Pick a negative aspect of modern society. The South leads in whatever category it was. Punching wives, meth, education (lack of), fat people, diseases kids get when you decide Faygo Redpop is an acceptable drink for an infant, whatever.

I didn't watch the game, but UNLV lost to NIU. It was closer than I thought it'd be which is a good thing. Maybe this team has something.

FAUXTON posted:Teen pregnancy and domestic violence aren't really positive qualities, y'all. Apparently those don't exist in Iowa? Virginia Tech lost, which was not good. I wasn't surprised at ECU being good, I expected that. In all reality I expected VT to win by a touchdown or so. They...really hosed it up and forgot to play the beginning and end of the game. I didn't see this team getting to the playoff but I thought that their loss would either be at Ohio State or in-conference. Instead, a team with a legitimate shot at the G5 invite. swizz posted:I am more surprised by Boston College upending USC than I am ECU taking down Virginia Tech. Boston College hasn't made waves since Matt Ryan and I had become accustomed to the ACC version of Boston College being a bright spot on the schedule. ECU's program has a reputation nationwide is likely on par with the directional Michigan schools (if that good) but they are almost always much better than that and a complete pain in the rear end to play against. They are the ultimate trap team. You never get any credit for beating them and a blowout hardly raises an eyebrow. Lose and it's a disaster. I can't say anything to Virginia Tech fans, they beat us badly last season and they're probably going to do it again next Saturday in Greenville. I scanned the GDT thread and did not see any meltdowns so that is good. swizz really nails it here between BC and ECU. I was very surprised to see BC win a game against a team that has more talent on the field. Whatever it is, it happened. Steve Addazio has actually been okay as a head coach. So much so that he might have been a good choice to become head coach at Florida, as long as he didn't run the offense. Guy loves to run the dang ball, though. The upsets of two top ten teams made it hurt less, at least.

On the one hand, Mizzou has played no one of note yet. But, they also have 3 20+ pt victories, which is encouraging. Also, despite what I said earlier in the GDT, the defense actually played well today. If they can maintain pressure on the QB they look pretty good. Of course, between Mizzou and the crowd in the East I would definitely still pick the crowd. But I still expect them to make some noise. I would not be shocked if they repeated in the East, but I do not expect that. I do think they can compete with South Carolina and Georgia. And I think they still get treated like little kids in the SEC, the first SEC campaign certainly contributes to that, but I would be amazed if they finished worst than 3rd in their division. Point is, I am pretty encouraged so far. I remember last year pretty much every week people expected the Tigers to poo poo the bed in conference. I expect the same this year. But I also expect a similar result this year, a lot of weeks of people being surprised. Edit: I mention margin of victory not because I think hanging a lot of points on inferior teams is indicative of future success, but because Pinkel is notorious for not running up the score. I mean the Tigers have lost multiple games since I have paid attention to them because they shut down their offense too early. So any time they win by more than 20 strikes me as surprising. alpha_destroy fucked around with this message at 08:26 on Sep 14, 2014 |

If you're shocked VT lost you haven't been actually watching college football ever in your life. This was not some 12-0 miracle team. They'll finish with 8 or 9 wins(or maybe worse, who knows) but they were probably going to lose this game anyway and they were essentially a lock to do so when they beat OSU. This was Beamer being Beamer, nothing's changed after OSU. Even Mike London beats a ranked team every now and then.

Holy poo poo what a game for BG. Once our starting QB went down, and our star WR, a lot of people thought we'd be done for, especially after losing to WKU. Instead we have this fantastic game against Indiana, with scoring back and forth, at home even. Rogers is going to be a beast, and he's only a freshman, and Knapke is drat good as well (set a school record for completions and attempts (46/73) in only his 2nd ever start. Indiana kept shooting themselves in the foot at the end with penalties, but when we scored that last TD with 9 seconds left, I almost went crazy (if I didn't have a sleeping toddler next to me). Fantastic game, and I wish I had been there for it. This is our first win against a B14 team in a few years, though Indiana is improving. In that shithole excuse for a "BCS" conference, I wouldn't be surprised if they pull off a few upsets along the way and manage to get a bowl game. We play Wisconsin next , which will be a challenge since they're the better team, and it's at Wisconsin. If we go into MAC play at 2-2, I'll be happy as that's where I was hoping we would be (just not with the loss against WKU)

Then again, I enjoy Mug so take that as you will. Boise State got a win on the road, but we should have performed a lot better. This team is not beating BYU or San Diego State, that's for sure. I can compare the game to a poo poo that starts out kind of wet and you think "man I have diarrhea" but then it solidifies and then it takes a while to clean up and well that's Boise State football.

You'd think he would be really good and be able to score a touchdown at any time by using his time-out power, but whenever he tries it calls an actual time out so it doesn't work.
