College Football 09/Oh 10

I-O-W-A Goooooo Hawks!

Stfu smith!!!

Iowa is the only team that scored over like 14 points on psu which btw has the #1 defense in the country.

I hope OSU destroys Iowa so we can go ahead and count the Big 10 out of the National Championship race.

Ok just check this out and let the numbers do the talking!

Number of opponents defeated that currently have winning records:
1. Iowa 6
2. Cincinnati 4
TCU 4
Texas 4
5. Oregon 3
Alabama 3
7. Boise State 2
Florida 2

Total won-lost records (and winning %) of defeated opponents:
1. Iowa 44-31 .586
2. Florida 36-29 .554
3. Texas 35-30 .538
4. Oregon 29-28 .508
5. TCU 34-33 .507
6. Bama 32-35 .478
7. Cincinnati 30-36 .454
8. Boise State 27-37 .421

Total won-lost records of opponents defeated in their home stadiums (i.e. road wins)
1. Iowa 23-12 .657
2. Texas 15-9 .625
3. Florida 15-10 .600
4. Bama 14-10 .583
5. TCU 19-14 .575

Number of defeated opponents ranked in current BCS Top 25:
1. Iowa 3 (Penn State, Arizona, Wisconsin)
Oregon 3 (USC, Utah, California)
3. Texas (Okla, OKST)
4. Boise State 1 (Oregon)
5. Cincinnati 1 (South Florida)
Florida (LSU)
Bama (VT)
8. TCU 0

Won-lost records of remaining teams left on schedule:
1. Bama 22-12 .647
2. Iowa 17-10 .629
3. Oregon 19-12 .612
4. Cincinnnati 19-13 .593
5. Texas 18-14 .563
6. Boise State 20-22 .476
7. TCU 15-17 .468
8. Florida 14-20 .292

If Florida and Bama go undefeated until they play each other, the winner will go to play Texas. Nobody in the Big 12 can beat them. <- it kills me to say that. There's only one way that Iowa ends up in the National Championship game; if one of the SEC teams lose and beat the other in the SEC championship. I don't see that happening.

Iowa really shouldn't have won Saturday. They had a video game-esque fourth quarter to beat Indiana. Stanzi was hitting the B button and turbo like crazy!

your prediction is horribly unlikely.  whichever team wins the SEC championship WILL go to the national championship, so Iowa will only get in if they somehow end up ahead of Texas in the polls.  Oregon and PSU in the rose bowl is a decent prediction though.  Iowa shouldn't have won it's last 3 games, so it's hard to say they'll go undefeated.  the only way they have a chance is if they do go undefeated.

1) I'm a Wisconsin fan, Iowa should have lost.
2) EXACTLY.  They won in the last second against Michigan State.  99% of college teams lose in those circumstances.
3)They had a miraculous 4th quarter and played horrible for the first 3 quarters.


I just can't put Iowa in the national championship.  Not until they have consistent play.

a lot of bad shit would would need to happen in order for iowa to make it to the NC. On the same note,  same could be said for oregon.

Wow. Oregon is flat out there. Its just about over if we dont score here real quick.

Goddammit.  It had to be Stanford.

Iowa, Oregon, and Notre Dame go down.

man! Stanford played amazing. I think they only dropped one pass all game. We were deflated out there and dug ourselves in a hole.

Were still half a game ahead of arizona in the pac 10 so  we cant lose anymore. Everyone who wants a chance has to win out.

My lamec0cks are done for the year.  Start the season out so well and go down hill so fast.  FL and Clemson left for the season, the only good thing is we are bowl eigible.

Tennessee is getting better every week.

Glad i got tickets to the civil war game.  I pretty much turned down bomb ass USC tix for Civil war tix and was kickin myself for it.  But now im so pumped.  

WAR DUCKS!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo

Originally posted by kimchijajonshim Great day of football in the Pac-10.  Cal beat Stanford (best Big Game in ages) and the Oregon/Arizona game was pretty epic, albeit VERY sloppy in the first half. The Civil War (Oregon State v. Oregon) is going to be huge.  Decides who wins the Pac-10.  I'm rooting for Oregon, since I think they have a much better chance of crushing Ohio State.  Oregon State has a shot too, but I'd be more comfortable with Oregon. Bold prediction: Pac-10 goes no worse than 5-1 in Bowl games, with a realistic shot at 6-0.  The Pac-10 is the deepest it's been in years.  Time to get some respect.

I just wanted to quote this so you can't change it later

Did not expect Cal to beat Stanford after Stanford rolled through USC and the Ducks. Especially with Best out. Excited for the Civil War game and hopefully a Ducks vs. Buckeyes Rose Bowl. Ah my two favorite teams (ducking the tomatoes)...

Hahaha I do like the uniforms! Well, I like this years (oooh feathers) and the crazy neon / hi-lighter helmet from previous years. I HATED the diamond plated reflector B$ from the previous years blech.

Originally posted by GeckosGoMoo Alright, I'm gonna call the Big 12 Championship right now............ Cornhuskers vs Longhorns.

Congrats Scarecro! That was a great game except for the numerous times the Ducks put the ball on the ground. Haha I loved how 79 was crawling towards that one fumble. I was screaming for the longest time since that play took so long...

Cal's regular season is over.  This is the weirdest Cal season I've seen since I became a fan.  Can't say it's nearly as gut-wrenching as 2007, but it's much more puzzling.  That team simply lacked cohesiveness and leadership.  This team has looked looked terrible, they've looked great, they've looked gutty and game, and they've laid down after getting smacked in a couple games.  Don't know what to make of them and I don't know what to expect next year.

It'll be interesting to see whether Cal can leapfrog USC in the Pac-10 bowl situations (they're tied for fifth).  Cal will probably bring a bigger, louder crowd since they're local.  But they played in the game last year and USC will probably bring in better ratings.

^ I totally agree with everything you said except about the kicker. It seemed to me it just took a bad bounce, and he tried to pin them in a corner too much. I mean, it landed in bounds at like the ten yard line and bounced out.

And the penalty, it's hard to say if that was bad or not. Who knows if texas would have ran that in for a touch down if he didn't horse collar him. There was nobody in front of the texas player, and if it wasn't for that horse collar, he might have scored a touch down. At the same time though, he should have used a more legal tackling method, or at least do something to slow him down long enough for another husker to take him down.


Gawd, I can't get enough of that black shirt defense though. It takes a lot to stop that Texas offense, and by golly, Nebraska did it. I can't remember what the final sack total was, but I remember it being at eight in the beginning of the third quarter.

Man i so though Clemson was going to pull it out.
