You should watch FSU-GT.  It's like the Eastern Front.  FSU blitzkrieg versus GT attrition.  Rinse, repeat.

Gus Johnson is rapidly getting on my last nerve.

I'll take 4 Gus Johnsons over that fucking Tim Brando that did the Ducks game last night.

Did you catch his  "He's the leading thievery...guy ... on the team" after Darden made the pick last night?

Congrats sbr.

I had a bit of a suspicion that Arizona was due to get creamed. Very dissapointed at how poorly the offensive line played though.

Thanks. 

As I have said the first Arizona/Oregon game was not a fluke, Arizona was the better team that night.  Going into last night I thought Oregon was the better team, and by a bit.  The 10-14 point game that most everyone, including Vegas, was talking about sounded about right, but I wouldn't have been shocked if Arizona won it.  I had no thought that it would turn out the way it did, mostly because I didn't see that defensive performance coming.  I know their defense has been making strides all year, which is to be expected with a new DC but that was ridiculous.

You mentioned RichRod being outcoached last night, but I'm not entirely sure what else he could have done.  The Arizona O-line couldn't block the Oregon D-line.  The freshman QB made some bad reads but nothing that would have changed the outcome significantly that I can remember.  Once Oregon's offense got their collective heads out of their asses and put up a couple of touchdowns Arizona was way too one dimensional with QBs that just couldn't seem to make the plays.

EDIT:  Thought RichROd was WAY too conservative on some early third and longs, not even trying to convert them.  You can't do that against Oregon because they are probably going to get on track at some point.   Though the last 2 years showed that Arizona could stop Oregon as well as anyone else out there has.

Okay that targeting foul was bs. It was totally incidental.

I agree that targeting was unfortunate.

I wonder if FSU's luck finally runs out against an option offense they're not used to seeing.  The Seminoles have been winning by the skin of their chinny-chin-chins all season long, they're due to run out of luck.

At 29 in a row, it might be more than luck

Okay. I hate FSU and OSU. But seriously, WTF? Why does fooseball suddenly care about criminality and violence?

Were there any justice in the world, FSU, Bama, OSU, and TCU would be the top 4, in order, without doubt.

They certainly took their time, however.  :lol:  But it was going to be tough for GT to maintain those long early drives in the option against a strike-fast offense, and once you can no longer match TD for TD, you know it's over; it's not like GT can go trips right.

Great game, though.
