OT: All purpose NCAA thread v2.0

[YEM]

Most people knew that back in August.

just like most people knew that notre dame would once again be overrated & overranked
frauds!

Respectable on paper. Bama got bored and started playing unhinged. They kept OK in the game, but when OK started to threaten, Bama just turned the switch back on to keep the distance. The spread may have been between 18 & 11 points for a majority of the game, but it didn't have to be.

Prime examples of Bama just going through the motions, the personal foul on a touchback kickoff, the lineman not finishing the play and taking his helmet off during the not-sack unsportsmanlike penalty. Saban made a plea earlier in the year to the media not to salivate and slob too hard over the team. His biggest competition is complacency. Maybe Clemson does something on the field, but OK was glorified window dressing justifying the players swag bags and vaca to NOLA.

I figured that might have been the case

That would be a new record for Temple.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

And apparently it is.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

That was quick lolz.

In Memory...

I would feel sorry for Temple if I gave a damn. They got did dirty though, dirty indeed.

Regarding the PO. The selection committee says they want the best teams, but don't qualify what it means to be the best. Arguments can be made in any subjective manner of selection. What folks are clamoring for is something objective. The way it is is becoming boring. If the problem is Bama is too good, then it's just as bad as if no team was good enough.
And all of it is buoyed by a flagrantly misguided ranking system that is taking shape now, when teams shouldn't be ranked before the first 4 games, at a minimum.

Wonderful

Hope Manny loses very game. Bring back Golden.

Gotta wonder if Hologorsen goes to Houston, if WVU would reach out to Rod? This is assuming the sexual harassment suit from Arizona has been settled and there isn't bad blood anymore between Rod and WVU.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Temple at least made some money.

 

[Ruck Over]

Temple just got that much closer to raising the necessary funds to build their on campus stadium.

This Oregon game is a barn burner.

I should be paid for watching a quarter of that.

Hologorsen isn't going to Houston. They're insane if they think that's happening.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

It’s apparently not that far fetched. It sounds like Holgreson wants out of WVU & WVU isn’t going to do what’s necessary for him to stay.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Wonder if they circle back on Josh Gattis now? At least they got some nice coin for Diaz’ departure & while he was a nice hire it’s not like they couldn’t find a similar candidate. You’re also not trying to salvage a recruiting class either as it’s not like Temple gets much noteworthy classes in normal years anyway.

 

[Ruck Over]

Just wanted to chime in on this 1st down get by Stanford to ice the game.

f*** Pitt.

These losers basically dominate the game for three quarters, and can never get anything more than 13 points on the board. And are going to lose by 1 point to a mediocre Stanford team.

H2P indeed.

MSU is a likely bad and ugly team. Oregon is a bit overrated from a generally non-impressive Pac-12. What did you expect?

But you're getting to watch history in the making. Oregon just punted for the 10th time, the most ever for one team during this bowl game.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

@Captain Dave Poulin you watching Missoura?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Holy shit the Four Tops are doing the halftime show for this one.

I expected my Ducks to be winning by one million at this point.

Oh Oregon....
