NCAA Football 2011-2012

maybe....
Actually it was. My post about VT were in direct response to you.

My posts about Georgia were just to say my dawgs were outplayed and outclassed by a better team (the quarterbacks excuses of looking ahead are in direct contrast to all the team interviews and talks of the last few months. No one looks ahead of a top 10 team). Unfortunately excuses are becoming common between the hedges (first it was Willie, then Bobo, sorry but it needs to go to the top).

If it weren't for their easy schedule this year, it would be a long season. At best we'll finish 9-3, more likely it'll be 7-5 (Auburn & GT are tossups).

I think GA beats GT this year...GT didn't look to have anything at all this year but its a rival game so who knows. Boise St's very easy schedule this year will be like a cake walk for them once again and I'm just sick of it... sick of hearing their national title bcs buster comments over and over again for another year. After that screwup they did against Nevada the talk died and I believe alot of people were just plain ole happy to see it end. I'll pull for every team they play to beat them just as I did last year.
 
Got a question for you guys.... I've got Dish Network, This saturday's away game with VT vs ECU is showing on FSN according to vt's schedule.... I've searched this on Dish and it says channel 415 I think but I don't get this channel. What do I need to do to watch this game as I don't think they will stream it on ESPN3 either.

its showing here for Arizona but wtf??

I want to watch this game but how?
 
It is a national FSN game, so it should be on whatever channel your RSN is. For me it is FSN SW on 416 SD and 444 HDALT with DISH.

OK good deal..its showing up in the program guide on 444 HD ALT so being on and being on HD is great news! I've set DVR to record it and all is good :)
 
Well, it looks like OU is putting their ducks in a row to move to the Pac 12, and OK State will go wherever OU goes.
Don't blame them. The Big XII is dying a slow death. By being proactive in seeking the Pac 12, OU is trying to ensure they stay in a premeire conference.

The question mark is Texas. Will they stay, or go with them, or go independent.

I could see Oklahoma and company going to the Pac whatever, it makes perfect sense.

I wonder as this all shakes out, if Texas will go with them or petition to join the sec ?
 
It's possible, but I think this is OU and David Boren making a statement to a certain university, get things straightened out or OU will take matters into their own hands. Castiglione didn't know anything about this until Friday morning and neither did OSU. This has always been an option but it is now 50/50 leaving whereas before it was 20% at best. This is Boren stepping in because he wants OU to be perceived on an academic level with Stanford, USC etc.. I still say the best option is staying put, even if we can only add TCU or Houston. We will not get anymore money moving than we already get and it will put a huge strain on all the other sports. The Pac 12 didn't put on much of a show this week either.

The SEC will likely say no. I don't think they want the Longhorns (definitely don't want the Longhorn Network). I have a feeling they only want to expand by 2 at most, with A&M being one, and someone else in a new market (I'm guess they're already thinking Missouri in order to add St. Louis).

Breaking up the Big 12 is not a collegial act - KansasCity.com
As these questions were pondered over the weekend, the same one kept popping up. How did we get into this mess?

History will point to Texas. The school’s over-reaching influence when the Big 12 started formed the genesis of Nebraska’s departure 15 years later.

The Longhorn Network was something other schools envied but could live with — even Texas A&M — until ESPN started yapping about high school content and sought a second game to broadcast when the league had agreed to one. The Aggies had enough. They had an option, and the school has decided moving along is worth the risk of ending one of the college game’s best rivalries.

No other major power, not Florida, Ohio State, Michigan, anybody, acts on its arrogance as destructively as Texas.

I overheard this exchange Saturday.

“How many conferences is Texas going to destroy?”

Answer: “Every one it joins.”
 
Q. Right now only the top 2 teams get in the BCS, is that going to change when these Super Conferences become a reality ?

If not, why would a very good team want to consider going to a SC and potentially be left out as they are the 3rd best team, particularly in the sec.

The SEC has already had their 3rd best team left out a few times in the past (when their record/ranking would say otherwise), Big Ten has been stung likewise, as has the Pac10. Growing by a couple teams won't change that. As it is, the SEC is very happy with their bowl tie-ins/$$$.

I understand the bowl tie ins are set, I'm more thinking of , like you said, the third best team that could be deserving, to be left out of the BCS games.
 
Ok guys, all you that thought Georgia's uni's the other day were bad, they were NOTHING, take a look at the Maryland uni's tonight.
I think they forgot what their school colors were.
