Kitsap Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 On a sad note we lost Coach James today. A classy guy that inspired a lot of people up here, not just his players. RIP Dawg Father. Link to comment
BFish Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 so i've enjoyed the banter back and forth this year. some of you know that i adopted UCF many years ago as my florida team. less than an hour drive to a game, we upgraded and enjoy the use of the golden knights box with seats just outside. we also have been decent over the years. this year we are not bad. ucf whipped a cocky L-ville team friday. L-ville is good, but they lost and ucf is now ranked. spurrier was lucky to squeak out a win a few weeks ago and penn state now knows who ucf is. i also attend a few Duke home games. while the team is much better they are still a bottom dweller in the acc, but did make it to a bowl game last year. the good news is they're 5-2 and have a few winnable games left and a fairly potent offense. in my town is florida institute of technology who are playing their first D-2 season of football. yes, we are boosters. i love college football and will ride ucf as long as i can. please continue on. for those who understand college football good luck. for those who just shout out a team, good luck as well.

Ron-M Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Although we are Gator fans in our house, I love UCF football. They are a gritty team that is flying under the radar. Going to try to get to a game before the season ends. Despite FSU's good showing over the weekend, still not convinced. Link to comment
BFish Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 hurry up. South florida is sold out and maybe one other. this week should be an easy ticket. if you go anytime let me know. Link to comment
tallman Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Brian, they played well and deserve to be ranked ahead of L'ville, just as Auburn deserves to br ranked ahead of LSU. There are other examples of head to head outcomes and "pollsters" who think their opinion count more than the actual game. Most schools have benefiitted from this and most have been hurt. Shame that we still have people polls w/out accountability. Link to comment

If they can get off the NCAA shit list they'll be even better. Of course I'm looking for a repeat of FSU's performance when the 'Noles play the 'Canes, but I must say that as South Floridian one can't help but be impressed with what Al Golden has been doing down here with both his hands tied behind his back. He is outstanding, and the U's program is on it's way, as is FSU's. The world is restoring its natural balance. Link to comment
beemerman2k Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 On a sad note we lost Coach James today. A classy guy that inspired a lot of people up here, not just his players. RIP Dawg Father. This is a sad note, I really enjoyed watching his Huskies play. They were a real powerhouse under his leadership. I also remember some great Rose Bowl games with Michigan vs his Huskies. Great games! I remember Nepolean Kaufman mocking Desmond Howards Heisman trophy by posing in the end zone after a touchdown on the way to a blowout of Michigan. And I remember "Super 6" Tyrone Wheatley the following year smoke the Huskies with 2 big touchdown runs to secure a Rose Bowl victory for Michigan. I hated coach Don James; he was so damn good!

Kitsap Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 James, A little research finds he also played quarterback for the UM Hurricanes in the 1950s, was an assistant at both FSU and Michigan . James also pulled Nick Saban into coaching as an assistant for him. The man had a lot of connections. Link to comment

tallman Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 So the verdict is in on the U. Predictably the USC/OSU/PSU'ers are whining. Not surprised they ca;'t see the difference between cooperation, self imposed penalties that are significant, efforts to clean house and comply, and the BS obfuscaton and lying at those schools. November 2nd, 8pm baby. Link to comment
Marty Hill Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I think that now the U will be able to fully come back. The good players no longer have to leave for central or north florida. Link to comment
Huzband Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 Any games tomorrow worth talking about? Michigan has a bye, so that's equal to a win for 'em. Apologies to James & Phil. I couldn't help myself. Link to comment

Huzband Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Hey, I watched all 60 minutes, as I always do. BTW, when's the last time, if ever, a team had two bye weeks in the same season? Never heard of it, but Bama had one before the A&M game, & they have one this Sat. Not that I mind, mind you. After all LSwho is coming to town, & Les is probably still steaming about that Ole Miss game. Link to comment

Jake Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Ou-ouu-ouu-ch! Walked into that one. Man, that was good. C'mon Stanford. Shoo the Ducks from the pond. Time to let the Tide roll in and get some. Link to comment

Time to let the Tide roll in and get some. Gee Jake, last time we watched an FSU game together they played, oh who was that team, oh yeah, AlanotsoBama. FSU 21 bamahh 14 Go Noles! No amount of revision will change that and if we get a chance this year, might just be the Ducks we play for the title. Link to comment

beemerman2k Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Tell you what, Michigan sure is moving the ball on Michigan State. Michigan State stacked their defense on only one side of the line of scrimmage. Slyly, Michigan is gaining yards in the opposite direction! Now that's what I call, "thinking outside the box"!

Matts_12GS Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Gators played so poorly overall I think a big 10 team might be able to beat them. My guess is if they lose to FSUCKS, Muschamp will be in the hot seat. Link to comment

Jake Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I don't know about you Timmy, but that is the most balanced Florida State team I've ever seen. Watching two 300#+ offensive linemen in Stork and Matias pave the way at speed way downfield for Freeman was impressive. Two turnovers and 55 yards of penalties was simply shrugged off. C'mon Stanford! Link to comment
tallman Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 First, it was Miami , sorry (sorta/not) Marty. They are a very good team. An excellent team considering the cloud and restrictions they are/were under, great coaching job Yes it is the best team I've seen at FSU since '93 team. Might have better chance to hope for 'Bama to lose, Oregon is formidable. Go Noles! Link to comment

Go Noles! What are the odds we will see a Florida State/Alabama game? I remember the days when I'd see a Florida/Florida State game in the "post season", so that suggests the SEC champ played the ACC champ. Is that game off the table now that we're in the BCS era?

Huzband Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Looks like the criminoles are for real. Young Master Squinton did a good job getting past two bad interceptions. I believe FSU is better than O, so I hope they get their wish. You're not #1 till you beat #1. Bring it on! Link to comment
BFish Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 FSU is destined for 3rd in BCS due to both of their upcoming schedules. Too bad, this is a great team and a game against 'Bama would be classic. Link to comment

Aside from the game on now (Oregon @ Stanford), your game is pretty much it in the way of significant contests. Of course, there's always the unexpected upset; no doubt the rankings will do some big time shifting this weekend. Not that it matters to Michigan :smirk: Link to comment
beemerman2k Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 20-0 in the 3rd quarter. I am shocked at how dominant Stanford is in this game. Link to comment
Jake Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I want to see Alabama v Florida State for all the marbles. Yeah, baby Les Miles & Co may be looking to spoil those plans on Saturday. Seems to me 12 1/2 points is a little bit too much respect. Link to comment
tallman Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Stanford, who lost to Utah, dominates Oregon. FSU needs to play their game, not the opponent. Florida still lurks. 'Bama should destroy LSU as Saban tries to go out in a blaze of SEC glory before going to Texas. Go Noles! Link to comment
BFish Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 stanford helped FSU in the BCS. so now, can any teams below FSU move up???? At Duke this weekend for B-Ball and F-Ball (and some time with the daughter), missing the UCF game. Link to comment

I think Muschump better beat Jimbo and play spoiler if he wants to coach at UF next year. He can ask Ron Zook about losing to UGA and FSU and what kind of pressure Jeremy is under when that happens.
