This is going to be a great season for me. Time Warner has finally started stepping up their game (as well as their monthly bill rates) and started adding more sports channels. Since January, they've added and opened up access to my current subscription package of Fox Sports 2, Fox College Sports Atlantic, Fox College Sports Central and Fox College Sports Pacific all to the digital tier channels, added SEC Network HD, YES HD, NESN HD and finally added Fox Sports Detroit to the HD channels.

They added Pac-12 Network, Pac-12 Los Angeles, Pac-12 Arizona, Pac-12 Washington, Pac-12 Oregon, Pac-12 Mountain and Pac-12 Bay Area all to the digital tier, but it's not authorized currently. Hopefully Time Warner will be nice and unlock those channels when college football starts. Otherwise, I'm just missing Mountain West Network for major FBS football channels/networks. And, if worst comes to worst, I can just watch MW Network games via their MW Network app on my phone.

Good game so far, Montana is keeping it close.

[bdoughty]

You can't ask for a better way to open the college season. Go Griz!

Also there is a really good HS game on later tonight. #1 in the nation De La Salle (CA) @ Trinity (TX)

[SmoothPancakes]

Another good game just ended. Cleveland Benedictine (Division 4 state champion last season) vs. Toledo Central Catholic (Division 3 state champion last season). It was a hell of a game between two storied programs in Ohio.

Well we know what Gigem is getting for Christmas.

Steve Patterson is out as Texas AD less than two years on the job. Strong better pick it up or he's going to follow him.

[baseballplyrmvp]

I think I should apply.

[JBHuskers]

McElwain isn't happy. I think Fred Taylor felt his son getting yelled out after the throat slash gesture.

[Rudy]

Taylor shouldn't have done that but talk about over reacting. McElwain looked like a crazy fool.

[bdoughty]

Agreed, he should have been given a pat on the back and hugs from his teammates. He is special flower and should be given a trophy for expressing himself. All he did was emulate what his father had done so many times. Golly Gee Willikers, that coach is just a big meanie and should be suspended. I did not see the coach yelling at the white players for such celebrations.

Someone find Jessie or Al, we have us a hate crime.

[gschwendt]

To me, at a school like Florida that has had such an atrocious run as of late, you have to instill an environment where that bullshit isn't tolerated. He overreacted but not by a great lot IMO.

TRIGGER WARNING that stuff, please.

I am shaking at the thought of another human (that meanie coach) being so insensitive and now your post. You can't call a person expressing himself bullshit. Freedom of expression is essential to freedom of speech. Which is only legitimate if it meets my specific belief system.



/END SJW humor. I feel icky, need a bath.

[steelerfan]

So a violent hand gesture which harms no one and only simulates violence is grounds for a rage-filled tirade of verbal abuse.

Fake violence is fixed with real violence. Makes sense.

And I never understand how a coach can totally lose control and then rip a player for getting an unsportsmanlike penalty on the field. There were much better ways of handling that.

Barrett replacing Jones at QB for Ohio State...

[SmoothPancakes]

Took long enough.

[JBHuskers]

Took long enough.

Yep.

Jones should've gone into the draft last year. His stock was killed this year.

[Rudy]

A lot of writers blindly throw out #1 pick like they did with Candace and Leinart. Until someone enters the draft and let's the scouts nitpick them as they go through the process I don't believe draft stock gets killed for the most part. Many times it was never as high as people thought.

I didn't think he'd be the #1 or even a first rounder but with 3 games of good game tape and after a bunch of controlled workouts, someone would bite in round 2 or 3. Now that there's more game tape, he's Day 3 at best now that he's been benched.

[souljahbill]

UL is having a really shitty season this year. This is gonna be the 3rd straight blowout loss.

Confused as to why his kids are wearing Auburn clothing. Is the wife an Auburn alum and has the balls in the family? He should be more concerned about that over what Iowa is doing. ;)

Agreed.

Also, concern yourself with losing to an Ole Miss team that is not all that.

[steelerfan]

NCAAF: Ohio State QB J.T. Barrett arrested for operating vehicle while impaired early Saturday morning - reports*-via ESPN.

[SmoothPancakes]

What a fucking dumbass.

[SmoothPancakes]

Arrested for OVI and suspended for at least the Minnesota game next week, all while on a bye week Saturday. That's like getting fired on your day off.

Go Irish!

[souljahbill]

I have a lot of empathy for UCF. A few years ago, they won a BCS game. Now they're 0-10 or 0-11 (I can't recall off the top of my head). Reminds me of how Southern Miss went 12-2 in 2011 and the very next year, 0-12.

Really? Jumped all the way to 3? I love my Sooners and beating OSU this weekend should put us in the top 4 but I did not see us jumping an undefeated Iowa this week. The TCU win was not that impressive and we lost to Texas, that should count against us, right? I would still have ND in the top 4, no matter how badly they played against BC. They destroyed Texas and almost beat #1 Clemson on the road.

One thing that has been proven with the BCS and now the playoffs. Lose early. OU has proven to be effective at this over the years.

[SmoothPancakes]

Yeah, Notre Dame is getting screwed there. Especially considering they were in the top 4 for the last two weeks.
