Tennessee Hate Week: Go. Good morning! Cam Newton up in this bitch! Aaaah, that's the way we like to start the week off: violence committed against a Tennessee football player in the ass-end of a blowout. We hate Tennessee. This is the theme for the week. If you need a handy summary......hey, there's one right over there! No, we didn't mention Cal/Maryland, mostly because by the time we got around to the Alphabetical the Pac-10's miserable day (outside of USC, natch) was a given, and everyone and their mother had watched Jahvid Best throw up delicious "green-flavored" Gatorade. Noble honesty all around. You'd have to dig into the darkest, most oblivious corners of Rivals.com to find the delirium of "we'd have won without those frickin' holding penalties;" the universal asskicking seemed to seep into Buckeye groundwater universally and with great intensity. Eleven Warriors earns points for honesty in the midst of immense pain. (That searing pain in your back is Clay Matthews. He's embedded; we recommend the jaws of life for the task.) Just taking a quick look at each position in comparison to the Trojans, including the coaches, and you see a list of mismatches. On the field, USC probably has the edge at QB, RB (sans Beanie), WR, OL, DL, LB, Safety, PK, KO, K, and Kick Return. OSU has the edge at Corner and Punter. But hey, Malcolm Jenkins did look good most of the night. There's sunshine in every rain storm AIIIGHHHGGGGGH (is struck by lightning and set on fire.) We just need to work on our penalty kicks. Auburn offensive coordinator Tony Franklin says there's work to do, especially on counter-attacking after goal shots and on set pieces like free kicks and corners; Bulldog Maroon and White wonders what the hell Woody McCorvey is doing, and finds this brilliant understatement from MSU starting qb Wesley Carroll: We were one play away all night, said Carroll, who was 10 for 25 for 78 yards and the pick. We had them where we wanted them. We just didnt make the play. Um, no. No, you did not. To an extreme unseen in our lifetime, actually. 3 to fucking 2. We'd petition the NCAA to have this game counted as a loss for both teams if we didn't think this wasn't what Tommy Tuberville's Platonic idea of an awesome victory. Harkonnen suit, ordered and ready. Charlie Weis will wait for knee surgery following the season's hottest "fattie go boom" internet video. Actual footage follows! In the meantime, there are...solutions to this transport problem. |

I hereby move that the phrase “Game of the Century” be retired from the English lexicon and that any usage of this phrase in reference to anything other than the 2008 Auburn-Mississippi State game be made punishable by a fine on the first offense, with possible jail time for subsequent offenses.
Do I hear a second?

Orson obviously hates kick returners. You know, I almost can’t muster up any more joy at Ohio State flopping in big games. Maybe I should rewatch that Buckeye Fan “music” video and remember why I hate them so much.

There is nothing I enjoy more than lurking on Ohio State boards following a buckeye loss and watching the place tear itself apart.
Within a matter of 25 minutes – 4 individuals were permabanned, 3 given two weeks temp ban and 7 others given very stern warnings following criticism of Tressel’s playcalling.
Buckeye planet.com, stand up a take a bow. I was very much entertained.

@ 1 -I’ll grudgingly second you on that.
Although I’m sure my attitude on AU/MSU is the same as yours concerning GA/USCe – It’s a win…an uglier than a bag of smashed assholes win, but a win nonetheless.

My sweet-natured and soft-spoken Southern wife noted that the AU-MSU game “looked like two monkeys fucking a football”.

It probably is too early to come oout of the bunker, because if it isn’t the initial blast, it is the fallout that will kill you. I think Woody Hayes said, “There is nothing that cleanses the soul like getting your ass kicked”. Well, our souls have been cleansed.
Positives from the game are few, but I have some. First, you will now see the dawning of the Terrelle Pryor era. I believe we will see less and less of Todd Boeckman as the year goes on. Secondly, we get USC in Columbus next year, so there is a sense of urgency to get better and not let this happen again. Third, there is still a conference championship to win and Michigan to beat.

Crabapple:
I commend you on being a man and coming around the Monday after. Good form.
But I do have one question, and I’m not trying to be a jerk, but shouldn’t there have been a “sense of urgency” two years ago?

Crabapple: “Third, there is still a conference championship to win.”
Uh, in the SEC, we ACTUALLY have a conference championship game. If you mean a our record sucks less than yours championship, then I stand corrected.

If you are refferring to after UF, I believe they chalked it up to coming in overconfident and fat from the post-Heisman banquet circuit. Last year was actually a rebuilding year. The only reason we were in NOLA was because of the failure of others. This was the first one with all of the pieces in place to make a run. Now that weaknesses have been exposed (again), changes will be made to change the outcome the next time. Fortunately, there will be a next time.

We have just received a cable from the heart of Dixie and Jim Crow in Starkville, Mississippi. FLASH: The Tigers of Auburn University have just trounced the Bulldogs of Mississippi’s Land Grand College, of a score of 3 to 2. BOTH sides did attempt the FORWARD PASS, but to no avail. Coaches are still speculating its use. We now return to our current broadcast of “The Shadow”, brought to you by Ivory Soap.

Even 2 days later, I can’t explain why I watched the AU-MSU game not once but twice. But – it was mesmerizing in the same manner that a car accident is. You know that it is horrible – that you are watching someone else’s disaster – but you can’t turn away.
by hobeg8r on Sep 15, 2008 11:28 AM EDT reply actions
You better pray to the pantheon of Northern Florida rockers (38 special, Skynyrd, Petty, Blackfoot) that your goy-ish mohel qb doesn’t fall asunder in the near future, causing you and yours to suffer the fates of Cam Newton attempting the forward pass.

Did Miss St pull the goalie in the last minute or so to try and tie the game?
Also, don’t tell anyone, but just between you and me, I think your Charlie Weis video is fake.

As an ardent MSU fan & graduate, listening to Orson Welles as The Shadow would have been more entertaining and suspenseful. Plus, it only lasts 30 minutes and always has a happy ending.
Honestly, I can’t think of more than 10 years out of the last 40 that we have had an offense worth sh**, and Woody “Mr Imagination” McCorvey sure ain’t the cure.

Just one comment regarding tOSU, and then there won’t be any reason to talk about them until the Rose Bowl. All I heard about last year was how they were one year “ahead of schedule”. The words “ahead of schedule” are now officially retired from the college football lexicon.

by Yellow Tail Swine on Sep 15, 2008 12:59 PM EDT reply actions
Maybe Weis knew what he was doing, after all. Despite having one of the most inept offenses in history last season, the core of that young team, now sophomores, are making use of their experience. To wit, every single one of Notre Dame’s 35 glorious points scored against Michigan were scored by young men who were part of ND’s much heralded and then much reviled freshman class last season.

Auburn – MSU
3 – 2
If these were 2 Big Ten teams, it would be “Big Ten sucks”, but since this is the SEC, it’s “great defense”.

AU vs. MSU 2008 aka “Game Redacted” or least the score should read AU 3 MSU (score redacted)
As an Auburn fan, let me say Uhm….yea….we…..umh…..won?

Good point, admittedly. However, there will be 10-12 players between the two defenses playing on Sundays pretty soon, and I don’t know what two Beeg Teneleven skools other than Woody & Bo have ever been able to make that remark recently.
If AUbarn puts 21+ pts on LSD this weekend, Sly will stand vindicated.

#37: Norm Chow’s O scored fewer points than MSU did this weekend.
I swear, it was a full moon.
3-2 is just the most awesome score ever in football. It will likely not be repeated in my lifetime, and such, it is a solitarily most awesome score from football that it must be celebrated.
And, if AU blows the doors off of LSU, I’ll be vindicated in my belief that Tuberville was saving all his coupons for this week, known on the Plains as Double Coupon Third-Saturday

Did you read all of the comments on this thread prior to posting? Although they are two good defenses, every post on here has been how shitty the teams played. “Like retards fucking a doorknob” or “monkeys fucking a football” come to mind.
However, just to be fair to you and give you what you want to hear, the Big 10 does, in fact, suck ass.

Did anyone else think that Weiss’ knee injury looked like something my Auburn Tigers would inflict. We will punish LSU this weekend. Yall should take the over if its at 6 or less. One net point is all the spread eagle needs. Time to roll toomer’s corner.

No, it wasn’t great defense. Auburn’s looked great, but they were playing MSU’s offense. MSU’s looked pretty good, but they were playing AU’s offense.
Three to two. THREE TO FUCKING TWO.
I still can’t believe it.

WarCardinals,
Its pretty clear that Auburn is intentionally playing poor so as to sneak up on LSU. Its called “sand bagging” and its been our plan all year.
Also Crabapple Buck,
Ohio State would be a 35 point under dog to Vandy. What is yalls record against the SEC? or I hate to say it, against the Bammers?
