2010 NCAA Football Season

How does this happen when all teams have to play the same amount of games ?
Because, they were supposed to play Ga Tech in 2004, but paid a penalty to them to postpone the game in order to play Louisiana Tech instead.

That's how they lightened the load.

Once again, I thought we were talking about last year.
Back then there was not a mandate on how many games you played.
 
Before the 12 games now that they have to play, they were allowed to play an extra game every so many years. I think every other year.
Wasn't that often. It occurred more like every 5-6 years. Was when Labor Day happened to occur on the 1st or 2nd, which led to an extra Saturday between Labor Day and December.

different subject. Someone criticized Tennessee for trying to bail on a tough game, in order to make their schedule easier, and that Tennessee shouldn't be in the SEC if they do that.

I pointed out that other SEC teams are guilty of the same thing. Hence the point of my post.

It might have. I couldn't remember how often it did happen.

EXACTLY.

Really want to F up the SEC? Blow up the Sun Belt, and watch the L's pile up OOC. :)
 
How so? He was not the starter as far as I know (granted he could still have seen some playing time). I can see them hurting more from this the next year or so though.

Starter or not, LSU needs the reps from all its team mates, I was predicting UNC along with many sports writers to beat LSU anyway so if even a little bit of difference this makes..its going in the wrong direction for LSU.
 
Time to trim the SEC to eleven teams. Tennessee is trying to back out of a game with North Carolina that is scheduled for 2011-2012. Man up Vols and play the game.


North Carolina's home-and-home football series with Tennessee could be called off - Campus Rivalry: College Football & Basketball News, Recruiting, Game Picks, and More - USATODAY.com


As both a UT fan and alumni sadly Iagree with this take, on the ducking part anyway.


Hamilton and Dooley should be taken to the woodshed for this nonsense.


Easiest remedy though would be to forget about the Sun Belt and schedule Big East Patsies.

Double benefit you can crow about beating a BCS School that doesn't field BCS talent levels.:)

Ask Steve Spurrier how that worked out last year, in their bowl game. Oops.
 
Oh, and I forgot, we play you guys soon enough. Will hope to make it down to Knoxville.

I hope you can make it down. One of the best experiences in College Football is Gameday Saturday at Neyland Stadium.


I just hope we(UT) don't try to buy our way out of the Series. I'm really disappointed in Hamilton and Dooley's antics regarding UNC.

All that aside Hancox, if yo do come down PM a little closer to time and I will give you some insight into the best places to eat,drink, sleep.

I spent weekends up there(Thursday Night to Sunday Brunch time for years)

Good times, olden days younger body.:)
 
I don't think VaTech will be a national title threat.

Not only do they have trouble throwing the ball, but they have a laughably bad offense, plus they are one of the biggest teases in college football over the past decade.

Your viewing them from years past?? Have you even seen what they have coming back this year on the Offensive side? Two 1000+ Yard rushers along with the best Dual threat QB's in the ACC. They always reload on Defense but this year it would seem the Offense is right where they need it to be to even shadow the M.Vick Days. When they get past Boise St come Labor day with a win, they will be a contender which I hope at that point we stop hearing all this Boise St non sense along with all the miss conceptions that VT isn't a Title Contender.
 
Id love to see tech take on the SEC champion (who will likely play in the national title game just based on the pre season rankings etc). They will get throttled like they did the last time they played a national title game against a solid team. (Ala Florida State)

A Florida fan praising Florida State?

What is the world coming to?!
 
Florida State during the 90s was one tough ass team. I miss that Fla St team. It made the UF vs FSU games so much more fun. Just like Id bet the OSU fans miss a strong Mich.. Cause the last several years UF vs FSU has been just a routine ass kicking. FSU has been getting better and I expect this years game to really have some fireworks..
