B1G football setting the bar to a new low for BCS bowls. taking the mantle from 8-4 UConn for worst ever BCS bid

12/1/2012 10:40:47 PM

Not really Wisconsin is actually pretty good. Should give Stanford a good fight.

12/1/2012 10:45:33 PM

I'm sure FSU will make sure we set that record tonight

12/1/2012 10:49:21 PM

Wisconsin's best win before tonight was against a team in a conference that won't exist after this year. which was also the only team with a winning record they beat this year

I disagree with your premise that this Wisconsin team is worse than that uconn team. That uconn team was terrible, this Wisconsin team is not.

^^ 10-2 Utah State. only team with a record better than 6-6. 6-6 Minnesota is only other .500 or above team Wiscy beat

the spread is 8, which is less than it was predicted last week. I hope you aren't utilizing your line predictions in your handicapping.

"Well, time to see what the opening line is between 'bama and ND. I'm guessing it's going to be like 8.5 though it should be closer to 20."

Damn, I was pretty close. I bet it gets driven down to about 6 within the first week and then back up to 7 by the time the game happens.

12/2/2012 12:37:03 AM

vegas sets lines to make money. and they know there are plenty of dumbasses out there who think shit like "bama's gonna win by 20" and will bet as such.

This game is gold for Vegas no matter what. Alabama fans think that they're going to blow the doors off of the Irish, ND fans think their team has a chance and will jump all over any line that favors Alabama.

It's just unfortunate that it won't actually be much of a game.

"Powers was walking up a ramp at the stadium at 8:02 p.m., got too close to the edge and fell about four stories onto the grass outside the facility, police said. Authorities said they notified his family about the accident."

wow

12/2/2012 12:37:06 PM

I call bullshit. How is that even possible? It's not like there aren't rails.

12/2/2012 2:13:34 PM

There are rails and thick concrete that forms the outside of the stadium.

12/2/2012 2:17:35 PM

Yeah, you'd have to be climbing around on shit in order to fall from the ramps to the outside of the stadium. I've walked up those ramps several times. No way in hell it was due to poor design or faulty safety procedures.

12/2/2012 2:24:09 PM

Yeah, I'm pretty much sure that dude was probably fucking about while drunk and then went over when he dropped his coozie or something.

Tickets were being sold for $2 on stubhub. Got a few people in the stands. That's why I went.

12/2/2012 5:17:00 PM

Seeing tweets that Louisiana Tech turned down a bid to play UL-Monroe in the Independence Bowl and won't be going bowling with a 9-3 record. You can thank GT for this scenario.

12/2/2012 7:09:48 PM

why the hell would they turn down a bid?

12/2/2012 7:15:53 PM

^^Had nothing to do with GT. They thought they would get an invite to another bowl (Liberty) but NIU kicked OU out of the BCS and OU took La Tech's spot. Its their own fault they turned down a bid in the first place

I just wanted to blame GT for something. I know it's b/c of their athletic director

12/2/2012 9:06:10 PM

Wow, SEC with 5 of the top 10 in the BCS standings, but only Alabama and Florida in BCS bowls. Can't wait until this stupid system is gone and we replace it with a new stupid system.

12/2/2012 9:10:36 PM

Lol, Duke vs Cincinnati in the Belk bowl

12/2/2012 10:39:12 PM

Heard through sources that the guy at the ACC Championship game that fell got up on the concrete edge of the ramp and was trying to take a picture of the Charlotte skyline and fell off.

going to a BAMA game trumps any ACC game. The real way southern football tailgating started in the south people dress like that, so regardless if you hate it that's the way.

12/2/2012 11:42:27 PM

bowls I want to see:

bama/ND
potato bowl - toledo/utah st
little ceasars - w. kentucky/c michigan
holiday bowl - baylor/ucla
pinstripe - wvu/syracuse
alamo - texas/oregon st
ours
CFA - lsu/clemson
Cap 1 - georgia/nebraska
orange - NIU/FSU lol
fiesta - oregon/kstate. the title game I wanted to see
cotton - TAMU/Oklahoma

the rest can suck it

I'm on TW's side. I don't understand people who want State to go the SEC just so they hang out with this sacks of shit.

Exactly. nothing's going to change. With all the locked in bids, there is little room for more teams. The only real difference is that a few bowls (cotton, chicfila) will magically become big bowls. Georgia might get to play in the sugar bow if it was in effect this year. But only because they're left out of the playoff in favor of bama Florida notre dame and Oregon

Oh and NIU would still make the big bowls

Quote :

"7. T.J. Warren, F, North Carolina State Wolfpack Warren simply hasn't missed in the early going, a fact that Mark Gottfried has recognized by giving his budding star starts in each of the Wolfpack's past two games. The 6-8 freshman has the luxury of playing alongside established stars like C.J. Leslie and Richard Howell, but in any setting making 69 percent of your 2s as a high-volume scorer is remarkable. (That 69 percent shooting includes Warren's rather un-Warren-like 1-of-5 performance Tuesday night against Connecticut at Madison Square Garden.) It's all the more remarkable when you reflect that to this point Warren has been shuttled back and forth between the small and power forward positions, often to compensate for foul trouble incurred by Leslie and/or Howell. Then again, if his 43 percent shooting at the line persists, opponents will be correctly eager to foul Warren late in close games -- or any other time."
