Championship Saturday OPENBLOGTHREADHAPPYFUNTIME

"Wait, there's a BCS bid on the line in this game?!  Shit... initiate Operation: EPIC CHOKEJOB in 3... 2.."

Obviously Iowa isn't playing today, but some of the games today (most notably Texas/Nebraska) do matter in terms of what bowl we end up in, so the games aren't irrelevant or anything.  Plus, it's the last real football Saturday of the year (sob) as well as the second-to-last chance to bask in the greatness of The Tebow (not sob).  So place all your random musings, hate-filled rants, and kind-hearted mockery of Messrs. Zook, Wannstedt, and Pelini (to name but three easily-mocked coaches) here.  You know the rules.

FYI: This may also serve as your open thread to discus the Iowa-Prairie View A&M hoops game as well; it's not on TV and I'll be damned if I'm paying $2.99 to watch it on BTN's streaming video.  If anyone else has that urge, I encourage you to instead Paypal $2.99 to me (my email's at the bottom of the page) -- I guarantee I will find something better to spend it on.

Thank you Ross. I didn’t want to have to sit on BSD all day to follow these games.

Thoughts

So, what do we all think happens if the Wannstache pulls out a close victory over Cincy? I doubt they’d get an At Large birth, but it is a bit concerning. I’m hoping for a blowout win by Pitt, or Cincy to somehow pull this out.

It's a nightmare either way

If Pike keeps throwing momentum swinging picks, I’d just line up Gilyard 10 yards behind center and snap it to him.

Well done on making me giggle

about an animal that’s endangered because it gets hit by propellers. My thought process was that badgers and wolverines can actually be ferocious, where as martins can only wish to be as ferocious as their larger relatives. Very appropriate for Minnesota.

I predict

much hand-wringing in the media about how they would deserve it, but no BCS bowl would want them. Their fan/TV support is so awful they might as well be covered in smallpox.

There are a number of scenarios that could be funky for Iowa today

this Pitt game…and Pitt is the type of team that just might cumble in the second half…could affect us. Although, i cannot really see them in a BCS game if they lose (Cinncy that is). But a day of Pitt, Clemson (because of their affect on the O-Bowl avoiding a TCU rematch), and Nebraska winning is the doomsday scenario.

By the way

the economy is finally trickling down to college applications. Because families plan that so far in advance it was a delayed reaction. The expensive private schools are in full panic mode—save the Ivys and others with the massive endowments. This of course has nothing to do with the Pitt game..at least directly.

although

Tebow is slow by NFL standards, whereas Young is a speedster. I really think Tebow would need to be faster to do the Young thing. He might be a better passer out of college but not good enough to overcome his lack of a run threat.

JoePa looks at them as well: it’s good, good training, both academic and football-wise.

McCoy figured he could advance after two years (good prescience, doing well behind westbroke this year) and that the classwork/fieldtime combo would be better with Stache (also right).

by NorseHawk on Dec 5, 2009 2:07 PM CST up reply actions  

Agreed

But let’s be honest, if there hadn’t been all the other shit going down, probably wouldn’t have been kicked off the team.

I’m glad he’s doing well, too. Always had high hopes for him, looked like he had amazing potential and now gets to take advantage of it at a pass-happy school.

Yeah.

Wasn’t he like pot possession or something? In a lot of circumstances, that’s probably just a 4-game suspension or something, but when shit is falling apart like it was, heads gotta roll.

Good for him not continuing to fuck up, though — more than can be said for some other other guys from that dark period.

Also, if he stays, we probably don’t see the emergence of McNutt this year and that was one of my favorite subplots from the season.

Pot or pills

Can’t remember which. True about McNutt though. And to be honest, right now oru problem is almost an abundance of riches (relatively speaking, this is Iowa after all) in the WR department and just don’t throw it around enough to fully take advantage of what we have.

Can't remember who

But somebody compared the USC-Oregon game to the 2001 Nebraska-Colorado game and how the latter game marked the beginning of the end for Nebraska being a perennial national power. Too early to tell if that’s the case for USC, this year just may be an aberration. If nothing else, Miami of this decade shows you that constantly losing a ton of talent to the pros season after season will eventually catch-up to you. Will be interesting to see how USC responds.

But we said the same thing about Miami’s recruiting at the time (and Nebraska’s as well). USC certainly has a lot more advantages than Nebraska, and can therefore take a year or two long hit, but the ’90s show that things can go south for USC real quick, even with all their advantages (doubly true if Carroll gets the NFL itch again).

It’s not the end, just like it wasn’t for Nebraska, but it may well be the beginning of the end.

Nope.

Honestly, I swore up and down I’d NEVER buy from a mall jewelery store. The wife and I (fiance at the time) went to Helzberg just to do some idea shopping. Found the ring she wanted and the customer service was so good, along with the price of course, I went back the next week and signed my life away for it.

I would highly recommend them to anyone. At least the location at the Columbia Mall in Columbia, MO.

Ok, going to HyVee for liquor and cola

Alright Gentlemen

It’s been real today, but I must now focus my attention on buying more beer, and beginning the Big XII Drinking Game. I will be sure to try and video one of the many beer duels that will take place this evening. Hook ’em Horns!

Oh, and Tebow Bless all of you.

They took the bar, the whole fucking bar!

Apologies if it's been covered in the previous 1,000+ comments, but BCS picture.

BCS Title Game: Bama vs ?

Autobids: TCU, Cincy, Ohio State, Oregon, (GT or Clemson), (Texas or Nebraska)

At Large Lock: Florida (Texas if they lose)

At Large contenders: Boise, Iowa, Penn State, (GT if they lose)

Technically Eligible: VT, BYU, (possibly Miami or U$C if GT loses)

Luck is probability taken personally, clutch is probability attributed to individuals.

It's shocking how much can slip your perception

So you guys aren't Nebraska fans tonight?

It’s a shame there isn’t a playoff in college football, because today’s been terrible. No good games at all, right?

Everyone fails. The successful learn from their failures. I just wish we'd quit giving ourselves so many learning opportunities.

Alright, heading to the bar...

…where I’ve got a bunch of buddies meeting me to play the Big12 drinking game (we’re even gonna add some of the original Lushberger rules from 2002 Texas- – for extra drunken-ness), but I’m not sure how the beer duels will go down. We’re going to a blue collar hole in the wall, so they might adopt it as the new way of solving problems (ya never know).

by Eyeheartfreedumb on Dec 5, 2009 6:54 PM CST reply actions  

I'm not ready to give ingram the Heisman

he might not be the best guy on his own team, much less the nation. As much as I hate Mac Brown and Colt I love Jesus II McCoy, he is MUCH more important to that team.

Agreed.

But I also think Gerhardt single handedly won his team at least 4 games.

I like him more than ingram

don’t get me wrong…ingram is great but not Heisman worthy.

Me too.

Anyone else here a Lost fan? I’ve watched it religiously but am excited for it to end.

by Argulor on Dec 5, 2009 7:09 PM CST up reply actions  

Never Watched it until this Spring

then I watched the first three seasons in about a month on Hulu. Then I lost interest in the 4th season

Ditto.

I am happy TV will be less shitty come spring, between LOST, new 24, and THE PACIFIC.

I know it hurts our BCS chances

but there’s a part of me that would love to see Texas fuck this up. It would make a big mess for the BCS, and probably Boise would get frozen out. It’s not that I have anything against Boise, I’m just a much bigger fan of hypocritical hand-wringing and teeth-gnashing.

by Brock Sampson on Dec 5, 2009 7:07 PM CST reply actions  

Much as I'd like to see Iowa go to the Fiesta Bowl

I agree that would be fun, both for chaos purposes and for Boise-fucking purposes.

But Ross, think of Western Iowa

and how INSUFFERABLE the husker fans will be.

Dammit.

And my parents and sister still live there and have to interact with Nebraska fans.

I don’t think I could do that to them.

Rumors of a BSU-TCU Fiesta Bowl? I know they talked about it on TV, but is anyone hearing anything else about it? Where did it come from? Any truth to it??

I love you, Stoops...

and I’ve read you mentioning this on several threads today.

You have to remember, it was the Poinsettia Bowl, not the Holiday Bowl. While neither of these schools has great tradition, it is still a minor bowl, and it was played two days before Christmas (December 23 of 2008 was a Tuesday).

You tell me, if Iowa goes to a bowl game like that, do we bring even 10000 fans? Nope.

I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them.

Dennis Dodd mentioned it this morning, too.

He’s employed by CBSSports.com, though, so they may be using the same intel.

It doesn’t sound that plausible to me, though.

The Cinncy players said Kelly

promised them he is going nowhere and then said, get this, “he’s not like Coach Dantonio”…wow.

He sounds like he would provide plenty of new reasons to hate ND.

Which would be grand with Weis and (likely) Clausen departing this year.

either. I think they may make a run at Meyer now.

Bob Stoops is so happy about the ND rumors

he is under a simdgen of heat after this season. The crazies down there have been writing editorials to the newspapers. But the fear of losing him has shaped everyone up. That, and beating the snot out of Ok. St.
