Its really exciting to see

Its really exciting to see that if (big if) both Michigan and OSU win out, the game might decide who gets a shot at the playoffs, pending championship game, and who goes to the Rose Bowl.  Of course, all that is meaningless if we don't win this week...

I've really been wanting this

I've really been wanting this scenario.  I'd feel terrible for the kid if an entire potential year starting was wasted on a couple snaps in bad games.

LSU will be playing a backup

LSU will be playing a backup freshman QB in their bowl game, which I assume would only help our chances. 

Just as a fyi, Georgia's top

Just as a fyi, Georgia's top three rivals are Florida, Auburn, and GT. Tennessee is always a big game, but its more due to the importance of winning the East, not really because of a rivarly.

Well, after today it doesn't

Well, after today it doesn't look like Florida's going to be bowl eligible this year...

georgia opens at clemson next

georgia opens at clemson next year, so (as a georgia alum) i'm hoping this isnt the case.

I think you might of posted

I think you might of posted too soon re: Georgia.  Their offense is looking good, 38 now, still in the third. 

 

Also keep in mind that all 3 of these teams have huge in-state rivalry games next week, so the offense was probably pretty bland as designed.

It might be new, I just

It might be new, I just noticed it today.  Its a stand alone program for PCs.  I might try installing it on an older computer and report back on how it is.

 

Update - Its completely worthless, dont bother.

For streaming games

Does anyone have experience with the firstrowsports desktop/HD app?  I'm hesitant to dl it since I still feel like its a shady site, but the thought of better streams is enticing. 

I'd say yes.  The only person

I'd say yes.  The only person who you could maaaybe debate would be Brady, but it would be really hard.   Do superbowls trump a heisman?

Just fyi, the Wangler

Just fyi, the Wangler brothers just joined his team this year.  The critism of having poor recievers has been in reference to previous years.

Edit: Sorry I didn't see the post before which said the exact same thing. 

morris to wangler

is a good combo.  I really hope jack wangler takes a walk-on spot here next year.

new away jerseys? 

new away jerseys? Looks like we got rid of the yellow side from the non-techfit jerseys but kept the piping.  

I must be the only one who

I must be the only one who thinks Georgia actually has a shot of upsetting LSU.  What happens to the NCG if that happens?

I see me ;)

I see me ;)

Thanks.  A general comment

Thanks.  A general comment about the layout - theres a lot of empty space in the 3rd column of the 2-deep that could probably be better used. 

Hmm, I wonder how Gardner's

Hmm, I wonder how Gardner's back is doing this year...

He's going to be a first

He's going to be a first round pick this year. He wont be around for us anyways.

I wouldnt mind seeing a healthy Mike Martin in our last stretch of games either.

As a member of the georgia

As a member of the georgia fanbase, I don't see us melting down with a loss to boise.  Most of us are expecting a really hard game, and going 6-7 last year doesn't give us the most confidence going forward.  Any wins this season will be nice.

 

With that sad, I do look forward to watching georgia destroy boise after getting home from the western game.

I completely agree with your

I completely agree with your Georgia and Boise St rankings.  Can't wait to see them play this Saturday.

i'd love to see that video

i'd love to see that video they showed.  Too bad they couldn't play it on the big screens!  Would of been impressive. Hopefully they show it before the western or notre dame games.

Its amazing that the shortest

Its amazing that the shortest guy in the pic is 6'2".  Big peoples.

hey everyone,

So I just ran

hey everyone,

So I just ran by the stadium and snapped a shot of what it looks like on my ipod (hence the quality).  This was 3pm on 7/31.

 

Looks like they messed up on the block M and took it down. But, look below where the gate opens. Those appear to be the maize panels. So we'll see what they do in a few weeks.

For those interested, it now

For those interested, it now looks like they've taken down the maize sections of the back.  Change in plans?

Whats with official mock-up

Whats with official mock-up of video boards using away game images?  Our official mockup was an away game, and this one is actually of a game at georgia tech's stadium (they wear white at home sometimes, and notice the Russell brand poster in the background) You would think they'd use real home images.

just saw this too. 

just saw this too.  Maybe they made a mistake and put the point down too soon/low?

I *think* I just saw as I

I *think* I just saw as I drove by that the point in the middle of the M was as low as the other parts of the letter, as only seen in the M with michigan written across it.  I hope I'm wrong though.  Anyone else see it recently with the additional back pieces?

 

Did DB mention anything about

Did DB mention anything about how much the new expansion is going to cost?

i think they'll look better

i think they'll look better and classier in real life.  Plus, minimalism trumps ads all day long.

Morris is a champ.  Does this

Morris is a champ.  Does this mean their game will be broadcasted on espnu?

:D

Oh ok, so i'm also assuming

Oh ok, so i'm also assuming that the south end will get an exterior facelift, like the sides.  I'd love to see us top osu's rotunda exterior.

I'd love to see some mock ups

I'd love to see some mock ups of the stadium expansion.  Does this mean the stadium will be in 2 levels? If you keep expanding to the level of the scoreboard you'd definietly be way too far from the field.

Seems like we had the same

Seems like we had the same idea.  Also, think they're going to use the old michigan stadium letters for the top part of the board?

based on this image..



and the press release, which says the actual screens will be 47 feet high and 85 feet wide, i'm assuming what we see now is the (almost) complete screen size. If you count the levels of the frame, the current screen is almost exactly 4 stories, which aligns pretty well with the 47'.

heat index is currently 113F.... hope they have plenty of water up there.

Yes.  Check out this article

Yes.  Check out this article regarding Tennessee's new stadium.  http://www.volunteertv.com/sports/headlines/53102717.html

"On Wednesday night, downtown Knoxville and the UT Campus were treated to a lightshow from the HD board which measures 124 feet long and 37 feet tall.

 

Only colors were being shown on the giant board, but they were bright enough to illuminate the whole stadium. Callers to the WVLT Volunteer TV newsroom reported the colors could be seen as far away as Bearden Hill in West Knoxville."

 

And we have 2.

Theres a pretty good chance

Theres a pretty good chance he'll be in good shape and starting/rotating for our game.  I can't really see Richardson staying for his senior year next year. 

Last year AJ Green sold a

Last year AJ Green sold a jersey for $1000 and had to sit 4 games.  I dont see a worse penality coming for either of these players, especially considering the OLB got the "benefit" while at USC and the basketball player only recieved <$300.  1/3rd the season for him to sit out, max.

The IRS can though, and most likely will.  i'm pretty sure the NCAA can request that info through the FOIA.
