2012 NCAA Football Thread

Its ok, we lost to Florida......

 

I guess it boils down to a 5-7 middle of the pack SEC team beating a 7-5 middle of the pack ACC team. Or Florida beating FSU. Or the "chickens" beating Clemson. The SEC wins most head to head match ups with the ACC and other conferences.

It'll be interesting to see if this trend continues in the bowls.

 

I love rivalry games where I have no interest in who wins, its awesome to watch. My favorite Clemson/Carolina game was the one with the bench-clearing brawl

 

Oh clearly there are different strengths of conferences. I agree completely. but posting a picture that says that a badass like Dabo isn't a badass because he doesn't coach at an SEC school, well, that's just not badass... man.

 

nope!

bout the only one that will be very entertaining though haha.

 

This year for ACC vs. SEC we have

NC State vs. Vandy

LSU vs. Clemson

and thats it

 

NC State plays Vandy

 

I meant the trend of SEC vs everyone else.

 

BCS Bowl appearances and wins by conference

Big 12: 19 9-10
Pac 12: 18 11-7
ACC: 15 2-13
Big East:14 7-7

SEC is the highest at .696
ACC is the lowest at .133

And don't forget, one of those SEC losses is because they played another SEC team

I'm not sure I'd call "Dabo (I don't need no nickname) Sweeny a bad-ass."









I feel certain, I'll be persecuted over this post, as I have over the last few.

 

Youdont have to like him, or think he's a badass, but Ya gotta respect the man for what he's done and how far he's come in life...and for what he's done at Clemson.

Research him. Pretty cool backstory to the guy.

 

Got a buddy tryin to sell 2 tickets to Clemson/LSU tonight. Sucks that I'm sick or I'd go. Section 127 row 3. 90 per ticket but he's tryin to get rid of em and said I could have both for 50

 

I know the field goal was not good, but I still don't understand the reviewable plays. Why can you review something like that which discredits the Refs but you can't review something like a P.I.?

Just doesn't make since to me?!?!?

 

Because a penalty is a penalty. If they change it to being able to review those, who is to say they can't say something like-- "Well, there was a PI on the defense, but holding by the offense. The new penalty offsets the PI."

 

So it is kind of like reviewing a touchdown? I guess that makes since

Thanks

 

It's like he has never seen a good looking helmet before
