Die NC State die.

FSU/Maryland is huge for the coastal division race. If FSU wins and NCstate loses to Carolina FSU will play VAtech in the ACC championship. Even if FSU wins I think if NCstate wins their last two they would be the winner if it is determined by head to head. Maryland also controls its destiny as they are in with two victories.

U know Billiema is still getting questioned about putting up 83 last week against Indiana. My opinion, the man shoulda went for 90.

It's time to take down the old ball coach! We all know what happened the last time SC made their way up to Corvallis......

Am I the only one who doesn't give a rats ass about college football games being played in Yankees Stadium and Wrigley Field? The media is trying to convince me I care, but I'm not buying. I don't really see what's so great about football games being played in a baseball stadium...

It will be more entertaining when a kid is paralyzed from running into the wall when playing in Wrigley.

I remember hockey there, have they ever played football at Wrigley? The Pats used to play at Fenway and that was brutal.

Bears played there until 1970.

I fully expect Nebraska to rape us.

49erNation85 · 11-18-2010, 08:26 PM

Locker's accuracy is looking like crap tonight.It seem slike he always running for his life against any team UW plays .However, it does look like he has great foot work ( to me ) and descent arm , no long deep throws so far tonight. Still tough choice to be a top 10 pick tho very tough .

Alabama is so good they are just destroying Georgia State.

Smooth Criminal · 11-19-2010, 09:40 AM

Going down to Louisville to hopefully watch them upset WVU. Let's go Cards.

Bucks have another tough game. Hopefully they can handle Iowa on the road. Pains me to root for Michigan this week but it has to happen. Wisconsin losing means potential for me to attend the Rose Bowl again. Yes please.

So Breaking News: the Illinois-Northwestern game is only going to use one endzone. Heard it on the radio here in Chicago. Going back to playground rules of losers walk. Amazingly thought out here.

BeerBaron · 11-19-2010, 05:35 PM

So how many hundreds of yards will Wisconsin rush for against Michigan? 400? 500??

BeerBaron · 11-19-2010, 08:58 PM

Kellen Moore being a little dude has hurt him on a cold and rainy night. Had a pass batted into an INT, now possibly fumbled the ball while rearing back to throw...just slipped out of his hands.

I dont get how that was reviewable. it was ruled an incomplete pass which makes it dead as soon as it hits the ground. They blew the whistle so anything that happens from there is unpredictable in some sense right?

I thought so too.....but idk. Apparently they can review and overturn it because they did. I know they changed the rule a few years ago to where you can review it if it's called down by contact but looks like a fumble....maybe it's the same deal as that.

yeah i was screaming at the tv thinking they could hear me but obviously they didnt care about what i had to say.

SickwithIt1010 · 11-19-2010, 10:17 PM

Mark May is the biggest ******* idiot...

Boise State has over 300 yds.....FSU has 75 but he thinks "this is a very close football game" because instead of being ahead 42-0 they are only up 20-0

lets be ******* real here. They are dominating this football game still.

wonderbredd24 · 11-20-2010, 10:17 AM

All they have done is beaten everyone on their schedule including Virginia Tech, who is looking to finish off a perfect ACC record.

They are most certainly an elite team and deserve their shot to prove it, provided they beat Nevada.

The very same Virginia Tech who lost at home to 1-AA James Madison? Right.

And when they learn to play real teams more consistently instead of playing one above-average team per year, maybe they can earn it.

Who cares? They've won the 8 games since then. Clearly, they let Boise State beat them twice, but they have bounced back and look like they will be headed to a BCS Bowl as the ACC champion.

You cannot be an elite team if you can't beat a 1-AA team at home. You just can't. I would know.
