4-team parlay

Ive got USC (-21), Minnesota (-1), Marshall (+28.5) and Pitt straight up in a 4 team parlay. What do people think?

Nice little 5 dollar bet - pays out 15-1.

I think USC is going to struggle more than people think and will try to hold off the wolves to keep people healthy and I think OSU is going to try and murder Marshall--"unleashing" the new and improved Terrelle Pryor.

ehh i just thought 21 was a pretty low line for a power like USC and Tressell doesnt really score more than he has to.  

Besides theyve got MIami next week, theyll likely not unleash TP until then

Off topic from this game (it is already 21-0 Wake for those not watching...so don't turn it on), but does anyone else think USC is going to get a challenge from Hawaii tonight?  Kiffy's first game, away, and while not a June Jones coached team, not the worst WAC team either.

Then again, Hawaii really isn't a June Jones coached team anymore and lacks the offensive power it used to have.  Sadly, in my opinion.

And just tuned in for the OSU Marshall game, first commercial?  You guessed it!  Velveeta and Ro-tel!  It's been so long.

Edit: Someone already mentioned it....so, in order to make this worthwhile, I'll give a game perdiction:  OSU 42  Marshall 10

Good stuff

Good stuff. We fired up at the JCB and had several posts today including the first officially Booked picks of the season. If you need shit to read, I'd be obliged if you checked it out

Otherwise, enjoy the night. Let's have some fun in this thread.

Sadly, Marshall has already crapped down one leg. They'll probably crap down the other one before this first quarter is over.

These Marshall receivers

These Marshall receivers can't catch ANYthing.  That's like, 6 dropped passes in a row.

Dunno which game most people are watching

But the game on ESPN (S. Carolina vs. Southern Miss) Is shaping up to be a pretty good game thus far. 7-3 second quarter with SCar driving. 

I'm flipping between that and Rotel/Velveeta. The Minnesota game thus far is awful

And down goes Pryor

blindside hit for the sack

but then the D got unsportsmanlike conduct. CMON MAN!

And he should have just thrown a pick, but the wide out made a good play to break up the INT

Seems like more of the same to me, he's hit a couple open receivers but is  still struggling with his accuracy and has questionably lofted a couple downfield.

I have to agree...yes, it's

I have to agree...yes, it's tOSU, but the haters here are getting pretty out of hand. Pryor has looked pretty good to me, and, they are on pace to put up 70! Let's just say they seem to be shaping up to be a most formidable opponent. There has been no evidence thus far to the contrary.

That being said, I hate them and they still suck, now and forever.

being fair

he hasn't looked "good/great" - he's made horrible reads, he's refused to put his head down for 3 yds and instead danced for -1, he made an awful throw near the endzone deep after fumbling a hike that would be picked 9 times out of 10, he's underthrown, etc etc. frankly i'd be pissed if forcier looked like this against marshall. his one big move was a 65 yd throw in which the marshall corner got flat out embarrassed with a zag to the sideline. he does not look like a heisman candidate... doesn't even look like mccoy or stafford pre-NFL at this point

Glad you are seeing

the same game as me.  Pryor is good at hitting wide open guys.  To me that is more on Marshall's secondary being slow and terrible than Pryor being awesome.  He did have that nice long bomb, but his throwing motion is horrid and for every nice play he seems to have a terrible throw.

The TV guys are definitely all over his jock.  He underthrows a short toss into the endzone, forcing the WR to make a difficult adjustment and the idiot color guy talks about him "squeezing it in there."  Clearly the script for tonight was to talk him up.

It's not as bad as it looks

A lot of Marshall's recievers have been open if they could catch/if their QB could hit them. They're all over the place, but most of these incompletions wouldn't have to be. They're there to make the hit. They're NOT there to break up the pass.

they're also playing a mix of their 2s and 3s at times. they put in their 2nd offensive line up 14-0 so i would presume these aren't their playmakers

I just want to say that the comments in this thread are making my night. That is all.

Also, I can't watch the game, but Jacory Harris and Miami (YTM) seem to be one-upping Pryor and the Buckeyes tonight. Gosh I hope Miami wins next week.

Also, Harris is much more stylish than Pryor. This will undoubtedly get in Pryor's head before the game and psych him out.

Is there a law that prevents people from drinking alcohol in a TV commercial?  I've noticed that in all beer commercials (as well as these Buffalo Wild Wings ads), you never actually see anyone drink.  They'll hold up the glass, toast, whatever, but they never, ever drink it.

fwiw

back in my radio career it was illegal to do so (and that was radio)... obviously not illegal on sitcom/programming given Colbert's affinity for Bud Light Lime but there are definitely odd rules (that may or may not be followed by on-air talent in Lansing 3-4 years ago)

The BW3 ads are supposed to be funny, but they're mostly scary. They apparently are involved in a far-reaching conspiracy to keep customers trapped in their restaurants through the use of deception and fear.

First they bought football refs, then basketball players, and now weathermen? Where does it end?

It's kind of astonishing that he's even back on the field.

As much as I hate to say it, no alcohol makes chicks hotter.  I had an LDS friend for a couple years.  His eventual wife's friends were just ridiculous.

their age old tradition of having a crappy team but a couple of suprisingly awesome RB's that save the day with ground churning, pile splitting runs.

I thought RR was waiting til the game to announce the starter but Rece Davis just said Denard will start. Am I missing something or is this just more of ESPN being ESPN.

That loss hurt soooooo bad. We were #2 preseason. They were like #20. Went to that game feeling so confident. They rolled us in the 2nd half. Still hurts. Loudest stadium I have ever been in.

I don't think we were #2.  I know OSU was the preseason #1 that year.  I think we were like #4 or #5.  Not that it made it any better to get punked by a Bob Davie ND team.  Jim Herrmann, how could you be completely unprepared to face the option?

I was at the game, right by the end zone where he was hurt. He was held for a couple seconds and then after the throw somebody from Buffalo rolled over him. It was a huge hit.

Crap.

USC just blows down the field for another touchdown.  I think we have found a defense that is worse that ours was last year.  Hawaii's defense sucks.

So I just switched over to the USC game after Pitt-Utah ended.  USC has gone for two-point conversions on all three touchdowns?  WTF is up with that?  Is Kiffin just being a jackass?  I mean, even if they haven't settled on a kicker yet, you'd think this game would be a good time to audition one.

The only thing I can think of

The only thing I can think of so far is that he's found some football equivalent of tempo-free (Pomeroy, etc) stats that say that his expected point gain is higher by going for two every time, much like the theory that says that teams really ought not to punt much.

I'd be surprised if the above were actually true, and I don't think I'd want to give Kiffin the credit for being that "visionary."  I'm going to stick with my theory that he's a pompous jackass.

Conquest Chronicles,

Conquest Chronicles, SBNation's Trojan blog, has a lot of speculation on their open thread.  The guess there is that he has exactly zero confidence in the kicker, but I like your theory better.  

Maybe Monte is a visionary and told Lane to do it or he wouldn't get any ice cream after the game?

Hahaha, yeah, maybe.  The idea that he has zero confidence in his kicker makes this whole situation seem backwards to me.  If I had a kicker that needed work, I would think that his would be a perfect time to give it to him.  Kick some gimme extra points against a team that you're going to blow out.  I mean, if he's afraid to have his kicker attempt an extra point, does that mean they'll never attempt a field goal all season?

My new theory is that they're only carrying one place kicker and he came down with [insert amusing illness] right before/during the game.  But that would again be giving Kiffin too much credit towards not being a douchebag, which I'm reluctant to do.

My guess is that its another one of Kiffin's ploys to draw attention to his program.

Not that USC needs that right now, but at the beginning of the broadcast the sideline reporter said the Kiffin told her that the violations he committed at Tenn were part of his plan to make the program relevant.

Since violations at USC are not a good idea right not, I'm guessing that he's trying to find other ways to get his program talked about.

Anyone else just see the small yellow "U Suck Cheaters" sign front an center on national TV.  I wish I could give that girl a high-five.

Well, it clearly wasn't the kicker. Solid extra point...

Hawaii is fucking awful, I don't think this can be overstated--especially on defense.

Yep, not the kicker

As my other theories continue to fall away, it's becoming more clear that we're left with the Kiffin's-a-Douchebag theory as the most likely.  Occam's Razor.

On note of the USC game, I just want to point out that the first auto-response search that comes up when you begin to type "Lane Kiffin" into Google is "Lane Kiffin Wife."

If Hawaii can score here

If Hawaii can score here right before half this might be worth staying up for the second half.

Wait, what???

Officials take a touchdown away from Hawaii.  Once again even with replay they get obvious calls wrong.

wow Kiffin is a Dick

It's amazing he doesn't appear to get half the bad press RR gets (or maybe its just that I don't see it).

When the reporter asks him "what have they figured out..." he replies "Nothing, they just figured out that we hit a guy late." and just comes across as a whiny person.

WAC commercial: nine universities working together.  Might want to fix that.

It's way past time to retire Lou Holtz.  I can't even understand what he's saying.  The man needs a bib.

Yep

Every time I see one of these Dr. Lou segments, I am utterly shocked that someone is paying him to speak.  It never ceases to blow my mind.  Does anyone enjoy that?

I really think

I really think Kiffin may actually cry if USC loses this game. He looked like he was fighting tears when Hawaii was awarded that TD initially.

What's with Hawaii's QBs all

What's with Hawaii's QBs all but sitting on their haunches when they take a snap from under center? Also, I'm really pleased to see USC's defense looking young and awful.
