Re: Bosie State v Anyone

I agree ... If the Broncos could start a game as strongly as they finish it, they could be something special. These things are fixable. Generally, execution comes down to discipline. And clearly, by the way they play at the end of their games, they have the potential to execute. So, there must be so...

Re: Random Thoughts on Week 12

It is all regional, and network association. An example of networks: A few years back, I was set to watch the Miami/FSU game at home, on espn; I had Direct TV back then --- a friend of mine, who was having a down day, invited me over to his house, and said, we'd watch the game there, so I thought, o...

Re: Spurrier Walks - O'Leary Quits as AD - Sark is Canned

Add Scott Shafer to the list...fired from Syracuse.... A lot of coaching movement for sure. That's a nice catch there Billybud. This one completely escaped my view. I really thought he'd get another two years at the very least, to really get the program running as "his". There were moment...

The BCS made changes to its formula every season --- MoV was a criteria the was used in both the Human & Computer polls during the first 4 years. It was X'd out of the Computer formulas do to BCS conference undefeated teams being ranked lower in the polls, than teams with 1 or more losses, as we...

Re: Bosie State v Anyone

One thing I did notice about last night, is, even when things seemed so bleak that the game was beyond their reach, the Broncos found life with a single turnover, to wit they built moment from, giving themselves life. They got back into the game. The defense became very active, and the offense belie...

--- Sometimes people hold a core belief that is very strong. When they are presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new evidence cannot be accepted. It would create a feeling that is extremely uncomfortable, called Cognitive Dissonance. And because it is so important to protect t...

Re: Playoff Poll Top 25 and Each Team's Next Opponent

Now, I was a bit surprised [though, pleasantly so] to see Iowa up at #5, when all you hear about them, is "who have they played". This has been a strong emphasis by the playoff committee, as to date. However, in that regard, Why then is Notre Dame ranked above Iowa, with one loss? With the...

Va Tech/Ga Tech

We have a live one here;the Yellow Jackets jumped out to an early 14-0 lead, but the Hokies have stormed back tying the game at 14 all at the half. Both teams are vying for a post season appearance, however, to become Bowl eligible, they each need to finish this season strong. For Georgia Tech whom ...
