Re: College Football Thread?

Hey, sam, really happy to see Nebraska get the job done. Great win. I'm a very proud B10 fan right now. Gotta admit, I didn't like Nebraska's chances so I picked Georgia. I didn't really like Iowa's chances, either, but I picked them anyway. Been a Hawk fan too long to do anything else, I guess. Now it looks like Central Florida is poised to make me look dumb again.

Thanks Bassman, I really wanted to pick the Huskers but I thought that I knew them too well and I'd be best off picking GA. Iowa had a tougher challenge and played a good game.

With the gold helmets and masks Baylor reminds me of Droids. C-3PO comes to mind........

Bortles scores again. UCF up 42-28 with 14 minutes to go. Only problem is that it takes Baylor about 50 seconds to score ... :facepalm:

Okay, it took a minute and 21 seconds for Baylor to score! 42-35 UCF up. If you like offense, this is a fun game. I need to go to bed, but with 12 minutes left in the game, there could be 7 or 8 more touchdowns scored! :faint2:

4:44 left to play ... 52-35 UCF ... 17 the other way! This was the underdog I felt confident that could win. However, 4:44 is plenty of time for Baylor to score 3 times!

TD Baylor, 1:15 left ... Too little, too late, I believe ... 52-42 UCF. Baylor keeps getting penalties ... Unsportsmanlike Conduct, pass interference, defensive holding ... I think that wast he 17th penalty on Baylor ...

I have watched them a few times this year, starting with their win offer Penn State. I picked them because of Bortles.

You out played us with UCF. I guess the rest (including me) let the odds sway us. Oh well, there's always tomorrow, I better recheck the odds for Bama/OK St. :D
