    I've said in this thread how even though the scores aren't showing it, each game they (and I) are getting more confident/comfortable in this offense.

    We've been working out the kinks, and now it's starting to show.


    Lets just settle down now (NO MORE INTERCEPTIONS!!) and don't get in the way of our D winning this.

    Shoulda gotten points on our first drive, and then not let them take points on theirs....

    Oh well... hopefully our O keeps up the same intensity and as last drive but just bank on it.

    Tech stomps another sub par opponent... I hope they're ready for the real games that are coming.

    I went to the A&M vs Miami [-]game[/-] curb stomping today... A&M looks worse than I've ever seen them. Miami easily put up 41 points then just fucked around and let the ags score a few times. That game was so much worse than the final score made it look.

    Congrats LSU.

    On the Defensive side of the ball, there was nothing we could do. LSU's offense kicked into gear and took us apart in the fourth quarter. There was nothing our D could do. Good job to the LSU players and coaches.

    On the Offensive side of the ball... :wtf:

    That's coaching, folks. Sure, the players have to do it on the field, but the coaches job is to get them ready to do it on the field and then adapt with a good game plan. Apparently, we're doing neither from a coaching point of view.

    So did anyone pay attention to that Ohio State/Troy game? I'm gonna chalk it up to yet another "Buckeyes asleep at the wheel then score in the fourth to make it look respectable". :bailey:

    The SEC looked pretty impressive again. But USC and OSU were off.

    We'll see how things shape out when the bloodletting starts. I don't think any of the SEC teams are going to run the table.

    We're ranked! Ranked! I'm pretty much in shock! I'm happy and frightened all at the same time! But you'd better believe I'll be at the Vandy game on Oct. 4

    I think this needs to be repeated constantly: the SEC is the best conference in college football.

    My order of merit:
    SEC
    Big 12
    Pac-10
    ACC
    Big East
    Big Ten

    I agree on the SEC and Big 12, but the Pac 10 can go to hell.

    We had bad ass seats. Literally right on the field. All of the VP's that were to be introduced during the game were brought right in front of us. We got to see Miss Texas. She looked like a lot of other sorority girls around campus. We also got a close up look at a bronze medal when an Aggie Olympian climbed over the wall into our seats. Kinda neat

    Also, the fly by was awesome. Say what you will, Marso, but the Super Hornet is about the loudest damn jet I've ever seen. Hard to believe something so underpowered could make such a satisfying noise.

    Well, it took three games this time for USC to flush away another shot at the national championship.

    1-2 Oregon State is manhandling them like the Trojans are their prison bitches. 14-0 OSU with less than 2 minutes in the half. This is worse than bad- it's fucking embarrassing.

    If SC comes back and wins it in the second half- which doesn't look likely- they won't even be in the top 5 come this weekend. Shit, they'll be lucky to be ranked at all after this game.
