Just aw the Sayin stat line from OSU-Grambling. 18-19 for 306 with 4 td’s and a pick. So the kid through 19 passes and none of them hit the ground.

If you’re Coach Cig, is Florida even that appealing of a job? If his goal has always been a “name” school then we can’t compete with that. But it’s almost the iubb problem for Florida. They’re in a conference with Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Texas, and that’s before you get into school like Tennessee, Oklahoma, Ole Miss. The fans expect SEC and national championships. Florida would be way more pressure, and for what? (Assuming IU is giving him whatever he asks for). If Cig was 50 years old I think it’s a totally different conversation, but he’s 64. 

I think most rational people can see what you’re saying, but I’m not sure how rational a guy like Cig is. He went in front of 17,000 people right after taking the job and said that 3 conference members suck. And while he has since said that he wanted to get a rise out of people, I can almost guarantee he believed every word he said on his insane press tour between taking the job and last season starting. 

That job/jobs like it are the flame and coaching sickos are the moth.

Zero love for Mcculley but he’s had a couple big catches tonight.

He admitted today that his emotions got the better of him in deciding to go for it o 4th v kicking a field goal. He was mad that his kicking team messed around and took a delay of game penalty.

I can see where Cig could get off track a bit and let things sway his decision making

Not making excuses for Michigan, Oklahoma is the better team, but Oklahoma has been holding all night and Herbstreit and the other idiot never say a word even when the replay shows it happening right in front of them!

#12 Arizona State snatched defeat from the jaws of victory at Mississippi State. They'll be dropping in this week's poll.

The Devils gave up a 58 yard TD with 41 seconds left in the game after going up 20-17 moments earlier. Then, following the kickoff, ASU QB Sam Levitt threw a game-ending interception to end the game.

Choked big time.

The Michael Vick experiment isn't going terribly well so far. 

3rd quarter: Virginia State 16, Norfolk State 10 

VSU is Division II. 

yep, also that Vandy shellacking of Tech in Blacksburg was wild. Vandy's D was great in that game.

I might have been impressed by that if it wasn't a team with 5 star athletes all over the field facing a poverty program.

I have watched a ton of college football over the years, and I can honestly say -- I've never seen a 1-0 halftime score!

A loss Friday night might just be the end for Foster.  Tino interim coach?

If you hire someone for your job that no one else in your industry would hire for their’s, you’re gonna be wrong way more often than you’re gonna be right. Foster wasn’t even getting OC buzz. He was never gonna be a high major HC anywhere else.
