2011 NCAA Football Thread

if the clemson that has been playing for all but these last two games shows up on the field vs v tech they will be able to win that one man. that defense is gonna have to be quick though to keep up with those turkeys. they love playing a fast game.

 

Man you never know what to expect out of both Carolina & Clemson on any given day......they're both unreliable.

 

As much as it pains me to say this is probably the truth.

 

Keep in mind that our D is supposedly pretty damn good, I even probably would say it's better than anything you guys faced all season. And i heard that your best OL guy was playing on a bum knee?

 

I don't think it'd be all that great...the defense will hold the offense down. Look at what happened the last 2 times Oregon played a team with a defense (LSU, Auburn). They averaged 49 last year, scored 19 against Auburn. In their 11 games other than the LSu game this year, they averaged 47.5 ppg. They scored 27 (and 7 of those were in "garbage time".) A great defense will shut down a great offense almost every time. I know people like to see huge offensive numbers, and I'll watch those games too, but I'm more interested in defensive numbers.

Coming into today UGA was allowing an average of 81 rushing ypg, and held UF and UT to NEGATIVE rushing yards for the ENTIRE GAME. That's freakin impressive. We gave up somewhere around 240 rushin yards today...but Tech ran the ball 53 freakin times. I'd hate to be a wide receiver and play for Tech. (Although Calvin Johnson and Baybay Thomas are makin plenty of money after comin outta Tech).

 

Very impressive.....how do you think your guys will fare against LSU....#13 nationally with points & #2 nationally in defense.

 

Victory for LSU!

 

Just got home from the game... Loved it... had four Clemson fans sitting beside me...

I had one of the while towels they give out at the game. On the way in, one of them said they were glad I had something to cry into...lol

 

GO COCKS! My dad is a USC Alum, haha

 

Should of offered him the towel.

 

Probably one hell of a guy too!

 

I was pulling for the Wolverines all the way.

Yeah and look at the passing game, it wasn't very good.

This will be a test to see just how good our D is. Everyone is saying we haven't played anyone. Well here is the grand opportunity to prove ourselves. So I just hope we make it enough of a game and with a break or two to give us a shot.

This is the game of the year for us. I don't care who we wind up playing in what ever bowl, this game is bigger.

 

I don't think they're gonna give up 41 like Arky did. If we can keep up what we've been doin, I think they'll take the run game away and make JJ/J Lee beat us with their arm. As long as our offense shows up, and Mike Bobo brings the playbook he used against Auburn and doesn't make stupid play calls, I think it's gonna be a much, much closer game than what people are thinking right now.

 

DAmn cant catch a break with everyone having a good week.

I like the fact that people are thinking of Michigan getting into a BCS bowl game. As of last night, they were predicting them playing Houston in the Sugar Bowl. We wwill see. I just like the way that our program has turned around basically with the same players, just MUCH better coaching.
10-2, Ill take it PLUS beating OSU...
Now just to get back at lil brother next year.

 

I don't know why but I've just had this strange feeling that Mich. would wind up playing us in a bowl this year. I have a co-worker that is from Mich and a fan of both them and my Dawgs. I talk a lot of football with him and had the thought that we might wind up pretty even and could play each other.
