yeah....I see LSU losing at least one game this year just because their O isn't that great....

Their O will improve each week. You have to remember, their starting QB got suspended and Lee is the backup thrust into the starting role.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

If they want to go undefeated their offense will have to improve. I just don't see them going undefeated with the way that offense is playing right now. I don't think anybody in the SEC will go undefeated this year.

Looks like Gopher's coach Jerry Kill is doing much better. He'll either be on the sidelines or up in the booth for today's game.

So now on to the less important things in life from last week.

New Mexico State ..28
Minnesota ............21

How the hell does this happen? At home! Check this out....

~Minnesota were 21 point favorites.
~New Mexico State lost to something called "Ohio Bobcats" 44-24 the previous week.
~New Mexico State had never beaten a Big 10 team.
~New Mexico State had not beaten a BCS team since 1999.


Some of us have lived in shame since 1983 due to this........

Nebraska ....84
Minnesota ...13

Well, onto 44 years of losing football.

Welcome to Golden Goofers football.

LSU doesn't have to go undefeated though. IF they end up with just 1 loss AND win the SEC Championship, they'll be in the BCS Title game. And most of it will have to do with their tough schedule, not solely because they're an SEC team.

It depends where in the season that one loss comes.

Looks like Oklahoma and Texas have been cleared from their board of regents to formally apply to the Pac-12.

Good luck Baylor.

From last Saturday

Miami (OH)....23

At least my Goofs won't go winless this year.

pac 12 said no to both

 

[EVILFACE]

They said no.... right now, but it will happen.

Mizzery is already said to be headed to the SEC to die with TAM.

They more or less said to Texas but they know it's a package deal. Texas and PAC 12 couldn't get a revenue sharing agreement. Tx is either going to have to give up some $$$ or go I dependent.

 

[EVILFACE]

Texas isn't needed, leave em and bring in the Mormons.

BYU? They want to be independent, they think they of the same level as Notre Dame.

 

[316what]

LSU's road gauntlet continues Saturday night in Morgantown, West Virginia.

 

[BuffyGirl]

I almost think Texas would prefer to go independent. I want them to give up some $$$ to be honest. Guess we'll see.

This is a bi week for the Longhorns so no Texas football for me. I'll try to catch a few other college games though.

They would be dumb to do so. They would have to pay lots of money to get big teams to come pay them so they had a chance to make a BCS bowl especially if all the super conferences come about. They will have very little chance to get ND treatment from the BCS , I doubt Nd would get that treatment now.

They will never give up the money.

Agreed!

BYU actually has their own TV network.

Couple good games today.

#7 Oklahoma State at #8 Texas A&M

#2 LSU at #16 West Virginia


You're probably looking at Boise State vs. LSU/Wisconsin/Alabama/Oklahoma in the BCS Championship game.

~Boise State just doesn't play anybody after the Georgia win.

 

[The Josh]

The bad thing for teams like Boise is the bigger schools want them to come play there all the time. My guess its hard to get more than 1 really good game a year.

Also, the so called "good bigger schools" don't want to take the chance of putting an excellent program like Boise State on their non-conference schedule because they could lose and ruin their season.

Boise State needs to move out of the loser Mountain West conference and go to the Pac-12.

Josh, sadly it all comes down to the money these days. Nobody wants to schedule a home and home series with Boise State because their stadium won't provide enough revenue for good visiting teams.
