On Notice!
Just gonna hit the highlights this week:
Auburn, Texas, and Cal – You all lost, ending any chance of playing for the title.
FSU – Losing by 30 at home to anyone is embarassing.
Offense in the SEC – When the Fightin’ McFaddens of Arkansas are the closest thing you have to a high-powered offense, there’s something wrong.
Maryland – All of your wins have come by 6 or less – at some point (against either BC or Wake), your luck will run out.
Notre Dame – Going for the Commander-in-Chief trophy this weekend against Army. Notre Dame, why do you hate America?
Duke – You suck so bad, you probably can’t beat hurt Reggie either.
On Notice!
West Virginia University – 6 turnovers in an ugly loss to Louisville? You’re fast, but you have to play better than that to be #3.
Clemson University – Lost 2 straight to teams that GT has beaten – after they owned GT. More proof that the Transitive Property of Football is not true.
University of Iowa – You lost to North-freakin’-Western. Not just perennially overrated, now just plain bad.
University[sic] of Georgia – You lost to Kentucky! Wooooooo!
Wake Forest University – WF and GT are on a collision course for the ACC Championship Game – aka John Swofford’s Nightmare. Just a little pre-emptive taunting to psyche them out π
Duke University – Now that basketball has started, no one in Durham has to watch this putrid team.
Guy Who Broke JoePa’s Leg – In the Wisconsin-Penn State game, JoePa got hit when someone went flying onto the sideline. JoePa stayed around for a quarter before being carted off with a broken tibia. Hardcore for an old dude.
University of North Carolina – Repeat what I said about Duke, but replace Durham with Chapel Hill. You and Duke are next up on the GT hit parade.
On Notice!
- Michigan State University – Well, you’ve now gone from being the worst finishing team in land to the worst starting team in the land. You were down 46-7 before 2 meaningless TDs in the 4th to make it kind of respectable.
- University of Southern California – Oops. Well, USC fell, but not to one of the teams that people were expecting. They hadn’t been playing well lately, but this time they couldn’t quite recover. (Missed a 2-pt conversion that would’ve tied it at the end)
- University of Nebraska – After looking respectable against Texas, you fell to Oklahoma State this week, making the Big 12 North race a lot more interesting.
- University of Miami – Two in a row! GT now has the easy road to the ACC Championship Game.
- Clemson University – After reaming GT, you go and lose to VT, making the ACC Atlantic race wide open. On the other hand, I’m glad you lost, because I didn’t want GT to play you again for the Championship.
- Ohio University – Despite sucking, you’re now bowl eligible. Wooo.
- University of Alabama-Birmingham – (Honorable mention to UConn, Rutgers, Idaho, and Hawaii) – The upcoming UAB-SMU game (and the Idaho-Hawaii game) is being played this Tuesday night, which makes absolutely no sense. Rutgers and UConn play on Sunday night, which is odd since neither of these teams are in the NFL. Stick to Thursday and Saturday during the regular season, ok?
- North Carolina State University – Chuck Amato has apparently decided that he is not, in fact, the man. You’re next.
On Notice!
Northwestern University – You gave up 38 unanswered to the Fightin’ John L Smiths, the largest comeback in I-A history, and stealing my best running gag in the process.
Georgia Institute of Technology – Sigh. Front 7 was completely dominated on defense. Offense couldn’t do anything at all. I’m done with this now.UCLA – You played defense for 59 minutes, and then you let Brady and Samardzjafjajzjia own you for 80 yards in 35 seconds. WTG.
John Bunting – You’ve been told that you will not return next season. Not surprising, since your team sucks.
University of Oregon – I didn’t see this game at all, or know anything about it. But you lost to Wazzu, who’s outside of the Top 25.
The ACC – Grow some balls and give the leg stomping mofo more than a 1 game suspension. Seriously.
Coaches’ Poll – You have USC at #2 still, even though they kinda suck. Whatever. Pretty much mailing it in at this point.
University of Miami – Thug U rolls into the ATL to determine the Coastal Division champion. A GT win gives them a defacto 2 game lead, and with games against NC State, UNC, and Duke remaining, essentially clinches the division. A GT loss essentially means the inverse. Fortunately, Miami isn’t nearly as good as Clemson, so GT should win.
