American Football (NFL, College, etc.)

Oregon's in big trouble with Dixon out for the season... Their chances of being 'SC are just about zero now. :puppydog:

Now I gotta root for the Sun Devils to beat the Troj-Enz, 'cause I know UCLA ain't gonna do it. :shakehead:

Who's number 42? :headscratch:

I haven't checked, but my guess would be Alex Smith. The entire offense has been anemic, as has been brought up by many folks.

Three really uncompetitive football games today:

Packers all over the Lions, 37-26, the Plowboys over the Jets, 34-3, and the Colts over the Falcons, 31-13.... :bleh:

LSU loses to Arkansas, 50-48, in a 3OT shootout... :hehe:

And the BCS Number One revolving door turns again. :mrgreen:

So Missouri vs. KU, who do you think it's gonna be?

Haven't a clue... Totally unfamiliar with those two teams.


I guess I should say Mizzou or you'll bonk me on the head. :beaten: :hehe:

I have no idea who that is: I suppose he's a QB or RB for Mizzou, ne?

Wikipedia time. :)

QB. Haha, I'll stop bugging you about my team. The only team I barely know anything about. I have no clue how college football playoffs work. Want to school me? :beaten:

With the BCS, no one knows how the playoffs work... :shakehead: :bleh:

With numerous key players injured, Oregon gets beat by UCLA (of all teams), 16-0...

Now all USC has to do is beat UCLA next weekend to go to the Rose Bowl. :shakehead:

The one time I root for UCLA to lose and the suckers win the game... By a shut out, no less. :shakehead:

Oh, the irony. :doh:

Hahahah, did you see FSU kick a 60-yd field goal?! :rofl:

Nope... :sweat:

The battle for the top spot on the BCS poll starts in about 20 minutes: Kansas-Missouri...

Missouri leading at half 14-0. Kansas two missed FG's! ahah, I'm going nuts here :bonk:

Kansas made it close, but Mizzou wins, 36-28.

Tomorrow's new BCS rankings should be interesting. :sweat:

Yeah, I wonder if West Virginia will pull out on top. I don't know anything about them so I can't say who will. Either way, Mizzou is gonna play Oklahoma, the only team we've lost to this year.

LOL, it's a literal log jam at the top of the BCS rankings.... Anyone got any dynamite? :hehe:

Mizzou tops the AP poll... West Virigina tops the USA Today poll...

BCS standings coming later. :sweat:

Giants getting slapped around by the Vikings, 24-10, in the 3rd. :shakehead:
