Hey, Kentucky got votes in both polls. They really need to beat Florida.....END THIS LOSING STREAK!!!!!

 

[mdonnelly]

YEA! SDSU is in the polls. When I was there (a loooong time ago), they were the Division II champions.

What's it been? 30 straight?

 

[gadgtfreek]

FInally, we have a friggin game. Off to Florida Fri AM for the weekend, can't wait to see a true freshman qb who has been on site since June start this weekend in conference play...

 

[Ramy]

What's it been? 30 straight?

Yep, something like that.

 

[Derwin0]

Yep, something like that.

Personally I hope the finally break it. Then I can rub some Florida relatives noses in it. As long as Georgia doesn't lose to them as well.

 

[gadgtfreek]

Headed out to Tally, hope everyone has good luck this weekend, except Miami and Florida fans of course

 

[Ronnie-]

Damn, FSU is a completely different team without the starting QB.

The couple of weeks off are probably a factor as well

 

[osu1991]

dang it missed the beginnning of the Pokes/TCU game. Had to re-authenticate the roku for watchespn, because of that sec defensive struggle between Arkansas/TAM.

 

[osu1991]

hmmm, not looking good for the Pokes. I was afraid TCU would be a stumbling block. They have the speed to keep up with us on both sides of the ball. Defensive penalties and mistakes are keeping the offense of the field and TCU is taking full advantage of it with very few mistakes of their own.

 

[osu1991]

wow what a final play. Iowa, I was pulling for you.

 

[Ronnie-]

Rtr!

 

[Scherrman]

wow what a final play. Iowa, I was pulling for you.

That was a tough loss to take. The catch to win the game happened right in front of me. Felt sick to my stomach when he caught it. Defender was barely and inch from tipping that ball and winning the game.

How can the coaches keep a 0-2 FSU in the top 25 at this point?

Full strength they are top 10, maybe 5.

Right now? No.

 

[Gobucks]

Georgia looked fantastic. They might challenge Bama.

 

[camo]

Watched the Oregon/ASU game it was very good. Both teams played well... ASU is better than their record and Oregon is too good to be out of top 25 with the 1 loss. They would beat almost 1/2 the top 25 field without any problem. I just don't put much into the polls beyond maybe top 2-3 teams.

 

[Derwin0]

Georgia looked fantastic. They might challenge Bama.

Unfortunately beating Miss St. is not a sign of greatness, or even mediocrity.

 

[stmcld]

What a HORRIBLE loss for the Cats. Stoops is a terrible game coach.

UGA looks really good and I think I way overrated Vandy.
