Around SBN: Despite Relocation Drama, Coyotes Overcome Adversity

The top 100 games of the season ranked by Bill C. This is a form of madness, and we're not sure quite which one, but as long as Mike Gundy's involved the more of it, the better.

Holy hell is right.

Damn. List has plenty of MACtion and is therefore spot-on.

FSU-Florida runs up the middle on 4th and 1, loses 13 yards

/finishes with 92 yards.

LSU-Bama I

Made the list, somehow. If it were top 20, then I’d just assume he was trolling. But it’s middle of the pack, so I guess he actually thought it was a enjoyable

Oddly enough . . .

. . . I actually enjoyed that game live. You knew it was going to be a slobber-knocker and that the next score might win it, so it kept me engaged for the whole game. I’m a rural Midwesterner at heart and like defense games now and again. (Actually, for sheer tension, one of the best games I ever saw was the scoreless tie my high school played against our arch rivals in the season finale my senior year.) Obviously, Bama’s kicking was atrocious, but overall I didn’t think it was nearly as bad as most people apparently did.

All that said, I had no desire to see it again and didn’t watch the rematch on Monday night.

Procedural question for Fearless Leader (or anyone that knows the answer really)

Completely unrelated to this post, but I’m getting it in early before it gets buried.

Orson specified the spencer-at-sbnation email for FC articles. Is that the prefered email for commenter communiques rather than the harpumhharrumph one? Should I be sending stuff to the sbnation email instead?

Syracuse twice?

Those games both weren’t that amazing either.

When I saw two 'Cuse games made the list

I expected Toledo (and the XP bad call logic fail that every non-Orange fan makes regarding that game), but was figuring WVU for the other one, not Wake.

5 games on this list...all losses after blown double-digit leads.

Also, the game most of us pegged as probably being the best of the season

Was ranked as such. Now I’m all nostalgic for that Baylor-TCU thread. That was a real awesome time.

No. 1!!!

In hindsight, that loss isn’t nearly as bad. I was expected a 8-win Baylor team at-best, especially considering how they shut down RGIII the year before.

Speaking of Baylor...

Has anyone noticed that they are great at EVERTHING nowadays? Top ten FB team, won the Heisman, top 10 team in Mens BBall, the top team in Women’s BBall.

Shit Baylor, save some scraps for the rest of us.

Considering the situation Scott Drew walked into . . .

. . . he may be the best men’s basketball coach in the country right now.

That would be tempting, I'm sure . . .

. . . but the Drew family is a different breed of cat, and I could just as easily see him settling in for the rest of his career down there. After all, nobody ever lured Homer out of Valpo, and that guy could have taken over a much larger program.

Tell me about it.

We’ve got a top baseball team, but basketball is a joke here. I so want a good TCU basketball team. It’s sad how apathetic the students are about the program. It’s improving, but not quick enough.

If Baylor can become a basketball powerhouse, TCU certainly is able to.

Speakig of baseball, isn't Baylor traditionally good as well.

Just what, 3 years ago, they were the weakest of the weak of the BCS programs, now they are kicking everyone’s ass.

Unless they saved some RGIII DNA,

that football team isn’t going to sniff the rankings next year… or any year soon.

Regarding the "Sweet Caroline"

I don’t know who started it or why. I despise it. It’s embarrassing.

I am very afraid that it being done after the two OT games in 2011 have solidified it as “a thing.”

by Narrow Right on Jan 12, 2012 6:42 PM EST reply actions  

Red Sox fans started it...

they’ve been singing it at games for years. When they went on a post-season run, it caught on. Same way that “Don’t Stop Believing” came back, except that was the White Sox, the next year.
