Other Saturday Games Thread

[AWS1022]

Just some thoughts from the other games going on right now:
1. Can we drop the myth that Texas A&M is some kind of juggernaut?
2. As someone posted in another thread, this game won’t hurt Clemson for some reason, especially considering they will likely win the rest of their games.
3. Forget Tua and Haskins, Grier is the best QB in college football. Would love to see the Giants draft him.

Army rolled right over undefeated Buffalo.

Jeez that's a weird sentence to write

I don't recall this "myth" ever being established. Despite delusions of grandeur by their fanbase, they are widely seen as a perennially underachieving, underwhelming program.

1st quarter: UCF 14, pitt 0

RIVAL.

Not sure any program gets fewer wins per dollars spent than Texas A&M.

That would be an interesting list.

I hear it on sports talk radio all the time. Especially after they have Clemson a game.

NW 10 Michigan 0
Beginning of 2nd quarter

[Tom McAndrew]

NW now up 17-0 over Michigan in the 2nd quarter

 

[CJF_Said_The_Great_Joe_Paterno]

....making scUM's Defense (and Offense) look like a complete Joke and is leading 17-0 with 13 minutes remaining in 2nd Qtr. So far, NW has put up 130 yards and scUM 21 yards. LMFAO!

Of course head bozo-boy Wand-stache told us scUM would win easy behind the best most-dominating defense in the nation...blah, blah, blah. LMFAO.

3rd quarter: UCF 38, pitt 7

RIVAL.

 

[Alphabets]

Still early, but NU taking it to them. 17-7.

 

[CJF_Said_The_Great_Joe_Paterno]

"Homefield Advantage irrelevant...."
"scUM has best defense in the nation..."
"NW has no chance..."
"Blah, blah, blah...."

The BTN jabbering-jabronis couldn't have been any more wrong in their analysis of this game, especially head clown-boy shill moron Dave Porn-stache....

U forgot the shizhole refs

 

[Norm Petersin]

Nice pregame treat, get to watch Pitt and Meatchicken both losing

 

[CJF_Said_The_Great_Joe_Paterno]

Fitzgerald shows what an over-rated coach he is at the end of the half....burns 2 TOs for absolutely no reason with a full minute remaining on clock.

 

[PennSt8er]

NW is harbaughing Mich

bwah ha ha.

I know it’s just halftime but...

 

[BobPSU92]

Is northwestern picking michigan apart?

 

[Bertway0]

They're keeping the UM offense off the field for the most part. Fingers crossed, but I'm loving what I've seen so far . A PSU win with OSU and Michigan And Notre Dame losing????? This may be the best September 29th I've ever had.

Michigan looks stronger on both lines of scrimmage. Not sure the Wildcats hold on here.

 

[BobPSU92]

By the way, what does Thorson’s mom look like?

 

[PennSt8er]

App state won 52-7

maybe that’s a good team.

Michigan is the bigger story. Highly unimpressive. Higdon looks good with gaping holes to run through. Otherwise, he's average. Shea doesn't do anything to garner any of the hype he receives. If he had transferred elsewhere, he'd probably done be forgotten. Instead, he does very little and all you hear about is his ability. Defense plays in flashes. Getting gashed by NW is not a good look considering the hype.

Yet Joel Klatt keeps on blabbing like this team is Alabama.

 

[Delco Lion]

Are they on future schedules???

Throw in sPITT getting throttled and it doesn't get much better

 

[royboy]

Michigan looks to have good athletic talent, size and speed. It doesn't translate to good, consistent play. They have 154 total yards at halftime and already 6 penalties for 65 yards.

Two mediocre head coaches on display here IMO.

 

[PennSt8er]

Nope. Just the powerhouses of Idaho, Buffalo, and Nevada.

Buffalo's don't have wings!

Thought that Michigan was "loaded" this year??

Final: UCF 45, pitt 14

ASS. BEATING.

 

[4IUSox2]

Nebraska D is brutal vs Purdue. If Purdue has punted yet, I haven't seen it. Ok, they just did.

Flipping between it and UM-NU. UM drives for FG, 17-10 NU.

IU underwhelming win at Rutgers after dominant 1st half.

I think I speak for most BT fans, beat OSU. Will be giving the remote a workout with your game and Stanford/ND.

 

[BobPSU92]

quinn nor-DEEN. with the field goal for um. 17-10, northwestern.

 

[AWS1022]

One place I would never go to watch a game is Mississippi State. I couldn’t stand the cow bells.

 

[CJF_Said_The_Great_Joe_Paterno]

I would be very surprised if UM doesn’t come back to win, NW is INCREDIBLY unathletic on both sides of the ball (there is a reason they are 1-2, and should be 0-3) - - - but I hope they don’t.

Of course, NW does have the QB who Gunsie told us was the #1 guy in the BigTen.

Doesn't matter, scUM has still looked awful (NW came into this game on a 2-game losing streak!). But to claim this scUM defense that let NW to score on 100% of their first 3 possessions is a joke. I don't care if scUM wins, or not, they look awful versus a really bad NW team that just lost their very best player to a medical condition!

Northwestern just got hosed by the B1G referines. Should have retained possession with a holding penalty.

 

[KnightWhoSaysNit]

Make up holding call against the Michigan offense "from Mars....you've got to be kidding me....unbelievable." -- per the announcers.

B1G refs just terrible. Hope we get a better crew.

Great great jinx job!

Thanks a lot!

It’s a conference game.....we get conference officials.....there is no such thing as a “better” crew.
