Papa, the earliest I'd be able to play a midnight kickoff is Friday night. So unless your schedule isn't normal this week, when do you want to play? Ohio State plays at noon on Saturday, so practically any time other than 12-4 this weekend would be fine.

Obviously, Prime would prefer us to get it in sooner rather than later but he can wait

[Papa LoneStar]

My little 4pm-5pm central kickoff window is vanished with me having to pick my son up from daycare now....so I guess we'll have to wait until Friday since you're not able to take one for the team and stay up past midnight :-p

psuexv,

I should be good for a game tonight, I jokingingly went and laid down while my wife watched Glee at around 7:30p, well just now woke up.

[psusnoop]

I bet your feeling refreshed for sure now.

[Oneback]

Yeah, I'm good...longest I've slept in quite a long time.

[psuexv]

I'm good for tonight. Let's say 10 EST

[Papa LoneStar]

I'll pay for some quality rest like that Oneback....GREAT move!

[JeffHCross]

so I guess we'll have to wait until Friday since you're not able to take one for the team and stay up past midnight :-p

Yeah, 4 hours of sleep is pretty much a way for me to guarantee I'll suffer at work the next day. So no go this week.

[RcSinger]

good, the first two weeks went quick, I was worried about how long it was taking me to play week 3.
I plan on getting my exterminator on with the YellowJackets tonight but with all the crap I have dealt with the last 2 days, it might be still a day or two before I can get it in.

[Oneback]

That's fine we are looking at Friday night at the earliest before we are able to advance.

[Oneback]

psuexv,

I may be a couple minutes late...my wife wants to watch something and afterwards I need to make a change or two to my depth chart then we can kickoff.

[JeffHCross]

Singer, we normally go pretty quick, but as long as you're communicative, we don't mind waiting. Just let us know when things aren't going you way, and we'll take the foot off the pedal

"No one else wanted to win besides Calhoun", I guess, #5 Sooners turn it over 7 times, Calhoun becomes Heisman frontrunner by carrying OU on his back with 329 yard, 6 TD performance in 42-31 win

I guess no one else for the Sooners wanted to win as badly as Jermie Calhoun did. Six turnovers and one failed fourth down showed how bad the Sooners played. You'd think 7 turnovers would be too much.

Add in Jermie Calhoun and you've got a win.

Calhoun was the One Man Army of this team, again, taking 41 carries for 329 yards and 6 TDs, an insane 8 YPC, and the more insane stat.. he had 212 yards after contact. He broke numerous tackles. He did it all - stiff armed, juked, leaped, and flat out ran away from people, he was like Barry Sanders to the max today. He also caught 3 passes for 33 yards and made a tackle on offense/defense after his team turned the ball over saving a defensive TD (Oklahoma' D got a fumble shortly after to fall there way). Needless to say, he won the game.

"I have never seen a performance like that.. he said, hey guys, you're going to play terrible today and I'm going to play like a legend. That was a performance people are going to say holy hell one day. The only way to describe how he ran today is 'Here comes #23, and there he goes..'", said coach ID.

Landry Jones threw 3 INTs, and the team fumbled the ball away 3 times. TTU took a 14-0 lead before Calhoun outscored Texas Tech 42-17 the rest of the way.

We had two sacks, 1 INT, and a FF and FR on defense.

Quentin Hayes had a 97 yard kickoff return TD called back and Roy Finch had a 66 yard punt return called back due to clipping, those would have been our biggest performances on special teams.

JC#23 all day.

psuexv,

That's fine. I just got on so send the invite when you're ready

[psuexv]

USC/Michigan put on hold. OB complaining about a little lag Just kidding... it was really bad.

[psuexv]

I do have a question Oneback. I notice your playbook is Oneback - is that a coincidence?

[Papa LoneStar]

Must be a glitch....commish gets a custom playbook while we search and search....must be niiiice

[fsuprime]

apparently he did give up on boston college lol
