College Football Week 10 - Rudy Can't Fail

Not open for further replies.
But how do you think Muschamp called the game? Was his playcalling good? Too conservative, or too aggressive? Or was the loss due to the players not executing?

When FSU lost to NCSU, it was mostly on Jimbo calling a horrible game (and not trusting his players, mainly EJ) moreso than the players not executing. That's why FSU fans were so down after the loss.

I was doing family stuff on Sat., and didn't watch any game other than the FSU game on DVR. So I don't know how the gatas looked other than from highlights

I'm only down because it's Georgia and we were supposed to win. Every other game this season was fun because we weren't supposed to win. But to be 7-1 going into November is in line with my most optimistic outlook (I did say we'd win nine games this year).

Muschamp called a pretty fair game, especially considering we had six fucking turnovers. To only lose by 8 with six turnovers (several of which were in or near our redzone), was nothing short of amazing.

The refs had some terrible calls (like the Easley hold) that kept Georgia alive. But we threw an interception into the endzone to end the half instead of kicking and going ahead. And the fumble at the end of the game could've led to a different outcome had it not happened. So it was still close. Had we had a deep o-line and a better set of corners, we could've overcome the mistakes I think.

I thought Pease kind of fell on his face by failing to adjust to our terrible o-line. I mean, he knew how good UGA was and how banged up our line was. To have Driskel not adjust for that is his fault.

Overall I'm still high on Muschamp and Pease. He took a flat out mess of a Meyer shit sandwich and made them winners again. And our defense is out playing their talent. AND this is our rebuilding year. Sucks to lose to the pups, but oh well.

edit: yes! Top of the page again!

99% of the PMs I get (and I don't get that many) are asking who this is. It's just some model from one of my stock image libraries.

I think you do all of us a desservice by not knowing who your avatar is.

Mine is John Coltrane, possibly the greatest jazz sax in history.

bluemax's is Russell Wilson as described by Bill Simmons, which is sad in many different ways.

I was actually browsing this thread earlier today, and your avatar inspired me to listen to some Coltrane, so thanks for that.

I actually tried to find the name once because so many people asked about it, but the best I could do was a library of images from the photographer's iStockPhoto site. I never heard back from anyone, so I assumed it was what they were looking for.

I've always assumed devildog's is a Marine emblem of some kind, but I don't know--the crocodile seems out of place.

cdhybrid's, of course, is the Wisconsin logo made famous by Kenny Wheaton, and frequently seen on ESPN on a flag at every Gameday.

That's kind of insulting. I mean sure, Florida lost, but they're not 50th* in the country bad.

*Slightly higher if you exclude I-AA teams.

You misunderstand me. Louisville is a strong MNC contender from a prestigious conference - the comparison was made with only praise in mind.

It would be a shame if an undefeated Notre Dame got into the MNC game over an undefeated Louisville. Louisville plays in an AQ conference while Notre Dame isn't in a conference, period!

Notre Dame plays against 2 highly ranked teams and 10 bottom feeders from their respective conferences in a given season. Louisville plays a tough schedule week in week out.

This sounds like rhetoric circa 2005. At least Notre dame can't lose to Ohio State in the fiesta bowl this time. teehee.

I realize the trolling going on. However, my amphibious assault vehicle is sometimes referred to as an Iron Gator. So...ha HA!

So all of the Dawg fans are coming out of the woodwork again after last week's win over Florida. At least they all think GT is so bad they don't even bother talking smack with me! *sigh*

I heard this one the other day...

Q: How do you keep a gator out of your front yard?​

A: Install a goal post!​

Not much point in saying anything about how much Georgia Tech sucks. It's like Auburn right now, just beating a dead horse.

That's not a bad joke. I would have involved Jarvis Jones in the joke somehow.

Meltdown time

Growing Smaller, as it's Miss State, Auburn, Florida and Tennessee. Auburn and Tennessee have to be near the bottom of the barrel, after the amounts of losses they've achieved.

Miss State:
We-Believe-AL-State-Champs_medium.jpg

I blame all of this on putting we believe on saban and bear

turning it off. i believe,we are not CLOSE.

we havent faced this yet this year. Thats where playing pansies hurts you.

God this is embarrassing. On national television. We talked crap all week long about how we were disrespected

That’s my thing with us always wanting respect. You have to earn it first and we’ve never really earned it

A 21 point lead is like 50 for bama. you ain't comin back from that

Making Reservations For Tuesdays meltdown thread

ccouldnt care less now we are bordering on pathetic. how much of THIS can dan mullen take,before he moves on

im checking out. gna drown my sorrows in a cheeseburger. chilli cheeseburger. f… it

It looks like it’s time to go into hiding for a week

Please, bama, enough. My ass is so sore

If you count the 5 yard penalty, MSU just drove the ball 103 yards - in a single drive - and came away with no points. That HAS to be a record or something, right?

I believe...we are the same old M State.

We've secretly replaced Dan Mullen with Sylvester Croom at head coach tonight. Let's see if anyone notices.

I shouldn't have a problem mixing cold medicine and large quantities of alcohol, should I?

HEy, this Albama A&M - Alabama State game on ESPNU is entertaining.

All it was- optimism and trying to get our boys pumped. No one in their right mind thought we were gonna beat them. If they truly did then they're fucking ignorant.

The Devil sold his soul to Nick Saban

You know what's more annoying that stepping a piece of glass? Alabama fans.

Well... 365 more days of taking shit from my mother

Since i can't talk shit right now I guess I'll just get in fights with Alabama fans over my cowbell

At least 1/2 of our fans aren't bandwagons rednecks or actually go/or went to MSU!! I love my school now matter what!

#webelieve We just got our asses handed to us

Auburn
will_work_for_teeth_medium.jpg

Over the last 50 years, Auburn's defense has given up over 600-yards on 4 occasions. Three of the four have come during the Gene Chizik era.

Motherfucker won a national championship TWO YEARS AGO.

At Auburn-TAMU game. The Tigers might be the worst football team I have ever seen & I once went to an Indiana State game.

You know you're having a bad football season when game day parking costs more than the actual tickets

I could be studying right now.

Auburn needs to clean house and buy another quarterback

This embarrasses #auburn and what we stand for .....get the hell outta here Chiz and your crew

now, when i tell ppl i go to Auburn they reply *concerned face* "it's gonna be okay"

"This is becoming embarrassing for the Auburn Tigers." Becoming? You dipshit announcers, it was embarrassing an hour and a half ago.

Leaving at halftime doesn't make you a bad fan, sitting and watching your favorite team get ass raped w/out being bothered by it does.

Just called Dad. "Don't say anything about the game!! I'm recording it, going to watch it from the beginning." So I just started crying.

All In and All sad

Uh, I HOPE this is rock bottom. But there’s still quite a few minutes of 2012 football to endure. I hate everything.

Oh, we'll be sitting at rock bottom for a while. I don’t even want to think about what Alabama will do to us.

Yeah, I’m afraid this is just a thin layer of sandstone on our way to solid rock. I’m not sure we’ve hit bedrock just yet. I shudder at the thought of what the rest of this season brings.

The crowd seems quite and dead. But I saw Troopah running up and down the sideline swinging that damn towel

If I was an AU QB I would knee cap myself so I wouldn't have to be a part of this shite show.

But we had a good week of practice and a very supportive pep rally.

I hope Holland gets polio

Chiz won't make it to the IB.

I hope our entire team doesn't make it to the IB. Let's just call in a forfeit.

Or better yet let's give him a raise and extend his contract.

We're in the Red Zone!!! How many points is that worth??

What did the crowd just cheer for?

scot loeffler just fell out of the box

I left to take a chizik and wipe my jacobs and we scored again.

SECr lawyers: What is the worst thing that can legally be done to Jay Jacobs and Gene Chizik without someone going to jail? TIA.

Fyi, I'm not leaving. I've already told my parents "you did this to me, you sit here and deal with it"

I want to dieeeeeeeeeeee, put a bullet in my heeeeeeeaaaaaadddddddddd

Van Gorder was at the alley bar last night. Maybe he shoulda been watching film

Sure he isn't there now?

If i was a&m i would try to score 100

Texas A&M or Alabama A&M?

One question: Does Toomers get rolled if Chizik gets fired?

Every moment this team breathes air.. they get worse. Everything is regressing to a point where at any moment these kids will be on the field playing the wrong sport...

Give everyone a set of waterwings... Toss them into the Atlantic... Anyone who can make it back to shore, 'Congratulations'- you've got desire and fight in your soul after all. You're Welcome for the free life lesson.

Yup they have a true freshman making us look like a middle school team. We are pathetic with no heart. These are not Auburn men

GUYS AND GIRLS GENE CAN TURN THIS THING AROUND. GIVE HIM ANOTHER YEAR.

There are 119 division 1 coaches i'd rather have than Chizsuck

Did we just get compared to Kentucky as the only other team to give up 42 at the half... we gotta make a change.

Kenticky would wax our ass

What are the symptoms of severe depression?

What you are experiencing right now

oh well, we cant give up a hundred, our score board won't go that high

Can we just tell the Turds our busses broke down?

Man, this coaching staff should cash their paychecks with a gun and mask.

I can't wait until our version of Saban gets here in December!!! Cough Cough PETRINO Cough Cough!

What's the most points we've ever given up at home?

I will be able to tell you in an hour and a half or so.

Do our players not realize they're getting smoked. Instead they're flexing biceps and bumping chest. WTH? They're playing against TAMU's turd-herd.

They got it from Trooper

This is only the second time we have scored three touchdowns in a game this year.

Someone get Holland a wheel chair so he can catch up.

TV feed just went out. Guess we know why Pat Dye was leaving early - pulling the plug.

Dear Gene,
Thank you for all you have done for Auburn University. We appreciate your service and cherish the national championship we won with you at the helm. We trust you will invest this buyout wisely as it is unclear that you will ever get another job in major college football. It was a great time, we laughed, we cried, hell- we beat bama! Now please pack your stuff and make sure you are clear of Auburn city limits by noon tomorrow.
Sincerely,
All Of Us

That was the most pessimistic "Let's see what type of adjustments Auburn makes during halftime..." I've ever heard from an ESPN announcer.

Sitting at the auburn game, what am I doing here? At least I got an awesome hat

Is Chizik on the Bammer payroll? he has destroyed Auburn recruiting for the foreseeable future

I know why practice is closed because they didnt want anyone to find out they have stopped practicing.

I say get Yellafella out there on the sidelines, like he used to do with Tubs. Have him fire Chizik on the spot, then take a yellawood 2x4 to the backside of the rest of the staff.

This disastrous year would not be so intolerable if the team that the tree poisoner roots for wasn't a dynasty. Saban, you failed in the NFL, you need to return to the pros to prove you can really coach.

STFU you are just a fan who never played the game. I hate ppl like you who give up on our team. And especially all the "were all in" fake fans who left the game early. Go root for Bama we dont need you fans that only support the team when we are winning

I want an Apology from Coach Chizik.

ok maybe just maybe the whole team has been abducted by aliens because even a man from frickin Mars could play better than this.........i have never in my life..........and I was there in the Barfield days.........Lord have mercy.

Do not tarnish Doug Barfield. This team is beyond comparison.

Florida

Gah! Time to go kick the neighbor's dog.

Georgia is saying 'here, Florida. take the win away from us'.

right now we are politely declining, via the offense

SEC Championship game has been cancelled. Congratulations, Alabama.

It could be worse.....we could be Auburn fans

Had to figure the train would eventually come to a stop. Just shocked that it came off the tracks, fell from a bridge, and exploded into a ball of fire at the bottom of a mountain.

I hope whatever amount the offense got paid to throw this game was a LOT OF MONEY

Yeah, you KNOW that Saban and crew were watching this unholy mess and laughing their a$$ off about what a joke the SEC east is...

Fuchi fuco zook fuco fuco fuco fuco zook zook zook zook ficho ficho ficho

Time to sacrifice a virgin. Too bad Tim is in NY.

here we go.......statue of liberty coming up

Screw that, we need the mother of all plays: the annexation of puerto rico

georgia still has to play auburn and ole miss, the season isn't over if we lose

Our SEC hopes hinge on Ole Miss and/or Auburn. Dear Lord.

Hey man Auburn can beat UG--hahaha kills self

Who wants to play The Tide....anybody......not all at once......just raise your hand.....no

Honey, where is my gun?

if anyone trash talks me at church tomorrow, I will give them one warning before I punch them in the mouth.

Single file line onto the ledge please, no need to get testy. There is plenty of room for everyone...

Anyone seen that episode of Malcolm in the Middle where Reese breaks Malcolms microscope by accident and then punches himself in the face to take the blame off himself and get Malcolm in trouble? And then Malcolm started smashing his microscope with a hammer to make it seem like Reese broke it even more? That's how I picture this QB battle.

look on the bright side, at least we get the dignity of not playing Alabama

Gators remember when we were full of hope and swagger 3 hours ago? Good times

How in the fuck can there still be an entire quarter left? I'd rather have this game called at the end of the 3rd for lack of acceptable performance.

Why does our o-line even exist

We should just lose so we don't have to play Bama.

FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK.

With the weather being nice out, my wife has reminded me numerous times that the windows are open….

Bad news: our season is fucked
Good news: this will keep Richt from getting fired for a while.

Just wanted to stop in to say FUCK EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS GAME SO FAR. Thanks for listening.

At this point, I would say the O-line is the weakest element in the program.

Our WRs would be very upset with you for forgetting them.

How do you go to the University of Florida and can’t count?

Yeah – that’s an Auburn thing, dammit!

Tennessee
Poor Dooley couldn't find a Nguyen in a room full of Vietnamese people!

UT is the bad guy in the horror movie. You're sure he's dead, then he makes one last lunge with the knife. Then he gets capped in the head

Derek Dooley is working furiously to schedule Colorado for the next four weeks.

I just want us to be hated again. I don't care if they ever win another NC (been there, done that), as long as they're like "DAMN VOLS!"

If your in Knoxville, please make an effort to throw beers at Michael Palardys car. Or kick his ass. He deserves both.

All of us Vol fans need to remember it can always be worse. Take Auburn for example...
 
Early Liberty Bowl predictions include UCF vs. Tennessee in a few publications. With Ole Miss sprinkled in too.

Maybe we get to fire a coach this season! I thought we for sure had Richt in 2010. :(

Edit: :jnc at that Dooley Nguyen one.

You went after Auburn's DC last year and had him, if only for a short time. Maybe you can land their head coach this year?

I'm more pissed cause i drafted the guy OKC received in Basketball Fantasy, and now instead of the best option on his team, he's the 3rd option.
Martin should produce just fine coming off the bench. He'll still probably get 25-30 minutes per game, and his efficiency should be helped by playing alongside guys like Durant and Westbrook.

Yes these feelings date back to before they were both in the B1G. Kinda neat coincidence my three favorite teams are now all in the same conference.

4. Washington
5. Colorado

Liked Oregon in the Bellotti years. My best friend went to school there while I was at Cal, and we'd talk a lot about our respective teams and root for each other.

I'll still root for them over most other teams, but it's not as fun with them destroying us every year.
