Other Sports: NCAA Thread v12

[Hollywood Cannon]

@Hollywood Cannon the remnants of my shattered heart just broke into even tinier shards seeing Chip in his Ohio State gear. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

It’s a sad reality.

Tyler Warren is surely a top 3 TE for the draft right?

He’d be a great successor to Goedart but the Birds are reluctant to take on PSU guys until Barkley. Maybe that’ll change.

Stupid NFL changing onside kick rules

AIYAH

I've let go of my apathy toward the other west coast teams like the Ducks and even USC. I wish them all success against the rest of the B1G. Would love to see Oregon finish off OSU, unfortunate that USC fell just short against Penn St. And that Washington is going nowhere this year.

This game is living up to the hype.

 

[WIP CALLER]

lol here comes the predictable osu last second field goal. Lanning is a moron not going for the TD with that much time left.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

It’s times like this that it’s nice to remember that sports can, in fact, be not stupid.

But Will Howard is. Dakkkkk.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Will Howard.

 

[WIP CALLER]

Wow Howard is literally brain dead

SCO DUCKSSSSSS

It's nice when you are a lifelong fan of a team and that team takes out the trash. WOO! Sco Ducks.

Like last year, there's no elite team(s) that's head and shoulders above everyone else like 19-22. The playoffs are still wide open.

Edit: I know people will say Texas, but Ewers is JAG as JAG gets with an elite play caller.

Ole Miss losses again.

Colorado lost? Oh no!

Kiffin might want to forget about getting the FSU job and focus on keeping the one that he has

I still think Loveland is TE1. But Warren should be TE2. He’s older as a fifth year senior but he’s the full package.

Hes the best of the Penn State TE’s under Franklin (you could say the program as well as they didn’t really have great TE’s under Paterno). You’ve had three second rounders (Gesicki, Freiermuth, & Strange) & a fourth rounder (Johnson)

Mickey Shuler was pretty good, probably better in the NFL than at PSU though.

Yeah after I said that I started thinking more. I was kind of going from my time frame of watching them (late 90’s on) where they didn’t really have any TE’s. But obviously Kyle Brady as well.

And Kwalik, although he was before even my time.

Ole Miss went 4-0 last year in one score games against LSU, Arkansas, Auburn, & Texas A&M. This year they’re 0-2 against Kentucky & LSU now.

They were getting a lot of hype heading into this year but I remember some pointing out that as a worrisome trend. As it’s hard to live on the margins year to year.

 

[WIP CALLER]

Colorado lost? Oh no!

Game was a lot closer than I thought it’d be. Kansas st is pretty good. Im far from a Deon apologist but he has turned that program into an actual decent team this year. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if they finish like 8-4 by the end of the season. The only really tough games left for them is at Texas tech and home vs Utah. The rest are all winnable. I think he books it after this year though.

I'm going to sound like an old man screaming at clouds, but Ole Miss looked like a portal team last night. They looked like a bunch of guys that showed up 6 months ago that don't have a firm grasp of Lane's offensive system, and as a result, his play calling was vanilla by his standard. His bread-and-butter last night was designed QB run. That's not a recipe for success.

For the PSU fans, I think yesterday all but guaranteed them a playoff spot. I think they'll lose to OSU, avoid the conference title game, and get in with one loss. That five spot is going to be the loophole best spot to land on the bracket, imo. Yeah, you don't get a bye, but you get the G5 team and the lowest seeded bye team in the first two rounds.
