2013 Week 11 CFB Open Thread

This doesn't really answer your question, but Oregon has only been relevent on the college football landscape for 5 or 6 years, in as much as they could even think of sniffing a national championship. But in that time, they've managed to lose both bowl games that they played in where they weren't faced with another conference's second best team(tOSU and Auburn) and they typically [Mark May] the bed against either Stanford, USC and of all teams Cal.

Although it is funny to look way back at 2001, Bellotti's best season at Oregon, when Stanford knocked them out of the title game for the first time.

A couple years ago I worked at a radio station in Atlanta where David Pollack was an afternoon show host. I can confirm that basically what you see on TV is what you see off camera. He's a good family guy, great college player, and suffered a terrible injury, but yeah, that's accurate.

So you worked at 790. Is Steak Shapiro as big of a jerk off the air as on it?

I haven't been paying attention to the Heisman stuff, but, aren't Johnny Football's numbers better than last years?
They are slightly, I think. Winston is probably the best bet to hold him off unless somebody else emerges this month. Also have to wonder how much Johnny Paycheck's antics/personality will put off voters if it goes down to the wire...

Just IMO but ever since they elected to give the trophy to Cam Newton when everyone KNEW he was dirty, the heisman no longer means [Mark May] to me.
I pretty much feel the same way. The year Mark Ingram won it tainted it some for me too, as I felt Gerhart and/or Suh were more deserving. It doesn't seem to feel as important anymore...and seems to be a lot less talk/coverage this year. To me, anyway.
