Oh oh, a 2 point conversion can tie the game

[Tadao]

ONG hahahahahhahaha

But yeah, they didn't really earn OT

[Tadao]

Fucking lucky.

Let's see if USC can finally live up to their ranking today.

O-H-I-O

[Babs]

I was really hoping USC would be back to prominence this year.

[Tadao]

Yeah, I thought Ohio was doing awful until I watched USC put a huge beat down on Colorado. Usually I turn off games like that but I couldn't look away. I kept hoping Colorado would at least make 1 touchdown.

[Babs]

Colorado used to be a team that was consistent in wining and now they have completely fallen off the map in college football.

I really like USC's defense a lot, I honestly believe they could destroy Florida, South Carolina, etc. but definitely put up a fight with Alabama. I think you're going to see USC beat Oregon for a second straight time and possibly play Bama in the NC, that is if Kansas State doesn't slip up, and that's a big if.

Another fun season. The championship should be another defensive struggle (hopefully not as bad as last year) with the winner of the SEC title game going up against the Irish. I wonder if all the Irish players read that Rick Reilly article from right before the season started, because they've definitely exceeded expectations.

I love the position the Heisman voters are in this year, too. Either a freshman (Johnny Football) or a defensive player (Manti Te'o) has to win it, IMO. If neither does, it's an indictment of the voters.

[Tadao]

I love that USC who started as Rank #1 lost to UCLA last week.

[Mike Tobacco]

Definitely didn't see that one or the Arizona loss coming at season's start, that's for sure. Stanford and ND always play them tough.

Lane Kiffin is such a goon, and his mismanagement of yesterday's game was a coaching performance for the ages. It'll be interesting to see how much NFL money Matt Barkley cost himself by coming back. The Trojans always reload, though, and the weight of expectations won't be so heavy next year.

[Tadao]

Well, I think the sanctions against them will be lifted next year, so they can give out scholarships again. I haven't been able to watch a single game this month, I have several taped for later but I just don't have a chance to watch them yet.

[Mike Tobacco]

If you're the angry type, tie down anything you might want to throw at the TV when watching the Notre Dame game. If you're the schadenfreude type, pop some popcorn and enjoy.

USC could've poured some gasoline on the dumpster fire that is the BCS, but Lane had other plans.

[Tadao]

I have USC v UCLA and from there I'm recording UCLA just to see how they do. USC already pissed me off months ago. I heard USC v Notre Dame was a laugh fest.

[Tadao]

UCLA blew it

[Mike Tobacco]

They looked damn impressive, though. Mora just might have that program usurping USC as the dominant SoCal program.

[Tadao]

Well they got lucky when USC lost their scholarship program fro, what was it 5 years?

[Babs]

Georgia needs info on a spike.

Something like that, I'd have to double check. That definitely helps the cause though.

That shit was pathetic. And then Murray decides to throw it short of the endzone on the final play. I thought Saban saving up his timeouts for halftime was the dumbest thing that could happen in that game, but boy was I proven wrong.

National Championship game should be a barn burner. Hey, if Notre Dame vs. Miami was "Catholics vs. Convicts," can Notre Dame vs. Alabama be "Micks vs. Hicks?" I doubt it'll catch on quite as well as the former, but it rhymes so damn well.

I think what happened was he was trying to throw a back shoulder pass to the corner of the endzone but it got tipped which resulted in that shitty catch in which that kid slipped and stayed in bounds. None the less, spike the ball so you can have 13 seconds with at leat 3 downs to try for the endzone on the bama 6 yardline.

As for th NC, I really hope notre dame can do something against bama.

[Mike Tobacco]

You're right about the ball being tipped, but neither receiver in the vicinity of the pass was in the endzone. But yeah, no one is mentioning that if the clock is stopped.
