Gameday: Still following the best matchups! Yessir! Gameday’s laughable decision last year to go to the Nebraska/USC game in L.A.–where they started broadcasting at a weakly attended 6 a.m. session in the lonely parking lot of the Coliseum–is a bit more defensible as they go to the USC/NU game at Lincoln this Saturday. It really is the matchup of the two highest ranked teams in the nation with a #1 vs. a #14. Fuck ‘em anyway. Any and all objectivity espoused by Gameday is obviously compromised by the tethers of ABC/Disney/Globocorp/International Tetrahedron/Union Carbide Inc.–they just happened to luck out this week. Who needs them in Gainesville when we’ll be there. EDSBS: a news source you can count on! To show up! Mostly sober! And drunk! Awww, poor Kirby! Someone shut up his dad: Kyle Wright is the starter again at Miami after Kirby Freeman’s hopeless performance in the 51-13 fleshfeast defeat to Oklahoma. Randy Shannon is already showing admirable leadership by opting for a mediocre and conservative quarterback over a mediocre and volatile qb as the starter. It’s a bold commitment to .500, as opposed to a roller-coaster ride to…um…a .500 record. Aww, poor fuck lion! Marques Slocum, he of the legendary Facebook page and the pet fuck lion, was cited for misdemeanor alcohol possession in Ann Arbor. We would get our foam finger of moralizing, but this is a wholly appropriate response to Michigan’s 2007 football season. Wendell Barnhouse sees…a three-way logjam coming up in the BCS. ANARCHY!!!! It’s Tennesse Hate Week 3.0……and this is why the collective unconscious of the internet is a wonderful, wonderful thing. Whoever created this in the Gatorsports.com universe…thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

#50 SKLM – Isn’t Weiss still oinking out stomach staples, or was that all part of his legal strategy?

#42 does the Palmetto state brethren proud.
Something tells me, since he is a true USC fan, as in one who grew up with Richard Bell, Joe Morrison, Ellis, Sharpe, Mike Dingle (what happened to that guy?) Green, and, of course the triumvirate of Dickey Demasi, Monty Means, and Brandon Bennett…
he is dreading the Bulldogs from O’burg.
Actually, I would dread that game, if I were a visiting fan, if it was a road trip.

I like the needy look on Phil’s face and his ivory smooth legs. This is the most terrifying picture I’ve seen since that pomegranate picture you posted this spring.

#53 – Out of Conference:
Nah….I think Charlie Brown Weis was conned and never had an operation. He still looks like the “Before” picture in those “Before and After” pictures.
Or, maybe, they sucked out a lot of fat from his belly and re-injected it above his pecker, giving him that “Belt Abuser” or “Butt-in-the-Front” look that is the rave in the farm-land-ghettos of pre-Soviet Block countries. But, I digress…..

Coop (54) – That bullshit 1984 Navy game comes to mind with SC State this weekend and LSU next. What were we, 8-0 or something like that and a #4 ranking at the time (Google said #2, but I don’t believe it).

Coop says:
Oh, you were #2 in the nation that hallowed day, and whomever was #1 in the nation also lost.
You beat Georgia, PItt, FSU, Notre Dame, and Clemson, but lost at Navy, and then Oklahoma State in Jax.
Seriously, how did 10-1 South Carolina not get an invite to the Sugar or Orange Bowls to face the SEC or Big 8 champion?
I never understood that at all.
Conversely, Thurman Thomas says hello.
10-1 USC vs. 9-2 Oklahoma State was a pretty good matchup for the Gator Bowl.

Coop says:
Oh no, you were #2 in the nation when you lost to Navy. You were #2, and the #1 team in the nation that week also lost. I don’t remember who was #1 at the time, but they lost that Saturday as well.
You guys beat Georgia, Florida State, Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, and, yes, Clemson that season, but lost to friggin’ Navy, who stopped you from being #1 in the nation.
The other thing is, you went 10-1 and did not get the other bid to the Sugar to face the SEC champion or the Orange to face the Big 8 champion. That is insane.
Finally, BYU won the national title that season because they were the only undefeated team in January.
Had you guys beaten Navy…
Oh wait, you still got worked by Thurman Thomas and the ‘Pokes in the Gator Bowl.
10-1 USC vs. 9-2 Oklahoma State was a great matchup for the Gator Bowl that season.
Given that season, the Pitt loss a couple of years before, and the LSU loss to Tommy Hodson and Wendell Davis in ‘87, something tells me you guys are not a big fan of Jax.
Still, when I think of great USC upsets, I think of the ‘88 USC team that started something like 5-0, including a beating of Georgia, and went down to Atlanta to face a winless, or 1 win, Tech team.
Tech beat USC something like 47-0.
It is like clockwork, just keep waiting for the sky to fall, or LSU’s chainsaw dick.

ALL of those companies are owned by Cyberdyne.
Phil is actually the T400 Terminator but to make him more realistic they stuff him with 200lbs of doughnuts.
Be afraid ……very afraid.
