Yeah I think Bama is the only team that can pull the all white look and not come off looking like sissies. Texas is the worst looking team when they wear their all whites..

USC's offense looks very pedestrian today. The game against ucla should be over and because SC keeps self-destructing or just playing sloppy...it's still a game.

I'll give Florida and Tebow credit. They make the option offense fucking exciting. I think they need to do more option in order to pull out the win. John Parker is playing great for Bama.
 
Doug Flutie is a complete idiot. He's honking on about how USC isn't even close to being in the same league with Florida, Alabama, Oklahoma and Texas. Yeah OK Dougie, they're only the best defensive team in the nation :rolleyes:

Of course USC defence looks good this year, they're playing division II schools(pac 10) all year.

He's right though. Their "D" is pretty good, not great. You can't let OreSt tear you up like that. And Pryor did some things against them.

They had not had a GREAT "D" in about 3 or 4 years.

Wow....great game. Tebow is awesome. Both teams played their asses off and the better team won. Congrats to the Gators.....we'll see what happens in the Big 12 now.

they played without havin too...bama had something with the running game...but got shut down when the gators d stepped it up and stuffed the running game...and again, tebow is just a freakin *****

The two Washington teams are the only two that fit that description. Meanwhile your Sooners have given up 229 points in their last seven games. That's embarrassing.
 
Army's uniforms were fucking SWEET! :thumbsup:
Heh. Didn't help them win the game, though.

As with so many other things, I disagree with you on this. The top-level college football team that looks worst in its all-whites, for my money, is Penn State, BY FAR. In the past I've seen them referred to as either practice uniforms or as pajamas and I think either description is apt for those drab P.O.S. uniforms.

it's over...florida in the title game...who's going to join them?
Should be Texas, in my opinion, but it will end up being Oklahoma unless Mizzou can pull the upset off tonight.

He is awesome. But I kinda doubt that Jesus Christ had all that much to do with Florida winning that game today, as Tim Tebow tried to make it sound like afterward. The Gators will probably be winning their second national football championship in 3 years, now.

but USC has played teams like Virginia, Arizona St, Notre Dame, Ucla(all very bad offensive teams), and lose to Oregan St.

Also Oklahoma must have outscored those teams by an average of 30 points.
 
Well I guess we ekked it out. I wasn't to happy with the Gators performance but I guess we go it done. Tim Tebow had to take over cause of percy being out. Glad we get 5 weeks to rest for the Championship game. GO GATORS!!!

Uh huh. And last time USC played Oklahoma in football, WHAT was the final score? Oh yeah, 55 - 19, Trojans. And what is USC's ALL-TIME overall head-to-head record against the Oklahoma Sooners in football? 6 wins, 2 losses, 1 tie. The Pac-10 was a little down this year, but that doesn't mean that beating Pac-10 teams the way USC generally did this season was like playing WAC teams the way Boise State does, no matter WHAT some people apparently believe. USC has a very good defense this season. Not the best of all time, and maybe not even the best in the country this season, but it IS very good. They won't get the chance, but USC would be a VERY hard team for any other good team to beat, INCLUDING Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, and Texas. I'm not saying that they'd necessarily beat all four of those teams given the opportunity, but none of those teams would find the USC Trojans an easy team to beat, either.

Alabama has more than sufficiently showed up. SEC Championship looking pretty good.

BUT WHEN WILL MY TROJANS SHOW UP!!!!!! We are getting clobbered by ucla....Geez. Did we even prepare for this game? Fuck...
Yeah, the Bruins came out pretty inspired today (were they pissed off that USC was wearing cardinal against them in the Rose Bowl?), but once that wore off the Bruins were fairly easy pickings for the Trojans. I TOLD you that (F)UCLA quarterback SUCKS! Actually, he played better today than he did most of the season (heck he didn't even get picked off until late in the game!), but as you saw it still wasn't enough to help the Bruins win today. I'm looking forward to USC vs. Penn State in the Rose Bowl. USC has played 5 Big 11 teams since Pete Carroll became their coach in time for the 2001 season, 4 of them in bowl games, 3 in Rose Bowls (Miss-again twice and Illinois). In those games the USC Trojans are 5 - 0 and have outscored their opposition by an average of 36 - 14. Penn State had a good season, but I think we'll see more of the kind of punishment USC has dished out to Big 11 teams since 2001 next month in the 2009 Rose Bowl. I think the Trojans will beat the Nittany Lions by anywhere from 2 to 3 touchdowns. The athleticism of Daryll Clark? It won't mean squat against USC's "D." In my opinion Penn State lost the 2009 Rose Bowl as soon as Oregon State got squashed by the Ducks last Saturday.

Im talking about this season not the last 50 years. The mountain west was owning the Pac 10 head to head. USC has a talented football team but they had no compitition to prove it. No one would even be talking about Oklahomas defense if they played in the pac 10.
 
man, let's have texas vs usc...fuck the bcs ****...we need to put the top teams going against the top teams...not a texas vs ohio state and a usc vs penn state...who wants to watch that ****?

When USC plays top teams from other top programs, USC means business. Maybe Oklahoma would beat USC this season, maybe it wouldn't, but there is NO F*CKIN' WAY it would score in the 60s (or, in my opinion, even the 30s) against the USC Trojans, at least not in football.

that was a most impressive win by the Gators. Alabama came to play and would have beaten just about anybody. so count me happy and impressed. Rainey had a groin pull and w/Harvin sidelined, that was a huge performance by Tebow. Go Gators! now let's hope they don't cheated out of the NC game.
 
Halftime in the Big XII championship game and an upset by Missouri is looking pretty goddamned unlikely, if there ever was much chance of it at all. Looks like Florida vs. Oklahoma for the national championship in January. I don't really care about either of those teams but based on what Florida's been doing I'd have to make the Gators the favorite in that game. Oklahoma's good, no question about it, but in my opinion Texas is better and I'm not sure the Longhorns could beat Florida this season. I'd make the Gators at least a 7 point favorite against the Sooners in the national championship game. At this point I'll be surprised if we get anything other than a Florida Gators 2008 - 09 national football champions outcome next month.

Well....it's men against boys in the Big 12 tonight. Oklahoma is awesome....all credit to them. Upstoppable offense.....great defense. What a shame they lost to Texas, huh?

Not to go sour grapes here, but once again this BCS nonsense has screwed a very deserving team out of at least a fucking opportunity to compete for what they have earned. Congrats to the Gators and the Sooners....you guys won the right to play for the "championship" according to the rules. They may indeed be the best 2 teams in the nation. However, we'll never know now, will we? What a fucking travesty.

That said, I'm Big 12 all the way so good luck to Oklahoma in the national title game. They sure look ready to me but will no doubt have their hands full with a terrific Florida squad. Should be a great matchup.

you know, he's a huge church guy, right?

If there is a God, with all the problems in the world today, I'd be really fucking disappointed if He gave a rat's ass about the NCAA.
