if you like college football watch this game!
#5 BCS Florida vs #8 BCS Georgia
Florida got caught napping by a young Ole MIss team and since has POUNDED Arkansas, LSU, and Kentucky trying to regain their chance at the National Title.
Georgia battled some injuries early and lost a nail biter to Alabama's since then they have been on their own roll including a 52 to 38 THUMPING of LSU in the Bayou Bengals cage.
These two teams want theire swagger back and KNOW that pounding on the other one is a ticket up in the BCS. Add to that the fact they HATE each other too. WHOOO DOGGY Gators versus Bulldawgs it does not get better!
and a game that does not look like much now but could have a bigger impact than you think later on
Notre Dame versus Pitt
both are 2 lose teams with loads of underclassmen running NFL schemes niether of these teams factor into the title picture (unlike the four above) but they could be contenders to push a better team out of the BCS. Pitt has a chance to win the Big East an play spolier in the BCS picture should they win out. Notre Dame is on the verge (18 of 23 offensive TDs this season scored by a Freshman or Sophmore) but a year away from being a really good football team, but they are still Notre Dame and running their own schedule will see them beat top 30 teams Pitt and Boston College and pre season favorite USC. Even I think that is a far fetched scenario, but improving every week is a key. Notre Dame NEEDS this win to step forward into the top 25. Pittsburgh NEEDS this win to propell them toward the Big East title. Whats more winning this game PROBABLY lets Dave Wannstedt retain his job.
more reasons to watch
Notre Dame Soph QB Jimmy Clausen is on pace to shatter EVERY Notre Dame passing record
Notre Dame Frosh WR Micheal Floyd is shattering Notre Dame receiving records every time he steps on the field. He set the record for Frosh TDs last week, with one reception this week he sets the Frosh record for number of receptions, and EVERY time he touches the ball you hear the stadium take a breath.
Pitt Soph RB LeSean McCoy has already broken the Pitt shcool record for TDs in two seasons set by the LEGENDARY Tony Dorsett. McCoy has four consecutive games of 142 or more yards and 11 in his short career.
wtach some college football this weekend kids!

Tech comes out firing to take an early lead, Texas battes back in the second half, but Tech puts it in the hands of future NFL wr Crabtree and ices the game.The goal post come down and Texas Tech gets a seat at the BCS table, at least until next week versus OSU.
Florida thumps the mighty DWAGS defense as they continue to roll over opponents in an effort to scratch, kick, and BITE their way into the national title picture.
Notre Dame jumps up early and looks to be rolling over Pitt only to find out yet again that there are four quarters in a football game. LeSean is a BAD ARSE I mean BAD ARSE running back. Michael Flyod lived up to billing, Golden Tate was AMAZING but in the end (just like versus North Carolina) the youth on Notre Dame's team simply was not menatlly tough enough to finish and they lost a nail biter an older team would have won.
GREAT football folks I hope you caught some of it.

Tech showed some GUTS in that game
Coming back with under 2 minutes
I worry for them however...
a week long preperation for Texas
an emotional come back win
playing in Norman in two weeks where no Big 12 school has won in 7 years
and this week they have a TOUGH OSU team in Lubbock
not a good week to be caught sleeping

sucks man
teams do not respect the kicker enough these days
hell Tech has a guy that won a contest kicking for them
Notre Dame brought in a guy from an inter mural squad to kick who had never played organized football at a level higher than pop warner

Re: Random College Crap
Florida State defensive back Myron Rolle has a busy day on NOV 22, 2008
First thing in the morning Rolle will participate in a finalist interview for a Rhodes Scholarship in Alabama
Then Myron Rolle will board a private jet and be flown to Maryland
Where he will take his place as a Lott Trophy finalist safety with the Florida State Seminols as they battle the Maryland Terapins for a shot at the ACC title.
Rolle got his 4 year pre-med degree in just over 2 years, and is nearign the completeion of his masters degree. All while playing college football at an all american level
ESPN agreed to move the game back
The NCAA is allowing FSU to pay for the charter flight
this is a great thing
to have a child succeed in such a special way in both academics and sports has to make his parents proud

funny you should say that
I was trying to research if Samari, Antrel, and Myron were related (they are not) and I found that one of the largest owners of slaves in Florida was named Rolle which is why so many black families have the name.
I bet the same research would find another such named Moss.

Re: Random College Crap
Tyrone Willingham says there are not enough black head coaches in football
A point that could be true
However it would be a point better made by a coach that does not get fired every two years for being horrible
When Willingham mouths off it just sounds like a two time loser begging for a job.
"Obviously, we've got to remake the system," Willingham said. "It's not working."
on this point he is 100% right the system is not working because people keep giving him chances to screw up their programs

Re: Random College Crap
6'4 230 pound high school LBs that can also play TE and LS usually find somewhere to play in college but their are speed concerns at the next level
I know West Virgina was taking a look but if he goes to a smaller school he has a better chance at a full ride
and rest assured Jared Heller will play on Saturdays after next season
