2012 College Football Thread

SEC Champ Game AKA the Real National Championship has been great so far. 2 fake punts, a blocked FG for a TD, and 2 point conversion run up the middle and some big plays and big hits along the way.

That um USC game was legit. The refs tried to screw USC blantently. Clowney made the hit if the year too.

Farmer are you at all worried about your secondary vs OU? It's probably the best passing offense you have faced since LA Tech and they lite you guys up good. I know I'm worried about JFF running all over OU's defense.

OU is going to score. Landry will go for 300+ easily. I wouldn't put too much stock in the La Tech game. We had a ton of guys injured and suspended on the defensive side if the ball. Plus the way the refs were calling that game the DBs couldn't touch the WRs.

I think A&M just moves it a little better with a good ground game (backs and JFF) to go along with the spread air attack.

Even with OUs quick passing and protection, I think Moore gets to Landry a few times.

Teddy and bbc's boys are still up 2 TDs in the second.

Yeah I new Teddy was good but I didn't expect Louisville to do that to Florida. SEC not looking all the strong in the bowl season so far.

Regardless of which conference you come from, motivation is a big factor. UL was excited to be there. UF didn't give a shit about UL.

Another reason why I think A&M has the edge over OU. Our guys are excited to be in the CB. OU already had their bags packed for a BCS bowl. Plus OU has had recent success over A&M. The Aggies are the ones with a chip on their shoulder.

Teddy is big time.

BE champ again wins it's BCS bowl game.

Biggest upset in BCS history?

Saw some of the ESPN guys talking this up, but how does that play into a tipped ball that goes pick 6 to start the game?

And again Teddy is big time. Big time play from your QB goes a long way. You know this as well as anyone this year.

RU suffered from the exact opposite in their bowl. Worst QB performance that I think I've ever seen. And that is not an exaggeration. BE could be 4-0 in it's bowl's if it were not for that.

I agree with the motivation factor. Obviously OU has been a victim of that too many times. Florida went from an outside chance at playing for the NC to playing against a barely ranked Louisville team.
I'm not as worried about OU flaking out for a couple reasons. For one Landry is a senior and playing for his future. We have seen many times when a QB has a big bowl game it gives a major boost to their draft stock. Especially a player like Landry who had some previous hype. He also seems very motivated to be the 1st QB in OU history to go 4-0 in a bowl game.
But outside of Landry I am worried about a couple guys. For one there are rumors of a few players leaving early including our best DB Tony Jefferson and our stud do it all FB Millard. That guy is the complete package. He can run, catch and block with the best of them.
Jalen Saunders being declared eligble to play is huge for OU. In the 8 games he was eligible to play in he was the leading WR for OU and he is amazing after the catch.
Should be a great game.

That's what they're saying but I disagree. If we didn't have a month to get back two of our best guys on the defensive line, then yes. We had just as much speed as Florida and I think they were overrated. We have 7 guy's leaving, but 7 studs coming in. Gonna be hard to beat my CARDS next year. I can't wait!

Biggest per Vegas thus far. UL was barely ranked coming in. Still the feel of the BSU v OU or Utah v Bama was more of a David vs Goliath.

Yeah both of those seem bigger. Even though weren't both those teams undefeated? Still they were non AQ schools.

I'm going with Utah over Bama, CARDS over Florida, then BSU over UO(heh!).

That Boise team was pretty badass imo and I picked em to win that game.

That Boise team was good but they weren't as good as OU. If they played again OU would win 9 out of 10 in blowouts. Adrian Peterson deserved better then his teammates gave him that night. It was the case of OU suffering from being let down by being in that game and Boise being pumped up to be in that game.
Makes me sick cause OU was 10x the team Boise was that year.

UO was stacked but all around that was the best team Boise had. They had just beat us down the year before I think. Might've been 04 though, but that was a great CARDS team and they smacked us. Guess that's why I was lucky in picking them in 06. Forgot you guys had Peterson and I agree you guy's would win more in a playoff with them.

Yeah that was a very good Boise team but that was also one of the better OU teams as well. Besides the NC team in 2000 and the team with Bradford that should have beat Florida, that team that lost to Boise was the next best OU team and it was very disapointing they didn't reach the title game. That was they year OU got screwed over in that Oregon game(onside kick given to other team when they never had possession of the ball). Combined it was the most painful season I can remember. That team had the talent to contend for the title.

Easy money on A&M tonight. OU's defense was really poor down the stretch. I would've loved to see a 4 team playoff with Notre Dame, Bama, Oregon and A&M

Whoop!

The Irish add 5 more at the Under Armour All American game and now have ESPN's #1 rated class. Kelly waking up the echoes...

Bama is beating ND senseless.
