RockRaines Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 19, 2009 -> 06:37 PM) I can look into the past where OSU lost to USC at home. It's odd to be confident when the Rose Bowl would be in LA. Forget Penn State, not talking about them. HAHAHA. So because OSU lost to USC they have no chance of beating them if they played them in the Rose Bowl? I like your logic. I hope they do play them again with a season under their belt.

WilliamTell Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Hopefully someone else besides USC wins the conference so USC doesn't play in the Rose Bowl this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but it's odd to talk from a position of strength when they won in your place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Really can't be too upset by the way Tennessee played today, though we really could have won. If not for a dumbass play by Gerald Jones stepping out of bounds on a route in the endzone, Tennesse would have had 4 more points with a TD instead of the FG they had to settle for. And then of course, the epic fail of not tackling Tebow on 3rd down in Florida territory when UT had 2 defensive players ready to tackle him behind the line, when one dove and missed and tripped the other guy. That play was lucky as s***. 99 times out of 100 the defensive players take Tebow down, and Florida punts rather than scoring a few plays later. Chris Low (from ESPN) said it best - If Florida doesn't have Tim Tebow, they don't win that game. Or if Tennessee had some semblance of a passing game, Tennessee wins that game." Too bad we just couldn't finish. 2 FG's in the red zone can't happen when you're playing a team like Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I'd go that far, but it was a competitive effort from Tennessee. Their D was impressive, but they have a long way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Being an SC fan isn't so fine and dandy lately. They always have to lose a Pac-10 game, and with road games still looming against Oregon and Cal, they could end up with 2 P10 losses which I'm not sure is good enough to win the conference.

Palehosefan Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 Proud as hell of my Texas Tech guys. Tough to go into Austin and beat Texas and the refs. Over 200 yards of penalties called on Tech tonight, hilarious stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, Tech (barring a weird 3 way tie that goes their way) will need to win out in league play and have Texas lose twice to make the Big 12 Championship Game. And considering neither of those is going to happen, I can't consider them a legit Big 12 title contender. They have a better team than I thought they would though.

That way, everyone who b****es about these teams who never have a chance get to see Boise get destroyed in the Championship game and they make sure it never happens again.

zenryan Posted September 21, 2009 Author Share Posted September 21, 2009 Only way Boise can get to that title game is if every one loses 2 games.

The only team in front of Boise who I would say has the greatest chance of not losing 2 games is Texas.. Im not counting Florida because I think they are gonna go undefeated.. If there was ever a season where a non BCS school plays for a National Title, this is it. I don't think Boise will lose a game, which is going to put them right there..

bmags Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Well, I take back what I said. Clearly the difference in the Mizzou-Furman game was the beat furman t-shirts. Hey T-tech fan(s), if you want to go to the big 12 conference championship just move to the big 12 north. Convince your school boards to put in the text books that texas tech is ACTUALLY in the north, show the text books to the big 12 conference, and voila!

My god that program is in a tailspin that is going to be hard to get out of. It's such a cool school, too. If I was good at football I would love to play in Boulder. Not for that coach, though.

They can't handle elite athletes (the Oklahoma game was a perfect storm of flukes, most noteable of which was Bradford getting hurt) and we saw that exposed against Florida State. TCU will beat them later this year too, and if they play a team with elite athletes in a bowl, they'll lose again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easier for less talented teams to hang with those type teams, especially finesse teams that is breaking in 4 new O-lineman and missing their 2 best offensive weapons. FSU is a very physical team, especially on the offensive line and was able to basically manhandle BYU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
