2012 NCAA Football Thread

Prolly a slow year for the Updykes...

 

Simmer down. Only 4 were football and minor at that.

Y'alls bowl game just started on U.

 

Against Sparty? Don't remind me. Freakin missed opportunities....

 

Yep.

 

You still have that score in shoe polish on your back window don't you?

Texas does not have to self repot because there is nothing to report. You try to justify your team cheating by saying everyone does it. I dont remember Texas having any NCAA violations since the late 80's or maybe early 90's. You should be proud that your school is one of the most penalized in NCAA history. Fits right up there next to all the titles yall claim.

Exactly.

 

Prolly the LSU score for real.

Oh please...not sure but it sounds like some jealousy going on here. BUT, you seem to blindly follow TX like the Pedd State fans follow joe pa...

 

What's up with the fumbleitis? Think it's preseason rust?

Richt not impressed with turnover-riddled scrimmage

"
“Every time the quarterback got touched, they fumbled the ball,” Richt said. “They’re not supposed to get tackled, but sometimes they’ll get touched. … We better get better at that.”
On top of that Murray, Mason and LeMay each threw an interception, making a total of eight turnovers.
“Just bad interceptions, bad throws,” Richt said. “Well, one Corey (Moore) made a great play. I’ll give him that.”
Not the stuff that makes up an SEC contender."

 

I'm trying to find the source, but I've read that UT-Austin and UA-Tuscaloosa each have 4 major violations in their history.

Here's a graphic from an AL.com article in 2008, so numbers might have changed.... But since 1953, the "bottom 25" - actually 29 - programs w/ the most major NCAA infractions:
(I didn't add the bold for auburn... The article was here in Alabama, so they were highlighting Alabama schools in the list, and auburn was the only one.)

 

Heck if I know...as long as it gets worked out before the season then that's ok...On a better note, I see that our freshman RBs are tearing it up...

 

Yeah, but against Georgia's defense.

 

I sure hope this is the case.....

"In the early 2000’s every team Virginia Tech played was intimidated by the special teams. The Hokies could block kicks or if they didn’t get to them they had returners that new how to run it back to the end zone. The Hokies special teams at that time were like the dark priest in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Beamerball could put its hand into the opponent’s chest and pull out its heart and show it to them."

"I was just talking to Coach Beamer yesterday and asked him, ‘Are you going to let us loose to go block some punts?’ That’s something I’m trying to bring back. I remember seeing those guys back in the day, blocking punts and returning ‘em, things like that. So that’s definitely something we want to do and I think we can do that with the people we have.” Beamerball has dissipated since 2005 but it now appears ready for a comeback. If it indeed does come back then the ACC has been warned."

 

So Texas A&M and Georgia aren't in the SEC? How about Miss St? Kentucky?

 

Sorry... I didn't look closely enough. I guess they were just highlighting schools in Alabama. Fixed original post.

Also, since the article is from 2008, aTm wasn't in the SEC yet.

 

That was against our 2nd team D, but hey, these two are not bad RBs...AND our D will be right up there will yalls again this year - I think they will be better than last year's...
