Other Games - Week 8

[Hungry Jack]

Friday Fun Fact: The unicorn is the national animal of Scotland.

Isaiah Bowser ran for 111 yards tonight as UCF beat Memphis.

Appalachian State upset 14 Coastal Carolina Wednesday night 30-27. Recall Appy State’s upset of Michigan several years ago.

Colorado St vs Utah St tonight should be a good matchup.

On Saturday, some of the better matchups include:

8 OK St at Iowa St. should be good

USC goes to South Bend

16 Wake Forest goes to West Point

Air Force hosts 22 San Diego St

 

[IAWildcat79]

Who knew that Oklahoma/Kansas was a game to watch? 10-0 KU at halftime? Wow...

 

[Hungry Jack]

Illinois giving PSU a real dogfight too.

Lots of points at West Point today.

 

[TheC]

Cincy held on for a win but they might as well have lost. That game will knock them out of contention.

ILL PSU overtime

ILL PSU overtime

I hate Penn State so much, I’m actually rooting for Illinois.

 

[TheC]

Good lord… Wake Forest beat Army 70-56. In football!!

 

[NUCat320]

State College Special fails!

 

[DaCat]

Illannoys turned around their OL.

 

[TheC]

Ill just lost their QB for the year I bet. Putting on the air cast. Uggh.

 

[FeralFelidae]

For those watching the Illinois game, what do you think of the new 2-point shootout?

 

[TheC]

I’ve never seen such poor execution as these multiple failed 2 pt conversations.

I like

 

[cattul]

PSU looking slightly more dominant, going into the 8th OT. (My goodness.)

Edit: Uh-oh.

Edit: phew

 

[DaCat]

I’ve never seen such poor execution as these multiple failed 2 pt conversations.

Both sides of the Illannoys line are playing lights out

 

[FeralFelidae]

I like

Well, if the purpose was supposed to be to shorten the game, I'm not sure it's working.

 

[TheC]

Good god… what has happened to Penn State?

 

[NUCat320]

Should declare a tie after the tenth OT.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

I never thought I would be rooting for Illinois, but watching James get knocked out a playoff chance bt a lowly West Division team was golden. How about the East now James? Better hit LSU while you can.

 

[Jaguar 88]

Damn we might not win the big hat this year!!!!

 

[FanatiCat]

Wow, I thought it was an error on my Yahoo Sports app when I saw 9OT. I was at a concert so I wasn’t following.

 

[NREPP Fraud]

For those watching the Illinois game, what do you think of the new 2-point shootout?

Fun!

 

[No Chores]

Hmmmm, I thought this was the Illinois team that everybody on the Board said was terrible? Bottom line: Bielema is a good coach and Illinois is a pretty decent team.

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

No on both counts. I’ll stand my opinion until proven otherwise.

 

[phatcat]

Here's an idea - get rid of OT and bring back the tie. Coaches would actually try to win

 

[No Chores]

No on both counts. I’ll stand my opinion until proven otherwise.

Well your entitled to your opinion. I guess it doesn't count when you beat the No. 7 team in the country!

I am willing to take a Yuengling bet that they lose more than than they win for the rest of the season? Payable at the NC tent.

That's not a bad bet, No Chores. They only have 4 games left and if they split, you win. Get to play RU and us, might win both

Doesn’t matter if I lose. The Illini love from our fans around here makes me sick. Not directed at you NC, but we have some people on here that bitch about everything you can think of.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Clemson is bad

 

[Purple Pile Driver]

Clemson is bad

That’s why they were a dog to Pitt. Fire Dabo.

I'll take the bet, but I'm only coming to one more game - Minny next week. Frankly, I hope I lose, and I'm always glad to share my Yuengling. as you know. My only point is that Illinois is a decent football team, and Bielema has turned them around. Stop by the tailgate in the west lot next week and you can have a few Yuenglings.

 

[Hungry Jack]

I had a Yeungling last night with my pad thai. It was tasty.

Were you able to get it in Evanston? I'm coming out next Friday unarmed with Yuengling. I'm flying, so all beer will need to be purchased in Evanston.

 

[CatManTrue]

OSU is up 37-7 on Indiana with 5 minutes to play in the first half.

Which is good. I’ll cheer against Indiana as long as Allen is their HC. That play by the DE to end Hunter’s season in 2019 was probably the dirtiest thing I’ve seen on a football field.

44-7 at the half.

Ryan Day is showing no mercy. Making the case to jump Cincy into the playoffs.

I bet Fitz is glad Tom Allen is having an even worse season than NU is.

So, Hungry Jack and No Chores, you are going to get together and drink Yuengling next weekend? I so wish I could be there, especially given it is Minnesota who I believe we will beat at Ryan.

Indiana sub QB looks like that kid from MN that had more ints than completions. Edit they took him out

 

[phatcat]

Minnesota had 326 yards rushing, using their 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th string backs. Shudder

I’m in Fayetteville AR on a gravel biking trip. A good day biking beats a bad day in Ann Arbor.

I just got a 12 piece. I can bring you some next week. One cannot get Yeungling in Illinois.
