We about ready to advance?

Looks like a big game is looming this week...

1/6/2009 2:44:09 PM

ok we're advanced

federal you have an invite pending for GT

7 ACC teams are now ranked, big week for in conference games

In a battle for the top of the Atlantic division, #16 Wake Forest (EZ2Score21) heads to Talahasse to play the top ranked Seminoles (stokedgecko). Both teams are undefeated this season. FSU is coming off of a 31-15 win at GT, while Wake is riding a wave of momentum after knocking off the Tigers at home last week 34-0. Wake is scoring over 55 points a game this year. It should be a great one this weekend.

In a Thursday night top 25 matchup, the #23 Maryland Terps (Tiger919) play host to the #4 ranked UNC Tarheels in an intradivisional game. UNC comes in only allowing 89 yards of total rushing this season. Carolina's stingy defense should match up well against the Terps.

FCS Midwest goes to recieve a thumping at GT (th3federali).

#22 Miami (TheWhiteOne26) takes a trip to Durham to face the winless Blue Devils (CPU)

The 2-2 Cavaliers (ncsuftw) will host the #21 Clemson Tigers (PDaaaaaaaveT) who are hoping to bounce back from an embarassing 34-0 loss to Wake Forest last week. UVA's offense should match up well against Clemson who is only a middle of the road pass defense team.


Other ACC news: Wake Forest's MLB Hunter Haynes is in the chase for the Heisman trophy.

HUGE game. Winner is definitely in the driver's seat.

Either way, I'm off to an unexpected start. I finished last season really well, but I had no idea my team would look this good. But for my style of play, I have exactly what I need. I recruited well last year, but I still have a little ways to go.

When are you available HaLo?

1/7/2009 6:29:50 PM

^
I've got a few major recruiting battles with you right now. You need to back off.

1/7/2009 6:39:57 PM

^^sorry I didn't respond earlier, was playing rock band with the wife

maybe around 10:45

1/7/2009 10:05:15 PM

luckily, it seems like the computer did a pretty good job of talking to recruits, so i'm in pretty good shape to grab some top players.

as for the atrocity of a game that was played last night:

FCS Midwest rolled in to Atlanta to face #20 GT, and as predicted, were completely decimated, on every side of the ball. GT's special teams amassed more yards by half-time than the offense had, and had forced two INT's, one of which was returned. By half-time, GT was up 35-0. Things didn't stop here. The 2nd stringers came on to the field for the 3rd quarter, but the personnel was the only thing to change. Although the (2nd string) defense gave up two late scores (and got 3 more INT's), the (2nd string) offense lit up the FCS MW's secondary, passing for a total of 4 TD's in the 2nd half, and running for 2 more. The only stats GT trailed in were First Downs (14 to 7) and TOP (13:26 to 6:37). By the end of things, the 2nd string outscored the 1st string by a TD, leaving us with a 77-14 final.

I believe GT faces BC next week, and then has their first game against human opponents.

is uva still on auto?

1/8/2009 4:34:08 PM

yes, UVA should still be on auto, I'm going to drop him after this week. everyone else is not on auto

1/8/2009 7:11:24 PM

should be free later this evening EZ

1/9/2009 4:08:02 PM

Works for me -- we can do it then.

1/9/2009 4:29:13 PM

sorry guys, i've been away for a while. You're gonna have to put UNC on auto pilot for a bit cuz my LIVE subscription ran out and i don't have the funds to re-apply at the moment. I'll be back before too long though

1/9/2009 7:58:28 PM

ez, i can play tonight

1/11/2009 10:13:53 PM

FSU loses 23-21 to Wake Forest at home. The offense had two long scores, but also two BAD interceptions. Wake held the ball for much of the game and was able to convert key 3rd and longs late in the game to win it.

We are advanced to the next week. Tiger919 has been removed from the league due to not logging in over the past 3 weeks, and not accepting my friend invite for the same time period.

1/12/2009 11:27:40 PM

Sounds good.

1/12/2009 11:29:23 PM

tough loss in atlanta, duke pulls ahead by a td with a minute left, GT marches down to the 5, and throws an INT with 7 seconds left. GT falls to 3-3, and probably out of the top 25.

1/13/2009 1:45:13 AM

No. 10 Wake Forest puts away Boston College pretty early. BC returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown, but Wake took control of the game immediately after that. The win moves the Demon Deacons to 7-0 on the season.

1/13/2009 7:49:24 PM

i guess i didn't realize you had to exit all the way out of the game to save the stuff, so my last game data didn't save. i replayed it and got disconnected once, but finally got the game played. this time i beat duke in double ot, but if you want to somehow penalize me (if that is possible), i'd understand.

1/15/2009 1:25:57 AM

^I imagine you're fine -- sounds reasonable to me.

Where do we stand on this week? I'm all about picking up the pace, but I'm good with whatever.

1/15/2009 8:51:53 AM

I can play whenever today until around 5 or so

1/15/2009 11:22:04 AM

who is Miami. I need to get our game played tonight or tomorrow night.



I will be out of town from Saturday until next Wednesday. I won't be able to advance until next Wednesday night if I don't advance it this Friday

1/15/2009 11:29:00 PM

What time tomorrow would you be able to play? I should be around all late afternoon and some of the night.

1/16/2009 1:00:09 AM

that should work, I'll be home from work around 5:30 or 6pm

1/16/2009 7:01:27 AM

Yeah, that would be nice to get this knocked out before Saturday -- that way we don't wait until Wednesday.

1/16/2009 3:20:39 PM

IIRC, NCSU has a bye week. I can't get on the xbox tonight...when you guys get on later can you check to see if I've done my recruiting for this week?

[Edited on January 16, 2009 at 4:27 PM. Reason : g]

1/16/2009 4:26:45 PM

Im leaving for dinner in about 45 minutes Halo, and I might not be back till tomorrow. If you can play now let me know. If not and you cant play tomorrow and want to advance, you can just autopilot it. You are going to wax me anyway. ha

Apoc, it looks like you play Clemson this week.

1/16/2009 6:32:00 PM

Ok, when does Clemson want to play?

1/16/2009 10:21:34 PM

i can play tommorrow

1/17/2009 1:07:16 PM

Sounds good. We can figure it out tomorrow.

1/17/2009 3:56:54 PM

want to knock this out now?

1/18/2009 4:44:14 PM

Sorry, I wasn't available yesterday. How about tonight?

1/19/2009 1:43:46 PM

I can play now until about 5 or 6

1/19/2009 2:36:58 PM

Where do we stand on this?

1/20/2009 10:02:03 PM

i will be back in town tomorrow to play my game hopefully and get us advanced, it may be Thursday, I won't be back until the evening

1/20/2009 10:03:09 PM

Ill be around tonight and tomorrow Halo but I leave for the All Star Game on Friday so let me know when you want to play.

1/20/2009 10:06:23 PM

hey Gopack are you available to play today?

1/22/2009 9:25:09 PM

yeah ill get on now.

1/22/2009 9:50:07 PM

^ok, i just invited you to it

1/22/2009 10:23:04 PM

Did the result go through? Cause im still on the screen inbetween the game and the dynasty. I think it froze but I dont want to restart if the game wasnt already final.

1/22/2009 11:26:21 PM

#8 FSU defeats #22 Miami 42-21 in a primetime ACC matchup.

Jerrell Jean had over 150 yards receiving and 101 yards rushing to make player of the game. FSU was able to force 4 interceptions including one late in the second quarter which setup a touchdown with 3 seconds left in the quarter. FSU scored twice in the last 40 seconds of the 1st half, once on the previously mentioned TD after the INT. The other was by Taylor on a kickoff return after Miami had tied the game 7-7. The 21-7 halftime lead was too much for Miami against the defense of FSU.

NCSU vs Clemson is the only game left. Please get this game done tomorrow so we can advance for the weekend.

[Edited on January 22, 2009 at 11:29 PM. Reason : .]

1/22/2009 11:29:19 PM

FSU's running back is so fast in the open field. 3 red zone interceptions didnt help the cause.

1/22/2009 11:30:38 PM

DG, I should be around tomorrow evening if you want to get our done.

1/23/2009 12:19:46 AM

i'll be around tommorrow until 4 or so. after that it'll be around 11

1/23/2009 2:26:01 AM

I'm about to get on xbox live for a while. Send me a message on there if you want to play.

1/23/2009 12:55:11 PM

We're advanced.

1st BCS rankings

#1 UNC
#8 Wake Forest
#10 Florida State

1/24/2009 3:16:45 PM

NCSU -- when do you think you'll be available to knock our game out?

1/24/2009 10:52:13 PM

Maybe tomorrow night?

1/25/2009 1:15:36 AM

FSU defeats Kentucky 55-14 in a midseason non-conference matchup.

FSU's defense was stingy and forced 5 interceptions. CB Dionte Allen forced 3 and returned 2 for touchdowns. Jerrell Jean had another 100 yard game rushing the ball and the FSU offense racked up over 300 yards passing in its 2nd straight game.

1/25/2009 3:16:32 AM

Sounds good to me, Apoc. I'll be around today for sure -- just keep me posted on when you want to knock it out.

1/25/2009 2:15:38 PM

How about tonight, NCSU?
