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.

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.

Dude you gotta lay off the twitter. Things change faster on there than they do in real life.

 

I mostly agree. 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.

Unemployed father of two Trent Richarson has owned 120k worth of cars this year. Dont worry, it wont make it onto the news will it ESPN?

 

I can't even get mad about these things. 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.

ESPN has had it out for the Big Ten since the day BTN launched. 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.

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?

Yet he's still allowed to coach. Something is so f***ing wrong with that.

 

The good news is he wont last long at USC.

You're betting on a corn shaped head.

 

 

 

lol, no. Knowing me I might throw $10 on it just for fun.

 

 

He lives in the Orlando area too, I just think it would be funny to run into and try to talk him into taking Nebraska. I thought it was bad when I saw little league world series lines but this might be even more degenerate.

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.

Lane Kiffin is the gift that keeps on giving....

 

That dude is pure poison, and I REALLY wish they'd give him the coaching death penalty for a few years honestly. He deserves it.
