I thought the FSU game was pretty good despite the lost, Florida really hasnt played anybody yet.

It's Monday, but Lamar Miller is still running through OSU's soft defensive front.  Go Canes!

The Gators are going to get stronger. Us Gator Fans are on a week by week basis, we are not claiming nothing yet.
The race is not always to the swift,
Nor the battle to the strong,
Nor satisfaction to the wise,
Nor riches to the smart,
Nor grace to the learned.
Sooner or later bad luck hits us all.

Yep,, that is one of the most brutal Gator schedules I can remember,, and with a brand new coach.  Ughghgh,,, I get sick thinking about.  I will just make sure I have plenty of beer for each game and I should do fine.   :)

QuoteLSU and Alabama are not really dominant in my opinion. LSU sturggled against MISS ST, they have no offense whatsoever. Penn State showed that you can move the ball Against Alabama.  FSU brought Oklahoma back down to earth in my opinion.

The only dominating game this year against someone worth something was LSU dismantling the Oregon Ducks. Then they got brought down to earth by MISS ST.

LSU did struggle against Miss State  - MSU is not a push over team!  MSU going to make every team struggle.  But LSU knows how to pull them out.  The defense is outstanding and they have the depth on the roster to wear down their opponents - I see them in the top three at the end of the year.

The FSU/Oklahoma game was intense, even though FSU lost, they are definitely on the way back up.

Yeah,, I pretty much agree with Sigma.  LSU knows how to squeak them out,, even with help from the opponent (I submit to you one Tennessee/LSU game last year).  MSU is a good team I agree.  The SEC is just ass kicking this year.  We are literally going to beat the living bujeesus out of each other and its anyone's guess who will be left standing if anyone,, just so a Boise can waltz in and take the BCS.  LOL.

EJ Manuel has played better in some of the previous big games he played in. NOT AGAINST OKLAHOMA.
He never had a chance to use his legs, and he is a strong runner. Had the Noles gone to the option more
then they might have been able to win.

Kenny Shaw got creamed on what would have been a go-ahead touchdown.

I'm not really a big fan of SNL, but they nailed this skit. College Football Bowls are a mockery. This is so funny LOL. BTW nice glimpse of the new Wayne & Delores Weaver sign in the ring of honor.

Jax put a bid for the 2016 and 2017 College Football national title games.

Despite the considerable time from then and now, and what can happen with all of that time, still que the TU-esque negative ninnies talking about SB 39 etc, blah blah blah SMH...

Great opportunity and agree Jax has a good shot. Reading those TU comments always crack me up, they should print those instead of comics.

The comments would be funnier to me if they didn't reflect a more widespread negativity amongst far too many in this great city. Once the stadium renovations are complete, Jacksonville should have a really great shot at winning a game sometime in the next decade. The people in the comments tend to forget that, while the NCAA Championship game is and will be a huge event, it's still a significant step below the Super Bowl. You don't need five star, week-long accommodations for every fat-cat guest. Heck, many people will probably just make it a one night visit from Tallahassee, watch the Noles take the title, and then head back West across I-10 the next day :)

The Noles? 

That would be weird, indeed, having 2 ACC schools in the National Championship.

Clemson - FSU....  Hmmmmm.....
