NCAA Football, 2014-2015

[MadImmortalMan]

I don't know which band at the Ohio State-Illinois  was playing Immigarnt Song, but it rocked on TV.

The two best bands in the nation. That's always a great game to go to.

I believe we have just seen peak Mississippi for this century. 80 years from now, a Mississippian will reflect on this day:

For every Mississippi boy fourteen years old, not once but whenever he wants it, there is the instant when it's 3rd and 3 at the 20 on that November night in 2014, a crowd is gathered in the Grove, the Black Bear is roaming the sideline and Colonel Reb is nowhere to be seen and Hugh Freeze himself with his Ole Miss visor and his headset in one hand probably and his playsheet in the other looking upon the field for Bo Wallace to give the word and it's all in the balance, it hasn't happened yet, it hasn't even begun yet, it not only hasn't begun yet but there is stll time for it not to begin against that position and those circumstances which made more men than Mathers and Sanders and Treadwell look grave yet it's going to begin, we all know that, we have come too far with too much at stake and that moment doesn't need even a fourteen-year-old boy to think This time. Maybe this time with all this much to lose and all this much to gain: Auburn, the SEC West, the SEC, the National Championship itself to crown with desperate and unbelievable victory the desperate gamble, that wide receiver screen....

Talk about insult to injury.  TONIGHT WE ARE ALL OLE MISS


OK, not really, but that ending really, really sucked ass.

Good old Faulkner

There was a time, not too long ago, when Texas winning in Lubbock at night was a huge accomplishment.  Hard to believe.

The ending worked for me.

I really don't get it...I really thought that hiring a good looking 30 something to coach a football team in west texas was a can't miss strategy.

Things are beginning to fall into place for another iron bowl to decide the fate of humanity.

[Berkut]

Arizona down 17-7 in the 4th. Solomon is finally looking like a freshman.

Things are beginning to fall into place for another iron bowl to decide the fate of humanity Florida State, Oregon, TCU, and Michigan State to be the CFB playoff.

Ok probably not.

yeah I wouldn't have believed it if someone told me Utah would be in driver seat of Pac-12 south.

[alfred russel]

You know, Miami has dismantled Virginia Tech and North Carolina in back to back weeks. FSU has looked...vulnerable is putting it nicely. Miami has a bye before playing FSU in two weeks, while FSU has an opponent they can't look past. The game is in Miami. Not too long ago I wouldn't have said this, but there is reason for hope...

[katmai]

I meant to say wouldn't believe ASU would be in driver seat.

[Berkut]

I would not believe anyone who told me that Arizona would lose a game where their defense dominated and held UCLA to 17 points. That was just bizarre. It wasn't even that normal offensive woes where you cannot get points in the red zone - Arizona never came close to scoring except on the opening drive where they got a bunch of help from Miles Jack.

In a battle of bad teams, Wyoming beat Fresno State late last night 45-17.  Wyoming had a freshman RB run for something like 3248 yards, and finally the ball control power game of the new coach showed promise.

Now if Wyoming can just schedule horrible teams each game they might have another .500 season.
