Ain’t Skeered. And, coincidentally, that’s exactly how Mike Ford spells it.

We’re comin… to yo citay!!! College football on weekdays is kinda like whiskey on a random Thursday. Actually, its exactly like that.

Jim Leavitt is just like Mike Stoops but with, you know, some wins.

No Factor Five Five Factor? What a letdown. Wannstache might have lost the whole damn matchup by himself.

Surprised this game is still going off. I figured the earth would have opened up and swallowed the whole Bay area after the Rays played in and won a playoff game.

Bill Stull opens the game by being his own spinning fullback.

Is the Oregon St-Utah game not televised? That would actually be a good game…not that I don’t love the Leavitt….

Jamie-

It’s on VS., and the only reason I know is because I had my own little shit fit about ten minutes ago. Channel 55 on Comcast.

That’s Pitt football: two shitty plays, and then one long bomb on a double move for the TD.

(Mandatory generic Oregon State homerism comment)

I’m glad the game is on Versus. For a minute there I was worried no one would be able to find it.

Jim Leavitt does indeed scare the hell out of me…what is with the bullfrog voice?

by jamiedawg on Oct 2, 2008 9:16 PM EDT reply actions

That hoarse screaming semi-profane rant from Leavitt will be all over YouTube within the hour.

Sure we’re going down in flames right now, but that was a wonderful thing.

Did Lou Holtz just call a double down the line a “beautiful and loving thing”?

by JD on Oct 2, 2008 9:23 PM EDT reply actions

shit….he did, I really don’t need Holtz to creep out college football….

That failed fake punt by Pitt looked very A-11ish.

was there any question – the ’stache pulling defeat from the jaws of victory

Well if Mike Ford had Jerrel Powes IQ, he would be in the 5 back rotation at Alabama right now……
Lets see. Ingram, Grant, Coffee,Upchurch and Ford….sheesh that would be a stable of hosses….
Yoooo Grothe gots some moves….
Here come the Bulls ridin on Ford….Grothe has a man….TD Bulls…..

Wow, do they play defense Big East? This looks very high schoolish….

by Mr.Pelican Pants on Oct 2, 2008 10:45 PM EDT reply actions

Wooooo! South Florida is not going to the MNC game!

Go Wanstache!

Man, I do not want ANY Thursday games. Ever.

i wonder how much blood the people on the other end of leavitt’s headset’s ears bleed out per game?

You’re storming the field for beating an unranked Oregon State? Come on, Utah. Act like your #15.

Nick Saban wouldn’t have time for that shit.

seriously, utah rushing the field after beating an unranked opponent?

seriously?

The Champagne Room is killing these open threads. These thursdays bode well for TCU v. BYU, Holy War 2.0

OMG UTAH BEAT DA TEAM DAT BEAT NUMBA 1. CLRLY THEY ARE BEST. RUSH FIELD!!!1

Amazing. The Wannastache finally failed to grasp Defeat from the jaws of Victory.

Everytime I look at Jim Leavitt, his hair & visor looks like those crappy visor hats that have the fake salt & pepper hair. USF needs to match him against Usain Bolt in a 100M dash with a 40M lead.

Rushing the field was done because of the dramatics of the game.. not because we beat an “unranked” opponent. Get real people. Besides, this is a team that just knocked off USC. Big win for us if we are to keep our BCS hopes alive.

So, how about a nice cup of shut the fuck up, eh?
