Ryan Lochte is going to be speaking on national tv. This is going to be good.
And Florida fans chanting that Notre Dame is overrated is rich.
October 20th, 2012 at 2:54 PM ^
Florida, at least by comparison to Notre Dame, is not overrated. 2 national titles since 2006 is a lot better than none since 1988.
October 20th, 2012 at 11:56 AM ^
it's not.
October 20th, 2012 at 11:57 AM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 11:59 AM ^
Not quite on topic...but I love seeing that Mich/Sparty visitor thread, seems like they took 2 braeks and it just kept on going and going.
EDIT: on espn bottomline that is
October 20th, 2012 at 12:05 PM ^
If anyone wants to drink themselves to death......Galloway is doing the bucknuts/purdue game. That should be a nice slurpfest

October 20th, 2012 at 12:09 PM ^
LOL Ohio defense
October 20th, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
First play for Purdue is an 83 yard TD pass. This could be a shootout.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 12:11 PM ^
LOL OSU
October 20th, 2012 at 12:12 PM ^
A&M just went straight down the field and scored. Wow. With as bad as the LSU offense is, this might actually be a game.
Edit: Of course, Purdue and A&M both miss their extra points.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:11 PM ^
for the Ohio defense
October 20th, 2012 at 12:15 PM ^

2 missed XP's. Good lord, way to shine in the moment kickers. Up against big teams, missing XPs is not a recipe for success.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:18 PM ^

October 20th, 2012 at 12:32 PM ^
did she ever leave?
October 20th, 2012 at 12:19 PM ^
Fumble Braxton. First turnover I've personally seen from him this year. K'Waan short pulled it out of his possession while on the ground trying to recover the drop.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:20 PM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 12:21 PM ^

Wow, A&M is just a different team at home. They could have and probably should have beaten Florida and right now they are taking it to LSU. The difference is I don't think LSU has the offense to come back from a deficit like Florida did.
Also, LSU defenders are dropping like flies in this game.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:26 PM ^
Johnny football is becoming one of my new favorite players.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:24 PM ^
is just running right through LSU's defense. Making it look really easy so far.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:28 PM ^
So far, LSU is playing a lot of man coverage on the Texas A&M offense, which is making old school "three yards and a cloud dust" more like "twenty yards and a desperate tackle".
EDIT: Nice throwback for a TD...except the chop block brings it back plus another 15. Oops.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:28 PM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 12:28 PM ^
A&M runs the Vince Smith throwback screen and scores! But both linemen blocked the same guy in space and got called for a chop. Not sure what they were thinking there.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:28 PM ^
Now they got to punt again, I'm liking our chances in that hell hole more and more every week that goes by.
On BTN Live the other day, someone tweeted that ohio at 7-0 still has that AP National Championship in their sites, I of course ROFLMFAO and SMH
October 20th, 2012 at 12:29 PM ^
Nuts have been a slow starting team all season long and I fully expect them to win this game by about 20.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:30 PM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 12:30 PM ^
Another LSU defender down.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:31 PM ^
Is Bellomy the QB for Purdue this game?
October 20th, 2012 at 12:31 PM ^
Texas A&M is looking really good but you know that LSU will adjust
October 20th, 2012 at 12:32 PM ^
letting ohio of the hook
October 20th, 2012 at 12:33 PM ^
They are who we thought they were!
October 20th, 2012 at 12:33 PM ^
Wierd how football and transitive properties work. Purdue, today looks like the normal, semi-legit Purdue they are year in and year out (I know, Purdue sucks and is never good, whatever). Against Michigan, they never had a pulse.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:37 PM ^
You mean college football is a high variablity sport? Who would have guessed....
October 20th, 2012 at 12:37 PM ^
I realize that LSU will likely adjust, but one wonders if LSU is trying out parts of their defensive game plan for next week (Alabama) here. Leave the perimeter open, give people just enough room to catch some throwbacks and screens, etc...
October 20th, 2012 at 12:43 PM ^
Good hypothesis. Though I personally don't think LSU is all that great and they may not be able to adjust (offensively, because they're going to have to score today) i.e. one has to have a competent offense to adjust to in order to go to it!
October 20th, 2012 at 12:45 PM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 12:38 PM ^
How is Braxton missing his WR by so much? He's throwing fastballs that Tacopants couldn't even catch.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:39 PM ^
Umm...because he's not a very good passer? I mean, I thought this was established already/
October 20th, 2012 at 12:38 PM ^
October 20th, 2012 at 12:42 PM ^
Before or after Eric Martin? We should have a cut-off line here, yes?
It's not like they've needed them, not if they are going to allow sacks like that one on Mettenberger.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:41 PM ^
they have no offense at all. They'd score 0 points on us
October 20th, 2012 at 12:42 PM ^
Haha OSU. Nice return by Purdue.
October 20th, 2012 at 12:43 PM ^
Boiler up!
