The extra few weeks of practices the NCAA allows you to have alone are a huge advantage for next year. Going to a bowl...any bowl, is a big help if you want to continue improving year over year in a tough conference, just for the extra practice.

Other than being able to see your team one more time this is the biggest reason any fan should want their team in a bowl.

God I hate living in Georgia after a Tennessee loss. Facebook posts "HOW BOUT THEM DOGS" and daily interactions that consist of "RUFF RUFF RUFF" and delusional hopes of "BEST IN THE SEC!" are wide and rampant today. Maybe I should rethink my position of wearing my Volunteer fandom on my sleeves.....

I think it's made even worse when most of the Georgia fans I interact with in real life are either:

A. Ignorant fans that know nothing about college football besides the scores they saw scrolling across ESPN, including UGA's latest victory
B. Band wagoners
C. Loud and overzealous
D. All of the above

Yeah, it was annoying as hell when I lived in GA. It was only ever peaceful after a UGA loss. All the fair weather fans would hide in their holes until the next victory. It happens just about everywhere with every school though.

Go Gators! LSU has look vulnerable the past few weeks. But that doesn't always translate into this week. Though I think us Gators can take them.

Gators win by 10.

Lots of tough decisions this week.
 
I lurked forever waiting account approval before registering again.

Net result is the Gators have always sucked when I could actually post. Upside is you couldn't see me do the net equivalent of Alan Rickman tableflip.gif in my post Ole Miss meltdown.

Still got in in time for emotional energy.

Anyways, long story is that you can't get me to fuck off unless I get a job and a life, and even then I'll probably still post occasionally.

Just be like the rest of us and post while youre at work! I actually think my posting has gone up since I graduated and got one of these big boy jarbs.

Just hit the archives to see Texas is 0 for their last 7 against ranked opponents. Last win against a ranked opponent was in 2010 when Garrett Gilbert beat #5 Nebraska

I knew I was nervous about picking Texas against West Virginia for a reason. Changing my pick.

Dude passed out.


Also scariest moment of the game! I was pretty sure he was done for at least 2-3 weeks.

Wait, isn't "WOOF WOOF WOOF"? We need that one Georgia fan back who would remind us after every post.

I like that 3 cars were destroyed, totalling $35,000. So, either 3 cars for about $12K (which means, economy growth in West Virginia!)

Or someone burned Dana's $34,000 car :/

Maybe they were actually typical WV trucks with $11k couches in the back of each.
 
They rush out and fold them down as soon as the whistle blows. Just think of them as one stop urban bonfires.

I don't know who you are. I know a goat with a WV brand. But I don't recognize this brand. Is that the one that belongs to a team that is going to get steamrolled once the Braves win the bullshit wild card playoff.

:jnc. We all know the Braves never win anything.

To be fair, a 10 year old Camry is under 10 grand, which is about something a kid would have for college.

As one of maybe three or four Northwestern fans on GAF, I strongly caution anyone betting on them winning at PSU!

1. Penn State has rocked them in this series over the long term. They've won 12 out of 15 meetings.

2. "Northwestern has lost its last four games as a ranked team in the AP poll dating back to 2001." Enough said.

I'm a HUGE Northwestern fan, but they haven't won a game ranked since 2000. If they DO pull out a win against PSU, then all bets are off for their season (and the B1G title race), but I wouldn't bet on it.

You're just trying to get a jynx going. But PSU always seems to get crazy comebacks against NW.

Damn you for making us pick Arkansas and Auburn among other hard picks. I can't believe I just picked Duke

Thanks, but I'm picking against Penn St whenever they turn up in the pick em, no matter who their opponent is.

Go Cats!

Cyan knows what's up.

I also, when I actually played always picked Florida and against Notre Dame. That might be why I started to fall off last year. The Florida part, not the Notre Dame.
