Yes they have come back many times. This is a bit different.
I like Fowler a lot. I've hung out with him a bunch of times but he had a brutal first half.
His line about their comebacks was pretty funny, it only took two plays to turn it over.

Oh definitely different, but it's not really good broadcasting to say "game over" in the 3rdQ.
Chris Fowler is my man crush. Seems like a smart, funny, cool dude.

Oregon is still throwing the ball etc. I feel like Diaco's style would have shown the I formation after the first touchdown lead

I like diaco, and I think he will turn things around, but with a completely different grind it out style.
 
I like that Kirk is offended that the defense quit. They turned it over 5 times on offense in 17 minutes.
 
I haven't had this much fun watching a blow out since the Georgia Tech national championship game.

I hope BD will get UConn to a major bowl next year....
I like him and I'm rooting him success.

Fowler and Herbstreit are waxing poetic about Winston's legacy. Are you kidding me?

I can't wait to root against whoever drafts that scumbag.

I'd still take Winston over Manziel. I think Winston will at least show up and be prepared as a pro. Even if he isn't an adorable character.

1. Tampa - Mariota
2. Jacksonville - has Bortles already
3. Tennessee - Winston??

As a Pats fan, I hope he goes to the Jets. I already hate them enough but losing Rex will be tough on the hate meter. Replacing him with Winston would just feel right.
 
Winston is one of the ESPN annouted greats. Glad to him get a good beat down. Kid is trouble and won't last in the NFL IMHO.

I'm so glad my team has a QB (Giants fan) and isn't in need of one. This crop of QB's is so unimpressive. I don't see Mariota panning out in the NFL and I can't stand Winston almost as much as I hate Johnny Football. My wife's a Bears fan and I just laugh because Cutler is awful but he might be worth holding on to due to a lack of anything better next year (besides the fact that his contract makes him untradeable)

That's a hot take...
 
I'm glad to see FSU finally come up against someone that wasn't going to let up and allow them to steal the game. Even if they didn't turn it over I'm pretty sure they still could not have kept up with Oregon. It's really amazing how Oregon has perfected this scheme of theirs and it is a lot of fun to watch, minus all the crazy uniform combinations of course.

Which part?

A lot of criminals make it big in the NFL. Drunks and party boys not so much these days.

It was a joke based on the fact that we've seen Manziel and he is the worst NFL quarterback I've ever seen.

Edit: I was on vacation last summer and remember texting some friends during a Browns pre-season game. It was striking how obvious it was he didn't belong on the field. He wouldn't have survived a single cut if he wasn't a high draft pick.

I'm a Giants fan also, but I'd love to see Mariota in Big Blue holding a clipboard for a couple of years until Eli calls it quits. (a la Aaron Rodgers behind Brett Favre). I think that Mariota can be just as dynamic as Russell Wilson. It won't happen though because Mariota won't last that long in the NFL Draft.
 
Forte said:
So much fun to watch. Hopefully with a dual threat qb we become more dynamic. Grind it out football may lead to wins here and there but damn it's boring.
Expand ...

Agreed, except for the "leads to wins here" part. No coincidence . . . boring, impotent offense and struggling to win go hand in hand. Plus lackluster offenses are not appealing to the kind of recruit UConn will need in van loads.

6-6 running oregon's offense is 100 times better than 6-6 running Edsall offense. I really hope that Diaco understands that it does matter how you win if he wants the fans back. Bend don't break defense with three yards and a cloud of dust offense is not going to cut it.

Love this post.

Would have been nice for any of those teams to have held on, because then TCU may have made it in, and they are clearly in the conversation for best team.

1 Alabama
8. Michigan State

4. Ohio State
5. Baylor

3. Florida State
6. TCU

2. Oregon
7. Mississippi State

That should have been it.

Or replace Michigan State with Boise State (highest rated G5 school).

It would have been a hell of a tournament, and no one could reasonably claim they were the best team except the winner of this tournament.

Try telling that to Rutgers Al.

Please no! The grinding it out style era is over. What you are suggesting will make it impossible to recruit the kind of playmakers needed to transform this program and put fans back in the seats. College Football is all about high scoring offenses. Accept it or better yet, embrace it.
 
If you cant recruit the speed, you do the next best thing. Recruit size and moderate speed, control the football and beat the hell out of the other team. That can get you to the top 25 with a few good skill players. It wont let you beat the best because they have both size and speed. Once you are in the conversation as a credible program, though, then you can recruit up.

I don't care what the offense looks like, as long as the are winning games....that makes an offense fun.

Just keep him away from the Eagles.
 
Mariota reminds me -physically- of RG3. He has that slight, sprinters build. That would worry me that he will have the same sort of injury problems especially if he uses his legs in the NFL.

As a passer he is light years ahead of RG3. And he has played in a much more complex offense in college.

But that thoroughbred body would scare me a bit.
