Bowl Games-Football of course!!
 

College Football is drawing down to the short straw!

What/Who are going to be the Big Bowl match ups?

Auburn burned U. Tn. O U is killing U. Co.

Still waiting to see if My Gorillas beat NDS today! If did, off to Florence, Al. Wonder if TEKE1 Valdosta will be playing in the big game!

WVU is going to the Gator Bowl:)

See the signature for details... :D

If you hadn't already heard Tom, its Valdosta vs the Gorillas in the finals.

Iowa is going to beat LSU in the Capital One Bowl.

Tom, I'm glad that if anything is going to unite a old fashioned vet like you and a young rebel like me, it's "God, Country, Football".

There is a chance that Troy State University/Troy University may get an invite to one of the bowl games...we are waiting with anticipation.


One of our players was named Sun Belt Defensive Player of the year! GO DEMARCUS!!!

He and 3 others players made the SunBelt All Conference Team.

GOOOO TROJANSS!!

¡ole! Looks like Pitt's going to a fiesta this year!

Looks like Baylor got flushed down the Toilet Bowl again this year. :(

Woohoo, Ags pickin cotton baby!!!


And interestingly, of our 4 losses, 3 were to teams that are playing in BCS bowls. The other, of course, was Baylor :D

Gig 'em Ags, beat the hell outta the real UT.

KS 361

BWHAHAHAHA

I knew you'd get a kick out of that.

So, continue to give me crap about that game, because next year the college football world will be righted and we will resume our yearly bearly thrashings :D

Even a blind hog finds an acorn every once in awhile ;) Kinda like how a Baylor person found a thread on bowl games.

You do know that we are talkin about Football right? not something you do with china ;)

KS 361

you hurt my heart Kitso....................:(

mine and Mel's Miami Redhawks will be playing Iowa State in the Independence Bowl!

ROSE BOWL!! ROSE BOWL!! TEXAS IS GOING TO THE ROSE BOWL!!

Should be a good game!:)

Auburn is Sugar Bowl bound!!

Not the bowl we were hoping for, but the BCS isn't flawless, and it shows :rolleyes:

WARRRRRRR EAGLE!!!!!

Sugar Bowl :D

I couldnt be happier for my hokies.. ACC Champs..

.. now I just have to convince my boss to let me have off for those days.. :)

Alright!

OH who are they playing?

Hook em Horns!

Florida and Miami in the peach bowl in ATL.

Just out of pure curiosity, what is a Hokie?

See ya'll in January! Should be a good game!

this is one of those questions you just learn the answer to bc you are asked so many times, and so many times people arent correct.. :)

well.. the official definition of a hokie: is a loyal virginia tech fan..

but the word came from a cheer way back when the school changed its name.. and it just kind of stuck..

the mascot was the gobblers.. but then evolved into the hokie bird.. so basically its just a made up name..

Troy goes Bowling!!
 

Woo hoo! Troy University is going to the Silicon Valley Bowl...a small bowl, but a bowl nonetheless.

Airfare is going to kill us....:rolleyes:



GOOO TROJANSSSS!!

purdue's going to the sun bowl...again, third time in four years. they'll play arizona state.
utep's going to the houston bowl. yeah for them. they'll play colorado. for utep, it's a feat. they had only won two games last year.

Mike Price to ND!

We play Michigan! I'm looking forward to a great game. I'm just out of sorts that I can't GO to it!

Texas Tech is going to the Holiday Bowl vs. Cal!

Awesome! Go Red Raiders.......

I'm kind of nervous at the Big XII's bowl schedule. It seems the teams are spread fairly thin:

OU v. USC -- neither favored heavily
Tx v. Michigan -- I'm going to heavily favor Texas
TxTech v. Cal -- HEAVILY favoring Cal here
OSU v. tOSU -- have to give the edge to tOSU with the way they're doing at this point in the season.
A&M v. Tennessee -- I give a slight edge to A&M
Iowa State v. Miami (OH) -- I'm going to give a slight edge to Miami. I just don't think ISU is that good.
Colorado v. UTEP -- Going to heavily favor Colorado to come out and not suck this time.

7 bowl games though.. that's not bad at all :D

wish it was Ohio State instead of Michigan. :(

Hawai`i meets the University of Alabama-Birmingham on Christmas Eve at the Hawai`i Bowl. I love game day Christmas mornings!

So, seriously, what are people down there saying about Timmy Chang's place in the NFL Draft? I realize he has several passing records, which is great, but he also has the career record for INTs. Also remember that June Jones (former Charger coach, hahaha) does Run & Shoot, so that's one big reason he has so many passing yards.

I hope Timmy goes the same route as Dat Nguyen and turns some heads, but he seems like an Islander version of Andre Ware, without the Heisman and no chance of being the #1 overall draft pick.

Honestly Stan, they talk, but I don't pay attention. :p I think he will get drafted, maybe not in the early rounds, but he'll eventually go somewhere. The INT record may fall, but I don't see anyone taking that passing record away from him. He's at 16,667 right now, and you can probably add a good 300 or 400 more yards on Christmas Day.

June Jones is GOD in Hawaii.

There is no comparison between Dat Nguyen and Timmy Chang. Dat was the first Vietnamese player in the NFL, there have been hawaiians in the NFL before Chang.

Dat's parent's were Vietnamese who escaped on a boat during the fall of Saigon. He started at middle linebacker in probably the toughest conference in the country for 4 years. He set the A&M career tackles record. Pretty good for playing at "Linebacker U".

He also won the Maxwell DPOY award along with the Chuck Bednarik award. He won a Big XII championship in 1998.

Timmy Chang is the next Ty Detmer.

KS 361

As far I remember, Dallas took him LATE, almost as a sympathy pick, and he happened to work out. That's what I mean in comparison to Chang. I know he's not going to get the same pub as the other QBs coming out this yr, but he may just get swiped by some NFL team willing to take a roster spot chance with him and actually do well in the pros.

While it's great for Hawaii, the University of Akron's football team feels they got shafted because of the Rainbow Warriors's win over Michigan State Late Saturday night, which is What I just find out Reading yesterday's newspaper.


it would be nice if both Hawaii and Akron play in the same bowl game. I know it would be a great game to watch.

The 3rd round is not LATE and he certainly wasn't a sympathy pick. He may have been undersized, but there are plenty of success stories of undersized linebackers succeeding in the NFL. Mike Singletary is a prime example. Not saying Dat has reached Singletary's level of production, but he wasn't a stretch.

The draft is LITTERED with quarterbacks that performed in pass-happy offenses in college(run and shoot, spread O's) etc that were wasted picks in the NFL.

Ryan Leaf, Kliff Kingsbury, Ty Detmer, Andre Ware, David Klingler, Josh Heupel, etc.

KS 361

Well, at least we agree on something....except you think he's the next Ty Detmer and I think he's the next Andre Ware.
