The deafening silence.
Is that for the opening moments of the games? The cupcakes on the schedule? The total suck displayed by Arkansas in the first 2 minutes?
I’m just waking up, man… Florida hasn’t kicked off quite yet on 360, which is the only place to see the game, pretty much.
Well, good morning to you, Rex.
Arkansas an Miss St are tied at 7 five minutes into the game. At this pace they’ll both hit 50.
The teams appear to be awake already
14 points in the first five minutes
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Richardson has scored, which helps Alabama but not Mark Ingram
7-0 Tide
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
I haven't been able
to watch the last two weekends so I’m feeling out of it. Mallet threw his 5th int of the season in the first series, but made up for it with the throw to Adams.
I don't know how Ryan Mallett doesn't shoot Greg Childs
How many perfect passes has he dropped this season?
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
And the Arkansas defense has decided to show up for this game Auburn-style
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
It's a split SEC Network broadcast with State-Arkansas
It’s on 360 as well
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Keep running into the kicker in the rule book
A guy whose momentum carries him into the kicker should not get a 15-yard penalty. You’ll basically make teams avoid any attempt to block the punt.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Switched to the MD - Fla St game,
Wich has FlSt up by 7. On the fashion front. FlaST is sporting black helmets. Not a good choice.
Alabama 14, Chattanooga 0 -- 3:04 1Q
McElroy to Julio Jones for 44 yards, Mark Ingram for 25 yards, TD
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Pressure Mallet
and destroy their momentum. A simple truth that auburn and others didn’t get the memo on.
Make it 21-0 Zip Bama
Short field after an interception and they cashed it in quick. 54 seconds left 1st quarter.
End 1st
So Bama’s on track to score 84 points in this one. Sounds about right.
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
From Athens
Reserve offensive lineman Jonathan Owens on Thursday became the third player arrested since Oct. 13 on a traffic-related charge.
The redshirt freshman from Blountsville, Ala., was arrested by university police at East Carlton Street and River Road for driving a motorcycle without a license.
Wow. Should Georgia just start providing drivers to players, or would that be an impermissible benefit?
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
GT must supply all of the state of Georgia's police officers.

Of course
because clearly the police forced him onto that motorcycle without a license, then waited for him to drive by.
It’s just not possible that he got on the motorcycle himself and then rode it in a way that caused the campus police to pull him over. It must be a conspiracy.
Legarrette Blountsville?
That might explain it…

Don't look now
but Michigan is outplaying Ohio State. The Buckeyes lead on a Forcier endzone fumble, 7 – 3, but UM is decidedly better thus far.
Yeah, but Pryor's run there was pretty weak
He knocks the defender backwards and then steps out of bounds backwards. You moved the guy, now take the extra yard.

Lots of Snap handling probs for Miss St
Even on the good plays. Is there a different center starting center this week?
Why does State not just run Anthony Dixon out of the wildcat on every play
Have Tyson Lee come in from time to time for a change of pace. Am I crazy?
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Dixon's shaming up to have a McCluster-like game.
Who keeps on observing that the hogs always give someone a career day in each game?

Mallett basically throws it from one side of the field to the other

One end of the field to the other, I guess I should say

My best friend (and UF student) knows about as much about sports
as I do about 17th century European pottery. That is, nothing. He was complaining about how much money the athletic department gets until I told him that the athletic department donates millions of their own donations to the general scholarship fund, which finances almost the entirety of his precious education. He’s now a big, if incredibly naive and casual, UF football fan.
It’s amazing just how many places exist and thrive here simply because of the football program.

Make that point
to the protesting students in California. They don’t get that their state U system is catching up to the in-state tuition costs across the country.
Telling Californians to stop protesting
is like telling the wind to stop blowing. Florida also has absurdly cheap education, which is inevitably going to skyrocket in the near future. I need to graduate ASAP.

Dave Neal just put Ellis Johnson back in charge of the Mississippi State defense
Still hasn’t recognized his error
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Mississippi State gets an interception
Promptly gets a nice pass play and then goes sack, fumble by Lee.
And then Neal infuriates me by saying, “That’s just a football play right there.” Of course it’s a football play. It’s a play in a football game. What the (*&^)( else would it be???

Officials made a nice grounding call in UF-FIU. The announcers kept saying ‘the QB got hit as he was throwing’, but they had it backwards – the QB threw because he was about to be hit… the blitzer was coming in free, and the QB heaved it up just in time, but he couldn’t see anything because the defender was right in his face, and the ball didn’t land anywhere near an eligible receiver. Text-book.
T. Prior just was classy as hell.
Makes a nice 11yd run, forced out of bounds, runs smack into a cameraman. As he walks away, he takes the time to see if the guy is alright. I wish for more of that behavior.
Andre Ware makes the rare good point
How is Anthony Dixon not on the Doak Walker finalist list?
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Dan Mullen goes with a running QB
who combines with Dixon for a 96 yard ALL RUSHING DRIVE to make it 14-21.
Miss St’s going to be an interesting team the next few years – I’m just as glad we get them at home in 2010, and then don’t see them for a while.
Arkansas 21, Mississippi State 14 -- 9:22 3Q

Maryland 26 - FSU 22
4 minutes left. (chuckle). So, on Tebow’s last home game, he gets to officially deny FSU a bowl game (HA!). Oh, that’s right FSU fans (snicker), it’s all Bobby’s fault. No other problems with the program, nope. HAHAHAH! You’re still a superpowAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I CAN’T EVEN FINISH! ROFLMAO

Maryland decides to run a prevent defense
EJ runs all day. Maryland still calls prevent.
Perhaps it’s even sadder for FSU to be in a dogfight with a team that doesn’t understand basic football concepts.

Unbelievable. FSU is going to win.
That was the worst defensive playcalling I’ve ever seen. Honestly, 3 man rush, EJ waits a second, takes off for 30 yards. Rinse, repeat. What a moron Friedgen is.

Inauspicious beginning for Ole Miss
Lateral goes out of bounds
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Jefferson to Vaughn for TD
Vaughn is notably not a WR for LSU
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
Called back for the block in the back and the dive into the endzone
I don’t agree that the dive was unsportsmanlike conduct
Team Speed Kills. All SEC, all the time.
You know, it’s nice – in a world returning to its orbit kind of way – to see SEC teams really beat the absolute stuffing out of their weenies. There have been far too many actual contests this year in guarantee games… bad for our rep as the biggest, baddest bullies on the block.
Also, Florida’s offence next year is going to be Spurrier-esque – none of this dive, option keeper, Tebow-smash stuff, baby, we’re going all downfield all the time! Throw the ball like it’s 1996! Yeehaw!
Brantley’s three drives were basically next year’s offence, should be be the same play-calling and certainly the same personnel except the running backs (Scott’s maybe fourth string depending on how you count ‘em – the bruisers Moody and Gillislee were out or limited, and Demps and Rainey were shut down early in the third.) Plus of course Debose, getting a crack at being the next Percy. It will be a lot fun watching it – shouldn’t be really similar to anything Meyer has run at Florida so far.
McCluster is a great RB
We’ll be watching him play in the NFL, that is for sure……..

Yeah… it does help when there are fans of the teams involved on the thread. Otherwise, especially late in the season when you’re not likely to be ‘scouting’ future opponents, or thinking about the divisional races, it’s easy to have the game on in the background and not really care too much.
i care...
…mostly because we are getting to the point where the end of the season is in view. and that means the long long off-season is much to near at hand. so i’m trying to enjoy as much college football as possible.

What’s funny is that my team plays LSU next week and I’m still not on fire for this game. I’d say Arkansas is playing for quite a bit next week. And I should be interested! It has entertaining twists and turns – awesome playmakers – close score. What’s the matter with me?!
I’ll take dinner prep and one of my favorite movies, Mr & Mrs Smith, as my excuse.

Well, you have my excuses – not our division, we’ve played one and won’t play the other, big non-con rivalry game and SEC championship coming up… as kleph says, the season in running down, so it’s good to savour the games that are left, but this one has minimal interest other than that. Not even much rooting interest – LSU is kind of a rival, technically, but I don’t think many Florida fans think of them that way, and it’d be better for us if they won anyhow.
UConn just got a TD called back
They scored the go ahead touchdown against ND, but it was called back in a very dubious call.
It's only three points, thankfully.

Nevermind another holding.

Gotta give it to ND – they do provide some close finishes. Lost to Michigan by four, beat Mich St by three, beat Purdue by three, beat Washington in OT, lost to USC by seven, beat BC by four, lost to Navy by two and Pitt by five.. this makes nine games so far for them decided by a single score. Throw in the Weis and Clausen schadenfreude, and you’ve got some fine entertainment.
They reviewed it??
That was clearly a TD, but at least they didn’t overturn it. Let’s see if ND can answer back

Now back to the lacklusterish Ole Miss LSU game
If I’m ND, I drive a pick-up truck full of cash up to Brian Kelly’s door, and tell him that I never once thought of anyone but him, honest. (He won’t believe me, but you’ve gotta say it.)
Sadly, I agree with you.
I really don’t want Brian Kelly there (he was always my first choice after Fulmer got fired); can’t they just lure Mike Stoops or something?

I know Fllorida Fans are going to hate this but..
Urban Meyer might just go. Florida is losing a lot on both sides of the ball, that if he has to start to put together a new team he might as well do it at ND.
I think there are several reasons why he wouldn’t go, but there are also going to be “millions” of reasons for him to go.
I hear both of those reasons a lot, both in the media and from non-Florida fans, but – not to be impolite – they bear little resemblance to the actual situation. Even with graduations and some likely early entries, Florida will have a great deal of talent coming back, and quite possibly a top-5 class coming in – far from a rebuilding situation, especially given the likely state of the Eastern Division in 2010. And Florida’s athletic program is routinely one of the five richest in the country (which ND’s is not), and it doesn’t have a gargantuan buyout hanging over it.
I agree that Florida will probably still be one of the better teams in the SEC next year, I’m just pretty much saying that having that many new starters would only add to any incli nation Meyer might have to leaving. He still has an amazing stable of talent in Florida, and actually I’m one of those people that wants him to stay at Florida, I think the better the rest of the SEC is the better is for my team too. Pus it would be real nice to beat a 2 (or possibly more) championship winning coach.
The SEC is positively loaded with great coaches right now, for sure, and there are none who are really dreadful.
I think ND will ask, and he’ll politely decline – I’d be surprised if any coach at a school with routine national title hopes would leave for ND these days, unless they really wanted to get out of town for some reason. That’s one reason Kelly’s a good bet for them… far more has to break right for a school like Cincy to get in the picture than for Bama, Florida, Texas, USC etc.
Not a bad idea, really.
He more than deserves a chance somewhere, and really, it’s Notre Dame’s defense that’s been the issue.

I was actually thinking that earlier
But I really doubt he would leave right now even if he did get an offer. He has something really great going on here, and hopefully if we can get some good defensive depth, then we would be one of if not the favorites for the West next season. Plus he would have to rebuild ND and start over from scratch, and take another hit to his persona. If he goes to a BCS bowl next year, then I think we would have to worry about him leaving.
I totally agree. From all reports he’s really found a home in Fayetteville. I like his style. I like his attitude and I’m enamored of his offense. Now we just need a defense.

Maybe – they shouldn’t, given equal records, but a potentially stronger finish and the higher profile could do it. Certainly Penn St is still firmly in the at-large picture, though they could use some upsets.
Clemson won as well, so the ACC championship game is set.
Given head to head, Iowa would get the nod. Don’t think that it will be the criteria for bowl committee.
Also, Clemson won divison before game because of BC loss. Tech needs them to have as much percieved momentum as possible. I hope the Dawgs can deflate that ballon next week though.

Ah – hadn’t noticed that BC had already played.
If Boise St gets an at-large (with the others going to TCU and Florida/Bama), the choice for that last spot will be very interesting indeed. Assuming there’s no curve-ball – the worst for the at-large hopefuls would be a previously undefeated Texas losing in the Big-12 championship game
