Speaking of bookies, thank goodness for teasers, TCU didn't win but they covered in the teaser.

Wild finish between TCU & Baylor.

[bdoughty]

Great start to Week One!

[SmoothPancakes]

So what the hell happened at the end of the game? I got home from work and turned on the TV to see some Baylor guy with the ball dropping to the ground with 2 seconds to play. I'm guessing it was an interception that ruined a comeback attempt by TCU?

[bdoughty]

Yup they got an int to end the game. TCU had actually come back to take the lead but RG3 took over and played QB and WR to lead them to take back the lead with a FG. Just watch the sports center highlights of the 4th quarter, it was an amazing game, if you like offense.

and so begins the new season of college ball !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So what the hell happened at the end of the game?

I saw it all ... but I'm still not sure I've recovered enough to answer this question.

[morsdraconis]

I'm glad I didn't watch the rest of it. What a pathetic excuse for a defense. Neither team's offense is THAT good.

Yeah, I'm kicking myself for forgetting to set the DVR for this game, like I had planned to.

[JeffHCross]

I'm a huge defensive fan, and I normally would take 13-7 defensive battles over practically anything that happens in the shootout conferences on a regular basis. And yes, there was a lot of bad defense.

It was also 100º.
It was also Week 1.
And there was a ton of cramping, on both sides.

But most of all, it was exciting.

Yeah, I'm kicking myself for forgetting to set the DVR for this game, like I had planned to.

Play a team on rookie in NCAA, throw the ball to wide open receivers all day while playing no defense at all, and you have an exact copy of that game. It was pathetic. All Baylor had to do was do a playaction fake and it was a TD every time. It was the poorest I've seen TCU play in like 3 or 4 years. Good god was it horrible.

[JeffHCross]

Also, I approve of Samantha Steele. She does her homework on the teams, and it shows.

Though sharing a name with what appears to be a ton of porn stars may put an interesting side-note to her career. I'm sure all the guys Googling her won't mind though.

At least in the 4th quarter from the sounds of it.

So that means I should put my money on Boise State when the TCU-Boise game comes around?

Well, it definitely doesn't help that I don't give a diddly fuck about either team. If it's WVU, and we're trouncing the shit out of someone, I'm all over it and watch every second of it. If it's someone I don't care about, it's boring. I wanna see a team struggle to score 21 points because of stifling defense and punishing hits, unless it's WVU. Then, I wanna see them beat the shit out of someone 100-0.

My college football watching experience is really that simple. Every team but WVU needs to play like shit enough to make it where the game is interesting instead of it being the last team with the ball is going to win/throw an INT to lose it. If I wanted that, I'd play the dumb ass CPU on NCAA.
