College Football 2013 Season

[Boris Godunov]

I didn't mean that in so far as your expectations for the program, only in regards to Kelly himself. Just seems interesting that NOW is when he is choosing to get out of Dodge, instead of any other time in the past few seasons.

Maybe. There have been conflicting reports, but there are some indications he may very well remain at Oregon. The Browns have given up on him, the Bills hired someone else, so the only team left courting him appears to be the Eagles. So we'll see!

But I've not seen any indication anyone within the Oregon program is particularly concerned about the NCAA sanctions being particularly heavy, either. I don't think it would really be the dominant factor in Kelly's decision.

ESPN just reported: Chip Kelly staying at Oregon.

Did he get a raise and/or extension a la O'Brien at PSU?

...with monetary help from billionaire booster Terrence Pegula, Penn State managed to retain O’Brien’s services. According to David Jones of The Patriot News, O’Brien will forgo the chance to jump to the NFL after he was given two concessions: forthcoming “structural and personnel changes in the Penn State athletic department” and a significant pay raise.

According to Jones, Pegula has donated $1.3 million to be added to O’Brien’s salary in 2013. That gift takes his total pay to $3.6 million, making O’Brien among the highest-paid coaches in college football.

Pegula also owns the Buffalo Sabres and built PSU's spiffy new hockey arena.

Everything is going according to the script.

Alabama is skull-****ing Notre Dame to the extent that the hilariously awful officiating benefiting the Tide is completely redundant.

[-Jrabbit]

An apt description. The Tide can pretty much name the final score.
As long as it ends in a zero.

Notre Dame losing just never gets old for me.

Hey, isn't this like 3 out of the last 4 BCS titles for Saban? Hate the douche, but that's pretty damned impressive.

[Guynemer]

Oversigning has its benefits.

[Boris Godunov]

ND needs the mercy rule.

And Alabama should just be in its own division from now on.

The Irish haven't been beaten this badly since Cromwell.

Well, that was a boring NC game, yet again. Auburn v. Oregon was the only one that's been really competitive over the past 4 years. Hopefully the playoffs will help eliminate these snoozers.

Ouch.

[Boris Godunov]

Hey, ND set a record: Most BCS bowl appearances without a win.

YAY!

Don't know if this should go here or the NFL thread:
