RockRaines Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 06:22 PM) Hard to be impressed by USC who beat Minnesota by 2. Gotta love early season college football. You can go back and forth about who has looked good or bad based on the transitive property. I can tell you Robert Griffin looked good, other than that, no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 11:04 PM) They gone. I'm almost starting to believe Mizzou will be joining them. I'm thinking it's maybe 40% at this point. It could probably be higher I think you took him a bit too literally. Of course 11-1 gets a BCS bowl, but after beating Western Michigan by 3 it's hard to expect 11-1. Well, yeah, just playing hypotheticals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Well last year MSU went 11-1 and did not go to a BCS game, and there was no CCG. Im just saying with the first year of having a CCG in the Big 10, I think you really want to be one of those 2 teams, and not a team who doesnt go there and hope you some how jump the loser.

I don't think you have to lay off the Twitter (the Ozzie stuff was first on there tonight, and dead on) though as much as you have to know what you're reading and who is saying it.

What we've all known for years (everybody is cheating, the only difference between schools is how much they're cheating) is now obvious. ESPN is going to avoid negative SEC coverage at all costs, though. That league makes them too much money, and they're too busy promoting how great it is, to have such an open discussion.

I'm just sick of my own school's name dragged through the mud by those hacks on topcis like cars that were cleared as legit and above board, and then they actually go and sue the university for no real reason. Yet every SEC story is buried if written at all, the top story is on how they should allow the SEC to completely fill all BCS bowls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a sniff of anything comes up with other Big Ten schools, you'll see them get the same treatment from ESPN. They're a marketing/promotional enterprise looking for ratings. Nothing more.

Soxbadger Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Rumor has it that the SEC commissioner is going to request that the BCS change the rules to allow more than 2 teams from a conference in the BCS. My guess is that only the Big 10 and SEC would approve, thus not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, no worries, looks like my school is back in the NCAA investigation picture. Lane Kiffin really is the gift that keeps on giving. I'm so f***ing pissed. I dealt with a year and a half investigation, and now another one is being opened up for more violations during Kiffin's tenure. When will it end?

Even with you guys, ESPN has covered the Bruce Pearl aspect of the case so much, but not said much about Lane Kiffin. If it's SEC football, they'll defend it. With that said, I think you'll come out ok in football. Kiffin wasn't there long enough to do stuff TOO terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
