2007 College Football Thread

Oklahoma State at Georgia baby!

I'll take Cal and the spread for 5 rep. Last I heard Tennessee was favored by 5.5 points.

A few random, but no means complete predictions...

Cal takes Tennessee.

Auburn over K-State, but Wildcats keep em honest

Texas Tech over SMU, close.

Oklahoma will win, but won't score 20 points against N. Texas.

My Pokes over Georgia.

Mizzou over Illinois by not nearly as much as it ought be.

Auburn takes Kansas State by 7 points or less.

Oklahoma State takes Georgia by 3 provided they can completely shut down Georgia's passing game.

Cal over the Vols by two touchdowns.

Tech upsets the Irish.

More later.

I am so happy that football is back. I missed it. I leave the sound of it in the background, just to relax me.
Yay, football.

OK here is my prediction Vandy will lose most of it's games, and provide a shocking loss to a top 25 school...you know pretty much like we always do.

I'll give you Call over Tennessee, Auburn over KSU, even Slowkie St over Georgia... but Tech over SMU a close game???

We're looking at a minimum 17 point victory, probably 21... and OU is going to absolutely obliterate UNT, 56-7, and that 7 is generous.

I've got UT over TCU 28-17 as well, and I think they'll struggle to do it.

How'z that for some predictions?

Bah, ou's starting a true freshman quarterback, and is notorious for slow starts, no matter how much they hype their frosh.

Forgot about the ut/TCU game.

Washington spanking Syracuse at home 35-6, they deserve it for those hideous uniforms.

Aggies have a win coming, I'm going A&M 35 - Montana 10

Did fucking Appalachian State just beat Michigan??? Tell me this isn't true. God dammit!! Why do I even try to fill out a football pick 'em card in any contest?

On one hand, Appalachian State is the two time division I-AA defending champion.

On the other hand, no division I-AA school has EVER beaten a ranked Div I-A school.

Lloyd Carr has got to go.

Pac-10 is looking pretty good so far. Oregon St beat up on Utah physically, winning the game while knocking out their QB and RB for the season. A supposedly bottom dwelling Washington team crushed Syracuse. And right now Washinton St is giving Wisconsin all they can handle at Wisconsin (of course, there's a lot of time left in that one, Whiskey should pull away).

Holy Shit!

Appalachian State did it.

Joy

I gather Auburn is fucked without this particular running back? He should have gone to class or gotten a tutor. Tsk tsk...

The team isn't sunk without him, but it'd be a hell of a lot better to have him around. Auburn typically sucks during the first game regardless of who they're playing.

I can't disagree with this at all. Student first, Athlete second. Why didn't he ask for a tutor when he knew his grades were slipping? I'm sure the team would have found an NCAA friendly way to make it happen.

It makes you wonder. I guess the athletes think it'll never happen to them, i.e. getting suspended. There's a lot more where he came from, I'm sure, and not just at Auburn.

And the lie that is the Big Ten continues.

Holy Shit!!

Tech is up 19-3 on the Irish at the close of the 3rd Quarter.

Yes, I've been watching that game on my new HDTV...

I'm watching Nebraska lay a beating on Nevada right now... pretty boring, time to switch games.

We're going to miss a quarter of the O-State/Georgia game if Mizzou doesn't hurry its ass up and finish.

Terrific, they went 3 and out on their first series and then fumbled the snap on the punt. Georgia scores from State's 12 yard line.

What channel is that on?

ESPN 2 if Missouri ever gets finished.

Touchdown O-State.

There was six the Dawgs couldn't capitalize on.

Notre Dame manages to lose 33-3. Every season that team is the most consistently over rated team... I hate that BCS bowl rule more and more every time I watch them.

I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.

I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.

I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.

I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body, and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports to develop these qualities.

I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.

I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.

I believe in my Country, because it is the land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God."

And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.
