Here we go, last chance to change the BC$ standings....

Miami (+7)/Va Tech
Auburn (+15)/Tennessee
OU (+22)/Colorado
USC (+23)/UCLA

The only surprises I expect are Va Tech over Miami, and the Buffs make the Big 12 championship closer than expected. Auburn and USC will roll big. Ank will be pulling for S. Miss to @ least stay close to Cal. Ain't gonna happen.

In other news, Zook is rumored to be headed to ILLinois, and UofL's Petrino is favored for Ole Miss. Domers still don't have a clue....how 'bout Mike Price? :gomer:

Price is staying at UTEP for at least 2 more years, he owes them, he owes them big... Mike "call me jack daniels" Leach is rumored for the illinois gig too, but don't see why he'd leave the state for illinois of all programs, dan hawkins is being rumored for the domer gig cuz he's catholic, and of course everyone thinks stoops will go, why? i don't know, the man has one of the top tradition laden programs with one of the best recruiting bases... *shrug*

Price was suggested in jest...that would give the domers the triple crown for stupidity the past three years. So coach Mooch was contacted and declined...no matter what happens, it looks like the domers won't have a big name or hot young coach. Back to the drawing board...

BTW, this piece (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/columns/story?columnist=maisel_ivan&id=1938204) by Ivan Maisel is pretty spot on about ND's status and issues. Behold the Emperor's new clothes!

Stoops is always mentioned because the talking heads assume the grass is greener away from Norman. Heck, why would anyone leave OU knowing they have that game in hand each year @ UT? :gomer: Perhaps Greg Robinson is ready for a new challenge? ;)

Also, UofL Cardinals rolling big against 2lane. 2 bad they dint beat Miami. :gomer:

EDIT: note the good call on the Va Tech upset. 'SC having a bit of a problem w/UCLA...wonder if Dave is sweating yet? ;)

I read this, found it to be badass, so I'm posting it

The Past Decade:

Big XII has the most Heisman Trophy Winners (4)
Big XII has the most Football National Champions (4)
Big XII has the most National Championship Game Appearances (6)
Big XII has the most BCS appearances

This year:

The Big XII South Division alone leads all conferences along with the SEC in total number of teams represented in the BCS Top 25 (5)
The Big XII will once again place a team in the BCS National Championship game (superseding a 12-0 team from the SEC to get there)
The Big XII will once again have a good shot at having 2 teams in the BCS (looking more likely)
Big XII had the best non-conference record of the major conferences

the past 4 years, only 2 teams have had 10 win seasons the entire time
UT... OU... muahahaha. wait... we're OU's bitch... :cry: :(

Brad Edwards' latest BCS take:

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?page=roadtobcs/1204


The big question now, of course, is whether Texas will jump over Cal in the BCS Standings. Given that nearly 100 voters currently have the Bears ranked higher, and that many of them might have seen Cal play live for the first time all season on Saturday night in a 10-point win over Southern Miss, it seems logical that at least three or four would have been unimpressed enough to change their order and cause a BCS switch.

But regardless of which team finishes fourth, expect that team to be Michigan's opponent in the Rose Bowl. That leaves Utah against Pittsburgh in the Fiesta and Virginia Tech to play Auburn in the Sugar Bowl.

Kinda silly that the Cal/So Miss even factors into the equation....had it occurred in Sept. as scheduled, it would have been totally meaningless unless Cal had lost. Alas, may the better team go (all things being equal I favor Cal as the better team)...I'll be rooting for the Wolverines either way.

Ankf00
12-05-04, 03:11 PM
ya, playing a 50th ranked SOS and only 2 bcs top 25 teams all year is definitely the way to prove you're WITHOUT question the better team :rolleyes:

bottom line: cal knew what it had to do in this game, execute, and they didnt, 17-16 in the 4th quarter, and once again, like the oregon game, had to rely on the other team missing their extra point

if mangino the hutt didn't cry about the pass interference call in the kansas game, no one notices that game and you don't have corso and herstreit lying to the country saying "southern miss is better than kansas, texas almost lost to kansas"

Yeah, it's official. I feel sorry for the Cal guys. They got horked just like the Hawkeyes in '02. This conference bowl affiliation cr@p is just plain silly (ala 33 is just a number). They need a playoff system using the existing bowl structure with four or eight teams. For once I actually agree w/Trev Alberts. The BC$ is simply cr@p. The official polls should be published until just before the BC$ starts...maybe a week or two before. Let every Tom, Dick, and Harry publish their own polls until then. I know that this is all pie-in-the-sky, as the greedy conferences, schools, and media bastiges will never go for it. I am officially an objective observer on all of the BC$ happenings this year, and this just plain reeks. I don't give a rat's @ss about SC, OU, Texas, Cal, or AU (other than poking fun @ Ank about the Shorthorns)...I just want to see something fair and balanced. History shows that the BC$ just doesn't work.
</RANT>

Texas/Michigan should be a good game. Michigan has problems with mobile QBs (OSU/MSU), so Youngs will present a challenge. I just don't know whether UT has enough deep threat speed like Holmes and Ginn to exploit the D.

but you should blame the rest of your conference for losing to the likes of boise and oklahoma state and making your SOS look like crap, the writers putting louisville and iowa ahead of UT could only last so long, decent SOS from a good pac-10 sched would've put you 5 in the computers instead of 6, oh ya, blame pitt and the big least

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v448/flyingsquirrel/TX-vs-MI.jpg This is greatness!

you know, I was really nervious that Dewey defeats Truman pic was going to come back to screw me in the morning after hearing espnradio's straw poll of ap voters gave us enough votes, but it came through nicely :D

also, if the writers weren't playing politics with their poll putting a 10-1 lousiville ahead of us, or a 2 loss Iowa, and if mangino the hutt didn't lift his face out of his trough after he gave up 4th and 18 to vince young, giving national attention to our close call while no one mentioned cal needed 5-6 oregon to miss an extra point IN BERKELEY to win, texas would've been ahead of cal the past 2 weeks instead of the other way around, and this wouldn't have been half the shocker.

conclusion: system sucks ass, cal and ut should both be here, pitt should be in the myteamsucks.net bowl, not the Tostitos Siesta Bowl

Must have missed that post whilst ranting @ the toob last night (with the wife upstairs shaking her head as usual). :) I actually fell off the couch and bonked my head while watching the MSU/Hawaii game last night (MSU invented a new standard for choking this season), and I just came to my senses.

In any case, on campus there are two hotels: an older Holiday Inn and The Blackwell, which is brand spanking new. The team stays @ The Blackwell, so y'all got no chance to stay there. The Westin Southern must be downtown (formerly The Southern Hotel), which was recently rennovated and is pretty darn nice. There's plenty of room downtown, which is ~5 miles from The Shoe. I doubt the NHL guys will be using any of the rooms downtown next season either. :saywhat: Anyway, there's two Hyatts, a Clarion or Mariott, Holiday Inn, and a former Adam's Mark (not sure what it's being called these days). Alternatively you can stay in the 'burbs with yahoos like me and commute the 15-30 minutes.

Tailgating near the stadium is pretty exclusive. My father in law has had season tix for 30+ years (even while they lived in NJ), and pays $50 per game to park a mile from The Shoe across the river. :eek: There are public spots just a little further away, but beware the crackdown on opener containers of the past couple of years. The fun ****s are on patrol. :(

The big scene before and after the game is @ a party called the Heiney Gate, which is right out front of the Holiday Inn on campus (plenty of Girls Gone Wild action). You've also got to check out the Varsity Club, which is a renowned spot for having beverage before games (it's been mentioned in SI in the past).

Cedar Point is only open weekends after local schools start, so you'll need refrain from partying too much on game day.

"Would Bob Stoops (of Oklahoma) or Mack Brown have gone for the score there?" Rodgers asked. "Yes. But coach Tedford is a classy guy."

"I'm a little frustrated, but I'm not surprised," Rodgers said. "Every year, there's a BCS controversy. This just shows it's a flawed system. After the Stanford win, we lost ground in both polls, so I don't know. I knew we had to have a convincing win (over Southern Mississippi), but the place we played and the team we played, and we didn't run the score up ... I guess that's not good enough for the voters."


Rodgers needs to stfu, Mack took a knee in A&M territory and kept playcalling conservative the entire 4th quarter

Michigan and Wisconsin losing the stanford weekend resulted in UT gaining what were previously UM's and UW's votes. He also selectively ignores that cal gained 17 votes during their BYE WEEK when we beat A&M, ya, big east-coast conspiracy :rolleyes:

The schools with the worst graduation rates, both overall and for black players, were Pittsburgh and Texas. Pittsburgh had an overall graduation rate of 31 percent and 20 percent for black players. Texas had an overall graduation rate of 34 percent, 33 percent for its black players.

Texas spokesman Bill Little said the study didn't take into account that many football players left and graduated at other schools after coach Mack Brown took over the program in 1998.

"When you change coaches, there are guys who don't want to play in that system," Little said.

I guess the Rhodes Scholars musta transferred... :p

As Mark Twain once said, there are lies, damn lies, and statistics. :)

For Ank:

Every rose has its thorn

We both lie silently still
In the dead of the night.
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart inside
Was it somethin' I said or somethin' I did
Did my words not come out right
Tho' I tried not to hurt you
Tho' I tried
But I guess that's why they say

Chorus:
Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn

Yea it does

I listen to your favorite song
Playin' on the radio
Hear the DJ say love's a game of
Easy come and easy go
But I wonder does he know
Has he ever felt like this
And I know you'd be here right now
If I could have let you know somehow
I guess

Chorus

Though it's been awhile now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you
The wound heals, but the scar, that scar remains

I know I could have saved our love that night
If I'd known what to say
Instead of makin' love
We both made our separate ways

Now I hear you've found somebody new
And that I never meant that much to you
To hear that tears me up inside
And to see you cuts me like a knife

:gomer:
