Oh yeah, I was looking through the list of games on ESPN3 today just seeing the options, and there were a lot of games that I would have been choosing between to watch.Originally Posted by HWill
Yeah, I'm in luck there.I just got this laptop May of last year and made sure this baby was built and able to handle just about anything for the next few years. That and if I remember correctly, this thing has an 18.4" screen on it. So that makes it easier to watch some games on here.
Damn, I had pretty much written that game off after it sat at 30-10 for the entire 3rd quarter. I moved right on to Cincinnati-Fresno State after the end of Oregon State-TCU and never checked back in. At least UNC came back to make it interesting. Makes you wonder what the final score would have ended up being if all those starters and 13 players overall were playing tonight instead of being ineligible or withheld.

Wisconsin up 17-14 at half in Vegas against the Rebels.
Last time they played there (2002), it was one of the weirdest endings (as close to an ending at least) in CFB history.
Georgia looked good. The 3-4 D looked good and it was good to see a coach laying into a player for blowing an assignment. That's been missing for years. Hopefully we're able to come out and handle the Gamecocks defensively. Murray looked pretty good, threw an INT that Durham handed over basically, but he got away with one in the endzone... won't be able to do that against a good team.
It will be good to have a running game next game too. Caleb King is pretty average... he's not shifty and he's slow as dirt. It will be good to have Ealey back in the back field. It would also be nice to have AJ Green if the NCAA would ever rule on him. They certainly ruled on Alabama and South Carolina's players quickly. Seems like they could rule on our best player so we did not have to hold him out for no reason, simply because TMZ has unsubstantiated reports. Very annoying that TMZ is trying to make college football Hollywood and we are being handcuffed because we're missing our best WR. On top of that our #2 WR was suspended, so that was good. Need some speed at the WR position for next week and some better hands, so hopefully AJ is back.
OU looked awful last night. Landry Jones looked like he's never played college football - locking onto receivers, running away from pressure when a simple step up into the pocket would've given him another 3-4 seconds, and some really ugly throws. Defense was decent, but gave up way to many 30+ yard plays. We had defenders in the area to make plays, but they failed to find the ball or would find it late. Tackling was an issue as well. We seemed to be doing too much head hunting rather than wrapping up. I'm sure the team is looking ahead a little bit to Florida State, but if you can't get up for your home opener, that's a HUGE problem.
Despite losing by 26 to Auburn (52-26), Arkansas State's offense looked really good. Our defense struggled a lot but that was mainly due to us concentrating on stopping the Tiger running game and leaving one on one matchups open down field. Cam Newton looks like a hell of a player and will definitely keep Auburn in a lot of games this year.
WVU looks awful. We basically have no QB (pretty sad when a true freshman comes in during mop up duty and plays better than our starter...) and our offensive line leaves a LOT to be desired. Defense did pretty well. Our offensive playcalling was pretty much atrocious. Why we don't take advantage of our speed by running more crossing routes, slants, and things is beyond me. There are ways to take advantage of speed at the WR position besides fuckin' bubble and WR screens people...
ECU has a 10-7 lead at the end of the 1st quarter, but Tulsa is driving in ECU territory.
This one has been a doozy. Currently Tulsa leading 42-38 with 7 minutes left to play.
I do love Tulsa football.

And this one is going down to the wire. Tulsa touchdown with 1:22 left, the Golden Hurricanes now leading 49-45.
Used Tulsa for Road to Glory last year ... and most of my games were 4th quarter shootouts ... so, I'm not surprised.

Oh. My. God. East Carolina wins with no time left on the clock. A chuck up 33 yard hail mary prayer in the endzone on 4th and long with 2 seconds left and an ECU player comes down with it.
East Carolina 51, Tulsa 49

Game ends an hour after it was supposed to
- Hero
Score a touchdown as time expires to win the game (excludes co-op).
Horrible prevent D from Tulsa though ... 6'8" TE basically posts up and blocks everybody out ... no one in front of him means simple catch. Not easy, but simple.

Yeah, that was pretty simple for him. Even watching the reply now on the SMU-Texas Tech broadcast, timed the jump right and there was no one able to contest the ball. The defenders that were in front of him were still a good 5 yards away from being able to do anything, and the rest were all behind him mixed in with the other ECU receivers.
The TTU cheerleaders look like they're wearing pajamas.
Not that I mind.

yeah, I'm not sure whats up with that. it's like 96 degrees over there. lol
must be some special event/thing they have for the game.
They said that it's 147 on the field.
There was so many people dehydrated at the Tech game today. And lines for the water fountains was ridiculous.
The most insane thing about the Tulsa-ECU game ... halfway through the third quarter, the combined score was 40.
It ended at 100.
