RFL 2008, Week 15 Preview/Results -- Deadline 10/15 (Wednesday) at 12 pm EST

Kodos · 10-11-2008, 11:58 PM

Welcome to Week 15! Our slate:

Galaxy · 10-12-2008, 12:21 AM

I'll play our game tomorrow night.

Karlifornia · 10-12-2008, 01:24 AM

Damn you, Kodos...Indiana is projected for the Fiesta Bowl, while we (Clemson) are slated for the Chick-Fil-A bowl. While I wouldn't mind a crack at Georgia, I WANT IN THE BCS!

Kodos · 10-12-2008, 12:02 PM

Eaglesfan27 · 10-12-2008, 02:44 PM

Earlier today, we played our best defensive game of the year as we absolutely dominated the UCLA offense and won the game 37-0 despite a subpar day from Sanchez.

Kalifornia, you'll get in. The problem is you have two ACC teams already in (with higher-ranked Virginia Tech as the at-large team). Once they play the ACC championship game, that'll knock one team out and put you in.

Galaxy · 10-12-2008, 06:16 PM

We took down Syracuse with a 34-10 win. Finish the regular season with a winning record, 7-5, and a bowl invitation is waiting.

Looking back, we should have done better. A end zone drop at USC that would of won it for us on the final play of the game, our two games against Washington (first game that froze up in which we were driving late in the game to tie or win, and a close second game), our wacky game against upset Cinderella Stanford in which we came back late in the game to force it to OT, and threw an interception that I threw under pressure, trying to a make, that I never should have in OT, a West Virginia game that we just made some mistakes.

Thankfully, we'll be a much better team next year. We lose only a handful of seniors, and none of them are key players (I don't think many are starters); returning a two-deep depth chart that are currently sophomores and juniors. Throw in what is shaping up to be the second-best recruiting class in the nation loaded with top-flight talent and speed. The defense will be much deeper next year thanks to these incoming recruits. Plus, I'm thinking we'll par down the strength of schedule just a touch.

Bigsmooth · 10-13-2008, 10:24 AM

Well, the miracle run has ended at the hands of Cal. The game was real tight most of the way. With the game tied at 10-10 in the 4th (I believe)the momentum swung after Locker lost the ball on a sack and Cal recovered it and took it to the house. On the first play of our next possession, Hasty caught a ball over the middle, got popped, and fumbled. Of course Cal recovered it and it was all over but the cryin.

Tough loss, we had a thousand chances to put this game away. Anyhow, looks like we'll still win the Pac 10.

Wow , I did not see that coming. I guess that's it for a human vs human championship.

It would be cool if the game was able to select and send Big Ten/Pac 10 at-large teams to the Rose Bowl if the conference champions are in the title game (as long as they don't have an in-conference match up).

DeToxRox · 10-13-2008, 05:17 PM

I think we just need Pumpy and Kodos.

bignej · 10-13-2008, 05:38 PM

I saw that some of you are ready to advance but haven't used up all of your recruiting. Michigan and Washington come to mind because they had a few whole hours left. Just wondering if you guys knew that or not.

Yeah I left a few hours for the computer to use, namely because I was frustrated how my recruiting has been going so far.

I done it a few times. I don't want to over-recruit and have to cut players.

Galaxy · 10-13-2008, 06:42 PM

Kodos, Macro, and Pumpy just have to recruit.

I look at it the opposite and don't mind having to cut a few to get ones that fit best.

Bigsmooth · 10-13-2008, 08:15 PM

I'm good to go. Already called everybody from my board.

Kodos · 10-13-2008, 10:42 PM

Thanks, Bigsmooth.

Kodos · 10-14-2008, 12:34 AM

Okay, we just have MacroGuru left with some recruiting to do.

Damn dude...I wanted you to lose, but I feel terrible. I know how empty the feeling is when that clock runs down to zero. You had done it with a dearth of talent, as well. Locker, and not much else.

If there's any consolation, the future should be brighter, especially with your apparent stick skills.

As an aside, does anyone want to have Clemson visit for a game next year? I'm perfectly willing to face ANYONE for a home and home..or even just a road game. I just want to face more human players to tweak my gameplan!

You people take too damned long.

bignej · 10-14-2008, 05:30 PM

What do you mean "you people?"

DeToxRox · 10-15-2008, 11:52 AM

As I told Kodos on XBL, once Pumpy and Mac are good to go, we can just go to the bowl games because you cannot recruit during the Conference title games, and we have no one playing for a conference title.

Sun Tzu · 10-15-2008, 03:23 PM

score!

MacroGuru · 10-15-2008, 09:12 PM

I am done recruiting

Kodos · 10-15-2008, 09:14 PM

You're up again in Bowl Week 2, sir.

All alone.
