2010-2011 College Football Thread

What a pitiful, lackluster performance from both teams
One of the worst Bowl games I have ever endured
Both teams should be embarrassed by their play

Richt should be ashamed of the way this team was prepared
This does nothing to give any confidence for his job moving into 2011

Bitter, party of one your table is now ready!:p

Although, I do agree that it wasn't a great game, I'm glad the Knights finally won their first bowl game.

Michigan and Michigan State are both taking ass whippings :eek:

SEC Dominance of the Big 10 continues

Wish the Dawgs could have played a Big 10 patsy :D

whoa I don't know if I'd call mich state a patsy :eek:

Bama had something to prove in this game, started strong and it snowballed from there.

If your dawgs couldn't handle.... ahem central florida... I DOUBT they would have done much against MSU :p
 
Ho-ly crap!

I knew we could score on Michigan's defense, but I never expected 52. We have had some issues with running QBs this year, so I expected them to score more points, but our defense really came through. Right now, I would say Dan Mullen is worth every penny of that new contract. I think we just saw Rich Rod get Danhandled. :)

Edit: I just want to say all the ESPN "experts" can kiss my rear end. All of them except Lou Holtz picked Michigan.

Well, its official... Pitt fires Mike Haywood

Excerpt from article...
SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Pittsburgh fired football coach Mike Haywood on Saturday following his arrest on a domestic violence charge that was upgraded to a felony.

"After careful consideration of recent events, the University of Pittsburgh has dismissed Michael Haywood as its head football coach, effective immediately. He was advised of that action this afternoon," the school said in statement.

Haywood was released on $1,000 cash bond following an incident at his South Bend home, said an officer at the St. Joseph County Jail who declined to give her name. She said Haywood was scheduled to appear in court at 1 p.m. on Monday.

"We will immediately reopen our search for a head football coach, expanding the process to include a larger pool of candidates," the school said in a statement. "Our goal is to move swiftly, but prudently, to find the right person to successfully lead the Pitt football program for what we hope will be an extended period of time."

The charge against Haywood was upgraded from misdemeanor domestic violence to felony domestic battery in the presence of a minor, the officer said. She did not know whether Haywood had an attorney and his phone number was not listed.

The NCAA, at work, protecting "our" traditions.

ESPN could have kept the game on ABC, they are all owned by Disney.

There are currently no games on network and just one today. New Years used to be wall to wall football across all the networks.

It was bad enough when ESPN swallowed up ABC sports.

The BCS should be split amongst all the major networks and all played on New Year's Day. None of this holding games off a week. Unless they are going to have a playoff system there is no reason to push games back.
 
Ah, thanks for the info. :eek: Sorry, NCAA, it's not about revenue from bowl games, after all. :rolleyes:

So, Disney doesn't want you to watch it for free, via commercial TV, they want you to pay to watch it, via commercial cable.

Someone light a fire under ol' Walt. He might have a different view.

while that would be nice we already have proof the NCAA stop caring about what is right a long time ago.

I fully expect Newton to lose his Hesmen trophy in a few years. Alburns wins all to go bye bye after this year.
This along with other schools this year as well. It was all about the put greed.
NCAA wants the most money possible so that means spreading it out. Best thing we could do is boycott watching the games on TV completely. Make the ratings drop.
