Soooo looks like Mack Brown has been offered $4mil/yr to be the new head coach at SMU. He's already rolling in dough from his Texas pension, but if he's out to get more money then maybe he'll take it. Will he also court Will Muschamp as DC to "get the ol' gang back together"?

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

Coaching SMU would seem like a nice side hobby for Mack Brown.

So basically he'll put forth the same effort being a head coach at SMU as he did his last 4 years at Texas?

edit: Oh goodness VTech. This is going to be the ACC's aggy v. Bama game

 

[truly101]

Wow VT, you suck.

Sounds about right.


And here I thought picking Miami would be a throwaway pick.

 

[Tamanon]

ECU's corners are killing us today. It's crazy.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Remember when Virginia Tech was carrying the ACC through Florida State's lean years?

 

[Tamanon]

Shane Carden's "accuracy" is killing me

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

UConn offense taking advantage of weeknight craziness.

 

[Chris R]

Negative integer rushing yards? There go my picks.

 

[Karl2177]

Gaddamn. VT can't hold onto a football.

 

[Monroeski]

I don't usually pay enough attention to the announcers to know why everybody seems to hate Jesse Palmer so much, but after his little thing about pizza (read: "'za") a second ago, I get it.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Man, UConn really fucking sucks.

 

[mre]

Does this count as another example of vicarious Clempsoning by Ohio State?

 

[Kacar]

Va. Tech

 

[Purple Cheeto]

This game has not been as close as Vegas lead me to believe it would be.

 

[Tamanon]

Pirates sweated out a much closer one than I thought it would be. But a win is a win, keep moving!

 

[Lonestar]

Good Grief, 80% of the teams I chose, lose badly.

Better or worse than Rece using "fail" as a noun?

[andycapps]

I told myself last year or the year before to never pick Virginia Tech again. I can't believe I forgot my own advice.

Notre Dame freshman WR is enjoying prominent company

So she definitely doesn't look the same without makeup

Spoiler

and glasses

 

[StrikerObi]

Why the hell did so many of you pick VT? Did you not realize that the state of their program is currently a combination dumpster fire plus tire fire?

 

[jjasper]

Please pick against Bama. kthanks

Gonna get Petermaned this weekend........

 

[andycapps]

Please pick against Bama. kthanks

HE LIVES!

I initially picked Miami, but let my gut get overruled by "research".

VT running back was returning from injury and Miami run defense has been poor this season, so I thought that might get their offense going again.

Also fell into the selective stat trap. "Miami hasn't won in Blacksburg in X years." "Miami has lost their last X games on the road."

 

[andycapps]

As if Tennessee fans needed more reason to be mad at Junior.

Upon taking the Tennessee job, he sent word to a couple of quarterbacks the Vols had committed under the previous regime that they needed to look elsewhere -- and they did.

Their names? Tajh Boyd and Bryce Petty.

 

[Lonestar]

Please pick against Bama. kthanks

Picked A&M last week

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Oh Maryland

 

[mre]

I had a trial scheduled to start next week or so that, to everyone's surprise, settled.

Picked A&M last week

Good man.

First heard that late last season. Pretty crazy.

O rly?

Miami had a game last saturday wheras VT's last game was on Thursday so they had more time to prep and it was a home game. There were factors in their favor but they couldn't counteract how godawful VT is.

 

[JCX]

Any Spartans/Wolverines going to EL tomorrow? This is my first time going not as a student, so I'm wondering when the best time to leave is before 96 stops completely.

 

[Dsyndrome]

Can't believe I'm rooting for USC this weekend; it's solely so USC looks good when ND plays them at the end of the season.

This needed to be posted. Apparently Gurley was at some Halloween party last night in a pirate outfit saying "free me".

I think you are mistaking posing in a picture with sex. There is no Catholic teaching that says you can't take fully clothed pictures with porn stars in public. Still better than taking a picture with Kim Kardashian. At least porn stars have a role in society.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

I always forget Notre Dame is the BYU for Catholics.

There are more pictures than the ones at the basketball game...

Still trying to wrap my mind around a world where Texas, Texas Tech, and Texas A&M are all unranked while Baylor and TCU are both in the top 12.

Combined AP vote total for BU and TCU: 1,820.
Combined AP vote total for UT, TTU, and TAMU: 1.

...and that one vote is for a team that has lost their last three games by a combined score of 142-51.

 

[Affeinvasion]

I always forget Notre Dame is the BYU for Catholics.

The only person I ever knew who got in trouble for "sex before marriage" was banging someone in the middle of the golf course and got caught.

The only thing they were really strict about was guys in women's only dorms after curfew. Women in men's only dorms after curfew would only get you caught if you were a complete idiot about it. Curfew in this case only referred to quiet hours and men or women only after a certain hour.

I'm trying to wrap my head around a world where Ole Miss and Miss State are ranked in the top 5. At the same time. Or ever.

Wonder if parietals will ever go away. Agree, very easy to skirt in the guy dorms.
