The Evil Genius Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Was not impressed with South Carolina last night. I really don't see them as the 9th best team in the NCAA right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 He's more of an SEC cheerleader than a Big Ten cheerleader. I think it may seem that way, because ESPN itself has to talk about the sexy conference, so much more time is spent on it, and analysts have to discuss the teams, in depth. Herbstreit is pretty neutral, in regards to all conferences, even teams like Boise and Hawaii (back when they were winning a lot of games). Of course, everybody knows that he is a celebrated OSU alum, and is in the national spotlight, which would make fans/alumns of other Big Ten schools irritated (I guess), but going back to all of the OSU ****ups in years past, I never saw/heard him rail on the team, or anyone else. He always gave other teams props for getting the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Harris Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 It would have been even funnier if the Towson players didn't chase him and let him run into his own endzone for a safety. lol i think the fact that they did run him down and tackle him makes it even more funny.

The Evil Genius Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 i think the fact that they did run him down and tackle him makes it even more funny. It was a dead ball as soon as the kicking team (the wrong way dude) recovered the muff. So it doesn't matter which way he ran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely. However, in the heat of the moment, your brain usually tells you to tackle the opposing jersey player who has the ball, no matter which direction they are running. :evilg: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Michigan State has some work to do on offense. Their QB needs to mature and their WRs need to get better. Thankfully they have a strong defense and Leveon Bell who was a man among boys. Their D and he allowed them to overcome too many turnovers on offense and still beat Boise St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the beginning of the post-Paterno era. Combine that with the scandal issues and you're going to get a lot of coverage. Not to mention there's not very many marquee games today outside of Bama and Michigan. But that will get plenty of coverage from ABC in the evening.

It's a noteworthy story, but it isn't the only event going on today. ESPN has obsessively covered this for approximately 4 hours, and 95% of GameDay is dedicated to this.

No need to drill the obvious into our heads HEY DID YOU KNOW PENN STATE PLAYS THEIR FIRST NON-PATERNO GAME TODAY I mean I didn't know that Not like the TV didn't mention it for the last 12 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixcuincle Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 http://twitter.com/SIPeteThamel/statuses/241953792684331010 West Virginia has 34 first-half points. Holgorsen looks like he just rolled out of bed. #sameold.sameold Maybe Marshall should get to work memorizing some more signals. Don't know if it was mentioned in here, but Holgorsen said "I got one signal you can memorize" Oh man WVU funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Not alot of whining about Boise State in here today. That's because ACW was banned. Though I never really had any problems with him, he did have a tendency to get a little ridiculous with the Boise love, as well as constantly railing on the"BcS" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixcuincle Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Will every PSU game this year be inundated with "the scandal" and "Paterno"?
