Open Game Thread :: College Football :: Saturday October 17
This is your Open Game Thread for all things College Football until the Kansas game. A specific Kansas-Colorado thread will pop up an hour prior to kickoff, so be on the lookout for that.
But for now, this is your place to talk football. I will be here for part of the day, so I hope you join me. It'll be fun for sure.

So, normally, I don't get too excited over these big rivalry games...
i.e. tOSU-Mich… but the ones today, OU-UT, USC-ND, have me really fired up and ready to watch them. Should be a GREAT day of CFB today.

Also, I'm stretching my lead
in the Pick ’Em League, too. If Denver would quit putting games on the list that are played 3 hours after he sets the games for the week, I would hardly miss ANY every week. For the record, I would have picked Boise Thursday night. Let that be known. My lead would then be 4 currently.

True. I didn't make any picks until this morning.
Now, I’m 0 for 3 already.

Also, Late Night was EPIC.
We. Are. LOADED. It’s so ridiculous. The 5-on-5 scrimmage was 10 guys who would start on 99% of schools in the country. (Xavier didn’t even start.)
Quick Late Night THoughts
- Travis Releford has improved ALOT.
- One of the twins (forget which one) looks HUGE.
- Xavier is very well put-together.
- Elijah Johnson has HOPS. He floats in the air and hangs there.
- THomas Robinson out-manned Cole for a board or two. He’s gonna be a STUD, from day one.
- Tyshawn Taylor is a real cocky SOB. It’s good to have some swagger (See: U, The), but IMO, he is just TOO cocky. He is GOOD, though.
- Tyrel Reed can FLY for a white boy. For anybody, for that matter.
- Lew Perkins does NOT look good, AT ALL.
- THe renovated Fieldhouse looks very nice.
- The videos for this year will be, once again, EXTREMELY EPIC. 20 minutes straight of Jayhawks in the NBA, B2B2B2B2B Big XII Champs video and “Dream On”.
- Recruit Row got a HUGE ovation as the entered the arena just before the women started their skits. I can’t imagine that not bringing them to chills.
- Fans leave Late Night halfway through the scrimmage early, too. It’s not just the football “fans.” I don’t understand standing outside AFH for two hours (as I did), sitting through two hours of nothing, the women’s skits and scrimmages, the videos and then leaving after ten minutes of the men’s team. Whatever. I yelled at all the people around me leaving, “Hey, I’ll see all you guys at the first half of the next football game!” as the walked out.
So, all that said, I think we should be fairly respectable this year. I hope we blow a couple easy ones in December and one in conference and Bill uses it to fuel them.

I think you're totally right.
As bad as CU is, I’ve been having…. uneasy(?) thoughts about this one all week. They always play us tough. The defense HAS TO dominate against that putrid offense, otherwise we are going to get carved, sliced and diced 6 ways to a whorehouse next week.
There should be alot of Jayhawk fans there today, though, if it’s anything like the basketball games in Boulder.

Meh
Football injuries are a question of “when,” not “if.” And unlike Bradford, Cole still has areas of his game to work on (developing a more diverse low post game, for example)- I wouldn’t say it’s a “sure thing” that he should have gone into the draft.
by KennyGregoryRockThaCradle on Oct 17, 2009 11:30 AM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
When you can be a lottery pick, you should go.
That said, I couldn’t be happier that he is back. Yes, he has things to work on, but he would have still been drafted extremely high.

Well...
Jordan Hill did kind of dominate Cole when we played Zona last year. Then the Raptors and the Bucks are both pretty much set at the center position. The Nets probably take him at 11.
Right now, NBAdraft.net has him going #5 next year. That’s a LOT more guaranteed money.

He’s going higher than 5. Granted this year’s class is much much different than last year’s, but he’s better than Thabeet

United are 1) in the lead again 2) got back Van der Sar today and Hargreaves next month, so that’s like two free transfers coming in and adding to a squad that was already 1st/2nd in the league all year already.

They certainly have a good nucleus of good young players and seasoned veterans. I think this could finally be a WC were they make a deep push and live up to the hype

Arkansas threatening Florida
There is something seriously wrong with the Gator’s offense

I'm here now, losers.
Now you’re all winners.
It's rather ironic that people will actually have to pay money to see Michael Moore's new Anti-Capitalism film, don't you think?

Gator offense seems like it should have so much more to it
but it’s Tebow left, Tebow right…and the kid needs to hold the ball higher up while in the pocket. NFL pass-rushers will strip him left and right.

Their O has no imagination
They slam a HB up the gut or Tebow keeps it. Thats it. So lame.

I think they don’t have any faith in the receivers other than the Tight End
by KennyGregoryRockThaCradle on Oct 17, 2009 3:40 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah Gonzalez or whatever his name is
He is a gamer. You’d think though with the effectiveness Florida and Tebow have running the ball, even average WRs would be able to find some openings downfield with the opposing team stacking 8 guys in the box every play.
Losing Percy “Smmmmmokin!” Harvin I guess was a pretty big loss
by KU Grad 08 on Oct 17, 2009 3:42 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
pretty much...
the Spurrier Gator offense was all razzle-dazzle. This effort is predictable, albeit predictably effective. Case of fumble-itis early on.

Yeah Nebraska could be in trouble this season
Their D is solid, but their O is not doing the team any favors. Lack of a passing attack. I think if we can hit the 30 point mark on them we might take it.

Arkansas' D
Is putting some LICKS on Tebow. It’ll be interesting to see if Tebow has any effects from that concussion.
/Another Florida fumble!
by KennyGregoryRockThaCradle on Oct 17, 2009 3:44 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I was laughing
When Tebow got that 4th down and he started yelling and pumping his fist and going crazy, I thought, how funny would it be if someone fumbled on the next play. And it happened :)
Insanity is just a state of mind.

Why the hell...
Is Penn State/ Minnesota on national television? At least Iowa/Wisconsin both have good records. And why does ABC think New York is Big Ten country? Blerg.

Penn State is huge for NYC ratings
Largest alumni association in the world – littered all over the place.

Exactly. Penn State’s by far the best academics/sports combination anywhere in the northern half of the coast here. I live in MD, but cripes, like anyone gives a damn about college football around here except PSU fans.

Awesome that Ohio State loss
Now we just need Iowa to drop a game or two to ensure no Big10 teams pollute the title game like in recent years (sorry buckeyes, but you didn’t exactly give the nation a ringing endorsement for your conference).

This goes for OU as well, no?
by burntorangehorn on Oct 17, 2009 5:20 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Well, OU lost by a touchdown
In a sloppy, yet fairly competitive 21-14 game or whatever it was.
tOSU on the other hand, there is still a warrant out for the murder job Florida did on them the first time, and LSU smacked em pretty hard the second time. So I’d say tOSU was definitely worse.

Plus OU loses every BCS/big game it ever plays in
So we all knew what was coming :)
by KU Grad 08 on Oct 17, 2009 5:50 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
What I’m saying is that it almost goes without saying that OU is going to lose every BCS bowl game in which they play. I should probably look it up to be sure, but wasn’t the USC beat-down in the championship game over OU the worst in BCS championship history?
by burntorangehorn on Oct 18, 2009 3:58 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I dunno
Florida’s win over Ohio State a few years back was pretty severe… I’d say the two are close for sure.

Wow
I know none of you saw it, but Jahvid Best just had an insane TD run from the Bears 9 yard line. It’ll be in the highlights somewhere. Reversed sides of the field, and was gone.
Insanity is just a state of mind.

Imagine if the Lions can pick him up this year.
Could be a pretty explosive offense for years to come.

Also a swiss cheese defense though.

So the "classiest fans in college football"
Booing their team….

Yeah. TBF though,
Nebraska fans clapped for us when we beat them, so I dunno. I’m still a little less harsh on them.
Did you see Pelini turn around and glare back at the crowd when he heard the boo? Priceless.

Yeah I can't blame them I guess
I’d boo if my team’s offense blew that bad

Seriously
Notre Dame announcers are TERRIBLE. JUST TERRIBLE. They have no idea what’s going on at all.

It just took them 10 minutes
To figure out that if there’s an intentional grounding penalty, it’s not a fumble.

YES!
Suck it, Notre Dame. Suck it, and keep on sucking it.
