2008 NCAA Football Thread

Notre Dame invading the islands!

By the way, how do you like the Big Ten matchups in these bowl games?

OSU/Texas, Penn State/USC, MSU/Georgia, South Carolina/Iowa, Kansas/Minnesota, Missouri/Northwestern, Wisconsin/FSU.

I’m not sure if I see a Big Ten win in ANY of those games. Maybe in the Iowa game if they can shut down SC but that’s about it. Get ready for some Big Ten bashing.

Everybody was calling the B10 weak and that they were having a “down year.” I thought maybe if they could get some teams into some bowl games and win a few it might dispel those thoughts.

You’re right, the matchups are not favorable. To win 4 would be lucky. I see those 4 being Penn State (Yes, Penn State), Northwestern, Wisconsin and perhaps Iowa. What the hell happened to Georgia? Weren’t they #1 at one point? It’s like they fell off the face of the earth.

WOLVERINES IN '09!!!

As usual, Georgia was overrated…I don’t even get why they were that high in the first place…all they did was demolish an overmatched Hawaii team that struggled to beat WAC teams last year and suddenly they were the #1 team. Once they got spanked by Bama, it was over and they even lost a late season game to Georgia Tech which was pretty funny. Of course I still think they’re killing my Spartans.

And I don’t see Minnesota at all…that’s a team that got punked for 50 points by Iowa…yes IOWA, in their last game…now they’re facing Missouri. I would give Iowa, Wisconsin and Northwestern a chance…

I thought Georgia was actually pre-season #1. Or maybe that was SI. Someone had them #1 before the season started because they had a bunch of starters returning (and yes, based on their demolishing of a clearly overmatched Hawaii team).

You never know which Minnesota team is going to show up. Northwestern has been real solid all year, too.

Let’s hope next year is better for the B10!

Haha, at one point this is what Thom Brennaman’s Wiki entry actually read (last line).

I don’t know about you, but “Tebowner” is my new favorite phrase.

I won $300. Thanks Gators!

too bad i’m not saying this about the Dolphins but I live in a family of die-hard Gators so this works good for me!

Go Gators!

If you love Chuck Norris facts, you’ll love these.

Haha, I think this is my favorite:

“When life gives Tim Tebow lemons, he uses them to kill terrorists. Tim Tebow hates lemonade.”

some of those were recycled from the Chuck Norris craze but some of them were really funny.

like this one:

“When Tim Tebow wants popcorn, he breathes on Nebraska.”

def gonna have to send this to mi madre.
