2014 College Football General Thread

Good to see. I was about to go down to the quarry and make sure you were taking it OK.

It’s not that fsu defense didn’t show up, Oregon is that good. When it was 18 to 13 I told my wife this is where Oregon opens it up, halftime is usually close and then by 4th qtr they are up by 21 typically.

This is like deja vu all over again. I got a job in San Francisco out of college, and moved there in the summer of 1981, when it was easy to get season tickets for the Niners. Rough, tough Dallas was supposed to wipe the floor with our “finesse” team in the NFC Championship. Didn’t work out that way.

I guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree.

Hey, FSU’s defense accounted for a third of Mariota’s interceptions this season, so there’s that.

Well, that sucked. I’m a little drunk (okay, maybe more than a little) so I’ll wait for my full postmortem on that giant ball of fuck, but gotta hand it to Oregon. We got outplayed, outcoached, and outrefereed. Hopefully we can hire a new DC and a real OC before next season.

You mean, “Go Ducks!”

Wouldn’t that be only a quarter? (1 out of 4)

Ducks crushed with their dirty webbed feet! :smiley: Damn, that was pretty!

I see this attitude from fans all the time and it’s pretty annoying. Instead of acknowledging that the other performed very well, they try to claim that their own team just didn’t play like they normally do, typically because theyou were expecting to be in a better bowl or they travel led or they were looking forward to cupcakes after the game.

I’m not an Oregon fan or an fsu fan, as an outside observer I can tell you that Oregon offense was simply too much for fsu’s defense.

Wow, it’s eerie how you plucked these thoughts right out of my mind and typed it up. Go GREEN!

I know its early, but neither (the) OSU or those other guys look fast enough to handle Oregon They look like a bunch of fat slow bastards. I’d like to see their faces as they watch Rose Bowl footage.

I predict a Duck ass-kicking as we saw tonight, in the championship game. And I’m gonna love it.

Pac-, whatever, Motherfucker!

While not football related, I haven’t heard “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head?” this much since I was playing Fallout: New Vegas with the PipBoy radio on. And I think Cadillac is trying to make me hate David Bowie.

Wow.

Oregon players chant “no means no” after defeating Florida State.

They didn’t show a replay of before the pass. That was a QB handoff to the RB followed by a pitch to a WR, right?

Stay classy Oregon.

Definitely. Though also the turnovers have to be accounted for, I think. FSU did put up 500+ yards on offense after all (though Oregon put up 600+).

I think a fairer result would have seen the teams separated by 10 points, to be honest.

The turnovers are absolutely a factor in the point spread. The first strip was just a good defensive play as was the field goal block. But there were a few turnovers that were not due to Oregon actions.

But we are still left with the following:
FSu could not stop Oregon
Oregon shut down fsu run game completely until the game was basically over
FSu moved the ball with passing pretty well at times but Oregon got some key stops also

I said Baylor should go for 2 when they scored their last touchdown, but I really didn’t expect it to matter in the end.

It seems like the Tide was deeply troubled by the “no means no” chant, their response has been no offense, man.
