"The SEC just rescinded their offer to Texas A&M"

The number 8 team in the country lost to the number 7 team in the country by 1 point. Isn't that what's supposed to happen?

The sad thing is that A&M's standing will go down, but it really shouldn't.

9/24/2011 9:15:59 PM

its not sad. you lose you go down.

its the 3rd game of the year, the cream still has time to rise to the top.

and LSU is good, but not #2 good.

Not for a Southeastern Conference team versus a Big XII team. SEC! SEC! SEC!

It has to go down, or you'll have people wanting a Michigan/Ohio State rematch for the national championship

9/24/2011 9:20:15 PM

LOL, those arguments were great on here... until both got assraped in bowl games.

9/24/2011 9:21:24 PM

Due to the placement of the light towers at WV's stadium, ESPN had to bring in bucket lifts to have the camera above the field.

9/24/2011 9:24:08 PM

what a play

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:25 PM. Reason : v i know but so what]

9/24/2011 9:24:41 PM

they arent SEC yet... they have about 8 months to get their shit together.

LSU's coaches coach like everyone wishes their coach did




[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:25 PM. Reason : COACH COACH COACH]

9/24/2011 9:24:47 PM

Was that really shocking? You could sense play action a mile away there.

Les Miles is one of the gutsiest, and perhaps dumb, coaches in the country. But it works for him 90% of the time somehow.

9/24/2011 9:25:13 PM

ESPN sucks Miles dick so hard

9/24/2011 9:25:36 PM

god damn that was a great catch, to go up and get that in stride. man.

9/24/2011 9:26:09 PM

^^ god dammit that is the most annoying thing when it comes to talking sports, even worse than "the refs were out to get us!"

When you have the best athletes on the field 99% of the time, it makes you look a lot smarter than you are.

9/24/2011 9:27:34 PM

les miles has been one of the most successful coaches in the country for the last 7 years. what do you want them to say about him?

9/24/2011 9:28:04 PM

dude just broke his arm, but oh well, he made the stop! SEC! even arm tackles work against non-SEC teams!

9/24/2011 9:28:29 PM

I honestly can't tell if simonn is trolling about the SEC trying to mock people or legitimately impressed with rather ordinary plays. I haven't even been drinking today...

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:30 PM. Reason : for the record, i think the big xii is better this year]

9/24/2011 9:29:12 PM

ok nm i guess it wasnt a broken arm, he fucked up his neck

9/24/2011 9:30:25 PM

Head meet elbow. His neck acted like a shock absorber there.

9/24/2011 9:31:08 PM

his arms looked like Jahvid Best when he got fucked up

9/24/2011 9:31:29 PM

NyM410 always thinks some other conference is better, until hes proved wrong by the end of the year, then he forgets about it and picks another conference to be "better" at the start of next year. Its like its too obvious or cliche just to say the SEC is the best. Its like saying some other Michael Jackson album is better just because everyone says Thriller is the best

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:33 PM. Reason : d]

9/24/2011 9:32:27 PM

Not really. I think I've said the SEC was best pretty much every year the last 10 years. Though, again, last year the Big XII was right there.

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:33 PM. Reason : lol, this decade is a year old.. better wording]

9/24/2011 9:35:52 PM

^^ aha, I actually do believe that, but lets ignore that for now

9/24/2011 9:36:29 PM

I dont think the SEC is a spectacular conference Offensively. They have really stout defenses that keep them in games and they put up just enough to roll.

Dont get me wrong they have decent offenses and not some gimmick ala Oregon.

9/24/2011 9:36:44 PM

Punter is by far the MVP today.

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:38 PM. Reason : wvu actually has the same offensive yards]

9/24/2011 9:37:32 PM

every now and then when people think "football is about offense and defense"

LSU balls the fuck out with their punt coverage

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:38 PM. Reason : ^]

9/24/2011 9:37:52 PM

Anyone paying attention to Robert Griffin III?

9/24/2011 9:40:46 PM

He's lighting up Rice tonight

9/24/2011 9:41:54 PM

He's no Russell Wilson I

9/24/2011 9:47:09 PM

damn, that should put this one just out of reach.


[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:49 PM. Reason : assuming LSU walks away with a TD here, at least...]

9/24/2011 9:47:22 PM

that dude is amazing

9/24/2011 9:47:49 PM

Tip drill for 1 please.

9/24/2011 9:47:53 PM

these nfl defenses are just not fair. bama and usc are similar.

9/24/2011 9:48:33 PM

garcia pulls another garcia

9/24/2011 9:48:43 PM

so chris brown made a big tip-pick

9/24/2011 9:49:28 PM

damn, I really might have to go to the Bama/LSU game... its going to be epic (and I'm not using that word as an overdone internet phrase)

9/24/2011 9:49:42 PM

ill meet you down there and try to slip a fifty to one of the gatekeepers for admission

9/24/2011 9:51:09 PM

SEC chant in Morgantown!

^^ hopefully OU loses so it'll be 1-2... but they've both had better teams in the last 5-6 years than their respective teams this year.

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:52 PM. Reason : x]

9/24/2011 9:51:25 PM

^^ I got tickets lined up fool

^ is there really? my feed fucked up. I dont know, Bama's defense is loaded. Just completely fucking loaded.



Vandy has looked really really good, for Vandy. Can definitely tell their new coach is busting his ass. Look for them to beat Kentucky at least

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:53 PM. Reason : d]

Why the fuck is Musberger talking about Jefferson like he is some victim? Fuck that piece of shit.

9/24/2011 9:53:55 PM

Lol minnesota has now lost to new mexico state and north dakota state this year

9/24/2011 9:56:00 PM

did Vinatieri go to ND St or SD St?

9/24/2011 9:56:37 PM

ouch.... I almost took Minn today, was only -6 I think.

I have won a ton of cabbage today with UGA, SMU, GT, Vandy Under, Florida, and hopefully LSU

[Edited on September 24, 2011 at 9:57 PM. Reason : d]

9/24/2011 9:57:35 PM

And apparently Indiana is getting smoked by 0-3 North Texas (who, for some reason, always turned in to a powerhouse in the NCAA games).

9/24/2011 9:57:47 PM

oh shit put on miss state/la tech

white dude just made a sick catch

tie game 3 mins left espnu

"There's few things in life more satisfying to me than taking Syracuse and turning them into a perennial national champion while also crushing the soul of North Texas football...and this is why I am the way I am. At the forefront of my hatred is North Texas. In reality, if the Mean Green ever made it to the Rose Bowl and defeated USC to end the season ranked #2 in the nation, I would consider it a victory for college football. In the video game, this happens every season and its slowly driving me insane. I've done many dynasties, not just with the 2007 version of the game but also with the 2006 version and for some reason, at some point North Texas becomes a college football powerhouse the likes of which makes Alabama and Michigan tremble. They have multiple Heisman winners, they've won the Sun Belt fifteen times in a row and they go undefeated more often than not. I've always figured that the CEO of EA Sports went to North Texas or perhaps the programmers are from the greater-Denton area. I came across a message board where others plagued by the same North Texas dilemma think that it has to do with the game's inherent recruiting flaw that makes all teams from California, Florida and Texas become good (which explains why Cal, USC, Texas, Texas A&M, Miami, Florida are always in the hunt for the title and North Texas, Florida Atlantic and Fresno State are always in the Top 25 and flirting with undefeated seasons). I decided to keep track of things for a few seasons, see if it was just me getting hot and bothered over nothing or if this was an epidemic ripping apart my quaint 1 a.m. existence. Over the course of six seasons, North Texas finished in the Top 5 three times, went to five BCS bowls and went undefeated twice. I knew what needed to be done. Up until now I had only played the game to benefit teams. To turn mediocre programs in powerhouses. I was God. And as such, if I had the power to give success, I also had the power to take it. I took over at head coach at the University of North Texas. My reign only lasted two seasons before my contract was not renewed but in that time I made amazing strides. Worst recruiting class in the country both times, no conference titles and a combined record of 6-16. I had ruined North Texas football. And it felt good. I don’t know exactly what the point of all this is except to admit to the world that I am an uber-dork. Perhaps there are others out there plagued by the North Texas Mean Green and this will provide some sense of comfort for them. And perhaps its a statement of hope that the 2008 version of the game will be free from ridiculous team powerhouses rising from the Sun Belt Conference. But I should let you know that my glory was short lived. As soon as I relegated North Texas from the picture, Rice went undefeated, won the Sugar Bowl and finished #3 in the nation. Owls, thy name is enemy."
