The North and the South are basically decided in the PAC-12.
UCLA has told USC to not stab the center logo. A lot of Trojans are upset about this. Most UCLA fans find it amusing...haha |

Sorry, Bug...all their troubles aside, I think USC is going to expose UCLA.

I have some confidence in this one. Obviously, the offense needs to be opened up, or we can forget about it. Jamison not playing would be a monster blow of course. |

It could go that way, but USC has been far from consistent defensively and Hundley is a dynamic player. I see a shootout here and if UCLA is in it near the end they have a shot. |

That's what I think will happen. It's going to be a toss up. Last team with the ball and enough time to do something with it wins. UCLA has too many weapons for a thin USC defense to cover all game, especially if the Bruins do some more of the Oregon-esque up tempo stuff that they have been doing. But UCLA's secondary is just gawd awful, and Marquise Lee is scary is hell. There is just no way they're stopping Woods and Lee and also keeping tabs on all those tight ends. Barkley is going to have a field day, even if UCLA's front seven puts him on his ass a bunch.

I'm hoping IU can rebound against PSU this weekend.
And that OSU trashes Wisconsin.

Syracuse vs. Mizzou should be an interesting game this weekend. Syracuse is coming off a big win last week. Mizzou has won two of their last three with the only loss being a close game at Florida. Chance for Mizzou to become bowl eligible this week and then head to A&M for their finale in College Station where they've won three straight games

De facto ACC Coastal Division title game tomorrow in Atlanta between Duke and Ga Tech. Miami can also tie for (and win the tie-breaker) for the conference title, but almost everyone expects them to self impose post-season sanctions once they become bowl eligible.

This weekend is so uninteresting I'm working on homework and maybe going to one of the comic stores to play board games.

Sounds like every one of my weekends for the past 2 1/2 months. Moving to a new town, not knowing anybody, not being the best at going from friendly to friends, and school being harder than ever equals a pretty shitty social life. I need to fix this problem. |

Looking at this week's schedule, there are some massive turds (including most of the upper echelon of the SEC). When the playoffs start in a few years, do you think schedules will get stronger or weaker? I don't see the incentive to play anyone worth a damn out of conference once 4 teams are in the playoff. Win your conference and don't lose out of conference.

Isn't that what they said when the BCS started? (That's rhetorical, it is what they said when the BCS started)

Maybe I'm not old enough to remember how schedules really were before the BCS and whatever the thing was that preceded it (Bowl Alliance or whatever it was), but to me it does seem like schedules have gotten worse. But maybe I'm wrong. Last edited by bob : 11-16-2012 at 04:41 PM. |

Icing the kicker on a 60 yard field goal to end the first half? Seriously? I can't see how you can ice the kicker on a kick that he is already expected to miss. He is already going into that kick with no pressure because he is "supposed" to miss it.

The schedule still needs to be strong enough to help bump you over other undefeated teams. I think Saban has done a great job of picking name teams to go against that still are at least a tier below 'Bama.

Michigan has a RB/WR/QB that wears #16 & has no shoe laces.
Good thing too, as they are down a starting RB... (Look only if you're not eating)

Ahh, the offense that could've been for Michigan this year. I am glad that Denard is at least healthy to line up some at RB. It's gonna suck for Ohio St. to try and gameplan for Michigan for next week. |

"We so dont plan for anything."- Iowa We are just a bad team. Terrible QB. Defense has been exposed. How many times can you allow a WR to be wide open? Apparently many times. And did we stop Michigan once on 3rd down? Im happy the basketball team is playing. EDIT: I dont want to lay this all on the players. Our coaching staff is worse then the product on the field. Im hoping for some changes next season. Last edited by tarcone : 11-17-2012 at 02:50 PM. |

Just how enforceable is that $50M exit fee, anyway? I wonder if something like that could wind up in the courts at some point.

Way to go, Bruins! Good win for UCLA today. Not only beat their rivals, but also clinch their spot in the Pac 12 title game.
