Ohio State vs Penn State.. I'm curious.

Should be a fun year for college football. Alabama is beatable again!

i daren't say this around most of my RL friends, but it only hurts NU in the long run to win a game like last night's vs Wisconsin

soooo many stupid mistakes will just get glossed over and forgotten now

Honestly, I couldn't really care much less about college football at this point. The way they only pay lip-service to academics, plus the way that the UberFootball schools pay small schools huge $$$ to come play them just to lose 70-0 just disgusts me so much I can't care about it. They need to either just admit that it's a business and a minor league for the NFL and pay the athletes some appreciable percentage of what the schools actually make on them, or they need to put in things like minimum graduation rate and GPA levels to qualify for any bowl games or playoffs. (and have an independent agency that makes sure players aren't getting free A's in throwaway classes.)

Anyway, yeah, while the hypocrisy level of NCAA football is so large, I just can't watch it.

sloppy win, yes, but it sure was exciting to watch.

also my friend heather teaches spanish at UNL and taylor martinez is in her class and is apparently the most maddening student ever. doesn't try, doesn't pay attention, doesn't care. she's constantly pissed off and it's kind of entertaining but also understandably frustrating. bleh. she also says his head looks like a potato.

Track down Tom Osborne and rehire him. His teams were scary good.

I love this year, so much unpredictability. I'm hoping someone knocks off Bama.

i have officially written off NU football until martinez is gone.

no way around it, he is just a shit QB. and until martinez is replaced, i consider bo a shit coach.

Go Irish!

Even if we lose at OU and at USC, if we hold serve vs. the rest should be good enough for a BCS bowl.

Dear Drem,

Get a kicker



I cannot fucking believe Notre Dame is going to be where they are. I knew K-State would end up getting beat eventually, but not by Baylor ><

sooooo many fun-to-watch games tonight. that WV/OK game was bananas! really wish they would've pulled out a win but they sure put up a good fight. also crazy to see all the ducks fans bawling in the stands after the game.

Ya im laughin bout the ducks. Im a bandwagon fan when it comes to football. Expecting a perfect season every year is kinda absurd. Watching them lose to a kicker like in the national championship was awesome. Stanford earned it

Nice to see the SEC taking some lumps in bowl season. Gives me false hope that ND actually has a chance.

i really wish nebraska could've kept their first-half momentum in tuesday's game. what a disappointing loss. it was a much better game than i'd expected, though!

Outside of Florida flopping, the SEC did pretty well I'd say.

True in the end.

I was saying the traditional top dogs (LSU, Florida) both lost so it looked good on that front.

Really hope A&M can dethrone Alabama next year.

A&M vs. Oregon in the insanely early 2013 championship prediction lol
