I hate the Big 12
Throw a dumpoff pass, break a poor tackle attempt, and it’s all awesome cause omg big 12 offensive skills.
And Musburger is totally faking his excited voice.
I can’t watch that crap. I’ll watch Iowa-Wiscy

i sometimes don't know what is worse
SEC love or BIG12 love. makes me gag either way.
"They say in Happy Valley that if God wasn’t a Penn State fan, why is the sky blue and white?" Fortt said. "Who am I to argue with God?"
Both are annoying
SEC teams are too busy trying to lay out the other guy that they miss the tackle, Big 12 just doesn’t like to tackle. The only real difference is that Big 12 throws the ball more.
This is very true
And I still believe a smart defensive coach like Saban could dominate in the Big 12.

it's all offense
it’s the big12
"They say in Happy Valley that if God wasn’t a Penn State fan, why is the sky blue and white?" Fortt said. "Who am I to argue with God?"
define "tackle"
if you mean “hurl your body towards the legs of the man with the ball”, then yes, they “tackle”…
"In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."
I'm only watching it during commercial breaks
It’s just such shit. I like actual football, not this nonsense.

Thats SEC tackling
It literally looks like the defenders are trying to pull flags off the other guy. All I see them doing is grabbing jerseys.
Doesn;t the big12
play good defensive basketball?? how many football games are higher scoring than bball?
I don't know about you guys, but I am friggen PUMPED for South Carolina-Bama
No, seriously

Does anyone else hate Beliema as much as I do
Especially after those kickoff shenanigans back in 07?
I despise him, and yet hope he hangs on
His incompetence is amusing.

Oh definitely
He brought a decent team down to almost laughable. I just want to punch him in the face when I see him.
OOOH
fumble texas!!! Sooner recover

Didn’t look like that bad of a hit. Makes me wonder if he should’ve been in there playing in the first place.
Luring recruits with my new "Posting HD" scheme since '08.
yeah but he landed all of his weight
and the sackers weight on top of that shoulder…

Someone get the grief counselors ready
because “depression has to be taking over on that Oklahoma sideline” according to musburger. This is getting annoying quickly.
i'm just trying to ignore him

i'm kinda rooting for OSU
it hurts…but i want them to be at a good ranking when we play/beat them
but i won’t be sad if they lose.

…those darn buckeyes got to me a lil bit when i was out there…it’s gonna take some time to completely remove all those ties
"They say in Happy Valley that if God wasn’t a Penn State fan, why is the sky blue and white?" Fortt said. "Who am I to argue with God?"
Should I enjoy the fact that they will probably show the hit on Bradford about 100 times?
Or is this going to become the Tim Tebow injury saga 2.0? If so, I’m going to block ESPN for the next week or so.
it'll depend on if he comes back to the game or not.
if he does, they’ll play it for 24 hours but thank god for NFL
if he doesn’t…ugh we’ll never hear the end of it.

Totally surreal in happy valley
Nobody is here. Currently in red lot next to stadium. 1/3 full. Tickets for $10. Never seen this few people here in 30 years.

People are tailgating.
We are, at least. Already got the “do you know how much I paid for this parking spot?” speech from two old guys. Told them to suck it.
Weather is fine. Very slight drizzle.

I can't take Oklahoma seriously
I can’t take them seriously when their best play is a sweep pass to Murray. Friggen Jimmy Clausen as a frosh could do that.
