LOL

Michigan State trailed 38-3 in the 3rd.

They won 41-38 over NW. WOW. Biggest comeback ever.

I wonder how many MSU fans were like... "wow we're getting slaughtered but at least they'll fire the coach for sure now"

Those wins are the worst. I'm still bitter the Bills came back against Carolina in 2001...the result was Mike Williams instead of Julias Peppers in April's draft [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

i hate notre dame. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[/ QUOTE ]

hate is such a strong word

I think most of the guys on the team are actually likeable (except Zmikowski or whoever's name I just butchered).
In addition, about half of the students/alums from there are good people in my eyes. The other half are a bit tainted by being born into privelege...oh well

I don't like the military-industrial complex built up around ND. They just happen to fit ESPN and every other network's sports marketing of making a hero/villain. They focus the attention like Yankees baseball and Duke basketball. This creates overexposure and overanalysis. I was upset to see so many authoritative books by and about Charlie Weis at the bookstore the other day, but that's not really his fault. I'm upset that he's the greatest thing since sliced bread since there are other coaches doing an excellent job and not getting the same white gloves treatment.

Hate is strong

m2tr,

Yet again you prove that your are a very reasonable sports fan outside of any discussion of Bears football. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: *** Official College Football Week 8 Thread ***
 

WOW, Tyler Palko, amazing play.

Come on Rutgers step up here and have a huge drive. Teel needs to step up NOW.

Re: *** Official College Football Week 8 Thread ***

really good post; your points remind me of why i grew up despising notre dame

Edited to add that this is also why it people with strong negative feelings towards nd don't really bother me

Re: *** Official College Football Week 8 Thread ***
 

How was Rutgers a 6 point underdog? I hope the bookmakers keep doubting them. This team is good. Rice over 200 yards for the game. Teel has to step up though.
