Holy crap. I can't believe my wolfpack beat FSU again.
Unless Notre Dame jumps you.Does this mean South Carolina will be 3rd going to Baton Rouge? Fuck me
To be fair, don't know where this was. And we did play our game on Thursday.We went to a liCal sports bar/pub for dinner tonight, the gatas fans were leaving disappointed when we got there, the fsu fans were starting to fill in as we were leaving, both fan bases in full force, kinda like how UK fans try to pretend how thongs are in the ville. Other then the Yuengling tour, not once did I see anyone representing USF, UCF, or Miami.
Are you crazy? Maximum schadenfreude will only be achieved when Notre Dame is humbled enough to actually join a fucking conference. I think that might take three straight 0 win seasons, so that's what I'm pulling for.I don't understand why people don't want Notre Dame to move up in the poll. In fact we should all hope they can somehow run the table to #3 before they play Wake Forest only to lose spectacularly. This would yield maximum schadenfreude.
Speaking of Notre Dame. The game did not turn out like this Miami fan thought. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_uAc50LABg
This is awesome.

If Notre Dame comes in to Norman undefeated, that's the closest I'll ever come to rooting for OU.
But I still hope Notre Dame beats their asses.
Wow, makes our band look like a high school band.And I missed most of it because I was waiting in line for the restroom. :sadface
The Epona formation is insane. Our band is so fucking awesome.
Yep.That's the situation I call a "Meteor Game," in which you root for not either of the teams on the field, but instead the unnamed interplanetary hero that may or may not be hurtling towards the stadium. Or perhaps a "Bane Game," which is self explanatory if you've seen "The Dark Knight Rises."
Question for you, were the Nebraska fans super quiet to you as well? I was pretty disappointed with the Nebraska fans loudness, UCF fans were louder (dead serious)

Words can't explain Morgantown last night. I witnessed a man in a Spider Man costume ask a police officer what he could do to help
Not exactly atypical of our fans from my experience. Especially on the road and when we stumble even a bit. We've never been good at coming from behind and when anything goes wrong it usually snowballs like it did last night. I think a lot of our fans have acquired a bit of a fatalistic streak when it comes to struggles on the field. So it quickly dissolves into glum/grim acceptance of our fate and we don't rebound out of that state back into a positive state but rather into thinking "when is the next thing going to go wrong."
I'd also argue that we're more knowledgeable about the game than the average fanbase so more of us see the missed blocks, missed assignments, etc. and it feeds right back into that fatalistic streak. Even when we're doing "okay" we see the sloppiness, the poor play by certain players, questionable play calls, etc. and we wait for those mistakes to come back and bite us in the ass.
Ohio state fans are also regarded as one of the more knowledgable fans. But installing even when you guys got up 17-7 after that last td they barely made any sound.
But installing even when you guys got up 17-7 after that last td they barely made any sound.
Thinking about it some more, after we're up by two scores a lot of us would probably consider it to be improper/impolite to cheer too loudly. Then when the game turned quickly after that our negative nancy selves kick in and we just silently accept the mistakes piling up.
This is maybe the most insane thing of all time lol.

I think that last run was excessive and shows the character of the man.I love Urban Meyer.

Only two of those top 5 teams have any chance of being in the top 5 at the end of the season. Rankings are funny like that.
And when was the last time Oregon State was in the top 10?
Nah, any of those SEC teams would have to lose at least 2 to end outside the top 5.

I love it. Despite the scandal, Tressel generally tried his hardest to not run up the score and show mercy to his opponents yet opposing coaches couldn't wait to talk shit. I hope Urban drops 60+ on everyone from here on out.I think that last run was excessive and shows the character of the man.
Realistically I don't believe it'll happen but I like to keep the dream alive. Braxton for Heisman however, is much more likely. He might be a solid #2 behind Geno Smith right now.Honestly I'm curious if this is possible. Even if OSU runs the table you're getting out of two of the toughest games that would be on your schedule; the B1G Championship & a BCS Bowl. Given the weakness in the B1G this year and a non-conf schedule that didn't include any particularly impressive teams I'm not sure voters will put OSU above even a one loss SEC champion.

They were keeping the ball on the ground to run out the clock.
It's not Meyer's fault your defense sucks ass.
Oregon State is going to lose its top ten ranking this Saturday in Provo. Calling it now.
