I don't find any must-see games today in College FB. Anyone see it differently?

Anything else grabbing sports enthusiasts today other than Yanks-Halos?

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

I have a 100% prediction!

The Dawgs will absolutely NOT lose today! JK Dave! Next week is gonna be tough, good time for a bye week. Go Gats, Dawgs and ROLL TIDE! Bring on the Mighty Kittens!!!

Ruk,

LOL-Yeah, that's the one thing I have going for me today. 

-Dave

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

Blonde's Gators will beat Miss. State by 60+ points

LOL-Which will hopefully mean they will be so worn out from running  that they won't have anything left next week in the Swamp when my Dawgs show up. 

-Dave

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

Nope,

Gators will win, but it wont be by more then 28.

Has anyone seen this,

SEC suspends refs

 

My Gov. thinks I am dangerous, so be careful

"Television is a freak show" Bernie Goldberg

Yep

Apparently this was the same crew that become so *ahem* involved during the LSU/GA game of the prior week.

I hate it when the refs ruin a game by stupid penalties.  Or an inequal application of penalties.  I have no idea what to do about it....but it is certainly annoying.

GO GATORS!!!!!

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

gc, LOL-I got about 15 emails about it.

Yeah, those are the same zebra goobers that through all those yellow hankees at my Dawgs, which most everybody in the Dawg Nation, including me, feels cost us the game against LSU.

-Dave

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

Well, I wouldnt go that far Dave

  feels cost us the game against LSU.

 But the refs certainly inserted themselves into the fray.

I think Ga problem was on top of the penalty they allowed a 40yrd kick return, and left to much time on the clock.

gc,

LOL-Yeah, I know, but its more comforting to blame it on the zebras than to admit that my Dawgs should have been far enough ahead that a couple of LSU TDs wouldn't have mattered. 

-Dave

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

→ Crooked officials

Next thing you know, the zebras will be cutting the pay of all TARP recipients except for General Electric.

OPPS!  Too late!

LYDSEXICS UNTIE!

Cool,

LOL.

I don't understand the Dawgs

This is a damn good team, lot's of talent, but can't seem to get together. I had high hopes for GA at the start, but they seem to not play as a team, what's up with that? The Dawgs should be at the top of the game in the SEC. I don't know what's up with them. They did good last week, maybe a week off will get them together as a team, we'll see... A good show against the Gats will show a lot. I like both teams, so it will be a good game regardless. Anyway, gotta smash the Mighty Kittens today.

ROLL TIDE!

Good afternoon, Ruk

I'm really happy Bama is on at 3:30 and we're on at 7:30.

Any players/numbers for me to watch today?

Here's to you and your team handing Lane Kiffen another moral victory, LOL!  Good grief, that man needs to learn how to keep his mouth closed.  I feel really bad for the TN fans, not only do they have a crummy team, they have a Clown Coach.

GO GATORS!!!!

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

Been readin' the Bama boards...

 
The Mighty Kitten fans are all "we beat Ga, therefor we're gonna upset the Tide" stuff. Har! Bama will start slow, as usual, then roll, roll, roll! You guys gotta game to play against a good State D. Go Gats! We have a tought sched to go through, see ya in Dec!

ROLL TIDE!

Gary

 

POLITICS: poly (many) + ticks (blood sucking parasites)

 

Ruk, I haven't a clue what the problem is

Neither does anyone else.

On paper, they should be clobbering everybody, but on the field, nothing ever really starts to click.

Yeah, they beat Vandy, but so did Army. 

-Dave

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

Yeah Dave

GA has tons of talent, I don't know what's up with them. They should be stompin' and rompin'. I don't get it. They need to bring it together as a team I guess. I hate to see such good talent go to waste. : ( I think they will give the Gats a good game, should be fun. Go Dawgs! Whoever wins I'll be happy since I like both teams. Sort of.... LOL! :)

ROLL TIDE!

gc... Hey thanks for that

Hey thanks for that link...I know a couple people who will be interested in that news as well.

A little bit late now after that game last week...better late than never I suppose.

I am still steaming about

I am still steaming about my Heels blowing it against the Old Geezer. Next game is this Thursday night in Blacksburg. Another chance to embarrass themselves on national TV.

Nothing really interest me today. FL at Miss State. This could be a got you game. The Gators have 3 hurt on defense and from what I saw last week Timmy is not back at 100% in his running game. The Gators have not won in Starksville since 85. Could they be caught looking ahead to Jawja?

If Bama don't beat the ever loving crap out Lame Kitten and his girls they deserve to be ranked below Texas next week.

BYU-TCU- Who really cares except their fans. Neither teams deserves a shot in the BSC championship game.

Iowa-MSU Another got you game.

As far as baseball goes the collapse of the Dodgers has ended my season. I doubt I watch the world series.

One good thing about the weekend. The Panthers/Bills game will be on CBS. FOX will be showing Steelers/ Viknings at 1 and Atlanta/Dallas at 4. At least there will be something to watch beside the crummy game of the week between the Panthers/Bills.

Got to go. They are having my granddaughter's birthday party at the park by the river at 12. She doesn't turn 3 until next Saturday but her Daddy is leaving for Afganistan on Tuesday.  It looks like he will miss his beloved Yankees making it to the series for the first time in many years.

Wow!

 
I still can't believe NC lost that game! WTF? They are better than that! I guess it goes to show that anything can happen in college ball. Bama should roll over the Mighty Kittens, but you never know! They have nothing to lose.

ROLL TIDE!

Since it's the Sports OT

The end of tailgaiting?

Say it isn't so.

Dave...pop a beer before you read this, okay. I'm worried about your blood pressure.

GO GATORS!!!!!

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

Gee, I don't know, Noel

I rather think watching Bama run all over Tennessee will be kind of fun.

Yippee!!

GA Tech should slaughter VA. They are bad assed!!!

Ruk,

That was a little too close for me. I was on the verge of stroking out on the last play.

Seems all the top tier SEC teams are struggling. 

-Dave

Our elected representatives have failed us.  

Holey moley Dave!

TheVols brought their A game, especially on defense!Wow! And we stll have LSU, AU and MSU to go? We better get our shiiite together!!! I guess a W is aW.Be lucky if we're ranked #2, think TX might jump us! We dodged a bullet!!! Wow!

Roll Tide!

Get it done

Yankees better do it tonight. Don't want to go to game 7 and have to use Sabbathia. Have him ready for game 1 of the World Series.

From what I am hearing

From what I am hearing there may not be a game tonight. If not will CC start in a game tomorrow?

Rained Out?

Yeah, it's a miserable day here. I hope they play tonight and get it done with Pettite. ESPN is reporting that Girardi said Pettite is his game 6 starter regardless if they play tonight

Go Irish! Beat BC! The

Go Irish! Beat BC!

The Rocky Mountain Collegian: Illustrating Idiocy

Yep, last week

almost gave me an  aneurism, they way they blew the clock and the game ends with the Irish holding a timeout? Coach need to get his act together. Tired of these after game interviews where Wies never addresses the obvious reason for defeate.

Or wasting 13 seconds with 22 left for one play. Terrible clock management. That last play would have been a TD, but the guy tripped in the endzone.

Also forgot to mention: Go Rams, beat the Aztecs! Win streak starts TODAY! :-/

Don't be so picky

Nothing "must-see"?  What about UNLV at New Mexico, or Florida International at Arkansas State, or Akron at Syracuse, or Ball State at Eastern Michigan, or Illinois at Purdue, or VMI at Presbyterian, or Western Illinois at Indiana State, or Wofford at Western Carolina, or Edward Waters at Arkansas-Pine Bluff?

Extend the ALCS

I'm pulling for the LA Angels today. Tire out those Yankee pitchers as much as possible.

I'm with you!

zJust walked in from the

Just walked in from the birthday party and I see the Yellow jackets are destroying the Cavaliers just like they did the Heels. Looks like right now Ga Tech is on track to play in the ACC champioship game. The only divisional game they have left is DOOK.  

While at the party the wind started blowing off the river real strong and it started to rain. Must have been an omen because I feel that something is telling me there are going to be a couple upsets in the SEC today. Ole Miss over AK is not an upset.

Gosh Rick

You didn't mention Clem's Son vs. scUM.

3:30 game.

GO GATORS!!!!

 

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

I feel about Clem's son

I feel about Clem's son like you do about the scUM. There is not a more obnoxious bunch of fans than those idiots from around Seneca, SC. It is on the local ABC affliate here so I guess I'll watch the Tide whip on Lame Kitten and his girls. You know a circus is about to breakout in Land Shark Staduim with all those clowns from Clem's son being there.

Crompton intercepted, yet again!

P.S.  It's HOT here today.....I hope they like that.  Switching between games (and the Food Network...Duh Bears vs. Buffalo tailgate cookoff, yummo).

 

 

SEC Football rocks, I'm boycotting NFL

SEC Football, especially the SEC West is my favorite.  Today we have the Ole Miss Rebels vs the Hogs of Arkansas and Alabama's Tide vs Tenn.

I stopped watching NFL Sunday night games a long time ago because I can't stand that idiot Olberwoman.

And starting last week after what happened with Rush, I quick the NFL completely.

I needed to quite the NFL in order to live with myself.

Gosh, I never would have guessed!

WIth a SN like that, LOL.

SEC Rules.

GO GATORS!!!!!

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

I liked that SN the first time I saw it

Tide off to it's typical slow start. 3-zip.

ROLL TIDE!

Knotted at 3.

Damn! The Vols are playin' good! This is gonna get interesting! At least Jones is gettin' some play. If Ingram gets rollin' it can get the score up. Richardson is doin' pretty good so far. The Vols D is lookin' good so far.

ROLL TIDE!

Angels /Yanks

Although it seems that nobody here could give a rats ass re. the ALCS tonight, I'll give it try anyway-

Anyone have an idea if they are going to play or does it look like it will be too damp for SmallRod  ?

bnjohansen

Not sure if they'll get it in. I live on Long Island and it's a miserable, wet day here.

As I posted a little

As I posted a little earlier today the baseball season ended for me when the Dodgers lost. I have watched just a couple of minutes of the Yankees/Angels series.

They won but it wasn't pretty. Not something to brag about either. Good gosh it was Tennesse.  The refs could have called Bama for the celebration but I don't think they wanted another GA/LSU fiasco.

See you in December.  Life is sweet!

I know, Rick

It was kind of a lose-lose.  But I'm glad UM lost at home, ha ha.

Timmy Tebow is looking like Tim the Superman of old, we're not playing well as a team (yet)....but it gladdens my heart to see Timmy be Timmy.

GO GATORS!!!!!

I hope he fails, too.

 

 

Blonde

Florida is in the same boat as Texas, in that they haven't seemed to put it all together yet. 

Colt's main problems are the lack of a ground game, (they found one tonight, but against Mizzou), and young receivers outside of Shipley. 

That said, they did hold OU's running game to -16 yards, so the defense will keep them in any game. Whoever wins between Fla-Bama will have a tough task against UT, and vice versa.

Alabama-Tennessee

Turned into one. One blocked field goal attempt away. Vols have a much better team than their record indicates. 

"If the man, with the power, can't keep it under control...some heads are gonna roll." -Judas Priest

Well let's just see how

Well let's just see how they screw the Horns again this year.  East Coast writers, you can't live with 'em and you can't...nevermind.  Looks like those Horn Frogs are right on track too.  I know damn good and well the Lizards or the Red Tide don't want to see another Mountain West team again.

Hook 'Em!!

Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum

}:-!!!

CR, I'm right with you. Texas has some time to figure things out on the offense, and the defense is as good as I've ever seen. Muschamp is earning his bones with every play. 

We got screwed last year, but that's the way the BCS goes. Playoffs man, we need playoffs!!! If they can find time for a 64 team round robin for basketball, certainly they can let the top eight battle it out in football. Use the existing bowl games as rounds. 

Nothing to lose and everything to gain.
