[GOP_Raider]

TCU has really put it together late in the year. From the two Frog games I've seen this year--against us and Baylor--they struggled offensively.

[catholicfreeper]

Boy what a week, for some reason it appears that its the opinion of everyone outside Louisiana that poor ole LSU is just going to get taen to the woodshed This is a more adequate prediction of what will happen The boot is going to stay in Louisiana Hope yall boys havent bet this game yet

[catholicfreeper]

By the way interesting article on Rutgers especially and how much money they put into their program the last few years.
But I found this interesting as to Revenue Surpluses as to schools
"Michigan had the largest reported surplus among the top 10 at $34 million, followed by LSU ($25.4), Notre Dame ($24.6), Florida ($24.1) and Ohio State ($22.2) in 2004-05.

The reported surpluses often do not include new facility costs and debt."

[SoCal Pubbie]

Mike, your pick in the SC/ND game falls in line with my prediction. Of course that's what I thought we'd have last year, but I think the Irish shot their wad last October.

I'm still trying to get tickets to the game. Need four in a decent location. How about it folks, who wants to help out a fellow Freeper?

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Miami beats No. 18 Boston College 17-14 in front of 23,308 at the Orange Bowl.

[MikefromOhio]

Larry Coker has been fired by Miami. The press conference is on ESPN at this time.

Lots of great football on today.

[MikefromOhio]

yeah....that attendance is pathetic

[MplsSteve]

Interesting.

I caught Coker's post-game interview on ESPN.

He seemed to think that he'd be coaching next year.

I've never been a big Miami fan but if they do get a bowl game, I hope they'll let Coker coach it.

[MikefromOhio]

He answered that question, but I was on the phone and missed it.

[MikefromOhio]

I never bet with money I'm not willing to lose ;)

However, until JaMarcus Russell wins a big game without a mistake, you have to go with history.

[Dog Gone]

All times are EST. Don't want folks tuning in late!

[Lakeshark]

Good grief....

Not only am I forced to be Notre Dame fan for several hours, but now I have to be tortured by listening to Brent Mussburger?

Oh, the humanity!!!!

[Dog Gone]

Oh dear, I didn't notice that until you pointed it out.

USC is going to have to win by 28 points in order for me to overcome the pain of the announcers.

Mussburger is the one who revealed the hand signals Booty was using to audibilize at the line of scrimmage earlier this year. I still want to punch him in the nose for that.

[MikefromOhio]

That happens ya know :)

[MikefromOhio]

well hey you DO get to listen to Herbie :)

[Dog Gone]

I hope the football gods forgive if I say that the Perdue/Hawaii game just starts entirely too late for me to stay up for.

[MikefromOhio]

Yeah me too....

That could be one of those playstation type games....

It seems to me, just watching the Larry Coker press conference, he seems relieved....

[Dysart]

We see McFadden pointing out the keys to victory today: (1) Dominate in the running game (2) Limit Casey Dick to safe throws (3) Mix in a trick play or two at just the right time, (4) Flush Russell out of the pocket(blitz if required) and force at least two turnovers. (5) Lastly keep the LR crowd in the game. This is a pretty young team and they feed on emotion.

I think that LSU has slightly better overall talent on paper but perhaps not the best team. We'll see.
