Steve Dykes

What are you watching right now?

Jason Kirk [10:33 PM]:

Aight y’all, with the few big games winding down (and blowouty), gonna go ahead and shut Live down for the day. Thank you for joining us! Let’s do it again next week, with better or even better results for your team!


Oh No Romo [10:32 PM]:

Air Force makes field goal and takes lead.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [10:32 PM]:

Yep, Michigan’s not going to score tonight.


Navy_Rebel [10:32 PM]:

@Spencer Hall He’s still mad cause it was Bully who won last week and not him


Mark H Schipper [10:32 PM]:

Presbyterian won a historic night game at Bailey Memorial Stadium 69-14 over Bluefield College. All quiet on that front, thank god.


Oh No Romo [10:28 PM]:

Air Force is moving the ball quickly across the field on Wyoming to start this game.


Spencer Hall [10:28 PM]:

@Navy_Rebel that’s because he has not said something bad about Clemson today


Siems [10:28 PM]:

@Navy_Rebel Well yeah. His team almost lost to a directional Carolina that does not exist.


Navy_Rebel [10:27 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Spurrier is still not happy, tho


Mark H Schipper [10:27 PM]:

Idaho & Louisiana-Monroe straight deadlocked at 21 in the 2nd quarter


Spencer Hall [10:26 PM]:

The Piratical threat is over, South Carolina pulls away


Spencer Hall [10:20 PM]:

The Hokies have never committed a personal foul under Frank Beamer.


Mark H Schipper [10:18 PM]:

@nate.siems If you go to Toronto you can get those deux deux deuxs.


Oh No Romo [10:16 PM]:


Navy_Rebel [10:14 PM]:

Northwestern State demon flames in their logo represent the dumpster fire which is their game vs Baylor right now


Jason Kirk [10:14 PM]:

Virginia Tech-Ohio State back now on ESPN!


jacob.whittaker [10:13 PM]:

San Diego State beating North Carolina because North Carolina.


Siems [10:12 PM]:

@mark.schipper.18 If South Bend is America’s city, I think I’ll move to Toronto


Mark H Schipper [10:11 PM]:

Critical update: America’s team Notre Dame is beating America’s other team Michigan by a score of 28-0. That game is in America’s City, South Bend.


Oh No Romo [10:11 PM]:

Hey, a Texas touchdown.


jacob.whittaker [10:11 PM]:

Colorado State Boise State starts in five. Should be surprisingly good.


Jason Kirk [10:10 PM]:

BYU


Jason Kirk [10:10 PM]:

ON


Jason Kirk [10:10 PM]:

SCORED


Jason Kirk [10:10 PM]:

TEXAS


Navy_Rebel [10:10 PM]:

Patience. We’ve got allllllnight. But I’d start filling those sandbags now. :)

Navy_Rebel [10:10 PM]:

#TEXASTEARS


Jason Kirk [10:09 PM]:

basically:


Jason B. Hirschhorn [10:09 PM]:

Oh no Michigan. You gave up the football again.


Oh No Romo [10:09 PM]:

B1G


Passive Voice [10:08 PM]:

I’m gonna go mow the lawn. But Texas Tech in El Paso at 9 local should be twilight zone football.


Navy_Rebel [10:08 PM]:

@Jason Kirk BYU threatening to run the score up?


ProbablyMonty [10:07 PM]:

It’s probably fine if I wear full Duck gear in to my college professorin’ on Monday, right? I’m thinking yeah.


Jason Kirk [10:07 PM]:

Watching BYU-Texas here!


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [10:07 PM]:

8within


Mark H Schipper [10:07 PM]:

North Carolina getting pummeled at home vs SDSU is starting to feel like a referendum on Thomas Wolfe & whatever else there is in the world besides Thomas Wolfe


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [10:06 PM]:

The only game I have withing 7 is Carolina down 7 to San Diego St


Navy_Rebel [10:06 PM]:

Just flipped over to EC – SC


Siems [10:06 PM]:

@Pete Volk Put in a Simpsons DVD


Pete Volk [10:05 PM]:

@Pete Volk what are we*, dolt


Pete Volk [10:05 PM]:

So what are watching, folks?


Navy_Rebel [10:04 PM]:

Wish Ole Miss had Texas on the schedule this year as a warmup game again


Mark H Schipper [10:04 PM]:

B1G-PAC truck in favor of the West Coast means the world has come back to stasis


Whohah [10:03 PM]:

Ow ow texas ow


Jason Kirk [10:03 PM]:

Michigan State-Oregon final score: 3 things we learned from the Ducks' big victory

The Spartans started strong, but could not hold off Oregon’s comeback.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [10:02 PM]:

SD St v North Carolina is probably closest


Mark H Schipper [10:02 PM]:

@Passive Voice Let me know what bait they hit on


ProbablyMonty [10:02 PM]:

Thanks for being here with me for this game. I love you all.


Jason Kirk [10:01 PM]:

Nebraska almost lost to an FCS team, and it had one of the Big Ten’s best days.


Whohah [10:01 PM]:

It would be a Sparty move to get a first teamer injured here


Passive Voice [10:01 PM]:

casting about for a competitive game


Siems [10:01 PM]:

@Jason Kirk You’re forgetting the other and hardest opponent!


Jason Kirk [10:00 PM]:

UCLA, Baylor, Oklahoma in Texas’ next four.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [9:59 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni Well done sir


Jason Kirk [9:58 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni Excellent work


Spencer Hall [9:58 PM]:


Jason B. Hirschhorn [9:58 PM]:

Michigan’s defense has just about given up.


ProbablyMonty [9:57 PM]:

The real hero tonight is Bud Elliott for picking Oregon to cover.


Navy_Rebel [9:57 PM]:

Fork, meet Stick


Ryan Nanni [9:57 PM]:

this is basically everything i’ve ever worked for:


Mark H Schipper [9:57 PM]:

Sure, Oregon, just beat the spread – WHAT DO I CARE!?>>!?? :( fuck


Jason Kirk [9:56 PM]:


Jason Kirk [9:55 PM]:

it’s as if manny diaz wasn’t texas’ biggest problem


Matthew Kenerly [9:55 PM]:

ECU not done yet in Columbia!


Oh No Romo [9:54 PM]:

Another Hill TD for BYU


Spencer Hall [9:53 PM]:

Ah, Big Ten fans, just a few minutes away from resorting to waving around their diplomas as a last line of defense


Jason Kirk [9:51 PM]:


Ryan Nanni [9:50 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I’VE BEEN WAIITNG / FOR A DUCK LIKE YOU / TO GO AND BEAT THE TIDE


Clay Wendler [9:50 PM]:


Spencer Hall [9:49 PM]:

Why is Ohio State letting Virginia Tech do things it doesn’t like to do ( score TDs)


Jason Kirk [9:48 PM]:

I would really like for this to be the Oregon team we’ve all been waiting for all along.


Mark H Schipper [9:46 PM]:

Charles Davis is using confusing Henry James double negatives & I’m taking it personally


sandy.northrop.7 [9:46 PM]:

Touchdown Va Tech


Clay Wendler [9:45 PM]:


Jason Kirk [9:45 PM]:

Texas and Michigan trailing a combined 41-0


sandy.northrop.7 [9:45 PM]:

So if VT wins tonight, does the B1G get eliminated from playoff contention?


Clay Wendler [9:44 PM]:


Spencer Hall [9:43 PM]:

That tip was amazing. Lofted it like a beach ball.


Spencer Hall [9:43 PM]:

Tracked it at the very length of his reach


Jason Kirk [9:42 PM]:

Play of the season so far, y’all


Jack Peglow [9:42 PM]:

HOLY INTERCEPTION


Mark H Schipper [9:42 PM]:

ball don’t lie the redemption


ProbablyMonty [9:42 PM]:

(sings sportscenter noise)


Oh No Romo [9:42 PM]:

Oh my!


Charlie Gebow [9:42 PM]:

Holy crap


Pete Volk [9:42 PM]:

Holy cow what an interception


Mark H Schipper [9:41 PM]:

That was the most light weight kick catch interference call I’ve ever seen even if it was kick catch interference & maybe targeting.


Matthew Kenerly [9:41 PM]:

Just saw an article on Facebook that two guys in Maine caught a pair of albino lobster last week. Shouldn’t we demand that those lobster make college football picks next Saturday?


Jason Kirk [9:41 PM]:


ProbablyMonty [9:40 PM]:

YELLS: THAT WASN’T INTERFERENCE -- whispers: but it was probably helmet to helmet


Passive Voice [9:39 PM]:

awful call


Spencer Hall [9:39 PM]:

That’s not legal. It was also cool. That’s a basic conflict in the human soul, really.


Mark H Schipper [9:38 PM]:

Even though my parlay be in peril, I prefer Michigan State as an after-thought, really am much more comfortable that way


Jason Kirk [9:38 PM]:

Large_sb_nation_final

BYU's Taysom Hill is running all over Texas again, this time with a hurdle-for-TD

Remember last year when Taysom Hill had 259 yards and three touchdowns running against Texas? Well, he’s at it again. This time with a hurdle!


Jason Kirk [9:36 PM]:

@matthew_k Without question


Mark Sandritter [9:36 PM]:

If that was Fournette he would have done the Heisman pose mid hurdle.


Jason Kirk [9:36 PM]:

Michigan State OL signaling first down as ball appears to be a thousand miles short


Mark H Schipper [9:36 PM]:

MSU short six inches


Matthew Kenerly [9:36 PM]:

Honest question, if BYU wins this game, should I consider them for the #1 spot on this week’s Underdogs Poll? I had them at 2 behind Marshall last week.


Spencer Hall [9:35 PM]:

He’s short


Clay Wendler [9:35 PM]:


Passive Voice [9:34 PM]:

Ohio State just let VT convert on 3rd-and-17 from the Hokie like 3 yard line


Mark H Schipper [9:33 PM]:

@Clefo Was an unexplainable game wire to wire. Only TRUTH was UA trucked.


Spencer Hall [9:32 PM]:

@Jason Kirk sometimes I forget that the Walrus is the carpenter for their offense


Mark H Schipper [9:32 PM]:

Sean Kiko Alonso Walker


Charlie Gebow [9:32 PM]:

@mark.schipper.18 Such a strange game from the get-go before including the fact that we got suffocated by Wazzu of all teams at home the previous week


ProbablyMonty [9:32 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Why does he look like a sheepdog that just came out of a river?


Jason Kirk [9:32 PM]:


Jason Kirk [9:31 PM]:


Matthew Kenerly [9:31 PM]:

Bad pick by Shane Carden, and now South Carolina’s got a chance to really take command of this game


Matt Brown [9:30 PM]:

Taysom Hill’s hurdle for a TD there was dope as hell


Spencer Hall [9:30 PM]:

Security blanket stuff for Michigan State here: two tight ends, power running


Passive Voice [9:30 PM]:

Sparty 79 getting 30 yards downfield in a hurry


Mark H Schipper [9:29 PM]:

@Clefo SALUTE


Charlie Gebow [9:28 PM]:

@mark.schipper.18 Wasn’t in that other one HashtagBearDown


Spencer Hall [9:28 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni getting out of Tampa is a victory in itself, congratulations new Maryland head coach Gary Spivey


Mark H Schipper [9:27 PM]:

Shoulda bben UO in the Rose last year anyway. Marriota was badly gimped in the Furd game.


Ryan Nanni [9:27 PM]:

@Spencer Hall how dare you ignore Maryland’s brave win in Tampa


sandy.northrop.7 [9:27 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Outkast for Heisman


Passive Voice [9:26 PM]:

AHHH option blowd up in Columbus


Spencer Hall [9:25 PM]:

It might be up to Ohio State to restore some B1Gnity to the conference


Jason Kirk [9:24 PM]:

Cheer up, Big Ten fans! Ohio State’s within a score of Virginia Tech in Columbus!


ProbablyMonty [9:23 PM]:

It’s awkward having dual Ducks and Browns fandom. I find myself oddly completely convinced that Oregon will lose this game.


Spencer Hall [9:23 PM]:


sandy.northrop.7 [9:22 PM]:

Outkast 21-MSU 3


Teckiemom [9:22 PM]:

WTD!!!! Oh Yea!!


Jason Kirk [9:22 PM]:

Big Ten to the MAC


Kim McCauley [9:21 PM]:

and Sparty’s dead


Rodger Sherman [9:21 PM]:

buh-bye, MSU


Charlie Gebow [9:21 PM]:

Sparty nope


Pete Volk [9:21 PM]:

Quack


Spencer Hall [9:21 PM]:

A rushing TD!


Matt Brown [9:20 PM]:

Buckeyes miss their second FG of the game. Jim Tressel is rolling in his grade


Pete Volk [9:20 PM]:

(not including punts)


Pete Volk [9:19 PM]:

Michigan State has -2 yards of offense on their last nine plays.


Matthew Kenerly [9:19 PM]:

Also, I think we can call off the Chuckie Keeton Heisman campaign. 4-for-16 (!) with an INT against Idaho State so far.


Jason Kirk [9:18 PM]:


ProbablyMonty [9:17 PM]:

@Spencer Hall I want you to know that since I can’t be in Autzen anymore, your comments about Autzen give me all the happies.


Jason Kirk [9:16 PM]:

Arik Armstead KAIJU


Matthew Kenerly [9:16 PM]:

Upset alert in Lafayette: Louisiana Tech up on the Ragin’ Cajuns, 24-7, late third quarter


Spencer Hall [9:16 PM]:

More like Connor Shook


Matt Brown [9:15 PM]:

Ohio State finds Devin Smith on a bomb. Chicks dig the long ball, I’m told.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [9:14 PM]:

Halftime for Mich-ND. Irish lead 21-0.


Clay Wendler [9:14 PM]:


Teckiemom [9:14 PM]:

Yes!!! MUCH better! Way to get the train back on the track Oregon!!


Spencer Hall [9:14 PM]:

Since Oregon played Outkast, the Ducks have outscored Michigan State 14-3


Jason Kirk [9:14 PM]:

@Kevin McCauley not even close to it


sandy.northrop.7 [9:13 PM]:

@Spencer Hall We shouldn’t…Oregon played Outkast, Oregon is now winning


Kim McCauley [9:13 PM]:

@Jason Kirk none of them are in the B1G


Mark H Schipper [9:13 PM]:

@matthew_k Probably closer than the score tho


Jason Kirk [9:12 PM]:

Michigan State’s defense dares you to try for big plays. That’s a problem against a very small number of teams


Matthew Kenerly [9:12 PM]:

Meanwhile, Georgia Southern just opened a case of whoopass on poor Savannah State today. 83-9!


Kim McCauley [9:12 PM]:

Sparty >:(


Mark H Schipper [9:12 PM]:

Ducks on pace for 39.5


Spencer Hall [9:11 PM]:

Forget everything I said


Mark H Schipper [9:11 PM]:

You know humans are no better than sharks when sporting blood is in the water & injured teenagers are boo’d by 50K or so


Jason Kirk [9:11 PM]:

HORRIFIC day for the Big Ten.


ProbablyMonty [9:10 PM]:

Booing defensive players is the absolute ugliest thing my fellow Duck fans do. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.


Jason Kirk [9:10 PM]:

It’s like we’re getting a free Rose Bowl right now, even though the real Rose Bowl is free too. You know what I mean.


Spencer Hall [9:09 PM]:

Stop drawing up plays, Oregon


Jason B. Hirschhorn [9:09 PM]:

Everett Golson is the best player in MICH-ND and it’s not all that close


Matt Brown [9:08 PM]:

C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER for Ohio State


Mark H Schipper [9:08 PM]:

MSU had that screen too if Cook hadn’t made the worst throw possible in that scenario – or – alternatively – UO hadn’t made the best defensive play available


Spencer Hall [9:08 PM]:

Oregon’s defense harassing Connor Cook and shutting down the run has them back in this game. There are also out of O-shaped cookies.


Pete Volk [9:07 PM]:

Michigan State just achieved a 3x combo on that punt return coverage


ivan24 [9:06 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Oh, you mean on the field.


sandy.northrop.7 [9:04 PM]:

Va Tech is beating Ohio St 14-7 #goacc..wait thats not correct


Mark H Schipper [9:04 PM]:

@Jason Kirk It’s so sweet.


Clay Wendler [9:04 PM]:


Mark H Schipper [9:03 PM]:

Texas A&M, broadly, is an exacting hybrid of the cheerleading squads on ESPN2 & a paramilitary dojo w/strict uniform regulations.


Jason Kirk [9:03 PM]:

Damn, Vandy


Jason Kirk [9:02 PM]:

27-25 Spartans in the third after Mariota spotted a crater and threw a football into it


Charlie Gebow [9:02 PM]:


Jason Kirk [9:02 PM]:

MSU-Oregon is the game we all wanted it to be, huh?


ProbablyMonty [9:02 PM]:

Don’t make me believe again, Oregon. My heart can’t take it.


Rodger Sherman [9:01 PM]:

quack quack y’all


Jason Kirk [9:00 PM]:

Good point by Charles Davis. Marcus Mariota looking a little bit like second-year Johnny Manziel. Hesitant to be himself


Spencer Hall [8:59 PM]:

Making shit up, 17 yards gain


Pete Volk [8:59 PM]:

@Spencer Hall The man wearing the shirt did not find the choice of the word “option” quite as funny as I did


Mark H Schipper [8:59 PM]:

Marriota for Heisman


Spencer Hall [8:59 PM]:

Mariota just made some shit up. That’s what they should write in the box score


Spencer Hall [8:59 PM]:

@Pete Volk contrary to prior evidence


Jason Kirk [8:58 PM]:

Quite College Station


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:58 PM]:

Tuck rule debate breaking out for Michigan.


Pete Volk [8:58 PM]:

In other news, saw a Florida fan on the way home with a “Losing is not an option” shirt


Spencer Hall [8:58 PM]:

Georgia Southern is a very good football team


Pete Volk [8:58 PM]:

10, count ’em TEN rushing touchdowns for Georgia Southern today


Mark H Schipper [8:58 PM]:

Unpopular & irrational prediction of the night: Oregon beats Michigan State 39.5 to 37.


Ryan Nanni [8:57 PM]:

(lights candle for St. DAT, patron of special teams touchdowns)


Passive Voice [8:57 PM]:

BYU just cobbled together their first decent drive in an hour. Capped it off with an end zone INT.


Charlie Gebow [8:56 PM]:

Third and Long again, so MSU’s in good shape


Spencer Hall [8:55 PM]:

Autzen is still loud as hell despite obvious creeping doom


Jason Kirk [8:54 PM]:

stadium yellin


HoldenLink [8:53 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni the good ol “up up down down left right left right b a let-the-other-team-go-up-by-76 start” code


Mark H Schipper [8:53 PM]:

In what world is Michigan State the good football team in that fine fishy watery state . . . . never mind


Clay Wendler [8:53 PM]:


Pete Volk [8:53 PM]:

that ain’t sportsmanlike, FSU


Pete Volk [8:53 PM]:


Ryan Nanni [8:51 PM]:

@Jason Kirk That should reset the score to zero. Like it’s a secret video game code.


Spencer Hall [8:51 PM]:

In football news, Oregon’s defense has stumbled in late from the bar with purpose


Mark H Schipper [8:51 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Was it at least dignified? If it was dignified and well done I could understand it.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:50 PM]:

Notre Dame has a very special way of signalling false starts: http://twitpic.com/ebdagg


Spencer Hall [8:49 PM]:

@Jason Kirk THE SADDEST SAD FG


Spencer Hall [8:49 PM]:

Autzen has a salmon sandwich, btw. It’s really good. This is an important sandwich note from the Pac-12.


Jason Kirk [8:49 PM]:

cc Ryan Nanni


Jason Kirk [8:49 PM]:

Agree


Jason Kirk [8:47 PM]:

27-18 is still pretty weirdscorin’, btw.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:46 PM]:

Michigan and Notre Dame are really good at forcing third downs, but not holding on them.


Jason Kirk [8:45 PM]:

BIG TEN + BIG TYMERS y’all


Spencer Hall [8:45 PM]:

Oregon ran for a first down oregon ran for a first down call the cops


Clay Wendler [8:45 PM]:


Passive Voice [8:42 PM]:


Spencer Hall [8:42 PM]:

@Jason Kirk not even the littlest of giants can slay Dantonio


Jason Kirk [8:41 PM]:

@Spencer Hall are you trying to kill him


Pete Volk [8:41 PM]:

Offensive juggernaut Michigan State overcoming the mighty Oregon defense


Spencer Hall [8:41 PM]:

Or make it legal and clear, and watch Michigan State take a 27-18 lead


Passive Voice [8:41 PM]:

Texas’s defence is nasty. Offence also, but uh differently.


Spencer Hall [8:40 PM]:

FAKE IT MARK


Clay Wendler [8:40 PM]:


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:40 PM]:

Notre Dame almost muffed a punt inside their own 20. There will be “Peter” drills this week.


Jason Kirk [8:39 PM]:

Michigan State converts a third-and-17, and one year ago that would sound impossible against Purdue.


Spencer Hall [8:39 PM]:

@Milk Steak I bet he was


Spencer Hall [8:38 PM]:

OREGON JUST GAVE UP 3RD AND 17


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [8:38 PM]:

@Spencer Hall I misread that as Limpet and now I’m picturing Don Knotts as a crafty wide receiver.


Matt Brown [8:37 PM]:

Tech needs to stop cheatin


Spencer Hall [8:37 PM]:

Lippett is really good at pushing off without pushing off. I suspect he is already a master in shoving the DB off with his ass, aka THE ART OF BOOTYFIGHTING


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [8:37 PM]:

And by that mean punting


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [8:36 PM]:

@Jason Kirk They’re not use to playing the B1G way


Passive Voice [8:36 PM]:

oh please gif the sparty player doing the false start dance


Jason Kirk [8:36 PM]:


Jason Kirk [8:36 PM]:

Ducks collapsin’ a little bit. Two straight false starts while trying to punt.


Spencer Hall [8:36 PM]:

Oregon just lost their other tackle, and false-started twice in a row.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:35 PM]:

The Notre Dame announcers have entered the RIVALS portion of the program. Devin Gardner was highly recruited. Who knew?


Jason Kirk [8:34 PM]:

Spartans still getting to Mariota.


Matthew Kenerly [8:34 PM]:

Florida State up just 21-0 on Citadel. Overrated!


Wescott Eberts [8:33 PM]:

Hey, Texas has some discipline and physicality on defense this year.


Jason Kirk [8:33 PM]:

BOBBY PETRINO BACK.


Passive Voice [8:32 PM]:

yelling at clouds department: still think 10 yards for offensive holding is draconian


Pete Volk [8:32 PM]:


Spencer Hall [8:31 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni thank you, Cyrus


Ryan Nanni [8:30 PM]:


Jason Kirk [8:29 PM]:

Michigan State-Oregon back underway on Fox.


Matthew Kenerly [8:29 PM]:

#collegekickers strikes again, and ECU is the victim. Blocked kick is a huge break for South Carolina


Jason Kirk [8:27 PM]:

Rap song bumper music for MSU-Oregon includes lyric “NEVER HAD NO SCHOLARSHIP” #studentathletes


Clay Wendler [8:27 PM]:


Jason Kirk [8:24 PM]:

@Spencer Hall it wasn’t in “rock band” so i can’t confirm but it’s definitely that kind of music


Jason Kirk [8:23 PM]:


Wescott Eberts [8:23 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Indomitable spirit on that one


Spencer Hall [8:23 PM]:

@Jason Kirk please say it was rush


Oh No Romo [8:22 PM]:

Wait, NBC is showing Notre Dame and Purdue in primetime!?


Jason Kirk [8:22 PM]:

NBC playing prog rock as Michigan-Notre Dame bumper music, and nothing has ever made more sense.


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:20 PM]:

I’ll never not see David Terrell when a Michigan WR #1 makes a big play.


Clay Wendler [8:20 PM]:


Jason Kirk [8:20 PM]:

That’s Leonard Fournette hitting the Heisman pose after scoring on an FCS opponent in Week 2.


Clay Wendler [8:20 PM]:


Jason Kirk [8:19 PM]:

Oregon powering up via song, per press box report.


Spencer Hall [8:18 PM]:

OREGON BACK


Spencer Hall [8:18 PM]:

They’re playing “I like the way you move” now


Ryan Nanni [8:18 PM]:

Hey, a timeline of great ND-Michigan games! Boy, those are a lot of white people over the years!


Spencer Hall [8:18 PM]:

WAIT


Jason Kirk [8:16 PM]:

@Spencer Hall You did all you could.


Spencer Hall [8:15 PM]:

He has not delivered, and Oregon is losing. I rest my case.


Spencer Hall [8:15 PM]:

Autzen has a DJ and I requested some Outkast


Jason Kirk [8:14 PM]:

Jpeg-26.0.0_standard_249.0

Your frightening fans of the day, from Alabama and Oregon

These are two ways to alter your body to support your team of choice.


Spencer Hall [8:13 PM]:

It’s a love story, mostly about Lee Corso and a Duck


Jason B. Hirschhorn [8:13 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I wonder if Helrich will try to refocus the ground game. Oregon can’t do worse than the first half.


Jason Kirk [8:12 PM]:

icymi


Jason Kirk [8:12 PM]:

Large_sb_nation_final

Lee Corso kisses Oregon Duck, turns into a duck

The Duck refused to pick Stanford-USC, and Corso loved him for it.


Matt Brown [8:12 PM]:

Well hey, looks like that Ohio State secondary is a teensy bit better.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [8:11 PM]:

Is it weird that I’m kinda rooting for Texas and their Homer Simpson little league coach roster management?


Mark H Schipper [8:11 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Well, the Brittany Murphy Lifetime movie is on . . . PSYCHE! Michigan-Notre Dame (psych about watching it, it is on)


Matthew Kenerly [8:11 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I nominate SDSU/UNC


Jason Kirk [8:10 PM]:

What are we watching during MSU-Oregon half?


Matt Brown [8:06 PM]:

BREAKING: Ohio Stadium looks loud.


Spencer Hall [8:06 PM]:

If Oregon doesn’t have the middle of the field passing I don’t know what else they have.


Clay Wendler [8:06 PM]:


Jason Kirk [8:05 PM]:

24-18 is still a pretty weird score. Especially because it involves 24 first-half Michigan State points.


Rodger Sherman [8:05 PM]:

sparty yo


Ryan Nanni [8:05 PM]:

The Pac-12 is in Sark’s hands. Oh god.


Mark H Schipper [8:04 PM]:

@Clay Wendler That was the Trombetti pelvis separator I mentioned earlier – it was like in Goldeneye when the train hit the tank


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [8:04 PM]:

Sparty ho


Wescott Eberts [8:04 PM]:

@Clay Wendler damn son


Clay Wendler [8:03 PM]:


The Big Cup [8:03 PM]:

Can I use the Oregon -Michigan State game to determine which bandwagon I join?


Wescott Eberts [8:03 PM]:

Would have to spend some time thinking where Taysom Hill sits on my all-time list of running QBs who scare the hell out of me, but Hill is near the top


Jason Kirk [8:02 PM]:

@matthew_k Appreciate attention to detail


Matt Brown [8:02 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Yup, followed by the occasional, “FETCH!”


Spencer Hall [8:01 PM]:

Michigan State hurrying is like your watching your grandfather run. It can happen, but you’re terrified of watching it happen for too long


Matthew Kenerly [8:01 PM]:

San José State is really battling Auburn in this first half. And yes, use of the accent mark is required.


Oh No Romo [8:01 PM]:

BYU has to settle for the field goal. They’re up 3-0.


Jason Kirk [8:00 PM]:

Fear the Michigan State two-minute drive. Everyone on each side does.


Spencer Hall [7:59 PM]:

@Matt Brown I hear the same thing I always hear when watching BYU run the ball hard. “Sorry.” [boom] “Sorry about that.”


Matt Brown [7:58 PM]:

BYU is running the ball down Texas’ throat right now, should score on this drive


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [7:58 PM]:

I think watching that tackle grew more hair on my chest


Mark H Schipper [7:58 PM]:

Ummm, Khalid Hill just destroyed a Notre Dame freshman called Trombetti – it was tank on tank


Spencer Hall [7:58 PM]:

@Peter Berkes I think it’s that they’re only beating Citadel by 7 in them


wahoocrew [7:58 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I think it’s the crossed spears


Passive Voice [7:57 PM]:

bah. billion-yard Hill td run called back on a hold.


Oh No Romo [7:57 PM]:

@Passive Voice Big break for Texas with that holding call.


Peter Berkes [7:57 PM]:

@Jason Kirk They look entirely normal to me


Passive Voice [7:56 PM]:

Taysom HIll runnin by Texas already


Jason Kirk [7:56 PM]:

FSU fans currently angry about these helmets. I do not know why.


SarcasticJack [7:56 PM]:

Not sure how, but Michigan’s O-line appears to have learned how to play football


Rodger Sherman [7:56 PM]:

THE CITADEL HANGIN IN THERE WITH FLORIDA STATE


Mark H Schipper [7:55 PM]:

This may be a touch off the main thread, but, Michigan Man or not, the sweet corn up there this time of year is a real treat.


Spencer Hall [7:55 PM]:

I don’t know if Dantonio can go for two. Like, goes to hold up two with his hands and his fingers just cramp and refuse to do it


Teckiemom [7:55 PM]:

This is a very good test for our new Ducks defensive coordinator. Come on Guys! Get it together!!


Jason Kirk [7:54 PM]:

NOOOOO GIVE US A DOUBLE 18ER


Peter Berkes [7:54 PM]:

I want to get an apartment with this game.


Spencer Hall [7:53 PM]:

A gorgeous route on that TD


Peter Berkes [7:53 PM]:

That was among the least believable options plays I”ve ever seen


Jason Kirk [7:53 PM]:

I’m not even sure I follow each step of the analogy, but I laughed.


Jason Kirk [7:53 PM]:


Oh No Romo [7:52 PM]:

Texas drive ends with a missed field goal.


Ryan Nanni [7:52 PM]:

@Spencer Hall no falling in the press box


Spencer Hall [7:52 PM]:

Michigan State using the hurry up and I am about to fall off my chair laughing


Clay Wendler [7:52 PM]:


jacob.whittaker [7:52 PM]:

LSU politely waited two minutes to score its first touchdown on Sam Houston State.


Jason Kirk [7:52 PM]:

Michigan State remains the country’s best rollouts team, FWIW.


Jason Kirk [7:49 PM]:

By both I mean its first two. Lot of bad typing by me.


Spencer Hall [7:49 PM]:

Sparty getting frantic pressure with three and four linemen.


Rodger Sherman [7:49 PM]:

its almost like michigan state is good at defense


Jason Kirk [7:49 PM]:

Reports of Notre Dame using both time outs during its opening drive.


Spencer Hall [7:48 PM]:

THAT ONE TOO


Spencer Hall [7:48 PM]:

THIS ROAD IS CLOSED MARCUS


Siems [7:48 PM]:

Good thing that KU is playing SeMO. Gives me way too much false hope for the season


Oh No Romo [7:48 PM]:

Notre Dame has burned two timeouts to avoid delay of game penalties already.


Matthew Kenerly [7:47 PM]:

Also, to no one’s surprise, New Mexico is doing New Mexico things and are already down 22-0 at home to Arizona State. There’s four minutes left in the first quarter.


Jason Kirk [7:46 PM]:

@matthew_k We’ll have to ask NASA to be sure


Spencer Hall [7:46 PM]:

@matthew_k we’ll have to verify that with their one beat reporter


Matthew Kenerly [7:45 PM]:

FIU up 27-3 on Wagner at halftime… or are they?


Andrew Huster [7:44 PM]:

Bring on VT @ OSU.


Andrew Huster [7:44 PM]:

Ole Miss @ Vandy finally over.


Spencer Hall [7:44 PM]:

Could be that it’s early in the season and everyone’s still relatively fresh.


Spencer Hall [7:43 PM]:

Maybe I just missed football, but open field tackling feels like it’s been really good so far


Matt Brown [7:43 PM]:

BYU is going to need to learn how to snap the ball if they want to win this game


Jason Kirk [7:42 PM]:

This year, swing passes seem likelier than ever before to get the receiver digested.


ProbablyMonty [7:42 PM]:

It’s pretty clear from his repeated use of “bodyshots” that Gus’s mind is still on his trip to Tampa over the summer


Rodger Sherman [7:42 PM]:

bodyshots?


Jason Kirk [7:42 PM]:

Has any announcer dropped a “#fleshbomb” today?


Jason Kirk [7:41 PM]:

#bodyshots


Peter Berkes [7:41 PM]:

Bodyshots!


jacob.whittaker [7:39 PM]:

One shining moment is over for San Jose State. :(


schwizzy [7:38 PM]:

Chris Brown is doing that thing he did last football season again isn’t he?


Jason Kirk [7:38 PM]:

An 18er is still pretty weird!


Mark H Schipper [7:37 PM]:

Should Dantonio fake this kickoff return just to turn momentum


Clay Wendler [7:37 PM]:


Mark H Schipper [7:36 PM]:

Oregon seam route = Michigan State pain


Jason Kirk [7:35 PM]:

(Bud picked Oregon to cover.)


Luke Zimmermann [7:35 PM]:

NBD, just the best free safety in the country giving up a 70 yard TD.


Teckiemom [7:35 PM]:

Way to take it to the house!!! GO DUCKS!!!


Spencer Hall [7:35 PM]:

Oregon’s picking on the same thing every time.


Peter Berkes [7:35 PM]:

TRIANGLE!


Charlie Gebow [7:34 PM]:

Sparty no!


Siems [7:34 PM]:

@taffyowner917 That’s okay. That team in Fargo makes up for the ineptitude in Grand Forks


Spencer Hall [7:34 PM]:

NUKE


taffyowner917 [7:33 PM]:

in your FCS news, North Dakota is losing to Robert Morris 6-0… we’re really bad at football


Matt Brown [7:33 PM]:

LETS GO MORMONS


Jason Kirk [7:32 PM]:


Mark H Schipper [7:32 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Did Kant say that?


Jack Peglow [7:32 PM]:


Jason Kirk [7:31 PM]:

It’s a day for celebrating things. What things? Things that can be celebrated.


ProbablyMonty [7:31 PM]:

@nate.siems I think you mean bacon of health.


Passive Voice [7:31 PM]:

@nate.siems He’s at Iowa State now eh? Just chewin his way up to Winnipeg?


Peter Berkes [7:31 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Midwestern values makes one forget such frivolities


Jason Kirk [7:30 PM]:

Dammit, 11-7. How could I forget the elevener in progress


Siems [7:30 PM]:

@wahoocrew Good to see Mark is still a beacon of health


Spencer Hall [7:30 PM]:

Touchdown Sparty. They got out the tractor on that drive.


wahoocrew [7:30 PM]:

This had to have been on purpose


Jason Kirk [7:30 PM]:

8-6. Michigan State should go for two in the most manball way possible, for narrative purposes.


Mark H Schipper [7:30 PM]:

DANTONIO MACHIAVELLIAN SPEED COUNTER STRIKE


Spencer Hall [7:29 PM]:

And that’s appalling run defense


Rodger Sherman [7:28 PM]:

IT ISN’T VERY NICE


Mark H Schipper [7:27 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Great formations.


Rodger Sherman [7:27 PM]:

WILL YOU GUYS STOP DROPPING IN THINGS ABOUT NIU-NORTHWESTERN


Andrew Huster [7:27 PM]:

@Spencer Hall I mean, not game clock-wise. Points-wise, it’s been over for some time.


Jason Kirk [7:27 PM]:


Spencer Hall [7:27 PM]:

Oh god Ole Miss/Vandy isn’t over.


Andrew Huster [7:26 PM]:

9 minutes of Ole Miss-Vandy torment left


Charlie Gebow [7:26 PM]:

@Matt Brown When you think about it isn’t everyone a Heisman candidate?


Matt Brown [7:26 PM]:

Dunno about Shilique Calhoun being a Heisman candidate there, Fox.


Rodger Sherman [7:26 PM]:

@Luke Zimmermann gotta save em for when it counts


Spencer Hall [7:26 PM]:

@Luke Zimmermann Todd Graham is a diiiiiiiiiick


Luke Zimmermann [7:25 PM]:

Arizona State just did an end around wide receiver pass for two against New Mexico


Rodger Sherman [7:25 PM]:

elevener


Luke Zimmermann [7:24 PM]:

must be


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [7:24 PM]:

Hey guys, did you know six turnovers is bad. WELL IT IS.


Luke Zimmermann [7:24 PM]:


Charlie Gebow [7:24 PM]:

Vandy sad field goal!


Jason Kirk [7:23 PM]:

Florida averaging 65-0 margin through two weeks.


Ian Boyd [7:22 PM]:


Peter Berkes [7:21 PM]:

Please Gods, bring us an Oregon safety so we can get to 11-2


Andrew Huster [7:21 PM]:

Vandy got some points!


Jason Kirk [7:21 PM]:

ELEVENER


Spencer Hall [7:21 PM]:

WE GOT AN ELEVENER


Clay Wendler [7:21 PM]:


Spencer Hall [7:19 PM]:

Let me show you the middle of Michigan State’s secondary:


ProbablyMonty [7:19 PM]:

That passing play made me feel feelings


Jason Kirk [7:19 PM]:

Florida and Arkansas have combined for 138 points against [mumbles].


wahoocrew [7:19 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Wolpfack


Peter Berkes [7:17 PM]:

what in the blue hell


Jason Kirk [7:17 PM]:

BIG DUDE WITH SWORD (Getty)


Mark H Schipper [7:16 PM]:

Vandy down 41-0 late, so probably not coming back, and I consider it to be a Stanford sympathy rollover from tip to tail.


Ian Boyd [7:15 PM]:

@Peter Berkes That was my internal process just now


Passive Voice [7:15 PM]:

Man B1G has dropped two games to the MAC already today but it could be (or still get) a lot worse.


Ian Boyd [7:15 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Oh that’s the punter! Haha, I get it!


Jason Kirk [7:14 PM]:

Rough start continues for Carolina!


Peter Berkes [7:14 PM]:

Sadler is a Heisman candidate, so good on MSU for getting the ball in his hands.


ProbablyMonty [7:14 PM]:

@Peter Berkes You’re gonna get letters from garbage workers about defamation


Ian Boyd [7:13 PM]:

Bad throw by Cook there, more accurate and that’s at least a first


Spencer Hall [7:13 PM]:

P U N T I N G I S W I N N I N G


Peter Berkes [7:13 PM]:

off-topic: Vanderbilt is absolute garbage


Spencer Hall [7:12 PM]:

Oregon fans looking at the huddle and openly guffawing


Ian Boyd [7:12 PM]:

Seems like much of Oregon’s recruiting success comes from convincing bball players that their best bet is football


Clay Wendler [7:11 PM]:


Peter Berkes [7:10 PM]:


Charlie Gebow [7:09 PM]:

I’m glad Oregon’s patented bastard two-point conversions didn’t leave with Kelly


Teckiemom [7:09 PM]:

And 2 more points makes it 8!


Jason Kirk [7:09 PM]:

C H I P B A C K


Oh No Romo [7:09 PM]:


Ian Boyd [7:09 PM]:

I’d venture to guess that Sparty wasn’t ready for that 2 pt conversion attempt


Peter Berkes [7:09 PM]:

Thought Tyner got stood up at first, but really good extra effort to get in the end zone pretty easily.


Teckiemom [7:08 PM]:

TOUCHDOWN Ducks!!


Ian Boyd [7:08 PM]:

Gotta love that shot of a Spartan helmet resting just short of the goal line


Spencer Hall [7:07 PM]:

YOU’RE WELCOME, SPARTY


Matthew Kenerly [7:07 PM]:

Should we be surprised that Old Dominion is up 21-10 on NC State?


ProbablyMonty [7:06 PM]:

I think the logic had to have been, “The fade route would be incredibly stupid here, so they won’t be expecting it”


Ian Boyd [7:06 PM]:

@Clay Wendler My ability to do internet-based research tells me that’s Jack Conklin, Sparty’s left tackle


Spencer Hall [7:06 PM]:

I’m going to just guess that they do NOT get this


Ryan Nanni [7:06 PM]:

Dan Rubenstein is “I’m sorry, we’re out of tacos” level mad right now.


Clay Wendler [7:05 PM]:


Peter Berkes [7:05 PM]:

Oregon deserves nothing here for going fade route on 3rd and goal.


Jason Kirk [7:04 PM]:

DO IT HELF.


Ian Boyd [7:04 PM]:

Oregon should invest in just 1 fullback for the purpose of short yardage situations. Seems like short-yardage is an issue for them, am I wrong?


Spencer Hall [7:04 PM]:

Shoulda kicked on third down, Ducks.


Mark H Schipper [7:04 PM]:

I have a three game parlay starting with MSU beating that spread but not the Ducks & I’ve never felt so alive


Spencer Hall [7:02 PM]:

Even Michigan State’s mistakes are admirably violent


Ian Boyd [7:02 PM]:

@Clay Wendler wow, lol


Spencer Hall [7:02 PM]:

This game was in a bit of a lull, and well that’s over now


Teckiemom [7:02 PM]:

INTERCEPTED!!!! Go Ducks!!!


ProbablyMonty [7:02 PM]:

Interesting choice by Connor Cook to replace the football with a dead duck stuffed with a bowling ball


Clay Wendler [7:01 PM]:


Jason Kirk [7:01 PM]:

INT followed by deep shot. CHIP IS BACK


Peter Berkes [7:01 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Flying uncontrollably to freedom!


Spencer Hall [7:01 PM]:

Ball did really fly out of Connor Cook’s hand there


Rodger Sherman [7:01 PM]:

Oregon’s defenders-turned-blockers misseda guy.


Ryan Nanni [7:00 PM]:

Put that man at free safety. It won’t work out, except when it does.


Peter Berkes [7:00 PM]:

hahahahaholy smokes that tackle


Ian Boyd [7:00 PM]:

OL number 74 was shot out of a cannon to make that tackle


Jason Kirk [7:00 PM]:

Let’s Cook


Ian Boyd [7:00 PM]:

@Passive Voice Traverse city is a beautiful place. They must run it like kings


Spencer Hall [7:00 PM]:

HOLY CRAP WHAT A HIT


Matt Brown [7:00 PM]:

This Maryland/USF game has become such a depressing pillowfight


FloridaMan352 [6:59 PM]:

Treon Harris statline: 2/2 148 yds. 2 TDs. Floridas Offense might be effective this year.


Peter Berkes [6:59 PM]:

@Ian Boyd I knew he played well last year, but I just never noticed the ball fly out of his hand like this


Passive Voice [6:58 PM]:


Ian Boyd [6:58 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Yes, he was brilliant down the stretch last year.


Jason Kirk [6:58 PM]:

1410044155

Trevor Siemian injures his leg

He was helped off the field.


Peter Berkes [6:57 PM]:

Has Connor Cook always had an arm like this? How am I just noticing this now?


Ian Boyd [6:57 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Heard it here first (maybe), Connor Cook’s heisman campaign starts tonight


Spencer Hall [6:57 PM]:

Just eyeballing this after like seven minutes? I think Oregon’s gonna get its ass kicked in the second half


Peter Berkes [6:55 PM]:

@Ian Boyd Always one more than previously estimated


Matthew Kenerly [6:54 PM]:

@Spencer Hall Cyberdrummond?


Jason Kirk [6:54 PM]:

USC vs. Stanford final score: 3 things we learned from the Trojans' stunning win

For a while it looked like the Cardinal may run away with it. Things changed drastically.


Ian Boyd [6:53 PM]:

Was that another Bullough on that tackle? How many Bulloughs are there in the world?


Oh No Romo [6:53 PM]:

Ball State fumbles, Iowa ball. They dodged a pretty big bullet.


Peter Berkes [6:53 PM]:

And now, we feast upon Oregon-Michigan State. This is just delightful.


Jason Kirk [6:53 PM]:

Narduzzi eatin’.


Passive Voice [6:52 PM]:

ugh, the “think about all USC’s been through!” angle.


ProbablyMonty [6:51 PM]:

My wife’s asking me when I want to eat dinner, and I’m trying to explain to her in a nice way that since I’m an Oregon fan my stomach is currently up in my sinuses


Charlie Gebow [6:51 PM]:

@Peter Berkes I still remember the Rose Bowl vividly, Sark might not be the mitigating factor there


Spencer Hall [6:51 PM]:

Michigan State’s defense hits so ridiculously hard and in numbers. It has to look like a DOOM level for Oregon ballcarriers.


Spencer Hall [6:50 PM]:

@Jason Kirk search your feelings


Peter Berkes [6:50 PM]:

Sark continues to make Shaw coach like an idiot


Jason Kirk [6:50 PM]:

@Spencer Hall DO WE HAVE TO DO THIS RIGHT NOW


Ian Boyd [6:50 PM]:

Anyone else ever notice that Oregon is never ranked in the top 10 in recruiting but are consistently loaded with athletes?


Spencer Hall [6:50 PM]:

There is zero chance David Shaw doesn’t end up coaching the Falcons


ProbablyMonty [6:49 PM]:

QUICK, WRITE DOWN THE PAC-12 STANDINGS IN SHARPIE ON YOUR WALLS SOMEWHERE FOR POSTERITY


Peter Berkes [6:49 PM]:

That’s the type of thing that’ll happen when your game plan is “do as little as possible,” Stanford


Clay Wendler [6:49 PM]:


Jason Kirk [6:49 PM]:

PAT HADEN IS GONNA BURN DOWN A FATBURGER WOOOOOOOO


jacob.whittaker [6:48 PM]:

I know that someone has to win every game, but still


Ian Boyd [6:48 PM]:

There are few images in football better than that of a QB throwing nothing while being sent airborne by a blindside rusher


Oh No Romo [6:47 PM]:

Rudock to Duzey who runs it in for the score.


Matthew Kenerly [6:47 PM]:

USC’s defense just came up large by forcing that fumble. Man.


Mark H Schipper [6:47 PM]:

Now that Stanfurd has Furd’d away their game are Fowler and Herbstreit beaming to Eugene or has a separate team been tapped for that mission?


Rodger Sherman [6:47 PM]:

At least Stanford didn’t miss a field goal!


Oh No Romo [6:47 PM]:

Touchdown Iowa


Jason Kirk [6:47 PM]:

BALL OUT” — Chris Fowler, out of context. The context is USC forcing a fumble and winning at Stanford.


Charlie Gebow [6:47 PM]:

Like that!


chuckycrater [6:47 PM]:

Iowa really needs to lose this game to purge that F1NTZ1 virus.


Spencer Hall [6:46 PM]:

Oregon’s DBs are bailing out their line. Ducks not generating anything like pass rush on Connor Cook yet.


Jason Kirk [6:46 PM]:


Siems [6:46 PM]:

Big hit from Oregon


Ian Boyd [6:45 PM]:

So what’s the story on the Stanford kicker, anyways? Was this his week to be in the tree?


Oh No Romo [6:45 PM]:


Charlie Gebow [6:45 PM]:

How will Stanford blow this RZ opportunity?


Rodger Sherman [6:45 PM]:

If this comes down to a Stanford field goal….


Ian Boyd [6:45 PM]:

@Jason Kirk That’s astounding within the needed context of their 10 points


Jason Kirk [6:44 PM]:


jacob.whittaker [6:44 PM]:

Washington holds on for the win, but I think the Playoff Committee will still give EWU a good look at the end of the year and they deserve it.


Matt Brown [6:44 PM]:

Did Vandy crack 100 yards yet?


Mark H Schipper [6:44 PM]:

Two Minute Glory is really the ultimate Glory. At least that’s what I tell the ladies (Likus ((sp?))laugh)


Jason Kirk [6:44 PM]:

Look at USC’s schedule after this. Four true road games, two of which are Washington State and Boston College. Its two North opponents remaining are Wazzu and Cal. If they can hang on here…


Oh No Romo [6:43 PM]:

Two plays and Iowa is within “Field goal range”


Spencer Hall [6:43 PM]:

And now it’s time to watch Stanford’s offense go quickly. [insert picture of giant mining dump truck rolling down mountainside]


Ian Boyd [6:42 PM]:

@Rodger Sherman Texas fans may discover that’s the missing ingredient to making our offense work this year


Rodger Sherman [6:41 PM]:

I think having a kicker is important for a football team


Ian Boyd [6:41 PM]:

@Spencer Hall There’s definitely a reoccurring trait that everyone they recruit possesses.


Oh No Romo [6:41 PM]:

3 and out for Ball State. Iowa’s going to get the ball back with more than 2 minutes left, no timeouts and a 3 point deficit.


Charlie Gebow [6:40 PM]:

hey good kicking


Rodger Sherman [6:40 PM]:

FIELD GOAL WOOO GAME OVER


Jason Kirk [6:40 PM]:

USC-Stanford really is the game you’d draw up in order to drive Bill C. to madness


Spencer Hall [6:40 PM]:

13:43 in the game and two punts. HURRY UP SPECIAL TEAMS


Bill Connelly [6:40 PM]:

USC wastes a timeout on a freeze play I hate this game


Spencer Hall [6:39 PM]:

Ifo Ekpre-Olumu is yes exactly what you mean when you say “Oh one of those squirmy Oregon dudes who moves like Nightcrawler”


Ian Boyd [6:39 PM]:

I’ll tell you what, #22 the linebacker for Oregon made a fantastic drop on that 3rd down. Made that window tiny


jacob.whittaker [6:38 PM]:

If the Duck defense is bad, then the Oregon/Washington game is going to be amazing.


Ian Boyd [6:37 PM]:

I don’t have a good feel for how good this Duck defense is this year, yet


Pete Volk [6:37 PM]:

This Stanford-USC game is pants-on-head crazy


Spencer Hall [6:36 PM]:

VERIFIED: Autzen is a very loud place.


Reggie Ball Owns Auburn [6:36 PM]:

briefly got real nervous that this would be a petros game


Jason Kirk [6:35 PM]:

Appreciate you, Pac-12, for helping make today a great one. Whether that’s against Rose Bowl champs or FCS teams or what have you, thanks for all you do.


Oh No Romo [6:35 PM]:

Hey, an Iowa touchdown!


Spencer Hall [6:35 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Bowl people like free things what’s not to like about freedom


Jason Kirk [6:35 PM]:


Ian Boyd [6:34 PM]:

Somehow I had no idea Oregon’s stadium was that beautiful or surrounded by such great scenery


Peter Berkes [6:34 PM]:

EWU makes it a one score game with 3:14 left. Vernon Adams has 7 touchdown passes.


jacob.whittaker [6:34 PM]:

BAH GAWD, COLORADO WINS! COLORADO WINS! COLORADO WINS!


Jason Kirk [6:33 PM]:

Bowl reps somehow still #gettinit


schwizzy [6:33 PM]:

Are we gonna talk about “Buck” being the nickname for Javroius or did I miss that segment?


Spencer Hall [6:32 PM]:

Also it’s 91 degrees in Eugene, which is basically like 293,000 degrees in translation for them


Ryan Nanni [6:32 PM]:

@Pete Volk #DreamJob


Pete Volk [6:31 PM]:

Maryland just took the lead against South Florida by blocking a punt and returning it for a score


jacob.whittaker [6:31 PM]:

Matt Brown, Afroman knows why…


Spencer Hall [6:31 PM]:

And now there’s a duck on a motorcycle and he’s going way faster than it looks on TV


Spencer Hall [6:30 PM]:

Oregon rolls out to “Black Skinhead.”


Peter Berkes [6:30 PM]:

EWU player misses catch, UW player tips it up, EWU player catches it. Sports


Bill Connelly [6:30 PM]:

Man, Colorado, close this out.


Jason Kirk [6:29 PM]:


Spencer Hall [6:29 PM]:

@Matt Brown Location, location, location


Matt Brown [6:29 PM]:

wait wait wait did we get a reason for why Colorado is playing AT Umass?


SkippyGeo [6:27 PM]:

It’s flooding right now at Baylor vs NSU


Jason Kirk [6:27 PM]:

You probably couldn’t write a fictional version of a sport any weirder than college football.


jacob.whittaker [6:26 PM]:

Colorado trying desperately to remain perfect.

Oregon gets the gold medal for anthem-singing. They’re even loud when they do that.

chuckycrater [6:21 PM]:

If Kiffin was still at USC I would totally believe that story.


Oh No Romo [6:20 PM]:

What?


horndude [6:18 PM]:

Vandy looking like SMU with higher SAT scores.


Spencer Hall [6:18 PM]:

37 first downs, I mean


Spencer Hall [6:18 PM]:

USC had like 37 downs last week.


Ryan Nanni [6:17 PM]:

@Bill C. bill EA changes the damn controls every year what is a man supposed to do


Matt Brown [6:17 PM]:


Charlie Gebow [6:16 PM]:

Did Haden run down to call those last two plays as well?


Bill Connelly [6:16 PM]:

that was some I-have-no-idea-what-will-work play calling on 3rd and 4th down for USC.


jacob.whittaker [6:15 PM]:

I guess the upside of #13 and #14 playing is that no matter who wins, it is an upset(?).


Peter Berkes [6:15 PM]:

Washington up two touchdowns on EWU, but it’s not like they haven’t already blown a two touchdown lead today


Ryan Nanni [6:13 PM]:

Pat Haden told you kids to go to bed, dammit.


Matt Brown [6:12 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I;m at the point where I’m ready to write an article asking for the B1G to add BYU without actually kidding


futurecloser34 [6:12 PM]:

@Pete Volk “Just what in the hell am I paying you guys for anyway?”


Oh No Romo [6:11 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Purdue and…I’m not really sure who else.

At what point does Stanford USC become labeled “unwatchable”?


Peter Berkes [6:10 PM]:

Chris Petersen still looks intensely weird not wearing Boise stuff


Jason Kirk [6:09 PM]:

@jacob.whittaker Sounds pretty good


jacob.whittaker [6:08 PM]:

ESPN has informed me that UPSET ALERT: #13 STANFORD 10, #14 USC 10. The specific details are left to our imaginations.


Jason Kirk [6:08 PM]:


Matt Brown [6:07 PM]:

@Clay Wendler I AM NOT A CROOK


Clay Wendler [6:06 PM]:


Matt Brown [6:06 PM]:

Oregon State struggled with EWU last year and still had an okay season, right?


futurecloser34 [6:05 PM]:

@Clay Wendler ty montgomery is a national treasure. how dare he


Peter Berkes [6:05 PM]:

Washington just recovered an EWU fumble, maybe grabbing this game by the horns finally?


chuckycrater [6:05 PM]:

Maryland up to five turnovers against USF. Somehow only down 3 points.


jacob.whittaker [6:04 PM]:

The entire portion of America west of the Mississippi is pretty much a raging inferno at this point in time. I love you, college football.


Clay Wendler [6:04 PM]:


Matt Brown [6:03 PM]:

That was some really impressive footwork there by Kessler to stay alive in the pocket


Mark H Schipper [6:03 PM]:

Stanford fumbles back to USC, helping the Trojans stay together.


jacob.whittaker [6:03 PM]:

Washington has the lead again, 52-45. Defense is for suckers.


Charlie Gebow [6:02 PM]:

TWIST


Mark H Schipper [6:01 PM]:

USC’s Hayes Pollard tossed on a classic targeting flag. Trojans coming apart


Matt Brown [6:00 PM]:

@matthew_k Perhaps a beverage?


Mark H Schipper [6:00 PM]:

USC is going to put Stanford into the Red Zone on penalties & give them the opportunity to miss another field goal


Matthew Kenerly [5:59 PM]:

Utah’s now leading 52-14 against Fresno, and I don’t have any appropriate food for my feelings. Suggestions?


chuckycrater [5:57 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni He’s going to sneak across the street to One Buc Place and reset all the thermostats.


Ryan Nanni [5:56 PM]:

@chuckycrater maybe he left a bag of snack tacks in his office.


jacob.whittaker [5:55 PM]:

The over/under on EWU vs. Washington was 62.5. Very real chance that both teams will individually beat that mark.


chuckycrater [5:55 PM]:

Apparently Greg Schiano is at the USF game and I am now filled with rage.


Pete Volk [5:55 PM]:

@Oh No Romo leave that out of here we don’t want to hear until maryland is winning again


Jason Kirk [5:55 PM]:

Stanford’s beaten the feathers off USC, and yet USC a few yards from claiming the lead.


Oh No Romo [5:54 PM]:

jacob.whittaker [5:52 PM]:

UPSET ALERT: Colorado is leading a football game somehow. And Eastern Washington has a 45-44 lead over Washington.


chuckycrater [5:52 PM]:

@mark.schipper.18 They can hire him to talk Iowa fans off the ledge or grain elevator or whatever they’re trying to jump off tonight.


Mark H Schipper [5:51 PM]:

Joey Galloway’s relentless optimism vis a vis Iowa is really touching


Oh No Romo [5:50 PM]:

And that one is no good as well! The third miss of the game for Iowa.


Oh No Romo [5:50 PM]:

And Iowa gets ready for another field goal attempt.


Pete Volk [5:50 PM]:

Pretty jarring statistic from Herbie — sixth time Stanford’s been within USC’s 25, fourth time without points


Peter Berkes [5:50 PM]:

Stanford’s red zone efficiency is [computer overheats, bleeds out]


chuckycrater [5:49 PM]:

This game is ending 10-7. Hope you gamblers got the Cardinal -2.5.


Mark H Schipper [5:49 PM]:

Calling David Shaw a little conservative is the direct equivalent of calling Napoleon a touch warlike.


Pete Volk [5:49 PM]:

Once again — Stanford drives down the field, gets nothing out of it. USC still in this somehow


The Big Cup [5:48 PM]:

@Pete Volk Hey man, let him dream


Spencer Hall [5:48 PM]:

Pete Volk [5:48 PM]:

@The Big Cup Bus woulda score by now


chuckycrater [5:48 PM]:

If Stanford doesn’t go for this with like 45 TEs I’m turning this game off.


The Big Cup [5:47 PM]:

@Pete Volk ITS CLEARLY A BUS


Mark H Schipper [5:47 PM]:

Even Kevin Hogan is a secret tight end.


Pete Volk [5:47 PM]:

Peter Berkes [5:45 PM]:

Reports of Penn State message board creatures calling for Christian Hackenberg to be benched. Funny ole game, this.


Pete Volk [5:45 PM]:

@bmc521188 Certainly looks that way, but Hogan’s averaging nearly 10 yards per throw.


bmc521188 [5:44 PM]:

USC Stanford has had 0 QB play so far. Stanford seems like they can overcome it but it’s absolutely killing USC


Clay Wendler [5:44 PM]:


Pete Volk [5:43 PM]:

Stanford’s defense has shown up, but the offense is moving the dang ball.


Peter Berkes [5:43 PM]:

@chuckycrater priscooooooooo


Mark H Schipper [5:41 PM]:

@Peter Berkes You are correct. That was a very ugly game at Soldier Field in which Damon Bullock scored a late touchdown to house it.


chuckycrater [5:41 PM]:

looolllll


Peter Berkes [5:41 PM]:

Actually, I take it back. Every job in the Big Ten is impossible.


Spencer Hall [5:40 PM]:

I don’t know if this is a mix or a DJ but they just mixed Fatman Scoop into Bon Jovi and I approve


Peter Berkes [5:39 PM]:

Iowa was the only team to beat NIU in the regular season during their Orange Bowl year IIRC. This sport makes no sense.


Pete Volk [5:39 PM]:

After that opening 68-yard touchdown drive, USC next four drives have gone for two, 33, four and two yards, respectively.


Spencer Hall [5:39 PM]:

Hello from Autzen Stadium


Oh No Romo [5:38 PM]:

Another FG for Ball State. They’re up 13-3. They probably should have done more with that drive though.


Peter Berkes [5:36 PM]:


Jason Kirk [5:36 PM]:


Oh No Romo [5:35 PM]:

Iowa turnover and Ball State has the ball again in Hawkeye territory


thermoroach [5:34 PM]:

I’m tripping balls, this Stanford-USC game is fun right now. But then again, so is everything


Jason Kirk [5:34 PM]:

#collegekickers! 251 yards to 93, but 10-7.


chuckycrater [5:34 PM]:

Stanford deserved that for running on 3rd and long.


Jason Kirk [5:34 PM]:

@Peter Berkes spelling is hard


Jason Kirk [5:34 PM]:

@Peter Berkes yet to be determiend


Jason Kirk [5:33 PM]:

But if USC wins, it’ll be in large part due to Stanford’s ghastly red zone work.


Peter Berkes [5:33 PM]:

@Jason Kirk are they unable or unwilling?


ROFLCOPTER16 [5:33 PM]:

fresno state is going to go winless and fire deruyter and be a glorious dumpsterfire


Jason Kirk [5:32 PM]:

If Stanford scores here, how can USC recover? The football field is more than 100 yards long, and its offense cannot cover that distance!


Peter Berkes [5:32 PM]:

USC looked so good early, and then, just, nothing


Pete Volk [5:31 PM]:

Stanford bringing it to USC early in the second half. Knocking on the door


Peter Berkes [5:30 PM]:

Ty Montgomery returned that kick on a trot like he was about to rugby pass it back to his teammates


Jason Kirk [5:30 PM]:

USC punter got trucked by maybe the country’s best return man.

Nick Saban and Lane Kiffin still taking excellent photos together

Remember how new Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin and his boss looked during last week’s game against West Virginia, which saw the Tide running wild on offense despite some misfires in the passing game? And how those looks suggested a certain dynamic narrative in line with how we think of each of these gentlemen, whether it was actually happening or not?

There are more photos…

chuckycrater [5:26 PM]:

The only time Kansas has been good in the last 20 years was when Snyder was gone. It’s not just Charlie Weis.


Peter Berkes [5:26 PM]:

@Pete Volk Ron Prince is ready and waiting for another shot


Peter Berkes [5:26 PM]:

Whaaaaayyyylllp, I still don’t get Pac-12 Network


Mark H Schipper [5:26 PM]:

@Pete Volk That will be 20 years at least.


Rodger Sherman [5:25 PM]:

@chuckycrater “not having Charlie Weis” might help.


Pete Volk [5:25 PM]:

@chuckycrater Best case scenario for Kansas and Iowa State may be waiting til Snyder retires


chuckycrater [5:24 PM]:

Kansas is getting close to impossible. No high school pipelines, K-State has the JUCOs on lock, it’s a basketball school. Even Mangino only really had one big year there.


Matthew Kenerly [5:24 PM]:

I’m now watching EWU/Washington, and I can’t decide whether it’s because the Pac-12 Network is showing me mercy

@Clefo By some accounts there’s some issues there with institutional support, but jeez, how hard is it to get people to come to Boulder?


Matt Brown [5:22 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Yeah, that’s shocking…but I agree, with the right coach and some time, I don’t see why they would be structurally prohibited from ever being good


Peter Berkes [5:22 PM]:

@Clefo The job Hawkins did on that program really is impressive


Charlie Gebow [5:20 PM]:

@Peter Berkes It’s amazing how in a decade and one Hawkins later they went from a pretty good program to the worst in two different conferences


Rodger Sherman [5:19 PM]:

pro tip: here is Tulsa’s retriever’s instagram page http://instagram.com/tulsagoldie


Peter Berkes [5:19 PM]:

It’s not an impossible job by any stretch, I’m just kind of amazed at how long Colorado has been really bad.


Mark H Schipper [5:19 PM]:

Purdue has won Rose Bowls, produced a Heisman winner, NFL stars. I would say Indiana is by far the worst B1G job. But, KSU was the worst football program in cfb history before Bill Snyder went from Iowa of all places and built it up.

Peter Berkes [5:17 PM]:

I mean, Purdue is super-heated garbage, but Joe Tiller had sustained success there not all that long ago


Pete Volk [5:17 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Yeah, we were thinking Vandy, Iowa State and Wake Forest are the only ones that come all that close.


Mark H Schipper [5:17 PM]:

@Pete Volk Barry Switzer in his timeless memoir, Bootlegger’s Boy, singled out Iowa State (some would say unfairly) as the one job in the Big XII that would be impossible to enjoy sustained success. Barry also spends most his time in something he calls the Coach’s Cabana, which may not be well ventilated


Peter Berkes [5:17 PM]:

@Pete Volk I think Iowa State might be close. I don’t think any Big Ten job is impossible.


Pete Volk [5:17 PM]:

@Pete Volk (is what we just made up on the fly)


Pete Volk [5:16 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Impossible to achieve sustainable level of 8-9 wins every year


Peter Berkes [5:15 PM]:

@Pete Volk Define impossible. Like, impossible to win the conference?

Northwestern, 0, NIU, 0 at the half. I want to gouge my eyes out


Jason Kirk [5:01 PM]:


Pete Volk [5:00 PM]:

UMass up 21-20 on Colorado!


Jason Kirk [5:00 PM]:

Two straight red zone penalties for Stanford offense after a time out. That’s non-Stanfordy, in my estimation.


Peter Berkes [4:59 PM]:

You think Kirk and Fowler planned these suits?


Oh No Romo [4:59 PM]:

Another missed field goal for Iowa.

@Jason Kirk I was just about to say, they had that first drive and then basically nothing

Stanford has looked a little more meat-grinder-y on this drive.


Jason Kirk [4:57 PM]:

USC has 93 yards just before halftime. So there’s one big answer about that offense!

Why on earth does Stanford insist on running wildcat packages so often?


Ian Boyd [4:13 PM]:

I liked Stanford better then the TEs were running vertical routes thrown by Luck then when they became extra OL


Peter Berkes [4:12 PM]:

Both the corner and the receiver came down with that one.

Meanwhile, in Tampa, Maryland just turned the ball over for the third time in the first quarter. USF returned fumble for a touchdown, game is tied 7-7.

Pete Volk [4:02 PM]:

Touchdown, USC. Trojans looking like the old days on that drive


Peter Berkes [4:01 PM]:

I thought K-State -12.5 was a slam dunk. Sports metaphor.


Jason Kirk [3:35 PM]:

Hey Tennessee fans there’s that game that wasn’t on TV for a while

Tennessee vs. Arkansas State final score: 3 things we learned from the Vols' 34-19 win

It wasn’t a cakewalk for the Vols, but they showed some promise in a 34-19 win over Arkansas State.


Oh No Romo [3:35 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni The only best case scenario is an Ag Engineering degree.


Ian Boyd [3:35 PM]:

Okay on the replay there…Waters is a master running that QB draw. Totally lured the LB into the wrong gap


Ryan Nanni [3:34 PM]:

there is no “best case scenario” for iowa state.


Jason Kirk [3:34 PM]:

@Ian Boyd Pretty much just a constant buzz of empathy.


Rodger Sherman [3:34 PM]:

If they just picked up a first down, they bleed the clock and hit the field goal


Ian Boyd [3:34 PM]:

How many times has everyone felt bad for Paul Rhoads over the last 3 years?


Rodger Sherman [3:33 PM]:

giving up that TD is the best case scenario for iowa state, right?


Jason Kirk [3:33 PM]:

Jake Waters run deep. Into Iowa State’s end zone with a minute to go!


Mark H Schipper [3:33 PM]:

My thing about field goal kickers is that I remember a guy named Scott Norwood & that’s the only name I remember . . . nevermind, Water flows into the end zone


Pete Volk [3:32 PM]:

North Texas 43, SMU 6. That June Jones offense just can’t survive without Garrett Gilbert


ponebrewed [3:32 PM]:

@Ian Boyd field goal, would say that fewer things can go wrong


Ian Boyd [3:31 PM]:

If you’re KSU are you trying to score a TD or try and win by finishing the game with a FG?


Matthew Kenerly [3:29 PM]:

Utah’s already up 10-0, and I feel like I need some Ben and Jerry’s


Rodger Sherman [3:29 PM]:

Proud of UConn for pulling out the upset.


Jason Kirk [3:29 PM]:

DON’T GO CHASING WATERS, IOWA STATE. Actually, you should.


Pete Volk [3:29 PM]:

Jake Waters shredding Iowa State’s defense on this drive. Looks like a last-second Wildcat win is inevitable


Passive Voice [3:28 PM]:

UConn escapes. FCS magic just isn’t there this year.


Ian Boyd [3:27 PM]:

Tyler Lockett should be an All American


Oh No Romo [3:27 PM]:

How did he make that catch?


Ryan Nanni [3:27 PM]:

Tyler Lockett ain’t fair.


Ian Boyd [3:26 PM]:

Btw if people are interested in the POP play it has essentially become the foundation of the Oklahoma offense


Passive Voice [3:26 PM]:

stony brook gettin the ball but it’s on their 5 with 37 seconds left. need a field goal to tie.


Ian Boyd [3:26 PM]:

Waters kicks things off with a 15 yard run on the Draw/POP play


Oh No Romo [3:26 PM]:

Good run by Waters on first down.

Ames remains interesting with a stop by K State on 3rd down


Oh No Romo [3:24 PM]:

@Pete Volk And no timeouts.


Pete Volk [3:23 PM]:

Kansas State stuffs Iowa State on third and short, and it looks like the Wildcats will get a chance with around 3 minutes left, down by two

holy McNeese


Ian Boyd [3:18 PM]:

Jake Waters comes back and just misses a POP throw. He seems ok, thank God


Rodger Sherman [3:18 PM]:

MCNEESE F. BABY AND THE F IS FOR PIVOTAL FORCED FUMBLE


Matthew Kenerly [3:17 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Didn’t he catch the Hail Mary against Northwestern last year? As a Fresno fan, I’m worried about next week already.


Jason Kirk [3:17 PM]:

#collegekickers inbound in Lincoln.


Jason Kirk [3:17 PM]:

@Ian Boyd Yep. And he had a one-hander earlier today.


Ryan Nanni [3:16 PM]:

Purdue’s gonna get this thing turned around and sneak into the FCS tournament. You’ll see.


Jason Kirk [3:16 PM]:

Via @hustlebelt


Ian Boyd [3:16 PM]:

@Clay Wendler Is that the same guy with that absurd catch last week?


Matthew Kenerly [3:16 PM]:

Can’t Jordan Westerkamp ever make any normal catches?


Pete Volk [3:16 PM]:

And that’s final. Central Michigan 38, Purdue 17.


Clay Wendler [3:15 PM]:


Mark H Schipper [3:15 PM]:

That peroxide blonde Nebraska chick with the #69 jersey wanted a pass interference there pretty bad & I wonder if she wasn’t on to something


njny [3:15 PM]:

@Oh No Romo One disaster at a time, Mr. Romo.


Ian Boyd [3:15 PM]:

Wow, didn’t Nebraska have like 10k yards last week?


Oh No Romo [3:14 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I don’t get ESPNU


Pete Volk [3:14 PM]:

Sam Richardson just avoided two defenders on a sack who were literally on him, before stumbling and throwing the ball to the feet of a receiver to avoid a big sack loss


Jason Kirk [3:14 PM]:

McNeese State 90 yards away from knocking off Nebraska. I trust you’re all watching this by now.


Kim McCauley [3:13 PM]:

let’s all lol @ Nebraska


Oh No Romo [3:12 PM]:

Oh my, UAB just took the lead on Mississippi State.


Rodger Sherman [3:12 PM]:

NEBRASKA


Pete Volk [3:12 PM]:

WHOA NEBRASKA ALERT


Ian Boyd [3:11 PM]:

Really curious if Jake Waters is the QB on KSU’s next drive. Was he concussed on that hit?


Mark H Schipper [3:11 PM]:

Vis-a-vis McNeese playing only with guys named McNeese. First, remarkable recruiting. Second, have they made life unnecessarily difficult for themselves going forward?


Peter Berkes [3:09 PM]:

Army is up 47-17 on Buffalo. Baylor is seriously going to reach 100 without trying.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [3:09 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni How prolific must their parents have been to get a whole state to themselves?


Siems [3:09 PM]:

Bama/FAU being called official because of inclement weather. Bama covers spread


Ryan Nanni [3:07 PM]:

The Brothers McNeese came to play, y’all.


Jason Kirk [3:06 PM]:

24-24 in Lincoln.


njny [3:05 PM]:

Surprised Waters didn’t try to extend the ball over the goal line. Wrong time to worry about ball security, young man.


Mark H Schipper [3:04 PM]:

Mr. Waters – the concrete dam starts and ends at the goal line in Ames.


Pete Volk [3:03 PM]:

Kansas State stuffed! Iowa State with another short-yard stand, they keep the lead


Oh No Romo [3:03 PM]:

Wow, Waters got leveled.


Jason Kirk [3:02 PM]:

McNeese State three yards from taking the lead at Nebraska. 5:35, ESPNU.


Pete Volk [3:01 PM]:

Touchdown for Kansas State. They can tie it with a two-point conversion


Mark H Schipper [3:01 PM]:

Are the Football Playing Locketts engineered in this country or elsewhere? Like to think we can still do that with the best of ’em.


Pete Volk [3:01 PM]:

Kansas State drivin’. First and goal from the four


Jason Kirk [3:00 PM]:


Kim McCauley [3:00 PM]:

we’re getting dangerously close to christening this as F It Saturday 2014


Peter Berkes [2:59 PM]:

GOOD HEAVENS. Tennessee dodges a huge bullet. Great onside kick by ASU that bounced off like six guys.


ahowie [2:58 PM]:

The two teams participating in this Akron – Penn St sporting event are – how you say? – not good.


Pete Volk [2:58 PM]:

First play for KSU — pass interference, Iowa State. Cyclones can’t afford mistakes right now


Hambone179 [2:58 PM]:

That’s BS. Iowa State was robbed!


Jason Kirk [2:57 PM]:

McNeese State is cracking the red zone and might be about to take the lead on Nebraska. ESPNU.


Pete Volk [2:57 PM]:

It’s an interception. Ruling on the field stands for Kansas State


Peter Berkes [2:56 PM]:

If Arkansas State can score again in the next few minutes, there could be some late fireworks in Knoxville.


Mark H Schipper [2:55 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni Do you know what an undefeated season at Auburn looks like? . . . Well, I guess we all do, now. But so does he, is the point. Want that for Florida? (Chuck Amato also part of an elite 90s package deal)


Peter Berkes [2:55 PM]:

Arkansas State pulls back a touchdown on a nice run to the pylon, but they’re still down two scores 31-19.


Pete Volk [2:55 PM]:

@Pete Volk INT is under review. KSU defender appeared to strip the ball from Jarvis West


Hambone179 [2:54 PM]:

@Pete Volk Not for long. He was down.


The Big Cup [2:54 PM]:

Bowden’s revenge on Florida coming


Pete Volk [2:53 PM]:

Kansas State with a HUGE takeaway with around 9 minutes left. Still trail by 8


Oh No Romo [2:53 PM]:

@Ryan Nanni Don’t be ridiculous! It’s Dan McCarney’s job to lose.


Ryan Nanni [2:53 PM]:

Guys, I need you to tell me that Terry Bowden won’t get the Florida job.


Oh No Romo [2:51 PM]:

Illinois scores on a pick six!


Oh No Romo [2:49 PM]:

Mississippi State scores on a pick six, which came several plays after a red zone interception.


Peter Berkes [2:48 PM]:

Ah good, two red zone INTs for Christian Hackenberg today. Not his greatest day at the office.


Mark H Schipper [2:47 PM]:

If K-State was running offense when a hypothetical game ended, would they continue to execute plays on air until they scored/got stopped on downs, purely on the principle of it?


Peter Berkes [2:47 PM]:

Beginning to get the feeling this one is slipping away from Arkansas State.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [2:47 PM]:

This K State Iowa State game is just two guys trying to prove they can knock someone out without moving their feet. Awkward slug after awkward slug


Hambone179 [2:46 PM]:

Smells like an upset to me.


Oh No Romo [2:46 PM]:

Everybody run! Paul Rhoads is apparently going crazy on the sideline.


Pete Volk [2:45 PM]:

KSU gets nine yards, attempt to quick-snap the QB sneak on fourth and one and gets stuffed. Paul Rhoads goes nuts on the sidelines again


Pete Volk [2:44 PM]:

Big 3rd and 10 for Kansas State here


chuckycrater [2:44 PM]:

@Peter Berkes keep getting dem checks


Mark H Schipper [2:43 PM]:

Decisive Illinois strike . . . (lead now by one)


Peter Berkes [2:43 PM]:

@chuckycrater June Jones was on a plane to take the Arizona State job not all that long ago. Man.


chuckycrater [2:41 PM]:

End 3Q: North Texas 29, SMU owes June Jones $2 million a year through 2017


Mark H Schipper [2:40 PM]:

Nebraska fans are going to impress the nation with their rational response to this McNeese game – whatever the outcome . . . I repeat – whatever the outcome.


Oh No Romo [2:40 PM]:

9-0 South Alabama leads Kent State


Matthew Kenerly [2:39 PM]:

Georgia State still wants ’Bama, up 10-0 on New Mexico State now


Jason Kirk [2:37 PM]:

On ESPNU, McNeese State is now down by 4 at Nebraska. Fourth quarter.


Oh No Romo [2:36 PM]:

So South Alabama is leading Kent State 2-0.


Mark H Schipper [2:36 PM]:

The thing you’re ecstatic about if you’re Illinois, I think, is that A) You’re playing at home in front of friendlies & B) You’re within striking distance headed to #4. What more could a young football program on the make ask for?


Peter Berkes [2:35 PM]:

DaeSean Hamilton just ran about 80 yards to get back to the line of scrimmage on a horribly executed reverse


Jason Kirk [2:35 PM]:


Pete Volk [2:34 PM]:


Kim McCauley [2:34 PM]:

a man named Wonderful Terry tho


Clay Wendler [2:33 PM]:


Peter Berkes [2:32 PM]:

They really do play turn down for what on every 3rd down at Tennessee. This is not great.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [2:31 PM]:

Illinois luck to only be down 6 to WKY


Jason Kirk [2:31 PM]:

18-minute touchdown drive just getting underway for K-State.


Mark H Schipper [2:31 PM]:

@Jason Kirk What about the one where you don’t even go to school but just take out a loan & send the checks. I thought that had gotten close to openly contradicting the University’s mission.


Peter Berkes [2:30 PM]:

@Jason Kirk it all jumped the tracks when Auburn blew up that poor dog


Mark H Schipper [2:30 PM]:

  • Rhoads (dammit)

Secretary of Balloon Doggies [2:29 PM]:

Illinois needs work on the footballing


Jason Kirk [2:29 PM]:

School ads have gotten weirder by the year, in my opinion.


Mark H Schipper [2:29 PM]:

Paul Rhodes field position WAR clenched jaw face


Jason Kirk [2:28 PM]:

SAM FOOTBALL. Iowa State sacked for loss of 5 after QB Richardson ran a 5k in the pocket


Matthew Kenerly [2:27 PM]:

Fresno State’s uniforms today look suspiciously like UNLV


Mark H Schipper [2:26 PM]:

I nominated the SMU vs North Texas RIVALRY be called the Hayden Fry Invitational with a picnic to follow (or precede, I’m open to well articulated opposition opinions)


Matthew Kenerly [2:26 PM]:

Weird that I’m in Central California and I’ve been blacked out from watching UAB/Miss St online. Any idea how that works?


Peter Berkes [2:25 PM]:

I was going back to make a vine of that stupid pass to Hackenberg and missed the touchdown. 14-3 Penn State.


Pete Volk [2:25 PM]:

Iowa State converts on third and three on the QB run. Cyclones drivin’


Jason Kirk [2:24 PM]:

SMU offense on pace for ~200 yards today. So maybe Baylor’s defense isn’t THAT good.


Oh No Romo [2:23 PM]:

Sorry, 28-3!


Oh No Romo [2:23 PM]:

Army scores again….28-6.


Peter Berkes [2:22 PM]:

Hackenberg to Geno Lewis and Penn State converts just your average 3rd and 25


Pete Volk [2:22 PM]:

Huge third down stop for Iowa State’s defense again. Ames is TURNT


Pete Volk [2:20 PM]:

Meanwhile, Central Michigan has the ball up 28-10 against Purdue


Pete Volk [2:19 PM]:

@Oh No Romo #FUNBELT #FUNBELT


Peter Berkes [2:19 PM]:

Tennessee is up 31-12 on Arkansas State. Not sure the dream will survive.


Rodger Sherman [2:18 PM]:

UConn up 9 on Stony Brook :( :( :(


Pete Volk [2:18 PM]:

Kansas State gets a big third down stop of their own. Bill Snyder does not go full Hulk


Jason Kirk [2:18 PM]:

Looks like K-State stuffed an Iowa State fourth down try. Dudes in purple in the crowd throwing up hand signs re: that.


Oh No Romo [2:18 PM]:

Georgia State is currently up 7-0 on New Mexico State


ROFLCOPTER16 [2:18 PM]:

@Jason Kirk that’s like the hulk fighting juggernaut


Mark H Schipper [2:17 PM]:

@Jason Kirk That, Sir, cannot happen. The most that can happen is an infiniti collision between equally powerful opposing forces that peters out with the sunset.


Jason Kirk [2:16 PM]:

Iowa State’s driving, in case you’d worried the Ames magic had succumbed to the powers of Bill Snyder magic.


Peter Berkes [2:14 PM]:

Penn State – Akron is HIDEOUS


Matthew Kenerly [2:13 PM]:

UConn just ran back a punt for a score, which it looks like they desperately needed.


Jason Kirk [2:13 PM]:

ALERT KANSAS STATE-IOWA STATE BACK ON FS1


Jason Kirk [2:12 PM]:

Via @AndrewGreif, a person in Eugene who is asking for money:


Mark H Schipper [2:09 PM]:

Tim Beckman is probably a Kodiak Ice guy. Just guessing but Copenhagen probably a little fancy for what he’s trying to accomplish up there.


Oh No Romo [2:07 PM]:

@nate.siems Pure Dumb Luck will be the official title for the 2014 Illinois Football Video.


Clay Wendler [2:06 PM]:


Ryan Carp [2:06 PM]:

@Milk Steak that’s happened twice today


Siems [2:06 PM]:

@Milk Steak “Pure dumb luck”…Isn’t that Illinois game strategy?


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [2:05 PM]:

Illinois just fumble chucked the ball on 2nd and goal and got it back by pure dumb luck


Jason Kirk [2:03 PM]:

To Arkansas State-Tennessee here. Wisconsin’s finally got that FCS deal laced up, and good for Wisconsin.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [2:02 PM]:

The leatherneck dream seems to be over


Pete Volk [2:02 PM]:

(this is re: Hackenberg, all, sorry for the confusion)


Pete Volk [2:02 PM]:

@Jason Kirk the phone*


Pete Volk [2:02 PM]:

@Jason Kirk he holds the throw like he’s about to chuck it


Mark H Schipper [2:01 PM]:

What would happen if Terry Bowden’s hair got onto Chuck Amato’s chest?

20131215_kkt_bm2_423.0_standard_249.0

Penn State QB Christian Hackenberg: "I don't know what the f*** we're doing."

It’s generally advisable for a quarterback to have an idea what the (expletive deleted) his team is doing.


Mark H Schipper [1:59 PM]:

This team: W-e-s-t-e-r-n K-t-k-y looks pretty damn good oh wait just saw the opponent is Illinois – nevermind they’re probably a two win team no way to tell


Peter Berkes [1:58 PM]:

pretty excellent helmet to helmet hit on Hackenberg


Peter Berkes [1:56 PM]:

@mark.schipper.18 fitness is important


Jason Kirk [1:54 PM]:


Mark H Schipper [1:54 PM]:

I’m gonna do pushups until K-State & ISU comes back on. Join me or don’t


Peter Berkes [1:53 PM]:

@Jason Kirk He was on the phone with me, concurring


Jason Kirk [1:52 PM]:

Via @BSDTweet, Penn State’s QB appears to not know what the f:):):) Penn State is doing


Oh No Romo [1:49 PM]:

Navy’s about to go up 17-7 on Temple, PAT pending


Jason Kirk [1:49 PM]:

“Can you imagine how bad the Big Ten would look today if it didn’t have Rutgers” took us only two weeks to get to, but we can all enjoy the fact that it’s here.


Jason Kirk [1:47 PM]:

Iowa State crowd pretty much one big Paul Rhoads vine at all times.


Pete Volk [1:46 PM]:

@Rodger Sherman hard to get an accurate count as the number fluctuates with frequency


Rodger Sherman [1:46 PM]:

are there more gronks than stoopses


Oh No Romo [1:46 PM]:

The idea of wanting to play for Iowa State sounds funny to me. And I live in this state.


Rodger Sherman [1:46 PM]:

how many gronks are there


Mark H Schipper [1:45 PM]:

Umm, Gronkowski sighting in Ames. Forgot he was playing football, performed perp takedown in the open field, negates 2 pt conversion. In New England in bed with a stripper, older brother smiles.


Jason Kirk [1:45 PM]:

Iowa State crowd raging like undead horde after every play. This is without question the game to watch.


Siems [1:45 PM]:

Melvin Gordon getting his legs underneath him now


Jason Kirk [1:44 PM]:

  • conversion, not TD

Jason Kirk [1:44 PM]:

Elaborate holding by LIL GRONK wipes out K-State TD. Believe I’ve seen Jim Duggan perform that takedown.


Pete Volk [1:44 PM]:

Kansas State goes for two, succeeds, YOUNG GRONK gets called for holding.


Peter Berkes [1:43 PM]:


Peter Berkes [1:43 PM]:

TERRY BOWDEN


Jason Kirk [1:43 PM]:

@Peter Berkes North Dakota State really is the team Will Muschamp has, in his head.


Peter Berkes [1:43 PM]:

OMG I GOT IT


Pete Volk [1:43 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Seconded


Peter Berkes [1:42 PM]:

@Jason Kirk I would put a $20 down on the table right now to see NDSU play Florida


Jason Kirk [1:42 PM]:

Buffalo, losing by 18 to Army, hosts Baylor soon.


Jason Kirk [1:41 PM]:

Winner of Iowa State-Kansas State gets another shot at North Dakota State, or doesn’t have to play North Dakota State again? I’d prefer the latter, myself.


Pete Volk [1:40 PM]:

Kansas State touchdown. They are apparently not fans of the narrative


Peter Berkes [1:40 PM]:

It’s so good to hear Mack Brown say “progrum”


Pete Volk [1:39 PM]:

@Clay Wendler Also took the lead with an 82-yard punt return TD #HEISMAN #HEISMAN #HEISMAN


Pete Volk [1:39 PM]:

@Jason Kirk Easily would be third best in B1G


Rodger Sherman [1:39 PM]:


Jason Kirk [1:38 PM]:

So Iowa State WR Jarvis West is a better thrower than how many starting QBs?


Clay Wendler [1:36 PM]:


Jason Kirk [1:36 PM]:

SMU down 68-0 through six quarters!


Siems [1:34 PM]:

@Jason Kirk FIRE UP LOUD! ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOTS!


Pete Volk [1:34 PM]:

The guy who threw that WR reverse TD pass? 82-yard punt return touchdown earlier today. Jarvis West is the truth


Peter Berkes [1:34 PM]:

21-3 Army over Buffalo. I want to cry.


Siems [1:33 PM]:

Depresses me how good Mangino’s offense is doing against KState


Jason Kirk [1:33 PM]:

Trying to watch Tennessee, but this TURN DOWN FOR WHAT on every third down nonsense isn’t letting me.


Matt Brown [1:32 PM]:

Paul Rhodes is so proud of that trick play


Jason Kirk [1:32 PM]:

Dabo’s late! (USA Today)


Pete Volk [1:31 PM]:

IOWA STATE TOUCHDOWN


Ryan Carp [1:31 PM]:

holy trickery Batman


Oh No Romo [1:31 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Sure enough…Army scores a TD. They’re about to go up 21-3 on Buffalo


Oh No Romo [1:30 PM]:

Party’s over! UConn just scored and took the lead.


Peter Berkes [1:29 PM]:

@Oh No Romo Sick of this.


Oh No Romo [1:28 PM]:

Army picked off Buffalo just before halftime and might add to their lead.


Pete Volk [1:28 PM]:

Kansas State completes the 42-yard completion on third-and-10….and it’s called back on offensive pass interference.


Peter Berkes [1:28 PM]:

Tennessee just went up 24-12 on ASU, for those that still can’t see the game and/or care.


Pete Volk [1:27 PM]:

Kansas State just got called for their third critical false start of the half.


Jason Kirk [1:25 PM]:

Fatman_1.0.0_standard_249.0

6'6, 340-pound Jordan Phillips scores FAT GUY TOUCHDOWN*

Touchdown Iowa State!


Sailor Ripley [1:17 PM]:

Paul Rhoads hasn’t been that mad since Mack Brown’s refs stole that game from him.


Oh No Romo [1:17 PM]:

Now it’s 17-7 over Illinois.


Matthew Kenerly [1:16 PM]:

Akron’s WRs have a serious case of the drops today, man


Oh No Romo [1:16 PM]:

Western Kentucky scores again!

Last week’s Paul Rhoads freakout!

Jason Kirk [1:13 PM]:

Paul Rhoads freakout of the week:


janlam [1:12 PM]:

thanks


Jason Kirk [1:12 PM]:

@janlam None of us can watch the Vols game in here, but it should be airing on the SEC Network’s alternate channel now.


janlam [1:10 PM]:

why can’t I watch vols game on here


sandy.northrop.7 [1:10 PM]:

so a CMU team who could barely beat Chattanooga is up 14 on Purdue?


Oh No Romo [1:10 PM]:

Navy fumbles and Temple recovers in the end zone for the touchdown.


Jason Kirk [1:09 PM]:

WISCONSIN OFFENSE SCORED??


Pete Volk [1:09 PM]:


Peter Berkes [1:08 PM]:

@Jason Kirk a heartland ouroboros


Jason Kirk [1:08 PM]:

Kansas State trailing Iowa State, which lost to North Dakota State, which beat Kansas State last year.


Peter Berkes [1:08 PM]:

If Christian Hackenberg doesn’t get it together, he may fall from the top spot of Danny Kanell’s QB Stock Report


Oh No Romo [1:08 PM]:

Illinois missed game-tying field goal. Western Kentucky still leads 10-7.


Jason Kirk [1:08 PM]:

Stony Brook still beating UConn.


Rodger Sherman [1:07 PM]:

If 2-0 holds, let’s raise a fund for counseling for that poor Leatherneck kickoff returner


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [1:07 PM]:

@Oh No Romo You know, I’m not sure which would be preferable.


Alfie Crow [1:06 PM]:

They ’spose to be B1G


Clay Wendler [1:06 PM]:


Oh No Romo [1:06 PM]:

@Matt Brown Maryland


Ryan Carp [1:06 PM]:

@Matt Brown Rutgers


Matt Brown [1:05 PM]:

Which Big Ten team is Al Golden coaching next season? Rutgers or Illinois?


Oh No Romo [1:04 PM]:

If anyone was wondering, Clemson leads South Carolina State 10-0 late in the first quarter.


Jason Kirk [1:04 PM]:

Somehow, Wisconsin’s 2-0 seems even more pathetic than if this was 0-0 heading toward the half.


Jason Kirk [1:02 PM]:

This is among the grimmest collection of #noonscores ever beheld.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [1:02 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Already testing trust levels on new dog by moving to new apartment and forcing him to watch B1G football so staying in and making burgers


Peter Berkes [1:00 PM]:

You know, in case you want to see televised murder.


Peter Berkes [1:00 PM]:

Buffalo is getting truck sticked 14-3 by Army. They host Baylor on Friday night.


Kim McCauley [1:00 PM]:

Wisconsin is this year’s Northwestern. They should have pulled the minor upset in a huge game and collapsed. They will now crash and burn and play below their talent level for the remainder of the season.


Rodger Sherman [12:59 PM]:

Wisconsin absolutely STONEWALLED on fourth-and-1 by Western Illinois. This is not the Wisconsin I know.


Pete Volk [12:58 PM]:

Iowa State touchdown on the punt return!


Brian Towle [12:57 PM]:

HAHAHAAHA MCNEESE PICK 6 SOMEONE HOLD ME.


Oh No Romo [12:57 PM]:

Western Kentucky is now leading 10-7 over Illinois.


Pete Volk [12:57 PM]:

Iowa State just got a big defensive stop against Kansas State as well


Pete Volk [12:57 PM]:

Touchdown North Texas. 10-0 lead over SMU.


Jason Kirk [12:56 PM]:

It was me spoiler alert


Oh No Romo [12:56 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Haven’t decided on food yet.

@Peter Berkes Dang, I haven’t eaten thought about breakfast yet… Cookie Crisp, I guess?


Pete Volk [12:54 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Honey braided pretzel twists, because it appears either a pack of raccoons or bloggers raided the Vox DC office last night


Kim McCauley [12:53 PM]:


Jason Kirk [12:53 PM]:

@Peter Berkes Have already hit the Waffle House-Chick-fil-A combo today, so I’m briefly the governor of Georgia.


Pete Volk [12:53 PM]:

46 straight games with a forced turnover continues for Missouri, longest by far in FBS. Forced a turnover off their own turnover, because #innovation


Oh No Romo [12:53 PM]:

So Rutgers is no longer losing to Howard. In fact, they’re leading 17-7.


Peter Berkes [12:53 PM]:

What’s everyone eating today? I’m having ribs!


Pete Volk [12:52 PM]:

Ruling on the field stands, Missouri gets the ball back


Matthew Kenerly [12:51 PM]:

Hackenberg just threw an INT, but that Akron DB had to make a heck of a play to keep a foot inbounds


Kim McCauley [12:51 PM]:

That’s a really awful pick by Mauk and an awesome strip of the defender by the Mizzou WR


Oh No Romo [12:51 PM]:

Iowa State just scored…so it won’t be a shutout


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:50 PM]:

Wisconsin having trouble this week due to a step up in competition


Kim McCauley [12:50 PM]:

Toledo-Mizzou is awesome


Jason Kirk [12:50 PM]:

Sadvols.0.0_standard_249.0

Tennessee fans are maaaaaaaaaaaaad at DirecTV

Tennessee fans can’t find their game. They are not okay with this.


Pete Volk [12:50 PM]:

or so it appears, referees discussing


Charlie Gebow [12:50 PM]:

INTERCEPTFUMBLE


Oh No Romo [12:49 PM]:

Wait, what just happened with Mizzou-Toledo?


Pete Volk [12:49 PM]:

Mauk gets picked off by Toledo. Rockets’ defender brings it into red zone, fumbles, Tigers recover


Matt Brown [12:48 PM]:

college gameday to North Dakota next week if they win, apparently


Peter Berkes [12:47 PM]:

Like, he was just standing there.


Peter Berkes [12:47 PM]:

Laughing out loud at Christian Hackenberg not even moving his feet due to Akron’s lack of pressure


Ryan Carp [12:45 PM]:

@Oh No Romo neither team wants to win the game


Oh No Romo [12:44 PM]:


Matt Brown [12:43 PM]:

I didn’t realize that Wisconsin is actually getting outgained by Western Illinois until just now. Into the 2nd quarter.


Pete Volk [12:42 PM]:

TD Mizzou. They’re up a score on Toledo, 14-7


Oh No Romo [12:40 PM]:

Another UConn turnover. Whitmer dropped back to pass and the ball slipped out of his hand.


Christopher Novak [12:38 PM]:

Jacob Coker alert


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:38 PM]:

Rutgers wheel route


Jason Kirk [12:38 PM]:

FAU has been outscored 76-7 through five quarters (against Nebraska and Alabama).


Oh No Romo [12:37 PM]:

Wisconsin’s lead remains 2-0 over Western Illinois


Alfie Crow [12:37 PM]:

Boy that was a nifty touchdown by Toledo


Rodger Sherman [12:37 PM]:

Bama only up 21-0 on FAU.


Clay Wendler [12:36 PM]:


Kim McCauley [12:35 PM]:

war damn toledo


Oh No Romo [12:35 PM]:

@Milk Steak Well it was more a bumper, so like 10-15 seconds as they were going to commercial break.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:35 PM]:

@Oh No Romo They had 30 seconds to kill?


Jason Kirk [12:34 PM]:

TOLEDO TIES MISSOURI. #noonscores


Peter Berkes [12:34 PM]:

WHEEL ROUTE TD PENN STATE


Oh No Romo [12:34 PM]:

The Rutgers B1G broadcast just showed a segment titled “Great Moments in Rutgers Football.”


Jason Kirk [12:34 PM]:

20140830_jla_aw6_610.jpg.0_standard_249.0

Introducing The B1G-MAC Swap

We’ve teamed up with Jesse Collins from Off Tackle Empire, the B1G blog here at SB Nation, to try and demote a B1G team to the MAC after Week 1.


Jason Kirk [12:34 PM]:

And Purdue wasn’t even the team our MAC and general Big Ten sites agreed would be relegated to the MAC


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:34 PM]:

So what shade of just for men did Bowden buy? I’m going with cornfield


Jason Kirk [12:32 PM]:

Terry Bowden’s hair is a topic today. Your thoughts?


Clay Wendler [12:32 PM]:


Jason Kirk [12:31 PM]:

So Sack A Mauk Mauk Mauk


Christopher Novak [12:31 PM]:

Geez, Mauk. What a terrible throw


Peter Berkes [12:31 PM]:

TERRY BOWDEN’S HAIR


Timinole [12:30 PM]:

Central Michigan is my 3 seed.


Jason Kirk [12:30 PM]:


Pete Volk [12:30 PM]:

Maty Mauk almost got picked the heck off here against Toledo


Jason Kirk [12:30 PM]:


Rodger Sherman [12:30 PM]:

@Peter Berkes zippideedoodaahhhhhhhh


Peter Berkes [12:29 PM]:

I am getting the distinct feeling that Penn State and Akron are just going to gnaw on each other for the next few hours. There will be no fun.


Oh No Romo [12:29 PM]:

Meanwhile in Champagne, Wes Lunt fumbles the snap and turns the ball over to Western Kentucky. Illini lead 7-0.


Jason Kirk [12:29 PM]:

Oklahoma 14, Tulsa 0. Time to watch Toledo!


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:28 PM]:

Central Michigan receiver still waiting to be tackled in absolute confusion


Rodger Sherman [12:28 PM]:

Fun Western Illinois facts: their male teams are the Leathernecks and their female teams are the Westerwinds.


Oh No Romo [12:28 PM]:

Rutgers settles for a field goal, trailing 7-3 to Howard.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:27 PM]:

PURDUE


Oh No Romo [12:27 PM]:

@Rodger Sherman Depends on your definition.


Rodger Sherman [12:27 PM]:

Is Stony Brook beating UConn an upset? Is it really an upset?


Oh No Romo [12:26 PM]:

Your new score: Stony Brook 7, UConn 3


Peter Berkes [12:26 PM]:

@Milk Steak rigorous calisthenics regimen should keep that stuff at bay


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:25 PM]:

So as a new B1G fan I have a question. Is there just one vaccine or do I have to take different ones to avoid catching Purdue or Illinois?


Oh No Romo [12:25 PM]:

UConn fumble, Stony Brook recovers in the end zone for a touchdown.


Jason Kirk [12:25 PM]:

Vuvas_1.0.0_standard_249.0

Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:23 PM]:

@Clay Wendler They haven’t quite caught on to how to do that vaping thing everyone is talking about in Toledo


Christopher Novak [12:22 PM]:

@Clay Wendler Heathens


Peter Berkes [12:22 PM]:

Important news: Chuck Amato is Akron’s defensive coordinator.


Clay Wendler [12:22 PM]:


Oh No Romo [12:22 PM]:

Ohhhh, they’re reviewing


Alfie Crow [12:21 PM]:

@Milk Steak no one gets out of Jack Trice alive. Literally, you could get stabbed.


Matt Brown [12:21 PM]:

Little known fact, btw…Big Ten Football Fever killed like, a third of Spain back in the 19th century


Oh No Romo [12:21 PM]:

Pete Volk [12:21 PM]:


Matt Brown [12:21 PM]:

Big Ten Football Fever everybody!


Kevin Trahan [12:21 PM]:

@Oh No Romo Would’ve been the best NYC fit for the Big Ten


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:20 PM]:

That Toledo fans has seen things, man you don’t even know


Peter Berkes [12:20 PM]:

@Oh No Romo As God intended


Oh No Romo [12:20 PM]:

Stony Brook celebrated a punt pinning UConn at the 1 yard line.


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:20 PM]:

I almost got excited for a real live conference game on fox sports but Iowa State


Jason Kirk [12:20 PM]:

Apologies again for that “’” business.

Rodger Sherman [12:18 PM]:

**MCNEESE STATE UP ON NEBRASKA


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:18 PM]:

Ooof, leatherneck’s corner may not want to take the qb head on


Jason Kirk [12:18 PM]:

UConn losing to Stony Brook, Rutgers losing to Howard, Nebraska losing to McNeese State, Tennessee losing to Arkansas State. These are some exceptional #noonscores.


Rodger Sherman [12:18 PM]:

MCNEESE STATE UP ON NEBRASKA


Peter Berkes [12:17 PM]:

@Matt Brown it’s dangerous you know


Matt Brown [12:17 PM]:

Akron badly misses a field goal against Penn State. CAN’T LET THOSE BIG TEN TEAMS HANG AROUND, ZIPS


Peter Berkes [12:17 PM]:

Oh good lord, Akron’s kicker just shanked a 31 yarder really badly


Pete Volk [12:16 PM]:

North Texas kicks a field goal and takes an early 3-0 lead over SMU


Secretary of Balloon Doggies [12:15 PM]:

Aww horsefeathers I missed a safety


Rodger Sherman [12:15 PM]:

When’s the last time an SEC team played a MAC team on the road? gotta be never, right?


Peter Berkes [12:14 PM]:

Buffalo leads Army 3-0! Get loud, people!


Oh No Romo [12:13 PM]:

Touchdown Howard! They’re leading Rutgers.


Clay Wendler [12:13 PM]:


Oh No Romo [12:12 PM]:

@Jason Kirk If I say yes, am I immediately placed on watch list?


Clay Wendler [12:11 PM]:


Jason Kirk [12:11 PM]:

WHO’S WATCHING STONY BROOK-UCONN


Rodger Sherman [12:10 PM]:

i’m watching mizzou toledo but i’m not happy about it


Matt Brown [12:09 PM]:

Tempe’s helmet here is certainly…a thing!

Large_sb_nation_final

Lee Corso kisses Oregon Duck, turns into a duck

The Duck refused to pick Stanford-USC, and Corso loved him for it.


Peter Berkes [12:09 PM]:

Akron is looking lively on their first drive. It kind of feels like Penn State played last week on a different continent.


Charlie Gebow [12:08 PM]:

Watching Mizzou/Toledo, will immediately change over should the Zips put the scare in another B1G team


Jason Kirk [12:08 PM]:

Three plays in, Oklahoma’s winning in Tulsa. This will be great for Oklahoma’s recruiting efforts in Tulsa.


Jason Kirk [12:08 PM]:

Toledo should straight up launch rockets from the crowd.


Matt Brown [12:08 PM]:

Toledo’s first drive is punishment for the vuvuzelas


Jason Kirk [12:08 PM]:

A vuvuzela’s just a clangatube, in my opinion.


Peter Berkes [12:07 PM]:

Waiting on the first Terry Bowden camera shot so I can see if he still looks like Veruca Salt


cmigbear [12:07 PM]:

And with the first play OU shows just how outclassed Tulsa is here.


Christopher Novak [12:07 PM]:

Mizz/Toledo with OU/Tulsa on backup for me


cmigbear [12:07 PM]:

Watching OU/Tulsa with KSU/ISU and MIZZ/TOL on backup.


Rodger Sherman [12:06 PM]:

are vuvuzelas allowed? they’re not artificial noisemakers but still


Alfie Crow [12:06 PM]:

Sounds like Mizzou is playing in the 2010 World Cup


Christopher Novak [12:05 PM]:

@Pete Volk It’s coming, that’s for sure


Peter Berkes [12:05 PM]:

I just realized that was a minecraft reference from Puddles. My God, what a time we live in.


Pete Volk [12:05 PM]:

Dibs on the first #MAUKtion joke


Charlie Gebow [12:05 PM]:

ona state is at New Mexico damnable premature hitting of post button


Oh No Romo [12:05 PM]:

And the referees ruled it a safety! Wisconsin is up 2-0.


Charlie Gebow [12:04 PM]:

@Rodger Sherman Same reason that Ariz


Jason Kirk [12:04 PM]:

Watching Oklahoma-Tulsa with Mizzou-Toledo on backup here. How bout y’all?


Kim McCauley [12:04 PM]:

The internet tells me that Mizzou is only -4 so I’m watching that


Oh No Romo [12:04 PM]:

Wisconsin’s challenging the touchback call


Alfie Crow [12:04 PM]:

Warning: Mizzou/Toledo is Matt Millen country


Rodger Sherman [12:04 PM]:

mizzou and oklahoma on the road at toledo and tulsa because ?


Clay Wendler [12:03 PM]:


Kevin Trahan [12:03 PM]:

These Vuvuzelas at the Toledo game are insufferable


Oh No Romo [12:02 PM]:

Western Illinois nearly had a safety on the opening kickoff.


Jason Kirk [12:01 PM]:

Minecraft Duck accompanied by human duck. This is the greatest sport on earth


Charlie Gebow [11:59 AM]:

The duck put a cardboard duck on his duck head which is one a human head


Jason Kirk [11:58 AM]:

@Oh No Romo Best Real World-Road Rules season ever


Oh No Romo [11:58 AM]:

And by later in the year, I mean next week.


Oh No Romo [11:58 AM]:

Can they just do a Best Of Gameday Pickers later in the year so we can get Puddles and Stone Cold Steve Austin on the same set?

Saturday college football TV/streaming schedule for Sept. 6, 2014

Let’s have a college football Saturday! It’s not the greatest of its kind, but it’s certainly one of them, and there’s at least enough to keep you busy through each time slot today.
No. 7 Michigan State at No. 3 Oregon at 6:30 ET is the headliner. It should rank as the biggest game of September, it’s the perfect clash of styles, and its one of the games that should eventually tell us the most…


Jason Kirk [11:53 AM]:

Hey, y’all! We’ll be in here soon. Prop your feet up!
