Thread: 2014 Bowl season

Hybrid View

  1. #1
    I'm super disappointed in Ole Miss and Arizona. They should fire their coaches. Arizona played virtually at home. Disgusting game.

    You see it again and again, the angry teams win the bowl games.

    One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

    The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

    If TCU deserved to be in, who is out? TCU did not deserve to be in at all. Partly because of their stupid 10 team conference (which TCU did not win until they changed the rules towards the end of the season) and partly because their OOC schedule sucked.

    FSU - undefeated.
    Alabama/Oregon - SOS much harder, conference champs.
    Ohio St. - only loss because they lost their Heisman QB. SOS similar, but Ohio St played and won a conference title game.

    TCU - loss not due to injury, weak SOS, no Conf championship game.

    Nice, Arizona. You've disgraced us, after your conference was looking invincible.

    That was great. I'll never understand Ute fans who hate Boise. I have loved them ever since the Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl. Arizona is 10 times more hateable.

    And if I'm an Arizona recruit, I'm super pumped to get chewed out by RichRod every single time I come off the field. Yipee.

    Boise's always angry so it's a great bowl team. Arizona is soft and lost its passion after Oregon slaughtered it. This was all about coaching; all mental.

    3-0 in the fiesta bowl is pretty cool.

    Boise is 3-0 in the fiesta, and they were all great games full of drama. We need the fiesta to sign a special deal to bring the Broncos in every year.

    Thanks. I liked this so much I watched his product review of Combos Pizza Flavor (spoiler alert: 4 out of 5 stars).

    As did I, but Bama Reed is wearing a Kentucky hat in the Combos video. If it turns out that Bama Reed is also a UK basketball fan (and an unforgivable frontrunner) then I will lose a lot of respect for him and, most glaringly, it will seriously undermine his review of Pizza Flavor Combos.

    Please, no more ad hominem attacks. If you want to criticize his review of Pizza flavored combos, please do so on the merits. I doubt you will respond to this because it is hard to argue with the substance of "They could use more pizza flavoring."

    Reportedly this is a parody. Doesn't matter to me -- it's well-done parody!

    Rose Bowl is going to be good. Both teams have shown up to play.

  15. #15
    Great rose bowl so far.

  16. #16
    Ducks end first half w sloppy play. Marriotta w a very uncharacteristic pick.

  17. #17
    And this is where Winston shines - pressure offense situations.

    I think we need to drastically improve our marching band. Florida State's band is putting on a pretty amazing Rose Bowl halftime show. I'd like to see us get ours up to that level.

    I didn't see it but I agree re: our band. Also do something different w the band uniforms. Oregon just wears sweats. Not that casual but also not the weird military look that we and everyone else has. I don't have any suggestions. No. But I would think we have some design students who could put something very cool together.

    Well hopefully next season the SEC is treated more like an over rated conference and less like the greatest conference of all time.

    ESPN still has a huge interest in the SEC... so it will be business as usual. It is nice to see the National Championship earned on the field.

    Wow. That was a terrific game by Ohio State. Never count urban Meyer out.

  23. #23
    In his defense, I too, was stunned to learn that an undefeated Alabama lost to an above average Ohio State.

  24. #24
    What a great game so far. Urban's Buckeyes are not going into this game gently. They are matching thenDucks on offense and playing great defense.

  25. #25
    Oops Ohio state. Ducks w the ball back. I think they go hard and fast here and put 7 up. I expect to see freeman on 1st down.

    So did Ohio state.

    cant stop the run; cant pressure the qb. Bad combination.

    Ohio state is getting tons of pressure on marriotta and not falling for any qb keepers. They are always there waiting for him.

    Great first half by Ohio state.

    OSU dominating the line of scrimmage both ways. It's impressive.

    How ironic can this early drop of the ball possibly be?
