2024 Random Games thread

[TOR 5520]

I had a really astute and somewhat scathing comment about BC/VaTech but it got swallowed by the 503.  Anyway, we got good games to watch on a Thursday night, moderately gruntled.

[campcrunk 2413]

Would've been nice if we could have gotten one game as interesting last night's UTEP game, but at least BC and GSU made it pretty interesting for a minute there

UTEP snapping their suck streak has been kind of a big deal locally.   That was a pretty fun game.

Hell, I'm nine hours away and I thought it was cool as hell. I can only imagine what it's like in El Paso

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

Well, I encountered the 503-code last night but looks like all is good this morning.  Glad the Herd won, although the score isn't quite indicative of the game itself. First game on the slate tonight FSU 1-5 vs Duke 5-1.  BWHAHA!  Other than that, there might some decent competition tonight.  Peace out.

I'm hoping the FSU v Duke game is interesting. I think it could be. Or, it could turn out like my old high school's game is going to turn out tonight, a serious beating.

This is perhaps the worst helmet design of all time

What the heck happened to Okie State? They had things rolling pretty well a few years back. 

[Mittens 8211]

They are doing exactly what they do - have a bum year mixed in every 2 or 3, win double digits once or twice, bum year, rinse, repeat.

One or two of these will probably get their own thread.

FSU at Duke (-2.5), 6:00 on ESPN2

Oregon (-30) at Purdue, 7:00 on Fox.

Ok St at BYU (-9), 9:15 on ESPN

Fresno St (-2.5) at Nevada, 9:30 on CBSSN

Okie lite and blue cougars should be good.  For reasons unknown to me I've always thought highly of Fresno St.  I guess, I like their attitude.  Anybody, anytime and anywhere.  

Let's get it on!  

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

New starter at QB for fsu tonight.  Norvell grasping at straws.  Azure diablos get the kickoff and here we go!

Probably because it played USC tough that one time in 2005. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

Just go for it, you're 1-5. 

[TOR 5520]

I vote FSU/Duke for Malik for a thread.  

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

Duke defense shows some backbone and holds fsu to 3.  I'm good with it.

PS.. I've been on the sauce since about 4.  So, if my spelling isn't right or I'm ramblin' well.....

I am going with FSU winning

Purdue covering the points and the game being closer than it should be

BYU

Fresno

and Gundy is suffering from a little bit of what Mack had to deal with.....they have had a lot of turnover in the coordinators and he has run out of people that he knows and can trust and that want to come work for him so he is taking some reaches and the guys he is bringing in are not total ass chewers like Boom was and Gundy has a hard time with the "nice guy" persona or going back and forth depending on the situation like Nick was able to do (of course Nick had rings to punch you in the face with too and Mack had one too)

Mack was able to do the total hands off nice guy thing (too hands off eventually) while Gundy cannot let go like that and that makes it hard on the coordinators to set the tone on their side of the ball and chew asses consistently

It's a bold strategy Cotton.   I'd swap Okie Lite for the W over BYU.  Duke over FSU.  Let's see what happens.

[TOR 5520]

Malik's hair bigger than ever.  Good for him.

damn Buffalo Trace.

[TOR 5520]

Oof.  Don't run that play again, Dookies.

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

Brock Glenn played the whole Clemson game too. 

[TOR 5520]

Glenn looks a little shifty but not very quick.  Might want to stop running him as he's the backup.  

Laser throw on 3rd down for the incomplete.  PUNT.

[ButtFumble 5163]

I see the issue now with DJU......he is wearing the bad luck tiki idol from The Brady Bunch......until he returns that back to where it came from he is fucked

[TOR 5520]

They are letting FSU db's get away with some violence out there.

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

^^that right arm was in there pretty tight on the 2nd down play.

Looked like a reach-around, hope he is buying him dinner.

FAKE PUNT OH SHIT!  FSU is hanging it out there.

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

We don't see enough fake punts at any level. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

The fake worked like a champ.  Duke got caught swimming nekkid and the tide went out.  FSU got nothing lose at this point in the season.

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

Fucking Ks, man. 

Actually the holder gets most of the blame. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

He's lucky if no broken fingers. 

[TOR 5520]

Looked he was trying not to kick the holder in the hand.  

C'mon Duke, can't count to 11?

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

Holder furked it up.  Whoops.

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

Pick-6 for Devils. 

[TOR 5520]

That could be ballgame, FSU can't move the ball.

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

Jumped the route and made a haus call.  

[TOR 5520]

[shadow_operative2.0 15905]

And then Glenn fumbles it away, sheesh. 

[TOR 5520]

FUMBUUUUUUULLL!  MORE NERDS!

[Bevo&Pevo 5110]

Lady Luck on the bench with the Devils.

[ButtFumble 5163]

FSU fucking sucks

and when did anyone expect the D to be keeping Duke in this game

It's a big ol' goofy world.

[ButtFumble 5163]

my prediction is that FSU will not find a coach they want and Jimbo will step up to "save his legacy" and offer them some of that aggy cash to let him coach for 3 years and if they meet a certain goal he gets the cash back plus $3 million per year

[TOR 5520]

Malik with the Uncle Rico throwing motion FIRST DOWN!
