It's the College Football thread!

Horrible throw into triple coverage.

ACK!

[Imran Siddiqui]

WOW... what an ending. USC escapes and Fresno gave the Trojans a HELL of a scare.

[Tuberski]

Now if Fresno State doesn't go up in some polls like Notre Dame did, that would be a shame.

ACK!

Yes, yes it is.

All I have to say about the Big Game is this: Gonzalez stepped out of bounds.

#1 Texas
#2 USC
#3 Notre Dame
#4 LSU (+1)
#5 Penn State (+1)
#6 Ohio State (+1)
#7 Auburn (+1)
#8 Virginia Tech (+1)
#9 Oregon (+1)
#10 UCLA (*)

Dropped: Miami

Congratulations to Penn State on their Big Ten title.

I still don't buy West Virginia as a top 10 team. Maybe if they can run the table I'll consider it.

Um.. yeah. In college you can be pushed out of bounds and if you come back immediately, you can catch the ball.

That's the problem: He wasn't pushed. As far as I could see it, he ran the route out of bounds without any help from the defender, hence he shouldn't have been an eligible receiver.

But no matter. OSU probably would have gotten the field goal anyway - I just thought it needed to be said.

He was nudged out of bounds. That counts as a push.

The defender most definetly made contact, which caused the reciever to go out of bounds.

I think Fresno had a good showing... at least better than expected. I'm proud

WE ARE.......


PENN STATE!!

It hates me to do this, but I am moving Texas to #1. USC surprised me by allowing Fresno St. 40 some-odd points. Earlier in the season I believed that USC would kick Texas around, I don't believe that anymore....

Fresno State ain't no hodunk team... they'd probably whomp on Notre Dame... though I doubt they could beat any of your top 5

[DanS]

Fresno State ain't no podunk team. But they chose an obvious losing strategy for the USC game (a shootout). Because of this, I doubt they would beat Notre Dame.
