How happy can you get? OSU
Dec 02, 2007 | 4:34AM | report this
Don't worry, be happy. Bobby McFerrin

Before I start with this, I have to check again. Can OSU have it that easy?

Ok I'm sure of it now. Missouri lost. The "#1 team" in the country lost. They lost to #9 Oklahoma. http://kjzz.org/news/arizona/archives/200701/buckeye/72735353_450.jpg
The most overrated team in the country beat Missouri. The score was Oklahoma 38, Missouri 17. Blowout. Before the game, when asked how he feels about getting another win Missouri's defensive tackle Lorenzo Williams said "It's not that hard really. It's what we've been doing all year,As captains, we don't have a problem with it. It's the younger guys who are saying, 'We're No. 1 ranked, we have a chance to do this, a chance to do that,' those are the guys you've got to get to quick. I think we kind of snubbed it ... right after the (Kansas) game. As much as we put into the KU game, we've got to put more into OU." Well they failed to put more into OU. When you score 36 against Kansas and 17 against OU, that isn't really putting more in. Last time I checked, when you score 19 fewer points than only a week before, I think that is just giving up. It's one thing when you lose to Oklahoma once. But as a number one ranked team, You can't lose twice. When you lose to a team twice in a season, forget about BCS, you have to cross your fingers to get in a bowl period. http://www.bearplugs.com/prodimg/ahc-10101.gifNow I'm not saying Missouri doesn't have a good offense. When your ranked 10 in points per game, out of over 200 College Football Division 1 schools that's pretty good. And when your fifth in total yards per game, that ain't bad either. There D stunk. I am going to bring out the stats. 96th in points per game, 134th in yards given up per game. 214 in passing yards given up per game.So if Missouri wants another chance at the BCS Title, better get recruiting Defensive Backs. To see the coaches press conference click on this link Mizzou's dreams shattered

Ok so now I'm happy. #1 lost. Ohio State is a close behind #3. So that should put them at number two right. Wait what? West Virgina lost to Pittsburgh? Well what was the score? Pitt 13 WVU 9. I http://alumni.wvu.edu/images/content/larger/formation_of_the_state.jpg found this on the Mountaineers team page.West Virginia has long considered Pittsburgh its biggest rival. This year's edition of the Backyard Brawl, which will be played Dec. 1 in Morgantown, is seemingly a blowout waiting to happen as West Virginia has won six straight games and is a prohibitive favorite. However, never has more been on the line for West Virginia in a game against Pitt.If the Mountaineers win, they will be headed to the BCS championship game with the chance to win the first national title in school history.
If that guy was a West Virgina fan maybe he was the one who jinxed them. You can NEVER say a seemingly a blowout waiting to happen in sports. Unless, your talking about the Steelers.You can say seemingly a blowout waiting to happen all you want so the Steelers lose. ANYWAY, back to college football. West Virgina would have been interesting,but boring. West Virgina is ranked 207th in passing yards/game. They run and play defense which is famous WVU football. If Missouri and WVU won, WVU might have struggled because of the Defense of Missouri only has one part of their D in the top 50 and that is rushing D. Anyway, what does it matter if they won't play? Pittsburgh played so good against WVU I can't even describe it. The Backyard Brawl. How do you hold a #2 team in the country to 9 points? More important, how do you beat a #2 team by scoring 13 points? You out play them. And that is what they did.Click on this link to hear West Virginia head coach Rich Rodriguez talk about his team's loss to Pittsburgh. WVU managed only 183 yards of total offense in the defeat.
Mountaineer Nightmare


Who does Ohio State play in the BCS then? I am thinking LSU. Gambitxxx's team. LSU is a good team.

Does Ohio State deserve to be #1?
Oct 28, 2007 | 3:19PM | report this

Coming into this season all you heard about was "can USC go undefeated?" Well, since their loss to Stanford, they have gone downhill. Way downhill. After USC lost their hope of going undefeated, then it was all about LSU, and how great their defense is. Now, since their recent loss to Kentucky, the number one team has been Ohio StateThe image “http://www.djerb.net/media/buckgif.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.. Many people think that Ohio State doesn't deserve to be #1. All they have had to play were a couple of small schools and some "weak" teams from the Big Ten. Well, I'm here to tell yo today that Ohio State does deserve to be at the top of the polls.

Is Ohio State here by default?

The Buckeyes were not in the top five to start the season. So what? This team is having a great year so far. They have arguably the best Defense in the league. They are first in points allowed per game and yards given up per game. Sixth in rushing Defense and fifth in passing defense. They are averaging more than 34 points per game and on average are out scoring their opponents by about 25 points per game. Now, I'm not as stupid to say that if USC and LSU were still undefeated Ohio State would be at the top of the BCS polls, but what are you going to do about those other teams losing. All Ohio State and its players can do is win the games that they are scheduled to play.

Will they close out another undefeated season?

Yes. They do still have Wisconsin and Michigan to play but this teams defense is to good. OSU is going to the BCS Championship and will play "surprise!" Oregon. I have watched this team all year and like the team they have.

 

Sorry I have to cut it short I must go.

Keith's ones, twos, three's, to's, and too's
Oct 07, 2007 | 9:31AM | report this

A good day for sports yesterday, so lets get started!

ONES: Stanford baby. Great game by the Cardinals. If you haven't heard, The Stanford Cardinals upset #2 USC. The final was 24-23. USC turned the ball over 5 times, and gave up 17 fourth quarter points. Stanford got a lead on a fourth and goal ten-yard touchdown pass to Mark Bradford. It happened after John David Booty interception. The upset gives LSU a big lead in the polls. NEXT GAME: vs Arizona State.

TWOS: The Rockies swept the Phillies after a 2-1 battle at Coors Field. Colorado had 9 hits of the Philadelphia pitching staff, but only scored two runs? Still if your the Rockies,congratulations on winning your first ever playoff series. This team better be ready, or Arizona could bite them, and poison them fast. Yorvit Torrealba beware, these Diamondbacks steal a lot.

THREES: Cubs who? What a bad series played by the Cubs. Yes Yes. The Diamondbacks are for real. But come on! The Cubs handed Arizona the series on a golden platter. They didn't score as many runs in the entire series as the Arizona Diamondbacks scored last night. Its either the Diamondbacks are the best in the National League, or the Cubbies just stink so bad they made this pitching staff look like Hall of Famers. (A place where only Brandon Webb may be at the end of his career.) Lou Piniella, get your team to play together, and get them to stop with those ugly shallow fly ball swings.

TO'S:LSU may have won, but they made some risky calls along the way. Inside their twenty, they went for the first on fourth down three times. One of those times it was to win the game. They were down 3 points, and instead of kicking a field goal they went for it. Yes, they got it, but what would have happened if they lost because of that decision. How smart would they have looked then? Thats why they get the stupid award. A risky call that they got lucky on. Boo LSU!

http://www.bearplugs.com/prodimg/ahc-10061.gifTOO'S: Wisconsin? Are you there? Anybody home? No? Illinois beat Wisconsin in Champagne yesterday by a total of 31-26. Illinois ran all over the Badgers for over 280 yards. This is Illinois biggest upset since 1991, when they beat #5 USC. They deserved this win because they outplayed the Badgers. Illinois 5-1? wow great job coach Ron Zook. National Championship? Yes? No?
