"Climbing is easier than hanging on" - Duck football

You need asterisk by your last statement DDD, that only applies to BCS teams, if TCU wins a semi close game against SDSU(SDSU never had the ball with a chance to take the lead) they get multiple segments of sportscenter devoted to how this kills their NC chances.

Maybe, but has tcu dropped in the polls? Sportscenter also mentioned how The Zeros struggled against Kal. When top teams are playing close games against unranked teams, it makes the highlights.

The clips of the tcu game I saw all emphasized that tcu eventually pulled away and put the game out of reach.

Tcu has a bigger problem...if auburn wins out in conference play and then gets an extra showcase game in he conference championship game, tcu is obviously out. Pounding sdsu would not have changed that.

Auburn has to play the first half without two of their starters on defense after they got ejected late in the game yesterday. I think Bama wins that game.

Yeah, how dumb were those players? The guys calling that game were going nuts about it. I too think Bama makes that game their season now and takes Auburn down.

So stupid. They were up by enough that there was no doubt the game was over.

I didn't think they were starters, but that they get significant playing time. That #90 for Auburn was being a total dick the entire game, repeatedly driving the QB hard into the turf. I know that defensive players are supposed to rattle the QB but I thought is was a bit excessive.

Did anyone catch the pregame show for Oregon vs. Cal? I don't know the guy's name but he was saying "now I know Ducks aren't supposed to fly but this is one duck who can...." and later he marvels again "hard to believe but he's a duck that can fly". I backed it up and watched it again and I'm nearly 100% certain that he really didn't know that ducks can fly.

I did the same double take and backed it up to hear him again. I was cracking up with those.

Noooooooooooo.... not the Duckface.

I'm so disappointed in Erin now.

Uh, damn. Uncle Phil pouring $41mil into what is already a state-of-the-art and modern football program is sick.

Oregon going to kick Oregon St's ass. It isn't going to be pretty.

I saw this yesterday and immediately thought, "Well, this confirms that Tedford was behind it." The claims of faking came out right away so if the school had cared and had not been aware of this diabolical plan, they would have found out quickly and he would have suspended him for the one game immediately -- that would have been The Big Game.

No suspension vs. Stanford = complicity.

OK, I'm aboard with the Ducks for the National Title now.

Kick Auburn's ass.

GO PAC!

I'm sick of hearing about the SEC.

Slow start, Barner finally looks to be back to 100% from the monster hit and concussion he took at Wazzu.

Funny that on OS' big special uniform day, the Ducks out uniform them. LOL Beavos.
