giggity…the growing hate between the teams is fun having been sparked by roddy white saying they were still a better team last year
“We have better players, we have better coaches, we’re a better team,” Raji said. “Usually, better teams win games. We settled down and played our game and we won. It’s definitely another dagger in their chests. They’ve been talking the whole offseason. They were talking before the game. We don’t worry about that. We’re the champions. We play like champions. People who talk generally don’t get to where they want to go, and obviously, with this team it’s evident.”

My team was playing with a chip on its shoulder after losing last week.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:17 AM
LSU’s next two games are against Tennessee without Bray and Auburn without Defense. Their road appears to be set up to Alabama.
I admit that LSU got lucky last week and this week, not having to face Brantley and Bray.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:18 AM
Shit – I was happy PSU actually looked respectable against Iowa (particularly the 2nd half). For once it was nice not to be embarrassed after the game.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:18 AM
the Giants o-line is fucking shitty.
not as shitty as the Eagles O line (or Chicago’s), but it was nice to see Boothe’s big bottom on my TV screen yesterday.

/I did in the TBL league
October 10th, 2011 at 9:24 AM
Tennessee kind of blows, though. They have no running game at all, and while Da’Rick is a solid WR, he’s not nearly as good as Hunter at this stage in his career. Bray is a good QB, but he isn’t ready to take on SEC-caliber defenses. That’s why I laughed my ass off when people were saying that Bray was going to do to UGA what Kellen Moore did. Moore is a surgeon and killed UGA with 2-step drops and quick slants. Bray and Tennessee want to throw it deep, but they don’t have the OL to protect him. LSU and Bama are going to shit all over Tennessee, but they’d do that with or without Bray.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:24 AM
The defense is really pretty good. Our d-line has a front runner for Big Ten DPOY (Still) and two solid ends, the secondary is a bunch of veterans who have played for 3 years, and the LBs are decent though losing the best LB (Mauti) hurt.
PSU really mixed it up against Iowa and blitzed WAY more than they normally do, particularly in the 2nd half. It caught Iowa and everyone in the stadium off guard.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:24 AM
Not Roeth, but I think they’re pretty damn good.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:25 AM
hoping Bray is out for at least a month, Tenn comes to Fayetteville Nov. 12 and I would be ok with not having to face him. also hoping that Spurier is convinced the Connor Shaw experiment is going to keep working so he keeps starting as well.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:26 AM

there are 3 people left in that jck49er group. I think 20 people died yesterday, all on the giants.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:26 AM
You didn’t like that scheduling? I think it was probably a good thing. You get that road trip out of the way early when the team has fresh legs. It’s a much nastier trip in December/January/February when Alberta is arctic and the fatigue of a long season is setting in. I know a few coaches have said they like a road trip to start the season to bring the team together.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:27 AM

ARRRGGH! I went back and forth between them and the Saints all week.
Should have went with the 49ers.
4 – 1
October 10th, 2011 at 9:28 AM
Bray is out for at least 4 weeks, but probably closer to six. Shaw is probably better than Garcia, actually. Neither of the two are close to elite QBs, but I would bet most defenses would get more opportunities for INTs if Garcia was playing. The Arkansas-SC game should be a good one. SC has a nasty DL and ARK is going to pitch the ball around the field, giving Clowney and Co. plenty of chances to rush the QB.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:28 AM
i’ve been saying all year that the giants aren’t as good as their 3-1 record going into yesterday. the nfc east is hot steaming pile of garbage.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:29 AM
The Niners are the be-all end-all proof that preseason means less than nothing. They could not have looked worse on offense, making high school mistakes across the board. Now they look like a 10 win team.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:29 AM

Yeah, it was great, as usual. The last shot made the entire episode though, without that reveal it just seemed way too cut and dry/easy.

Michigan is not that good. I can’t wait to watch UW beat them 48-6 in the B1G title game. Michigan will get there because the rest of the B1G is absolute garbage.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:32 AM
It’s all about that defense for them. They are impressive. The front seven is really, really good with three elite players (Smith, Bowman, Willis) and now the secondary is playing well. Even Carlos Rogers.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:32 AM

Pretty much what I see happening. Then Wisconsin will get dump trucked by LSU or Bama…unless OU wins out. Then OU will get the pleasure of getting hammered. Both the Big 10 and the SEC title games are going to be laughers this year.

It’s not a guarantee, but they’re more likely to get there than the rest of their division. Who’s better? Nebraska? They were down big at home to a TERRIBLE OSU team. MSU? Meh… Getting beat down by a ND team that lost to South Florida at home didn’t impress me.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:38 AM

Anyways, story is short so here goes.
My roommate is from Wisconsin and he had a friend come down from Milwaukee for the Weezer concert yesterday. We were watching the Brewer game yesterday and Braun hits that tater. After the homer, his buddy yells, “HEBREW HERP! YES!” So I asked the significance. Apparently he had a friend that hooked up with Braun in Milwaukee. She called him a few days later after getting diagnosed with the Herp and said, “I have herpes. Thought you should know.”
Braun’s response? “I know *click*”
October 10th, 2011 at 9:48 AM

they are an ok team. winning on the road is very hard to do in college football. that’s the biggest reason we don’t have a buncha teams going undefeated in college football. i wouldn’t trust any team on the road unless it was against an extremely shitty team.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:50 AM
You’re dumb. You think that guy EVER has trouble sleeping? Have you watched him during a game? He’s too busy listening to smooth jazz to even care about what’s happening on the field. I’m sure he’s a huge David Sanborn fan.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:50 AM
Say what now? MSU has a sick defense and a competent QB (both things that NEB sucks in dealing with) and Penn State is on the road and has a stout defense. I could see NEB going 1-3, 2-2 or 3-1 in that stretch…seriously. They’re all over the board. The Mich State game will be the big one, though.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:50 AM
Braun’s response? “I know *click*”
That’s right up there with “I won *click*”
Funny story SC, not the least bit surprising though. Braun just looks like a greasy dude. Don’t know why he would step out on that gorgeous girl he was with for some piece of MKE strange though.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:51 AM

So not only is he a bug-eyed Tapout spokesperson, but he’s got the herp. Helluva thing they’ve got going on up there in Wisconsin with their star athletes.
But hey, at least they’re winning. Gotta give them credit for that. I’d take some titles at the expense of my city getting infested with STDs.

Am I forgetting anyone else?

Did anyone watch Boardwalk Empire? I liked last night’s episode. Nucky stopped being such a pussy.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:53 AM
My first experience of the snoring scared the crap out of me.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:53 AM
Whoops, link fail. to step on on this

Apparently he does, says the annoying popup ad every time I hit refresh.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:54 AM
They aren’t losing to Minny, so that rules out 0-4, and having watched this program over the past, oh, I dunno, 28 years, I’m fairly certain they aren’t going 4-0 either.

Gimme another day before we discuss, please?
October 10th, 2011 at 9:55 AM
we should win. but again, winning on the road, especially in conference, is difficult.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:55 AM
In the Wisconsin fan’s defense, the Badger’s have no clue what it means to win on the road this year outside of playing Northern Illinois.
Well, they play @MSU, @OSU (yeah, not that difficult this year) and @Illinois before the year is out. If they continue to beat down those teams, not much else you can really do.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:56 AM
I have to watch the first season on my friend’s HBOGo account to catch up. Sounds like a cool show.
Breaking Bad occupies my Sunday nights. The Walking Dead will beginning next week.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:56 AM
So maybe the right to be destroyed by Wisconsin comes down to the Nebraska – Michigan game? That’s wouldn’t be so bad. Probably an exciting game. Neither team’s defense can probably stop the other’s QB. That ssumes both starting QBs are still healthy at that point of the year, which would be somewhat amazing.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:56 AM
Also, did anyone see 60 Minutes? Not that I had any dreams of going there but I will never set foot in Egypt.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:57 AM
Illinois is a good team. but Ron Zook sucks. Urban should go there next season and win the National Title.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:57 AM
Illinois is probably the wildcard for the Badgers. Scheelhaase is pretty good and can make some things happen. Wisconsin should absolutely be favored, but if I had to pick an upset, that’d be the one. Wisconsin hasn’t faced a team with a competent quarterback yet. Especially a mobile one.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:57 AM
Not that I had any dreams of going there but I will never set foot in the middle east.
Fixed.

I’m now 3 episodes behind on that show. I dropped How to Make it in America about 12 minutes into the first episode of season 2, so hopefully I can scare up some time to catch up.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:59 AM
Illinois is probably the wildcard for the Badgers.
Yeah, like I said above, I wouldn’t be shocked at all if they laid an egg down in Champaign.
October 10th, 2011 at 9:59 AM
What about the Husker program (or any program) 28 years ago says how they will do in any given game this year?
October 10th, 2011 at 9:59 AM
This year’s WIS team reminds me a lot of the OSU team that ran roughshod all over the Big 10 (the Troy Smith Heisman year) and then got hammered by the first elite team they played. The Big 10 needed Nebraska and OSU to be legit this year. Kind of a bummer, really. The Ohio State-Nebraska game should have been appointment viewing. It turned out to be a great game, but it felt like two teams fighting for 8-9 wins (maybe less for OSU).
October 10th, 2011 at 10:01 AM
They uh, lost to New Mexico State
October 10th, 2011 at 10:01 AM
It’s a trend, dude. It’s been a decade since this team scared good teams. They simply don’t have the intimidation factor going for them anymore. They are a second class program when it comes to hanging with the big boys. It is what it is, dude.

I heard from no less than 4 girls in one bar in one night that they had hooked up with Cutler in Vegas. They could have been bullshitting us, but where there’s smoke, there’s fire. He has to have some sort of disease to compliment his diabetes.

Did Michael Floyd put on like 20 pounds of muscle over the offseason? He is beating the absolute piss out of DBs that attempt to get physical.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:03 AM
i just want to see the pyramids, no desire to remain there longer than the tour to the site.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:03 AM
Down year for the B1G. It’ll be a good conference next year. Michigan is only getting better, Ohio State will reload, Nebraska gets better despite losing Crick, Iowa should be a 9 win team next season, Badgers will continue to reload on the OL and run the ball.
Just a down year in 2011. It happens.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:03 AM
he turned those empty calories into something useful.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:05 AM
Dammit, Oskie. You beat me to my joke about Floyd being a drunk who should be suspended.

New Mexico State won by 14 against New Mexico. They beat Minnesota by 7. New Mexico also lost to Sam Houston State.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:05 AM
Hell, it was hard to watch.
And yes, Mason’s brand of mediocrity is better than what’s on the field right now

Did everyone see this Alabama hit against Vandy? Fucking badass.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:07 AM
The Minnesota game is about the only one I can look forward to for the Hawkeyes this year. You guys might make us bowl eligible.

She’s a step a above Knox if you ask me.

i never understood why they dropped him. especially since they were so terrible before him. no kid wants to travel up to MN to play college football. you shouldn’t expect more than that.

Guys, do you ever notice if a girl has her nails painted? I feel like I notice women’s nails all the time but I’m wondering if that’s just because I’m a girl that likes manicures.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:14 AM
Teams do this shit all of the time. Ole Miss firing Cutcliffe is always one that boggles my mind. Tennessee fans are about set to drive off Dooley (who may be a bad fit) after just 18 games. How quickly people forget that Tennessee was told thanks-but-no-thanks by the Air Force coach because he saw the mess they were in. Lane Kiffin’s ballyhooed class is almost completely wiped out and now Tenn gets Bama, LSU, Arkansas and South Carolina without their two best offensive players, with one of them being their QB.

Not really. Unless they’re something garish or obnoxious. They’re kind of like shoes. I never really notice a women’s shoes, but you all seem to care so much about them.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:18 AM
Giving up 30+ points in the second half to TT was the nail in the coffin. Boosters and alumni weren’t happy with how his teams would choke away games they had a good lead in (Michigan in 2003, for example). Those teams should have been better than they ended up being.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:18 AM
the game in Fayetteville could be a blood bath.
October 10th, 2011 at 10:18 AM
Those teams should have been better than they ended up being.
Those teams with Barber and Maroney should have had more legit wins over good teams than they did.

I notice the gross painted ones (extra long, with rhinestones, etc) or the really gross unpainted ones. But no, mostly not.
I also don’t know a lot of ladies who paint their nails (anymore).
October 10th, 2011 at 10:48 AM
what fans are you listening to? I don’t know anyone that doesn’t think Dooley gets and deserves any less than 4 full years.
October 10th, 2011 at 11:04 AM
Girls fingernails are like long-snappers – you only notice them if they screw it up somehow.
October 10th, 2011 at 11:15 AM
You live in farm country. This is why you don’t know anyone that paints their nails.
I have red nails right now. They look awesome.
October 10th, 2011 at 11:17 AM

All I know is that the sound of a women with long nails typing is worse than scratching a chalk board.
