34 seconds left. Another shitty Breeding punt to put the Pirates at midfield. They have all their damned timeouts left.
Fuck it. We don't deserve to win.

15 seconds left. 2 TOs left for ECU. 1st and 10 for Pirates on Hogs 37.
9 seconds left after a 7 yard scramble by ECU QB and of course he gets out of bounds.

22 yard line after our run defense sucks it hardcore again. 3 seconds left and ECU takes a timeout.

another 39 yard attempt. And there's the silly icing move.

I'm not either. Overall, some games that were boring in the 1st half but have had exciting finishes today. |

TT beats MSU in a rather entertaining game. It will be interesting to see if they keep the coach, or not.

It hasn't been a great few days. Stanford & Texas Tech covered, West Virginia and Cincinnati didn't. Both "extra" bets (STAN +300 and TT-MSU under 60.5) lost. Call it 3-3 overall. I'm not quitting my day job.
Lets take a look at the remaining games... BSU is up to +7.5 and CMU is down to -3. No reason to change my opinion on those games. P.S. On officiating, my view is you get what you pay for. Does anyone know how much they pay college officials? Does it vary by conference? How about the pros? P.P.S. Texas Tech could do worse than promote their interim coach. He'd be cheap and unlikely to cause problems. |

Yeah, I meant the interm one. Kind of interseting that he made a likely unintended swipe at Leach by saying if a player comes to TT he'll make sure to treat them well.

Some Googling didn't turn up anything definitive I could find but most of the answers I came across were consistent in claiming that it definitely varied by conference and that the range seemed to be between $400 and $950 per game per official (presumably with a range for the different officials within a game as well, since that's how high schools do it that would make sense to me).

Don't think that was unintended. Since getting the "interim" position he has been throwing Leach under the bus in some of his statements and officially been lobbying for the position himself. Kind of a Cable vs Kiffin thing from my understanding.

Not including expenses, Big East officials get 1200 a game, and ACC ones get around 1500 a game.

There is also going to be a physical requirement for officials in the coming year(s). So those who were complaining about the older refs not being able to keep up might have seen their last days. There are more issues that I have seen but I'm not sure ya'll really want to hear them. |

Hey guys - Using a board game called Momentum Football, I thought I'd see how things might turn out if there was a 16 team tournament to determine the National Champion. The winner was surprising... You can check out the result on my blog: RANdom Gamer

Even NFL officials are not full-time. Not sure what they make per game, but they do have other jobs.

Thanks. I wonder if that has gone up in recent years, because I remember plenty of stories about the refs day jobs include Ed Hochiuli.

When I was 14, my mom took me to Denver to see Ga Tech play in the Final Four. I'm happy to be able to return the favor with an Orange Bowl trip this year. We meet in Fort Lauderdale tomorrow. Go Jackets!

Nice to see the Big Ten holding their own in bowl games this year. Surprising, since this was definitely a down year in an overall down cycle for the conference. I was really hoping MSU could pull out the win over Texas Tech.It was looking good there for a while...

If Iowa wins, it has to be considered a success for the Big Ten. Like you said Michigan State held their own missing over 10 starters and Northwestern came extremely close to winning. Wisconsin beat Miami and OSU and Penn State won when they were underdogs. |

Boise State's defense looking better than I thought on the first drive. Also, how was that not a personal foul against TCU. The whistle blew repeated times, the rusher was unabated, and he gets away with hitting the QB.
