BCS Title Game: Auburn -3.5 vs Oregon (ov/un 74.5) Jan 10, 2011

God I wish the Buckeyes were playing right now. Would love to see what our defense would do to these guys.

And, uh... 1st half Sugar Bowl offense... but for a whole game. Would be epic domination.

 

[Best Buckeye]

I ran a pick em bowl contest on the bowl games where each entry had to pick the winner and assign points for each game from 1-35 and the winner to be determined by who got the most points.
One guy had 28 points on the Nevada game which gave him the most points......except that he didn't pick a winner of the game.

Oregon is just terrible on defense. Blown coverages all over, can't stop the run, can't rush the passer...I guess when you play gimmicky football and get bailed out by your offense, you can afford to do that.

Yeah, I would've liked to see a playoff, too.

Although it's only a 1 possession game, you just get the feeling that Oregon has blown their wad.

They're just not executing on either side of the ball.

I missed most of the first half due to class, how the hell does Auburn not have 50 points?

 

[Bobby Hoying]

Maybe Auburn will take a page out of Bucky's playbook and find a way to lose with an unstoppable O-line and running game.

Sloppy play by their QB. By the way, he's 6'6" and 250 pounds.

Both teams look rather shitty.

 

[TheIronColonel]

Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but this is not terribly entertaining. Half of the time, the players on both teams don't appear to know the play or how to line up. Most of the big plays are coming on broken coverage or poor tackling. When did football become a game of "he who fucks up last loses"?

 

[shetuck]

Did he say "disdaining the fair catch"?

It's awful. The only reason this game is still on my TV is because it's the national championship. This is neither exciting nor good football.

Musberger just called the Big 10 crew an "all-star crew."

2nd and 18...

handoff up the middle

no faith in the QB

I have a feeling that Darron Thomas couldn't hit the ocean when pissing from a pier. I also have a feeling that Nick Fairley beats up orphans for no reason.
