College Gameday is infuriating me more every week. They were just talking about Auburn and how they are not number 2 and close call this and close call that against South Carolina. I am a LSU fan and I am not an Auburn Apologist. But did anyone notice all those close calls last weekend other top teams had. How come Auburn being on the road Saturday and then having to go on the road again and play on THURSDAY in front of a hostile crowd is not considered. How about the fact that every SEC game is dangerous or so they say. THe plots against the SEC continue. OK that is my rant for the day. Early kickoffs suck and has got me grouchy. ZGo Tigers beat State.
the father of the bride (and my dad too) brought little TVs, but I wanted to watch the game on a bigger screen :)
Sorry for being a bit late this morning....
Gameday is on ESPN, and we have several early games that should be nice appetizers for the main courses later on.
you know what I'm talking about then :)
In the background of College Gameday sign read:
"Troy Smith likes Unicorns", the sign had a rainbow on it...
we want confusion and controversy and several undefeated teams from big time conferences so the BCS will go boom....
yeah I saw that....
I kinda doubt that.
Of course it's coming from a kid who probably still has $h!t on his shoes from Cow tipping all night.
I've seen more clever signs in the background before...usually when Corso talks....
Texas Tech vs. Texas A&M on ABC at 2:30!
I'm a Red Raider married to an Aggie.
Who should a root for? LOL
They are also hypocrites. In 2004, they constantly said, USC and OU didn'y lose, how can we move then down? USC beat Stanford by 3 that year and Cal by 7 (at home). OU struggled to beat Oklahoma State and Texas A&M. If Auburn is moved down, then the hypocricy has been completely exposed.
BTW, hope you guys go undefeated this year and beat the daylights out of Florida next week.
Did Auburn beat everybody that year comfortably? If everybody comfortably beats there opponents this week Auburn will probably drop a slot.
Our only close game was LSU (10-9). Outside of that we killed Tennessee, beat UGA handily (24-6), beat Alabama handily, Beat Tennessee again handily. Poin of the matter is, the pollsters said repeatedly, "Neither USC nor OU lost, how can we move them down?" If they move AUburn down for not losing, they are hypocrites. Simple as that.
yeah
That one about the baby arm was hilarious...
Glad he picked Iowa by the way :)
Auburn won.
They shouldn't drop because of one game.
I learned that one in 2002 :)
I checked my TV listings tonight.
I got the Nebraska Kansas game.
Interestingly enough, I don't get the Cincy - Miami of Ohio game.
I really wanted to see what the local radio hacks were going to talk about all day /sarcasm
Do you have one of those "House Divided" TTU/TAMU flags?
Does it get under your skin when she calls you a "Techster"? Aggies can't ever seem to get the name right.
While I agree, the problem is that it is a beauty pageant. Colin Cowherd actually compared picking AUburn over USC in the polls would be like picking the ugly date from Match.com because Auburn isn't "flashy and sexy enough". USC is "pretty" with the LA glitz and bling while Auburn is from lower Alabama and we play smashmouth football and run and play defense to win. Not "pretty" enough for the pollsters according to Cowherd...
