Official THE BORE College Football Thread of Death Sentences - 2011

[Bloodwake]

lol. Will there be one less team in the ACC this year? Guess there's one negative to fucking a hooker.



Will Kentucky finally beat Florida and Tennessee, especially when both teams are weak? (not like Kentucky is any stronger this year than usual)



Will Michigan finally be good? Or will they get Dantonio'ed? What about Ohio State? Can a merchandising scandal give Maurice the victory he's been longing for?

[Great Rumbler]

Oklahoma

[Bloodwake]

hasn't won in ten years. 

Anyways, been listening to a lot of ESPN radio lately and the idea Miami could get off scot free because it happened in the past keeps coming out. WUT? I doubt it.

It wouldn't really matter if Miami gets hit with the death penalty, but no punishment to one of the biggest repeat offenders in college football would be pretty offensive, especially after the USC/Tennessee/Ohio State shit going on this summer.

[Great Rumbler]

hasn't won in ten years. 

How many games has your team won in the past decade?

[Phoenix Dark]

ether

7 wins for Michigan sounds about right.

[T234]

HELL YEAH BITCHEZ

THIS IS THE YEAR

TENN YOU'RE GOIN DOWN

[Akala]

LSU is about to be royally fucked. like 15 people involved in some bar fight...apparently Jefferson to be arrested tomorrow!

[Brehvolution]

Penn State

[BlackMage]

Fresno State!!! 

[Bloodwake]

hasn't won in ten years. 

How many games has your team won in the past decade?

Not a lot. I do own a glass house. But I throw stones at the rottweilers on the other lawns quite frequently anyways.

[Ganhyun]

Lets go Dawgs!

[Bloodwake]

First time in recent history Kentucky is going to play on the first day of the season! Go Cats!

[Bloodwake]

Kentucky looked like ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS last night.

Meanwhile, what about this TCU - Baylor game? Guess the non-AQs are going to start getting shit really early this year now that TCU is taking a shit on national television.

[bachikarn]

Kentucky looked like ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS last night.

[Bloodwake]

The gif says it all. If we struggle against Central Michigan, I'm probably going to write this year's team off. It is a rebuilding year for the Cats anyways considering basically our entire offense is in the NFL this year.

[Phoenix Dark]

Notre Dame

Michigan is looking...not bad.

[Phoenix Dark]

Denard Robinson doesn't look amazing...yet I guess. Unless defenses have figured him out

[Phoenix Dark]

This is the best worst football game of all time, holy fuck

[bachikarn]

holy fuck, the michigan game was so sick

[T234]

This MI-ND game can't be life  

[Bloodwake]

smh

also, guess there's not going to be a Big East for too much longer other than in Basketball. Syracuse and Pitt are now members of the ACC officially.

[Akala]

I really really want a Boise State/LSU MNC.

SO BAD

[Phoenix Dark]

Wisconsin is holding their own against Nebraska, I'm impressed

edit: blowout...I didn't expect this

[Mr. Gundam]

How did you not expect Nebraska to get steamrolled by Wisconsin? While the Huskers still beat Washington, they let them run ALL OVER THE FIELD scoring 38 points and 440 yards of total offense. As soon as they played a top-tier school, I had a feeling we'd see them for who they really are.

I'm sure my father-in-law in Omaha is bummed right now, even though he knew this was going to happen.

[Phoenix Dark]

Ok, Nebraska is officially Bad. Losing to OSU? c'monnn

edit: epic comeback

[Mr. Gundam]

University of Washington should be in the Top 25 on Sunday.

[Phoenix Dark]

Michigan got exposed hard today. Denard Robinson is an amazing athlete and a nice guy...but he's not a quarterback. He's capable enough for screens and playing catch with receivers , but he can't hit guys in motion. His footwork is horrible, he's not accurate at all, and any good defense can shut the passing game down with good man coverage.

In short, he can't run the pro style offense. I was surprised that Michigan won its first Big Ten games but that luck is about to end.

[Mr. Gundam]

Keith Price is an unstoppable QB juggernaut.

[Phoenix Dark]

The MSU v Wisconsin game was epic

[Mr. Gundam]

OKLAHOMA

[T234]

Don't do it Joe Mol!

[ZephyrFate]

LSU/Bama showing off SEC overratedness.

[T234]

What conference you root for?

[ZephyrFate]

PAC-12.

[Phoenix Dark]

Either of these teams would destroy Stanford imo

[T234]

I saw last week's Stanford-USC. That game was the reverse of this: Killer Offenses, TERRBLE Defenses. The PAC also cranks out consistently good QBs.

But the SEC, Overrated?

HELL NAW SON

[ZephyrFate]

Either of these teams would destroy Stanford imo

Then fall to a pumped up, on-fire Oregon.


Besides that shitty first game. I'd rather take killer offenses so the game is actually fucking exciting.

[Phoenix Dark]

Damn, great interception

[etiolate]

that bama lsu game was not worth watching

sorry southerners

A SEC team playing Stanford would be interesting. It would be interesting to see the SEC athleticism have to play an offense that can read your defense and adjust, can run or pass on you any down and has a QB that will beat you with the run if you overpress. Right now it looks like LSU just scares bad QBs and reacts to panic in the offense.

[T234]

Andrew Luck has never faced a D-Line OR Secondary like LSU or Bama's (USCw's ain't close, sorry bluemax), so nobody knows what the fuck would happen. Neither one of those clubs have seen a QB as skilled as Luck either. Lot to think about in this hypothetical matchup.

I agree though, PUTRID offense displayed tonight by both teams.

[Akala]

that game last night was only interesting because of vested interest. really wish ol' boy wouldn't have stepped out of bounds at the end, so there could have been ONE touchdown. I don't really know why some are wanting a rematch. who wants to go through that again? I'd much rather they both win out and then rolling curbstomp whoever they get set up with.

I would love love love LSU/Stanford (Boise lol), but don't see it happening. still unsure who will even play for the MNC.

I see Oregon beating Stanford, and their fans becoming unbearable again. I like Oregon, but their fans are the worst.
OU has a good chance to beat OSU (I like, but don't trust) and weasel into another big bowl failure. Hopefully they get stuck in the Fiesta.
LSU has shat the bed vs. Arkansas lately, so they are in no way guaranteed anything. still some distance left to run :'(
At least we have like, Western Kentucky up next!

[Human Snorenado]

Why are you guys actually talking about football when there's a child raping controversy going on at Penn State?  Who knew college football was sexier than the Catholic church.

Another boy attended as many as 15 football games as Mr. Sandusky’s guest; Mr. Sandusky brought him into a shower on campus and made the boy touch his genitals, the grand jury said. He placed his hands down the pants of another boy who spent the night at Sandusky’s house before home games, the grand jury said.

A graduate assistant for the team told the grand jury he alerted Mr. Paterno in 2002 that he had seen Mr. Sandusky sexually assaulting a boy in the shower at the Lasch Football Building on the Penn State campus. The graduate student told the grand jury he went to Mr. Paterno’s home the next day and described what he had seen. Mr. Paterno, in turn, told Mr. Curley.

About a week and a half later, Mr. Curley and Mr. Schultz met with the graduate assistant, then told Mr. Sandusky that he could not bring any children from the Second Mile onto campus, a ban the grand jury said Mr. Curley acknowledged was “unenforceable.” The university officials did not alert law enforcement, Ms. Kelly said.

Mr. Schultz testified to the grand jury that there was a similar incident involving a young boy in the football shower with Mr. Sandusky in 1998. The mother of that boy confronted Mr. Sandusky at her home, with two police detectives listening to the conversation. He told the woman, according to testimony by one of the detectives: “I was wrong. I wish I could get forgiveness. I know I won’t get it from you. I wish I were dead.”

Mr. Schultz, whose position includes oversight of the university police, testified that he did not know that the university police produced a lengthy report about the 1998 incident. The grand jury found the assertions by him that the 2002 allegations were “not that serious” and that he and Mr. Curley “had no indication that a crime had occurred” contradictory to other testimony.

...

“I never had any type of idea or suspicions about anything like that,” Kennedy said. “All the kids loved him.”

The grand jury report concluded with an incident that it said occurred in 2000, during a week when the Nittany Lions were away from campus for a game. Late at night, a janitor cleaning the football building said he observed Mr. Sandusky performing oral sex on a boy in a shower. Another worker that night found the shaken janitor, who said, “I just witnessed something in there I’ll never forget.”

What is this I don't even.

[Phoenix Dark]

So does this mean Paterno is fucked too?

Oregon fans have nothing on Stanford/LSU/Auburn/OK State/Boise State fans. Nothing.

[Akala]

Lies.

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Oooooooooooooooooooooo

[close]

SEC fans are pretty bad overall (what else do some of these towns have other than football), but they have nothing on Oregon fans when the team is doing well.

[ZephyrFate]

Do you actually have any personal anecdotes on this or are you just going along with the bandwagon hate of Oregon fans because I think that's pretty lame.

[Akala]

Years of message board posts and the few times I've come into contact with them mainly. The shit that was talked both times!

Good but not that good. Kinda like Dallas fans from the 90's.

You've only encountered bad fans, then. I live in Eugene and Ducks fans are awesome.

[Akala]

hopefully! I'd love to hit a game up in Eugene. prefereably when they are hosting and running over USC.

[ZephyrFate]

Ducks CURBSTOMPING Stanford.

Fuck anyone who hates the Ducks. Goodbye Luck, your Heisman hopes just died.

[T234]

OKLAHOMA STATE LOST HOLLEEEEEEE SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

 
 

[Phoenix Dark]

WOW

[ZephyrFate]

Oregon/LSU rematch in the nat'l championship looking VERY likely now. THANK YOU OSU

[Great Rumbler]

Good jon, OSU.

Well, guys, get ready for a 13-6 championship game. 

[Akala]

Come on tigers!!! Lol I'm in Mississippi for the game.

[Human Snorenado]

Awesome, anything that shows that the bcs sucks is good in my book.  Hopefully LSU will lose too and the computers will just blow up trying to spit out a poll.

[Phoenix Dark]

jeez Nebraska is getting dominated. Also fun to see the two worst QBs on ranked teams duke it out 

[Mr. Gundam]

Huskers got slaughtered. I'm sure Bo is having a temper tantrum on the sidelines.

[Phoenix Dark]

Michigan's defense has really impressed. Also Denard had a good enough passing game
