Any correlation between this image and Penn State's hopes
for a certain college football game this afternoon are purely coincidental.
Here's a thread to discuss the games. Enjoy.

The blonde is hot. The brunette, while having a nice bod, should consider braces, a new hair stylist and a board certified cosmetic surgeon.

Upon closer inspection
It looks like those are bruises in there. Does that connote a certain amount of intensity in the horizontal mambo?

morning everyone
So how are we all cheering for today?
I haven’t decided if i want USC or OrSU in the rose bowl yet. I think i’m going to cheering for OrSU.
by platnumkid on Nov 29, 2008 10:50 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
I think it's obvious:
Oklahoma State over Oklahoma (not likely now that I saw a stat that this is the most lopsided of all the rivalry games; OU leads by like 79-16 or something ridiculous like that)
Auburn over Alabama
Florida State over Florida
Notre Dame over USC (Yeah, like that’s going to happen. Weiss is done. Guess you ain’t so hot when you ain’t got Tom Brady and you’re not taping the other teams practices and stealing plays).
I’m still holding out hope for playing January 8. I know I sound like a spoiled little child, and I definitely don’t want to go back to the dark years, but a Big Ten title doesn’t impress me as much as a national championship. I grew up rooting to be #1, not going to the Rose Bowl.
I really don’t know what to think of playing USC or Oregon State again. On the one hand, we should have an easier time with the Beavers, and to finish 12-1 and a top 5 finish would be just great. On the other hand, it would be great to play USC and hand them their asses. USC is good, but they ain’t that fucking great. Who have they beaten that’s of any consequence. Remember, the Fuckeyes were rotating QB’s and didn’t have Beanie Wells.

I agree with you
about cheering for us getting to the Nation Title. As for the Rose Bowl i’ll be cheering for OrSU. But not cuz it’ll be an easy win for us. I’ll be cheering for them cuz of how it will hopefully set up next year. With them forcing those Jerks from Columbus to play in the Cap1 bowl and bumping all the big 10 teams down a level we can score a really good bowl record and really turn the tide on this “the big 10 is down” talk.
by platnumkid on Nov 29, 2008 11:20 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
The fact is,
an OrSU / PSU rematch is the biggest lose / lose for us since the F$U Orange Bowl. If we smoke them again, so what? If we win close, it appears we’ve taken a step back. If we get clipped, we suck, and the Big 10 blows. Those are the options, folks.
We absolutely need USC. Critically. Honestly, I don’t give a damn about any other Big Televen bowl results this year; those guys are on their own. I want us to bitch slap a national media darling full of 10-star recruits, and I want to do it in their own backyard with a national audience. I want to see them shoved around, jacked up, and run over. I want them crushed moving across the middle, growing alligator arms by the 2nd quarter, and running out of bounds to avoid yet another thunderous hit. I want utter domination. I want Tennessee redux. If we can’t win the MNC, I want to rain abject humiliation on these Golden Boy panty-girdles and their metrosexual coach.
I guess I want it all.
I like OrSU. They seem like nice folks. I want them to do well – just not at our expense. Quizz has 3 more years to go all Heisman on people in the Rose Bowl, while we’re busy playing for the MNC.
I want USC.

I'm half with you half not
First off, the Orange Bowl was a win. A big, huge-ass win. A win-win if you will. Pennsylvania descended on and overtook southern florida. We beat Bobby Bowden. We out-fanned the floridians in their own state. And we finished 12-1. A beautiful end to a beautiful season. Being there made it extra fun for me.
But I also like your take on douching the douchey trojans. If we play like we didn’t against Iowa and Indiana, the scenario you describe is viable. If we play like we did, well, it’d be a long day of national disrespect.
Pete, are you in the market for traveling to the Rose Bowl?

by jtothep on Nov 29, 2008 1:06 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Don't get wrong
The Orange Bowl was a nice win, especially as it came at Bowden’s expense. But coaching matchup aside, who among us was thrilled when F$U sorta backed into the ACC title and became our opponent? As they were ranked in the low 20’s, there was no way to impress anyone with less than a 50 point blowout, let alone a 3 OT squeaker. It wasn’t even a rematch with a team we already throttled. Yes, it was exciting to watch (mostly for PSU / F$U), but I don’t remember anyone feeling really good about it beforehand, except for the beating Bobby angle. While we did get a win, we didn’t get the respect we would have from beating another Top 5 team.
Another unbeaten season snatched away on a last second play sucks. This time I want the opportunity to play a statement game, which the Orange Bowl was not. I’d like nothing better than to be a 10 point dog, and win by 28. THAT is making a statement. Especially against the SoCal Condoms.
I want shock and awe. OrSU can’t provide that opportunity.

Good morning BSDers
I’ve been reading RUTS and BSD for the past couple years but haven’t commented. I wanted my first post though to say thank you to all of you guys who work so hard on this site. I’m not sure how else I would piss away my lunch breaks at work. Its a great site with great content.
Now to the OrSU v. Oregon – I know we all met some really cool OrSU fans when they came to happy valley and I think that’s cool. But in all honesty they are in the Pac-10 and I could care less about them this year or for years in the future. I’m sure there are nice people that root for Arizona too and I care equally less about them. I don’t understand how any Penn Stater isn’t rooting their butt off for Oregon tonight. USC would be the biggest test this PSU team could possibly face outside of maybe Florida. The fact that they don’t want to play us makes me want them even more. Maybe I’m crazy, but a new years day bowl against media darling USC just seems a lot more fun.
by NittanyAlum02 on Nov 29, 2008 11:07 AM EST reply actions 0 recs
You make a good point
Welcome to commentingLand. Best case I’ve heard yet for wanting to play USC: ‘biggest test’ we could possibly face. I like that perspective, vs, the national respect card. We’ve got a good team, had a good season, finished very strong, and we should want an opportunity to face the best test we can.
I buy that argument.

You’ve got to laugh at a straightfaced Lee Corso deadpanning “Closer than the experts think!” when he’s predicting games. He is the expert! Clown or no, the guy clearly gets the absurdity in college football and the fact that he eggs it on is awesome.

Gameday continues to be possibly the best pregame show for any sport. Corso plays his role (intentionally or not) perfectly, Herbstreit is a great football mind (how many insane upsets has he picked this year?) and Fowler leads the parade quite well. That show makes me happy to be a college football fan.

Agreed
Desmond Howard leaves a little bit to be desired (tangent: it is hilarious that an Ohio State grad thoroughly out-analyzes a Michigan grad on a weekly basis on national television) but it is solid. Honestly, when they had Lebron James guest star, he was smart and hilarious and my opinion of the guy skyrocketed. I’d make him a regular contributor.

Mostly confirms my opinion
I can see an overstatement of the funny opinion — he was definitely more to the point. Fuzzy memories that I’m going to blame on alcohol. Solid analysis of a variety of games though. Also, we get a bonus “Closer than the experts think!” around 6:15 in the video!
by gumbercules on Nov 29, 2008 1:26 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
LOL!
Mostly refutes your opinion, in my opinion.
- went with no notes, and sounded like it
- picked Michigan over MSU, with no supportive reasoning (‘yeah, I know, but I’ma take Michigan, I’ma take Michigan’) {MSU 35-21}
- picked Ga Tech over UVA, citing Tech’s great receivers, which Herbie quickly scoffed at {UVA 24-17; Tech 100 yds passing}
- picked Fla State over VaTech (I’ma take florida state, I like they defense; they young, they active, I’ma take florida state) {FSU 30-20)
- picked Arizona over USC (‘well, I’ma go with the fortteyyfforty 41% amurrica’s givin; I’ma go with Arizona) {USC 17-10}
- picked LSU over UGA (‘man, I’ma go wif LSU, umm…that, I think that defensive line is, is unbelievable..but they’re very quick; I think Knowshon Moreno’s gonna get, he’s gonna get a lot of yards, but I think that defense is too quick, too fast) {UGA 52-38}
ok, I’m getting tired….anyway, you get the gist. I definitely take exception with both ‘smart’ and ‘solid analysis of a variety of games’ and didn’t think he was particularly funny either. Gumbercules, on the other hand—now he’s funny!

Hey, everybody gets an opinion
To be fair, nobody expected the USC game to even be close so it was a ballsy pick, and I think secretly that every Ohio State fan is rooting for Michigan just so the nation pays attention to their rivalry game. And no notes? That’s impressive that he didn’t just freeze out there if it’s true. Anyway, I’m just a little tired of shots of Desmond Howard chatting on his computer and grinning and saying inane things to me.

Trying to figure out which of the 4 games on right now is going to be the “least” boring. I mean, I know USC-Clemson is usually good for one fight, but they usually wait until the end of the game for that one.
Other than that, we’re looking at UVA-VTech, Cincy-‘Cuse, and UGA-GTech. I’ll probably stick mostly to the UGA-GTech game in the hopes that an ACC team can blow yet another hole in an omg essss eeeee seeee team. (Thankfully, LSU has already been eaten by it’s own conference.)

Do these announcers (or the UGA fans) understand how intentional grounding works? Stafford wasn’t out of the pocket; Nesbitt was. My other issue with Stafford’s throw is that he never looked back towards the receiver – just chucked it out of bounds blindly (with a receiver close to the area).

The preseason #1 ranked SEC team is getting beat by the triple option offense of an ACC team. And a middle of the road ACC team is taking a middle of the road SEC team behind the woodshed.
I expect to read some articles on Monday telling us how bad the SEC is this year. But I suspect I won’t.

Time for some good games
The big 10 loses out on weekends like this, it would be exciting if we could have a championship game (not necessarily good, just exciting). We could add Pitt or ND and break into 2 divisions with Michigan/ND in one and OSU/PSU in another. It would bring us respect, if we were going into a championship game this weekend it could potentially have pushed us towards the top 2 if we win. Just an interesting thought.

Assuming everything else was actually going to happen
They’d put PSU/ND and OSU/Michigan in the divisions, I would imagine
But if ND joined anything, it’d probably be the Big East- that’s what they are in other sports, and they could probably win the thing every year, even when they’re this bad.

That would prohibit them from playing each other in the championship game and we all know (whether we admit it or not) that they are still the darlings of the big ten.

I was listening to Rivals Radio on the way to work and they were debating if the Big Ten should play a championship game. Some moron actually said we shouldn’t because it’s not fair to make OSU and Michigan play their traditional rivalry game at the end of the year and then make them have to play again the following week. As if they are the only two teams that would ever qualify for the championship game. Unreal.

All things considered
This first round of games hasn’t been completely horrible. The two games remaining have turned into some seriously good football battles. UGA-GTech has been extremely fun to watch in the second half. And this KU-Mizzou battle gets better and better every possession. (Mostly thanks due to the fact that both teams plays defense as well as any other Big 12 team…)
by IcersGuy on Nov 29, 2008 3:41 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Fun? Maybe
I feel like I’m watching a playstation game in this GA-GT game. Neither one of these defenses can stop anything. It kind of takes something away for me.

Not necessarily the best all-around performances (apparently defense is more overrated around the nation than we realize), but they’ve been fun to watch where every possession has some significance.

I'm in Michigan
I was debating just staying back in PA after the MSU game, but didn’t really want to take the time away from lab and the girl and the dog. Went with the girl to her grandparent’s cabin they have up around Cadillac, Michigan. This is an old-school log cabin with no running water, wood stoves and fireplaces for heat, but they do at least have electricity for lights & TV (only to watch Thanksgiving football, of course, especially since it is the only day of the year Lions fans can get excited about football). This year was much better than last year, when at night I was bundled in all my winter clothes, plus a sleeping bag, plus a few comforters, but unfortunately couldn’t cover my face (I like to breathe) and damn that was cold.
There are like 20 people that go there (well actually her parent’s cousins are there the previous night, and then her family is there for Thanksgiving night.) Mid-day on Thanksgiving Day they have a family vs family football game, which was pretty fun (I threw our team’s only TD, but also slipped in the snow on defense to give them their only TD. I also threw a beatiful pass that would have scored a TD and won the game on the last play of the game, but it got batted down…by a teenaged girl :-P )
I think this is my first live gameday thread I’ve been able to participate in all year! though I am sad there’s no PSU football game for me to go to :’(
how was warm SoCal for the holiday?

by TheMightyErik on Nov 29, 2008 4:57 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
well the game didn't feature a lot of rushing
which was kinda frustrating on one drive where we got to the “1 yard line” on our first play (each “drive” is just a set of 4 downs). I would have just run it in, but it is 2-hand touch (there are a bunch of little kids that play too), so that makes it a bit tougher. The other thing that made rushing tough for us (the other team actually did it a couple times) was that the teams were something like 15 people on their side to 7 on ours, so we only really ever had 2 people blocking their D-line that usually had about 7-10 people stacked in it.
Of course it wasn’t quite as uneven as it sounds, since there were about the same number of “adults” on both sides.

Florida is the most boring top 5 team to watch, for that reason. I think Penn State has as much team speed as they do and do more with it. Seems like everything is going to be either a Tebow Smash, something with Harvin or hitting their tight end.
I seriously think PSU’s D matches up well with them. And I think that Bama can limit them to 13 points.

I am sick to my fucking stomach.
I was holding out hope that we could get to Miami, but with no upsets of any consequence today, the dream is over. I’m sorry, but the Rose Bowl is just another bowl. I guess if I sit back and think about the Lions not playing on New Year’s Day that that might snap me out of it. But damn, I like seeing a #1 in front of Penn State.
Now I’m pissed. At first I was ambivalent, but now I want Oregon State to lose. I want to play USC and jack them the fuck up all over the place. On their field.
And no, I haven’t been drinking all day. But I’m getting ready to start.

Rose Bowl.......
Is slowly becoming not just another bowl. I know you probably know this already, but the rest of the country is slowly becoming convinced that the Rose Bowl is a major player in there not being a playoff. Consquently, a lot of people could care less what happens in it.
I would love to see us play USC.

you are absolutely correct
That’s why the biggest threat a playoff system could come with is to leave out the Rose Bowl and the teams in it. That would force the Pac and Big 10 to get on the Rose Bowl to make a playoff a reality

heh, wouldn't that be great
the all the conferences (even non-BCS conferences) all agree to a new playoff format, and agree to allow the Big 10 and Pac 10 to keep their precious “granddaddy” bowl. See which game gets more viewers then. Heck, I’d be impressed if the Rose Bowl would even beat the semi-finals after a few years.

I'm confused..
what would we gain in beating OrSU again. To me it seems like a no win situation. if we win no one will care cus we already killed them once. If we lose everyone will say that we werent as good as people thought. A shot at USC would be a true marquee game and give us a chance to really prove ourselves to all the haters. Am i missing something here?
by MeetMeAtTheCorner on Nov 29, 2008 7:32 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
nope, you summed it up pretty well
Only thing we like OrSt for is that their fans seem like a decent bunch, and it is nice seeing a non-perreninal power make it to these games every now and then…we just wish it wasn’t against us.
Too bad we can’t “give up” our Big-10 championship tiebreaker so that we could then take an at-large and face USC if it comes down to that.

Depends on how the media wants to run with it
I think it’s been well documented that this Beaver team is playing much better than week 2. There’s also some stats out there how, in recent bowl game history, a rematch has been won more by the regular season loser. At least I think that’s what the stat was…
Also, there seems to be a lot of rumblings out of USC that a Rose Bowl appearance is a lose-lose for them. Which, even if we beat them, people can pull the “Well, USC just didn’t care so it wasn’t the real USC” card. Sure, we can tout a win over a top program, but will the media really decide to see it the same way? Just some food for thought…

Doesn't really matter
Thanks to F$U and Auburn rolling over today the OMG ESS EEE CEE has a clear path to the title game against a Big 12 team and no one will give two shits about us beating USC as they have gotten zero run this year, like us. Who will really remember us beating a USC team? Or what if we go and lose or , even worse, we get hammered. You think we get no respect now? It’s a lose lose situation this year. Screw USC. I want an SEC or Big 12 team.

I didn’t get to see any of the games in Philly. But from what I’ve read and seen Talor Battle is sensational. The kid is a star plain and simple. Stanley Pringle has really heated up too, and when those two guys are on we can play with anyone. Those two guys are so good at pushing the tempo. They can slash to the hoop and create so much off of it. They are both good at finishing the drive, or they pop a short range jumper. They can dish off to a teammate. And they are both deadly from the arc. They create so many problems for other teams and they give us a ton of flexibility to work with.
What bothers me is our depth. We are basically playing with six or seven guys every night. As a result, Battle is playing a ton of minutes. We can’t be strong late in the season if he’s having to log 40 minutes every night. The rest of the offense needs a guy the can depend on to carry them when Battle is on the bench. Right now they look totally lost when he’s not out there. We desperately need Jeff Brooks, Cammeron Woodyard, or Chris Babb to start contributing heavily.

right, but we still have to worry about other things
like the sideline collapsing in under itself (even if they weren’t near all those fault lines in SoCal), or it just running away from fear of being stepped on by such a large object

Funny
I hung a necklace made of dried red jalapenos and plastic shamrocks(from some bar at St Patty’s Day last year) and hung them up and “cursed” the Irish last year before the beginning of the season since my favorite drinking partner is a die-hard fan. He made me promise to take it down this year and I did but I never did remove the curse.

Mock BCS predictions
Following the rules posted on FOX Sports and taking some liberal assumptions, my crystal ball shows:
NCG: Florida v. Oklahoma
Rose: Penn State v. USC
Fiesta: Texas v. Ohio State
Sugar: Alabama v. Cincinnati
Orange: Boston College v. Utah
The picking order goes Fiesta, Sugar, Orange this year, but the Orange is required to take BC with their first pick. The first three games are excellent. The last two, meh.

I had to buy Orange bowl tix with my NCG tix
I bet I’ll be able to sell the pair for $10. Who the fuck wants to go to Miami to see Cinnnncinnnnnatttttttti play? And I thought selling $400 worth of tix for $99 bucks last year was bad. I thought there could not be a worse bowl matchup than last year’s KU vs VT game. Can’t wait to see what kind of shitty matchup the OB has this year.

2009 Notre Dame Football Schedule
Sept. 5 NEVADA
Sept. 12 at Michigan
Sept. 19 MICHIGAN STATE
Sept. 26 at Purdue
Oct. 3 WASHINGTON

Oct. 31 vs. Washington State (at San Antonio, Texas)

Navy could beat them… I just don’t see it, though
Pitt can definitely (and probably/might) beat them, but Pitt sucks also
Stanford I could see pulling the “upset” but still doubt it

Pitt, as much as I hate those bastards (see my cheap shot in the Nitt picks thread) they always surprise a couple of teams

Sure losses to MSU, USC, Boston College, Pitt, and UConn.
The only easy wins are Washington and Washington State. Everything else is a tossup. So I’ll say 6-6.
Remember the days when you just knew Notre Dame was going to get a lucky fumble to win a game they shouldn’t have won? Now you just know they will find a way to lose to Syracuse.

how about checking in your luggage
you used to be able to take the case with you as your carry-on (they usually made you gate-check it with a tag), until that whole liquids ban.
I was probably the last person in the world to bring a case of Yuengling as a carry-on, since I did it on a Sunday (flying back from Philly to Michigan), and the “bomb attempt” or whatever it was that led to the liquids band happened midweek (Tuesday if I recall correctly)

by MeetMeAtTheCorner on Nov 29, 2008 9:43 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Sure
If OU wins, there is a 3-way tie for the Big XII South. In that case, the team with the highest BCS rank of the three will go to the Big XII championship game. Probably either Texas or Oklahoma, but it’s too close to tell right now. My guess would be Oklahoma.
If OU loses, TT goes to the Big XII championship game due to their head-to-head win over Texas.

Let’s say the current run of Pac-10 games ends as they currently stand – OrSt lases, USC destroys ND. Now, let’s say UCLA goes all 2007 Stanford on USC next week and pulls the upset. Can someone please decipher the tiebreaker rules of the Pac-10 for this situation? Oregon, OrSt, and USC would all be tied at 6-2 in conference, and in trying to decipher the tiebreakers, I think Oregon State would be back in the Rose Bowl.

Oregon State
The multi-team tiebreaker reaches the point where they compare records against the next highest conference team in the standings, Cal. Oregon lost to Cal, so they are eliminated, and then Oregon State gets the head-to-head nod over USC. Funny that it helps to have a worse loss on your resume.

I ran through this above
The selection order goes Fiesta, Sugar, Orange this year. I’m guessing the Fiesta takes Texas as its traditional Big 12 team, the Sugar takes Alabama as its SEC team, the Orange must take BC. Then they go through again, the Fiesta takes Ohio State, the Sugar takes Cincinnati and the Orange is stuck with Utah.
by gumbercules on Nov 29, 2008 10:47 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I don't think...
Ohio State is the automatic pick for fiesta…..Utah will be ranked higher and would travel just as well to Arizona…

Actually
We’ll probably go with some online service that will ship it for you. I don’t really want to get a hundred T-shirts and have to mail them out.

I dunno if he does that or not...
I will check into it for you… he does something like that for us by sending out orders to our customers and we don’t see the items at all.

78 total points tonight -- big12 defense = nonexistant

NOT TRUE
It’s just a sign of how GOOD the defenses are. Any other team would have allowed 400 points to OU by now.

The Big XII is a joke
This isn’t football. I’ve never seen as much lousy tackling as I’ve seen today.

Didn't you watch the Civil War earlier?
I don’t think a single offensive player in either game got their shirt dirty.

Screw tackling, lets just see who can run back the most kickoffs

So this is what we've learned
The Big XII defenses don’t play defense
The Big XII offenses don’t play defense
The Big XII special teams don’t play defense
Do they teach tackling for any unit down there?

Is there really only one lion per year
Because that would be the toughest job going, my wife and I were arguing and I said there is only one, but she claims there have to be a few.
