2016 NCAA Football Thread

Yeah, only FBS game.

Go Navy. Army does have the better uniforms this year, honoring WW2 paratroopers.

 

Navy by 21

 

No I wasn't. Everyone was saying they didn't have a chance and were not as good as tcu. I clearly and accurately predicted that they were not to be taken lightly like all of you did.

How did I defend them by saying they were good? I just liked rubbing it in because you all thought a 3rd string qb was toast...

 

Bruh...everyone in this thread has always thought you were a golden domer/buckeye jock rider.

 

I still don't think they were as good as TCU and I really feel like they (osu) were gifted that 4 spot.

 

So, the more I read, the happier I am by the Taggart hire by Oregon. He's done great things at USF.

 

College Openings:
Houston (Tom Herman hired by Texas)
South Florida (Willie Taggart hired by Oregon)
Cincinnati (Tommy Tuberville resigns)
Georgia State (Trent Miles fired)

College Openings Filled:
LSU hired Ed Orgeron (Les Miles fired)
Texas hired Tom Herman (Charlie Strong fired)
Oregon hired Willie Taggart (Mark Helfrich fired)
Baylor hired Matt Rhule (Art Briles fired)
Indiana hired Tom Allen (Kevin Wilson fired)
Purdue hired Jeff Brohm (Darrell Hazell fired)
Fresno State hired Jeff Tedford (Tim DeRuyter fired)
Florida International hired Butch Davis (Ron Turner fired)
UC-Davis hired Dan Hawkins (Ron Gould fired)

 

Miss St could have been without a coach if Oregon went that route. I guess he was in our top 2....

Houston should pick up Lane Kiffin. South Florida should get Charlie Strong. Cincy... I have no idea, maybe Helfrich has a chance?

 

I think Les is more of an option at Houston. Last I heard, they weren't seeing eye to eye with Kiffin's agent.

That was a few days ago, so things may have changed since.

 

QB David Cornwell transferring from Bama.

 

Houston hiring Kiffin

 

LMAO i dont think they'll win off of one play, EVEN THOUGH one play can change the outcome of the ENTIRE game. however the explosiveness on offense that washington has, along with a few key Bama defensive injuries, can make this go bad. not to mention the Bama offense is taking a while to heat up now and no telling how it will be with the lane kiffin coaching distractions ahead.

 

and im not saying washington will win, but it could be an interesting game that most wont expect. i think bama wins by 7-10 points

Jim Harbaugh campaigned for the pre-game spear plant to happen at the Orange Bowl saying:

"I've always wanted to go there and see what that atmosphere was like in person. This will be as close as I've ever been to that. I'm excited for that. I know I'm going to get some chills when that Appaloosa comes riding out there."

Looks like he will get his wish, as Osceola and Renegade are making the trek to Miami.

 

This is by far the best pregame performance in all of CFB.

 

have this at 1st and colorado's "ralphie's run" at 2nd. electrifying

 

You're gonna think I'm crazy here, but I honestly think the slow start offense was done somewhat on purpose in certain games.

Its all too obvious that when Bama starts of running the ball, they put up points quickly.

Its also obvious that Bama can lean on the defense to keep points OFF the board, giving Kiffin the ability to try and get Hurts warmed up in the passing game, and Ardarius Stewart/ Calvin Ridley running around creating havoc.

However, this has disguised all the things Bama can do, by not creating film for other teams to study.

 

Clemson is probably second for me.


Obviously, I'm a fan of how Bama just floods the field.

 

Ralphie Run is pretty awesome. Having 4 guys guide a 2000 lb Buffalo around the field is crazy. Plus, those guys run like 12 sec 100 yd dashes in boots.

 

I don't think it's crazy at all... I got the feeling that Bama was just trying some things in the passing game... almost like a live-action practice.
