Not sure why I'm so much more excited for this NCG than in years past. This game better not have an early buzzkill moment like when Colt's arm died last year, and if it does, please let it be an Oregon player. I parlayed Auburn -3 and under 72.

Go Horned Frogs.

wait, what?

by **Triple-S** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 7:57 pm

man never thought TCU and Stanford could make it the finals this year.

following those upset wins against Auburn and Oregon in the final four last week, and TCU upsetting Arkansas with Mallet throwing those three INT's in Dallas, was amazed that this was going to be the matchup in the desert we all thought it could be.

...oh that's right, we're stuck with Auburn V. Oregon because we have a complete and utter shit system.

I don't know, I'm just hoping it's oregon tonight, solely because I can't stand SEC-Fan.

Having just pulled out of the death spiral commenting on why I think Walrus is screwing up the HC search for the Browns, I can't believe that I'm about to go here.....

SSS - you have already established that you don't care about "conference pride" - so why do you care what SEC fan says?

As an aside, if any fav conference not named SEC had won 4 consecutive BCS Championships, I would be willing to wager a fair amount that many on this board would be more insufferable than they are already :cheers:

Go Ducks.

Good luck on the bets CTBin07. Wiseguys have really bought that line down all day. Amazing to watch what happens to a betting line with a month and a half worth of money coming down on it.

I have Auburn at even money to win the 1st half. That's it for right now. I'm waiting to see what happens to the line by kickoff.

I'd like to watch college football in peace and for it to focus on individuals both in regards to teams and players.

I'd like to be the first to congratulate Oregon on their BCS championship that they will either win tonight or on the yet to be determined date in the future when Auburn's ridiculous violations force them to vacate the title.

Congrats Ducks!! You can't lose........ultimately.

I want to see a goddamned track meet. 55-50, or there abouts.

Fukin-aye!

Nice match-up. Love seeing a couple different tems play in this game

...and love the Duck unis

Can't wait to see those yellow feet at full throttle

Kelly is such a dick in interviews. It's hilarious.

Good!
No business yanking the coach over for an interview after the coin toss

Sick of that shit and the flying in the face camera

by **trsteve1** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:00 pm

damnit.. posted to late to make my prediction that this would be a defensive struggle..

but first 7.5 minutes of the game seem to be going that way..

Newton looked at one receiver and threw.. turns out against good Defenses.. first guy isn't always open?!?!
Seems like he shoulda known that already, guess not..

by **peeker643** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:02 pm

Sloppy.

Maybe they need more than 36 days to prepare for this kind of game. :hide:

And ya might wanna at least get a piece of Fairley as heads toward your QB.

Well.. didn't OSU get 50 a few years ago and still get blowed out?
More time ain't it.. having less gimmicky offenses wouldn't hurt

by **peeker643** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:07 pm

You can see the hamster in Cam Newton's head running his ass off to spin that wheel. Clearly he has dad HAD to be the brains of the operation if blitz recognition and reads are to be believed.

No, Newton is a pro-ready QB, you obviously have it wrong, I have heard this said at least by 3 people, one of whom was my cat.. you are mistaken about the hamster, it is a gerbil.

Really? Ya think 37 days was enough? ::doh::

Defenses are playing inspired ball too.

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:33 pm

I knew Jeff Maehl over 83.5 receiving yards was too easy.

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:36 pm

17 points in 4 minutes.

Yeah but SEC speed huge there in holding that play to just 81 yards. ;-) ;) :wink:

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:36 pm

OK, make it 18.

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:37 pm

The option from the holder to the kicker. Fairly certain that I've never seen that before and never will again.

In Auburn's defense, I think the refs missing holding on the left tackle at the goal line.

Lesson I learned years ago

Never ever play the under in college football

Man this is so much better than the stupid gay ass wenis NFL. I mean really..... The NFL is so boring and stupid compared to CFB. It's the dullard's league....... lol "NFL". What a crap product.

by **Fire Marshall Bill** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:43 pm

Luck. You could hit it 10 times in a row and I still wouldn't ply it

Just sayin it was my rule of thumb after the OT rules

Makes sense. I never play it in a game with a spread around 3, though. Too much chance of OT. That we agree on.

That's true.. all the dropped passes, missed opportunities, less talent on the field make the games way more interesting to watch, because there are more missed tackles, blocks etc and thus "Bigger" and "more exciting" plays.

good point

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:46 pm

RT @darrenrovell: Wynn Las Vegas doing in-game wagering. Over/Under has dropped down 15 points to 57 1/2>>>Wish I was there to grab over!

Jesus, what a horrible business decision.

Exactly.

Man the NFL is stupid.

I still like it though, because of the stupid useless clownshoe Browns. But other than that it's a suckfest league.

Haha sCam Newton got shutdown.

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:50 pm

Casey Smash! (the Tebow Smash)
Then Newton puts up a wobblin' duck to the receiver.. look at the NFL accuracy!

Yeah but Cam Newton is way too good for the NFL.

Could you imagine how awesome it would be if Peyton Manning was STILL playing for The Vols?

Or if Tom Brady were playing for the Wolverines!

Actually... I think the only player who was actually too good for the NFL (ever) was Jim Brown.. in all seriousness

by **trsteve1** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:54 pm

yikes.. safety.. looks like an offensive game here!!!

wait.what? Safeties are Defensive plays? say who?

by **fairvis** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:54 pm

God,do I love a safety.

by **motherscratcher** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:55 pm

Safety?

What kind off asshole team gives up a safety in a bowl game?

Bunch of losers.

by **skatingtripods** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:56 pm

Auburn has 3:26 to get me a FG to win my first half bet. They better use the entire clock though.

by **Cerebral_DownTime** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:56 pm

Tom Brady is banned.
