TCU held up nicely - not enough of a statement to make any kind of claim on #1 but have a strong case for #2.

Back in the day, the "Froggies" were taken pretty lightly - but with one defeat in two years, they have have to be considered on of the top programs in the country.

what's the over/under on the number of uniform combinations that will be displayed by Oregon in the title game?

I'm mixed.
I hate cheaters, and I wouldn't be unhappy if Cam lost.
Part of me wants to root for the SEC team.

yah, i know. I'm gonna ignore that - if the NCAA can, who am i to argue, they never ask my opinion anyhow.

Besides, if Nike can effective sponsor the entire Oregon athletic department, is there any real difference?

I still wanna know the over/under on OR uni combos used during the game.
RoamAround

Again, can someone point me to where Cam cheated?
chili36

no we can't chili.

it's all based on suspician and circumstantial crap.

fair? prolly not.

but we all know that where there's smoke, there's usually a fire.
RoamAround
8:32:23 AM
1/10/11

Roam - I agree. The question is did he start the fire or was someone else trying to smoke him out? If I had to guess, I would say he does not have clean hands. As a fan, I'm glad he is playing - just as I was glad the Ohio State guys were playing.

I haven't read much about the academic cheating allegations, but on the money scandal - its hard to believe he didn't know what his father and others were up to in asking for money. NCAA football, at least at the top is big business and some of the problem comes from trying to pretend it is an amateur sport at the expense of the athletes while all that money flies around. I suspect, under the table money is rampant - still rules are rules.

See, there is the line.

If we start to chop on folks because we think they cheat, we probably won't have a season next year.

yeah, for sure that Cam is NOT the only player with money in the parent's bank accounts.
RoamAround
9:15:15 AM
1/10/11

Chilli still believes Cam's father didn't ask for $180K or so to play for MSU.

When he didn't get it from MSU, Cam went to AU.
Stovie
9:19:12 AM
1/10/11

To be honest, Bond and a couple of others have some credibility issues with me on that Stovie.

I am pretty sure a discussion was had about money, but the MSU guys didn't overly impress me with their story.

I seriously doubt that enough details were ever released to the press for any of us to make realistic determinations.

Yeah, we all know he cheated...but that's only relevant the week that they play Arkansas so let's drop it

My son is at the game and says the shoes look "awesome" in person.

BTW he might be on the sideline for the 2nd half. Great contacts.......

I was pulling for the neon socks, but they hadn't seen a defense like Auburn's. Great game.

....and AU doesn't even have one of the premier defenses in our league. That was a heck of a game.

Fairley's gonna get his butt kicked in the NFL first time he punches some vetern center in the pile.

I think over a month without playing had more to do with the lack of offence than the "great" defenses of each team. When a team is given that much time to game plan against another, the defense will win out.

Upgraded & crocs. Two words that don't seem to belong together.

Go ahead & go camo. You know you want to.
Might make them hard to find when drinking around the campfire though.

Ol' Cam is going to leave Auburn to take the future NCAA punishment all by itself.

His father is laughing all the way to the bank.
Stovie

well DUH. he'd be a complete moron to NOT go to the draft with Luck staying in school.

Fairley will be playing for Carolina next year, not Auburn.

I hope whatever pro team buys him gives him a $180K+ bonus. LOL

Cam has the talent to be the next Vince Young.

Does Andrew Luck know he's taken the Wonderlic test and failed?
