OPEN THREAD, PART TWO: BREATH, TAKEN AWAY
Hi. You know who I am. This thumb’s for you, Colt McCoy, because you’re a champion who takes my breath away and turns in slow motion away from onrushing defenders bent on crushing you. You took the highway to the danger zone but took the exit toward Victory Lane, and for that I’m buzzing your tower and oiling myself up for a one-on-one volleyball game. You’re invited.
No more playing with the boys, Colt: just you and me, a Colt and a Maverick out in the field doing what animals do. I’m bringing this thumb. Let’s role play: this time, you be Sam Bradford, and I’ll be Brian Orakpo and Sergio Kindle.
This is your open thread for the afternoon. We don’t judge you, whatever you’d like to do with or to Colt McCoy and the rest of the magnificent Texas Longhorns, who played the finest game of the year thus far against the Oklahoma Sooners. Boom. Motherfucker.

I would laugh my ass off if Tech lost to G-W with a QB from Ninety-Six HS…

The Huskers just pulled a fake FG on Texas Tech, and this is actually a respectable ball game.

After his Tebow quote this wekk, Ricky Jean didn’t make the trip tp Gainesville. Isn’t that like saying “my dad can beat up your dad”?

Haha…I gotta admit that I lol’d at that Michael Phelps commercial. He was looking so smug at the beginning of it too, just made it even better.

Bogey intercepted! Vandy Croomed on a risky-mortgage third down pass completed but almost pick-six’d by Vandy.
Miss St, you just did an incredibly brave thing. What you should have done was land your plane! You don’t own that plane, the tax payers do!

I guess Vanderbilt decided to revert back to being Vandy…I am actually kind of relieved…that was too weird.

Georgia Tech’s 3rd and 4th string QB’s are just disastrous. This is painful to listen to.

Bandobras says:
There’s an old guy that works in my office that’s a Miss State alum. I had to explain to him what being Croomed meant. He dies of laughter everytime I bring it up now…he’s been saying my prediction of at least 1 upset each year for Miss State is not going to happen this year and I told him to wait.
Should have bet on that.

That guy sitting on the ground behind Fulmer really weirded me out

BadgerMan says:
Some people did bet on that. Some people also almost spilled their Old Milwaukee when Miss St threw that pass at the end of the game inches away from being picked and returned by Vandy.

Jesus Fucking Christ. North Carolina is playing with the 3rd-string QB, no TE, a nominal running game and one fucking WR, but ND can’t stop the passing game. Shit. Double Nicks! Nobody else has done a goddamn thing all day.

Auburn-Arkansas is every single bit as good as advertised–even the sound on the ‘cast is f’d up….which complements the offense nicely.

Can anyone seriously tell me that Texas Tech is one of the ten best teams in college football?
October 11th, 2008 at 5:05 pm

Jerkwheat says:
Indeed, Bob.
Hogs are moving the ball well, they just have an end zone allergy. Although that was a nifty 4th down call by Petrino.

BEEs just pulled it out, 10-7. But Garner-Webb almost wiped their asses on Tech’s carpet.

The GT game isn’t over yet, GW has the ball on GT’s 38 with less than 30 seconds in the game, long pass that led to them getting to the 38 is under review

Asked about the 4th and 4, Mike Leach, “Oh, it’s like…it’s like….it’s like Sharon Stone said after shooting a movie, ‘No guts, no glory.’”
I love Captain Leach.

GT just blocked a Gardner Webb FG as time expired that would have tied the game at 10 and forced OT.
Yes, you read that correctly.

BadgerMan says:
I can’t believe I found myself rooting against the BEES, but I did want to view the end of that game (G-W missed a last second FG to force OT).

And Floyd runs the wrong route, leading to a likely game-ending INT. God fucking dammit all to motherfucking hell.
