The Official LR College Bowl Season Thread!

Yep and the talk around here is "boy they have heart", "great game for a young team", blah, blah, blah, blah. I almost feel bad hating a team so much. The bonus is just got another dri-fit t-shirt; man their fans are easy.
Man! VTech just got screwed by the old inadvertent whistle. They're playing bad enough as it is. Don't need the refs to pile on.
ACC is the greatest conference ever. I've been cheering for the Cabernet and Orange since halftime. We got this.
Haha wow. That was some EPIC FSU type 2nd half magic right there!
Now I can focus on my main issue: that Colorado has no business being in the top ten.
I'd add the one SEC win is against Miami (Ohio) by one point in the St. Petersburg Bowl.

man that va tech/arky game last night. I watched some of the first half from across the restaurant. didn't bother turning it on when I got home. Even bigger comeback than what we had vs ol miss.
Yessir buddy. The Amplitude from Chipley was so fun to watch. He used other's speed against them with that smoovah shake and bake style. A good receiver and and pretty decent blocker, I was bummed he never really was featured with San Francisco. It must have been a Monday Night game were he looked really good for them that I vaguely remember.
Check out the tv preview of tonight's game. Mine says, "This bowl matchup could get ugly for the FSU OLine who have struggled to protect QB Deondre Francois all season, and now must face a talented Michigan defense that has recorded 44 sacks". Wth ESPiN?
Watched that game on the "big screen" in the lobby of Cash Hall with a bunch of folks. The next day or so we went out to the airport when the team came in. Shadetree came off the plane wearing an indian headdress.
Sounds like the Michigan SID wrote the preview. Funny how they fail to mention that FSU leads the country in sacks.
I'm not overly optimistic about the game, but let's make it sound like we shouldn't even be there. You'd think a Disney operation would be more down the middle but the hate is just too apparent.
Plus side, I feel a McFadden Pick 6 is in the offering tonight.
I'm not going to say the Michigan defense is not all they're being made out to be but they gained their lofty ranking by playing just two offenses ranked in the top 50 ( 21, 44 ) in total offense and six ranked 87th or above (87, 88 94, 107, 120, 128). Seems like almost every week FSU was playing the best defense they've face all year and each time the offense did well.
