not everyone is the perfect person in the world. everyone does. kills people. murders people. steals from you. steals from me. whatever.
blah blah I hate car commercials.
That Michael Oher movie will probably be terrible if you just go by the trailer.

PSU commercials are so much better than Virginia Tech's
They’ve got classical music, they show all the awesome accomplishments of VT.
Yeah? WELL I WILL BE THERE! TURN TO ME JUST BELIEVE

VaTech will probably lose
Because of the law that all ACC champions must have at least 4 losses

Looks like a crowded room.
I just wanted to say I disagree with your assessment of the Michael Oher movie.
JMO, but it looks like a chick flick disguised as a football film to me
Kinda seems like it’s less about Oher and more about Julia Roberts

I'll play your little game.
My friend is the president of the ECU alumni group, or some crap like that. Go Pirates, I guess.

But then you remember that it’s ECU. jECU, you could say.

Watch them play crappy ACC teams
Seriously. The only thing worse than an ACC game is seeing an ACC game live.

Incorrect.
Worse would be ACC season tix, and being forced to use them.
Perfect waste of a generic weeknight.

Saturday night football:
Consisting of either Cincy or an iffy OU team and a crappy Nebraska team. WOO!

Man, cfb has been damn mediocre this year

Probably Alabama….they win 10-6

Another exciting SEC DEFENSIVE SHOWDOWN!!!!
Alabama by 10. Corrupt SEC refs help their cause.

their defenses are so fast
How could Nixon know so little about Watergate and so much about football ?
too fast for the refs to pay attention

Is Girardi trying to be the next Tebow?
How could Nixon know so little about Watergate and so much about football ?
Are Pryor and Clark really that different?
Both wanted revenge against a team. Both failed. Miserably.
Both have great “athleticism” according to announcers. This is because announcers don’t want to say “He’s fast because he’s a black guy.”
Both are totally from different states than the state they’re playing in or whatever.
Both totally stare down their receivers.

If Al Golden goes to bowl games the next 2 years
what is the likelihood he becomes our next coach?

OK
IF he becomes our next coach, how big (1-10) will the retarded public outcry be that we didn’t hire a bigger “name”

thanks for playing my game

what are you talking about
this is exciting! It’s C-USA football!

I think our game will easily top the other 3:30 game
This LSU-Bama game will be horrible. LSU is terrible and anyone who mocks Iowa for boring football hasn’t watched Bama.

blocking a last second field goal to beat the fighting lane kiffins isn't exciting?

Perhaps, but look at how they got to that point
12 points against Tennessee. LOLZ

Hello?
Blocking 2 last second field goals to beat the fighting Mark Farleys isn’t exciting squared?
Deus nobiscum, quis contra?
block
62 who blocked it barely got off the ground.

Better yet..
He got away with “ripping his helmet off”. When Georgia played undefeated LSU, the corrupt SEC refs would call that a 15 yarder, but not when the penalty could go against the undefeated SEC team.

That's
a really tough call. Both teams are more than capable of losing.
Purdue would be awesome
but the way they got dominated by Wiscy last week, and lost me 1pt on my Pick ’em, I have no faith in them to get it done.
But then again, if scUM can lose to the worst team in the B10 in Illinois, Purdue has a chance I guess.
Hey
Guess I’m late to this really lame ACC, C-USA party.
The best part about this is trying to keep a straight face as my coworker brags about VT playing primetime football…on Thursdays. He actually thinks it’s a respectable, good idea!
Luring recruits with my new "Posting HD" scheme since '08.
Believe it or not
I have attended a game in this stadium. Pitt vs. ECU in 1991, I was 17 and my dad took me down to visit an uncle who lives in N. Carolina. Alex Van Pelt was the QB and Paul Hackett the coach. They lost to ECU something like 28-24.
You didn't need to add "They lost"
That was a given. God, Pitt was terrible in the nineties. They once gave up 70 points to Ohio State that decade.

It's funny you mention that
because I was at a game where Butler By’not’e ran back the opening kickoff for a TD for Ohio State. I believe that game was during the second Johnny Majors era. The teams with Van Pelt were at least generally entertaining if not always successful, under Majors, they didn’t even compete.
Hell, I'M pumped
I’m glad to see them doing well, they’re bowl elligible, and STILL undefeated in conference play (who would have imagined this a few years ago!) They’re currently on track for a MAC championship game against Central Michigan if they keep on pace:
EAST
Temple: 7-2 (5-0)
Ohio: 6-3 (4-1)
Kent State: 5-4 (4-1)
Bowling Green: 4-5 (3-2)
Buffalo: 3-6 (1-4)
Miami (OH): 1-9 (1-5)
Akron: 1-7 (0-4)
WEST
Central Michigan 7-2 (5-0)
Northern Illinois: 6-3 (4-1)
Western Michigan: 4-5 (3-3)
Toledo: 4-5 (2-3)
Ball State: 1-8 (1-4)
Eastern Michigan : 0-9 (0-5)
