheaters were sanctioned--but they should have received the Death.

What sucks is we are looking at yet another year of a media Champion.

Bama simply is good.
LSU simply is good.
USC simply is good.

Then you have a bunch of teams that could (depending on luck) make some noise.
But if USC runs the table and the winner of the Bama LSU game runs the table, that is your national title and nobody has a chance of playing them or getting in.

Sad that a great sport is controlled by media clowns that don't play.

Tennessee Tech at No. 4 Oregon

Good lord. When are Quackers going to f*cking play somebody? Horrible.


Special Mention(s):
Furman at No. 11 Clemson -- This game deserves a "Come'on Man"
Massachusetts at No. 17 Michigan -- Wanna see how Meatchicken rises 2 points in the rankings?
Idaho at No. 3 LSU -- Here's your $500,000 for playing us, Vandals. Take your Benjamin Beatdowns and git!!!!!!

South Carolina State at No. 24 Arizona -- WEAK.

If you want a cupcake--DO NOT--I repeat--DO NOT Schedule University of Louisiana Monroe.

Arkansas found that out the hard way.

That should have been one of my Offender of the Weak's--but Monroe pulled off the upset. Anybody see this game? Especially the last 3 quarters?

ULM knocked out Wilson (Arkansas' Starting QB) and pandemonium ensued.

The game went into OT. Arkansas missed their FG. ULM took over. They scored in 3 plays. WTF?!?!?!??!

Talk about small programs showing up like it's their National Championship? The sad thing? The game was in Little Rock.

Good lord. Should make a 'Hogs Fan puke Red and White.

We should lose to MSU and perhaps Nebraska and maybe (GULP) scUM.
The Defense was supposed to be lock down. It is not. Not even close.

Braxton dominates when he wants to and then proceeds to take 4-5 series off. Strange.

I'm so confused--Michigan State or Notre Dame?!!??!?!?!?!?!

Who in the hell am I supposed to be rooting for?

I hope they both die. LOL

Bronco...

I don't get the play calling...it eerily reminds me of Tressel ball. They have top rated RB yet they don't look or act like it. Is it the O line still? Can't figure them out.

I hear they are calling for fickel and vrables head in cbus.

I am trying to head back for Nebraska game..... Well see

"However, I think they stumble. Maybe twice. I don't know why. Coaching? Who knows."-NostradamusSchooler from above about USC


Poor USC. Can't beat the Tree. Barkley's never beat them. Breaks my little ole heart how 'SC closed that game out.

2nd and 10--Barkley Sacked
3rd and whatever--Barkley Sacked
4th and f*cking FORTY--INCOMPLETE PASS!!!!

Pandemonium ensues at Palo Alto. Just awesome.

Can't get any better than that. Notre Dame beating Mich State in the fashion they did? Just poor for the Small 10. Sheesh. Bet Murf loved that one.

Marvin Lewis would have been proud of the coaching staff at Cal.
Nothing like being a huge dog on the road and getting a gift tied at 28 with 4 minutes left and being too scared to win the game.
Then what on earth was the safety doing?

Miller is like Golston...
Athletes, but not qb's.


Another year of college football and yet another year of Vtech being over ranked and Vtech losing to a bad football team.

Notre Dame is joining the ACC and has agreed to play 5 ACC football games...

Bama is simply good.

http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

OK--my Offender of the Weak is:

ALABAMA.

Their azz-handing of Florida Atlantic is going to be disgusting. I'll say 58-3.

Special Mentions:

Nebraska vs. Idaho State (when you don't even know the school's mascot you're playing, you get mentioned.....)

Mississippi State vs. South Alabama (who?????)

Michigan State vs. Eastern Michigan (Christ)


Look, I know the Big 10 (12) like to play instate schools--but WTF?!?!?!??!?!? No other school other than Michigan is worth mentioning in the state. In Ohio, there's nobody but....same with Ne-f*cking-braska.

Play somebody within your own firepower. The NCAA has to step in a do something about this. Seriously.

One more thing that Murf is going to be proud of--I'm taking Notre Dame over the F*ckheads. I wish they would both die--but that unfortunately won't happen--so I'm pick TD Jesus. F*ck them--but beat GD Michigan. THANKS. Another thing--Notre Dame looks like a different team this year. They look nasty. It's about f*cking time. Maybe they just haven't played a decent team this year--but still--they have a different attitude than the last 10 years. Maybe they will start recruiting again?

I am not sold yet.
They have had the hardest schedule in football to start the season and even if they win tonight, they still have a hard way to go and that offense is not there yet and the defense is relying on true freshman to man corners at times and that scares me against a good offense.
I would feel better with Reese playing qb.

BTW
The big 10 better not ignore Purdue.

I believe you have Bama, then about 10 teams playing for second place.


http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Not to worry. Robinson is going to throw 7 picks if they keep him throwing.

What is Michigan's other option at QB? Robinson SUCKS C*CK in the passing game. That sh*t's terrible.

Jesus. Where to start?

Illinois losing.
Iowa losing.

And not to the elite conferences either. WAC and MAC. How waaaaaaacky.....

And Ohio State struggled vs. UA-f*cking B.....Alabama-Birmingham?!?!??!?!?!? My God.

The only bright spots are Northwestern and Minnesota. They're both undefeated. Who woulda thought? Granted, they both haven't played anybody. South Dakota or whomever really shouldn't count.

BTW Murf--told ya. Congratz....

I would simply love to see a rematch of Alabama and LSU in the NCG as well as for the next year, and the next year and the next year and watch the NCAA scramble around in a vain attmpt to find parity in college football once again.

As for USC, they lost to Stanford cause they don't want to be humilated by the SEC in the NCG. Now they will probably wind up in their own back yard playing the second best big 10 team in the Rose Bowl.....again.

Kelly must have heard me from Cincinnati when I screamed about as loud as a human can scream to get that fuching qb out of the game and put in a real qb that can throw the fuching football.

Irish defense is pretty good.
The front 7 even after losing a great player can play.

Notre Dame might be something special next year, and have a chance to make some noise this year.

Ohio State is just bad.
Watching them struggle at home against another weak team is alarming.

The Big joke has been this bad for years.
I had a guy tell me last night that the Big 10 was the second football confr. behind the PAc 12 over the past 10 years.
He said the SEC was only 2 teams.

So I asked him to name 3 legit names in the big 10 over the past 10 years.
OHIO STATE/WISKEY.....still waiting on the dominate team over the past decade...lol

http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

LSU!!!!!

Jesus Christ--when in the f*ck are these guys going to play somebody out of conference?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Towson State?!?!?!?!?!?!? I don't know their mascot either.

LSU gets my pick of the year.

I know--"but we play the SEC Schedule....blah, blah, blah....."

Come'on. At least play somebody from a REAL Conference.

70-63?

Both teams should be embarrassed.

Bearcat game was one of the better games I have watched in a long time and they beat VT at the same time..made a rather boring saturday into something rather enjoyable.



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

OSU looked better against MSU.

They will need their D to show up next week. Taylor Martinez and Burkhead slashed us for quite a few yards last year. I should know, I went to the game at Memorial Stadium. We had them beat until Braxton got hurt. Ugh...

"Insert witty quotation here"

OSU did look better against MSU. Of course, most schools seem to this year when playing MSU. OSU had three turn overs and still won. LOL.

Nebraska is a different story. If OSU plays like that against them then lights out.

I just hope that OSU can begin to use their running backs effectively. If not, then their QB is going to get hurt very soon. What was puzzling against MSU is that OSU seemed to dominate the line but was averse to sending Hyde up the middle.

BTW--my Offender last weekend was none other than:

THE UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI.

Fordham?!!?!??!?!? Fordham?!!!??!??!?!???!?!?!?!?!?!? Get real. Pick on somebody your own size, Bearcats.

Shame Shame Shamey Shame on you.

Why must OSU score 50+ points every game just to win now?

I've never seen a defense so inept at OSU as the one right now.

So what is the deal? Why are they soooo bad? Should Fickle get canned? What?

Falc.....not UC faut. They were supposed to play TCU and OSU this year.....they asked out of OSU game to schedule TCU...then TCU dropped from big east....left them scrambling last minute when all others had full schedules.

UC is like Boise ...nobody wants to play them....Like a mid major....they can beat you..but you win no points when you beat them.

Don't blame the Cats

Lets see how OSU handles Pur-don't this weekend. They always gave Tressel a headache. Strange, I know.

Normally, they play better at home.

We will see.

As far as UC is concerned, who cares who they play? the name of the game is get to a BCS bowl. $$$$$

I thought the big east lost their AQ status??

UC needs a little love right now with all the conference problems thay've had. True they played some cupcakes this year but most teams have some. UC is one of the few good things Cincy has at the moment and right now Cincy needs a little love with the Reds debacle and of course the bungs.

I wasnt bad mouthing them. The name of the game is get to a BCS bowl. If UC can do that, awesome.

It doesnt matter who they play as long as they are in an AQ conference.

Play cupcakes - just get into the BCS bowl.

"Insert witty quotation here"

I know you weren't. I'm still distraught over the Reds debacle - to put all that energy into something and then nothing. Desolation. Wounded Tiger.

What sucks for UC is that they made the jump to a major conference, and won that title and gained some serious respect and came close to playing for a National Title and now they will return to being irrelevant on the national scene.

"Falc.....not UC faut."


Hey their fault or not--they're still my offender last weekend. Don't worry, next weekend, conference play or not, I'm picking whomever plays Arkansas or Kansas.

BTW--how's that UKansas thing working out for fatazz Charlie Weiss? har har har

"Hey their fault or not--they're still my offender last weekend."

Granted they had a cupcake last week as was Delaware. But don't most teams have some cupcakes on their schedules? In UC's case thay had too many this year - the scheduling dept. forgot to go to the Scheduling 101 class last year (when they put the schedule together).

Don't know about UC, but I think Ohio State and Notre Dame are ranked too high and before the season is over will get their Comeuppance.

Don't crown me yet Denis Green:

"I'm going to pick USC vs. Oklahoma to begin with--just for the hell of it."


Jesus.

My vote goes to Mississippi State. They play Middle Tennessee State. This is somewhat of a stretch--since MTU isn't that bad--but with conference play in full-swing, I don't have much of a choice. I could have selected whomever plays Colorado, Arkansas, or Kansas.


I hate f*cking Indiana Schools other than Ball State.

Notre Dame will get destroyed next week if they come into that game like they did today.

http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Notre Dame will get destroyed no matter what they do Murf.

Here comes the judge!!

If ND can score they should beat Oklahoma. They have a D like Baltimore

"Notre Dame will get destroyed no matter what they do Murf."


Normally, I would agree with this comment. However, there is the Bob Stoops Factor to be figured in. HE JUST DOESN'T COACH WELL IN ULTRA BIG GAMES. I'm going to say that this is going to be a very close game.


BTW--next week's Offender of the Weak:

Rutgers

They play Kent State. Rutgers gets a "Come'on Man".





"So he got fired? Big deal. It's happened to the best of us. So he got kicked out of his house by his 400 lb'ed wife?!?!? That's probably better for him anyways."-OldSchooler on ChrisMBHater's absence

Golson to start for ND Saturday

"BTW--next week's Offender of the Weak:

Yeah--Rutgers needs a "Come'on Man" for losing to their Cupcake. LMAO.

So I'm not 'Damus. Big deal.

Next week's Offender of the Weak:

STANFORD.

I realize that Colorado is a Conference Opponent--but The Buffalos really need to be kicked out of the PAC-12. Seriously.

I also realize that Oregon is good--but Come'on Man--at least show up. 70-14? Good f*cking God. Some AD needs to be shot today. Or maybe a coach? How about a public hanging? Colorado needs it.

Notre Dame. Sorry Murf. BC just sucks. No Flutie = you will roll today.



BTW--the Upset Alarms are wailing in Tuscaloosa. Can A&M pull it off?

I'm thinking NO.



Last week's OOTW: It SHOULD have been Notre Dame again, Murf--but Pitt made it interesting.





"So he got fired? Big deal. It's happened to the best of us. So he got kicked out of his house by his 400 lb'ed wife?!?!? That's probably better for him anyways."-OldSchooler on ChrisMBHater's absence

Texas A&M has scored two times on this drive only for the officials to place it back at the 1/2 yard line.

I already know what the ending of this game is going to be like (it's a setup)--Alabama by 3 in OT.

I believe I called this upset...

Not sure this upset is going to hold up in the second half, but it is fun to watch.

LOL



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

And the Death Toll has been tolling for hours in Alabama.

This makes things very interesting.

The weird thing about it is that analysts are initially stating that the 'Tide is out of the National Championship Contention.

BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!

WRONG ANSWER.

The Elephants are not out of it. Here's what could happen:

1. Oregon loses in either their annual Civil War or to Stanford in the PAC-12 Championship

2. K-State doesn't run the table--they lose to Oklahoma in the Big-12 Championship

3. Alabama wins their SEC Championship Game vs. Georgia.

Guess what?

The National Championship ends up being (lord forbid, Murf--LOL):

Notre Dame (if they run their schedule) vs. Alabama.


Jesus. I just ralphed considering it.

Plus, I don't think the pollsters are going to drop Alabama down that far in their rankings. I know it's not fair. I know people are going to be pissed off. But to be fair--I still think Alabama is the best team in the country. Everybody fears playing them. Everybody EXCEPT Texas A&M's QB. LOL

And they weren't the best team today--but the other 365 days of 2012 (remember Leap Year?)--they ARE.

I am watching Oregon right now.
Defense not that good against a bad offense with a back up qb.

Bama...
I believe they are the most sound team.
Need a ton of help..

Kstate..
Klien is like watching a faster Big Ben

Notre Dame
Strong run game with a great defense.
QB is getting better but still has a long way to go.
Still have to go to USC...


Johny Football is the real deal.
If Healthy will be the best college qb for the next 2-3 years.
Just wondering what kind of talent A&M will have to help him



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Don't forget the Bearcats - one of the few things Cincy has going for it now. Beat Temple for a 7-2 record going into the Rutgers game next week. UC might get a BCS bowl this year if the cards fall right -if they beat Rutgers and Louisville loses (they had a key player go down today). That might salvage another dismal year for cincy sports.

Bearcats are doing well.

Great to see..
Problem is the recruiting is going to go back to second and third tier talent because the conference is going to be garbage.



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Offender of the Weak #1:

Texas A&M (Sam Houston State)


Offender of the Weak #2:

Florida (J-Ville State)



F*ck man--how many payoff games do you need, J-Ville?!?!?!?!?!?!? That's #3 for the year that you're the WEAK. Talk about zero conscious.





"So he got fired? Big deal. It's happened to the best of us. So he got kicked out of his house by his 400 lb'ed wife?!?!? That's probably better for him anyways."-OldSchooler on ChrisMBHater's absence

Your Irish have their golden egg handed to them by the Baylor Bears (who should be rated at least #20, IMO). They are handing Klein and company their azzes by a longshot.

You may have your shot at the Duckies. Good luck. Better be prepared to score more than they do.

Oh yeah--don't look to hurting them either. They are one of the deepest teams in the country. The next guy can step in and do almost a decent enough job as the starter.

GOOD LUCK MY FRIEND.

Oh yeah--and you will beat USC. Barkley is out. I predict your LB'er will have a big day against the Condoms.





"So he got fired? Big deal. It's happened to the best of us. So he got kicked out of his house by his 400 lb'ed wife?!?!? That's probably better for him anyways."-OldSchooler on ChrisMBHater's absence

Oregon losing is the worst thing that could have happened to Notre Dame. Now Alabama awaits them. LOL.

Not going to get too pumped up until after they finish.
Barkley going out is a bitter sweet deal in my opinion.

He is a great qb that you don't have to face..but the back up has very little film to study and being at a school like USC, he can't be some scrub that can't play.
So that makes me a little nervous.

Bama is not that great, I would be more worried about playing Oregon.
Football is a game of match ups and Notre Dame can match up with Bama if and that is a big if they can beat Georgia again.

Just might be Notre Dame/Georgia

I do enjoy seeing the back on top for the first time in 18 years.
I was told they are irrelevant and will never be on top again.
A second tier team living in the past.

11-0 with 5 wins against top 25 teams with another top 25 team to end the season would place them in the company of the so called elite.

http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

"Just might be Notre Dame/Georgia"


Yes. This could happen. It depends on who wins the SEC Championship Game now. Losing late screws you. That's why K-State is out. Oregon is out. Oregon may have screwed themselves real good losing to Stanford. Oregon still has to play Oregon State. This letdown could be very costly.

THEY MAY NOT EVEN BE IN THEIR OWN CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!!

Who knew that the PAC-12 Conf Champ Game may be:

Stanford vs. UCLA


I'm pretty sure we all thought it would be:

Oregon vs. USC.


Just a weird year of NCAA Football.

BTW--the BCS just saved itself again by the top 2 teams losing. Now there isn't a controversy. I would swear the BCS sets that up like the Mafia.

I don't care what happens otherwise but please for the love of sanity and everything sacred, let us not have UGA win that SEC Title game. It'd be unbearable to live down here for at least a year.

BMN

Murf is pleased, no doubt

Still don't trust the qb in the biggest game since Lou left.
The few good plays a game that you see on ESPN over shadow the many bad snaps, but the defense is pretty good.
8 touchdowns all season..11 games in college football and have only give up 8 touchdowns the entire season, that is something special.

Love hearing the haters make sh!t up.

But like I said, they have done nothing yet...
Have to take care of USC, with or without Barkley that game scares me.



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Wow. It feels like 1988 all over again.

Should we all start growing out the power mullet?



Think about this for a second. Ohio State isn't trouble (just consider it momentarily)--they win out. Notre Dame wins out.

Ohio State plays ND in the National Title Game.

That would f*cking rule. So much for the SEC being the faster guy argument.

But dammit. Rules are rules and ETHICS ARE ETHICS--right Tress? LOL




"So he got fired? Big deal. It's happened to the best of us. So he got kicked out of his house by his 400 lb'ed wife?!?!? That's probably better for him anyways."-OldSchooler on ChrisMBHater's absence

I think that Ohio State Irish match up would be a very good game.

The Irish have handled both passing and running qb's this year and the Buckeye defense would drive Gholston nuts.

Still believe the Irish can hang with Bama if they beat USC...big IF.



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

"Still believe the Irish can hang with Bama if they beat USC...big IF."


The Georgia Bama matchup is going to be the game of the year, IMO. SEC Championship.

I think they matchup fine. It's more even than you think.

The difference? Like in most games--Which QB f*cks up the least.

It could come down to who has the ball last. And I like Georgia in the Dome. It's going to be like a f*cking home game for them.

Funny to say this--but I don't think Alabama can handle the pressure. Weird. But soooooo 2012.




"So he got fired? Big deal. It's happened to the best of us. So he got kicked out of his house by his 400 lb'ed wife?!?!? That's probably better for him anyways."-OldSchooler on ChrisMBHater's absence

Anybody but the SEC.

Yes, that includes the Domers.

"Insert witty quotation here"

Bama lost a bunch of special players this year from last year.
They are not that great of team.
Solid, one of the best, but I don't think anyone is going to talk about this team 10 years from now and name them as one of the best.

The best question of the decade is what if Notre Dame fails on saturday.

Who plays in the title game?



http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

To answer your question:

The National Championship, if ND fails (they won't), will be........

SEC Championship Game Winner vs. Florida



I know you guys are kicking and screaming about that one. LOL!!!!!


Murf--Barkley's out. I don't expect USC to do much--but you never know--this would be the 3rd weekend in a row that a #1 team has fallen.....

My pick is:

Notre Dame


Jesus. I can't believe USC is this week's Weak. But she is. Good lord.



Murf--think about it--I really don't have much of a choice this week. Take it easy on my pick.

Who give s a **** who plays in the title game? It is all bullschit anyways, as the college system is the stupidest sports system ever devised, and no champion can ever truly call themselves the college football champs. Until we get a decent playoff system 'that makes sense' college football (which could be the funnest and most entertaining sport on the planet) will continue to lick balls. Seriously, what is the point of watching this garbage week in and week out when there is no 'payoff' at the end of the season. Just dumb.

Murf--you must be feeling like a million bucks right now.

Congratulations to your Irish. They've had one hell of a season.

Hopefully, they show up in a month. They either have to play Alabama or Georgia. Nice job.

LOL...

You could have picked Bama for playing Auburn.
My heavens how can a team fall that quickly?

Schooler...
It is hard to explain.
I follow teams like the Bengals and hope they win, but I follow Notre Dame like a religion...lol

Years ago lost a bet and had to get a tattoo..
I am not a tat kind of fella, but got ND on my leg because I will go to my grave as an Irish fan.
Good or bad..still a fan.

I take the heat from the haters.
I had to watch the bad hires of Davies/Willingham destroy a program listen to the haters telling me how Notre Dame would never be relevant again.

So yes, it is fun to watch the Irish return to the top.
My phone blew up last night and continues to keep buzzing as I sit here..lol

One of best friends is a huge Bama fan..hoping on an Irish/Bama battle.

Plus Mark May might go on suicide watch if Notre Dame wins...






http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

Oregon State. They're playing Nichols State or whatever. Shame shame. Lose your Bowl Game.

I'm a poet and didn't know it.

BTW--why am I thinking:

1. The REAL National Championship Game is being played today in Atlanta.
2. Can Mark Ricks coach his team out of a wet paper bag? So far, he's proved he can't in big games. Next to Bob Stoops, Ricks is next for not showing up in the big ones.

Goddammit--SPIKE THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That would have given you at least 2 more chances to get the ball in the end zone.

Bulldogs driving. 15 secs left. They line up. Take one chance.

STUPID.

Georgia doesn't deserve it again.

BTW--NONE of you are allowed to go all INXS on us--do an Autoerotic procedure and end up hanging yourselves. Gimme the rope. Hand it over. NO, GIVE IT HERE.

Why:

Alabama repeat in the National Championship Game. LOL

The SEC is way over hyped this year.

Great league, hands down better than any other league in college football, but just because you have 5 or 6 solid teams in one league, does not automaticaly make them the best teams in football.

They all are good football teams, but everyone of them can be knocked off as we have seen.

Oregon/Stanford/Notre Dame/Oklahoma/Kansas st/Ohio State
Any of these teams can match up and play against any team from the SEC.

That being said, all we can do is sit back and see what happens.


http://murf-seriously.blogspot.com/

I will laugh my arse off if Whisky (who is now 100% healthy) beats Stanford in the Rose Bowl...

"Insert witty quotation here"

Navy and/or Army.

Take your pick. Could be the pillowfight of the year

Har har har.

And yeah--I'll have Weak Picks all the way up to and including the BCS Bowl Week.
