Your playing at Auburn where yellow flags are known to be picked up and where replay officials are often seen leaving the stadium in a big hurry. :hihi: I can also say that about Jacksonville, where an instant replay showed a very late flag for, "not enough men on the line," mysteriously land 40 yards down field at the end of a long Georgia gain. :huh:
well given the way the polls work, the first 2 teams to lose will be in the NC i respectfully disagree there would be a pecking order based on conference take it one step further, a 1 loss Big 10 champ Illinois or a 1 loss PAC-10 champ ASU has essentially no chance at playing for it all since they are starting too low in the polls (given that there are other 1 loss teams, ala Florida, Georgia, LSU, OU, etc)
Not a bad rep to have in my opinion. Of course in one of those seasons he lost only once and didn't make the championship game and in another his only losses were to the eventual national champion. Most everyone in the country looks at UGA's schedule and believes it would be darn near impossible to get through unscathed and that the possibility of 2 losses is very rwal, yet when UGA does lose many will point to Richt and declare him a failure yet again. I just don't get it myself. By the way, I think you are right on the mark with your comment about a 1 loss ASU or Fighting Illini and think you could add several other teams to that list as well, but I also think with the parity in today's game things like that can work themselves out with higher rated programs losing more than one time, like in a conference championship game. I can't wait for this season to began and hope it is just as topsy turvy as last season. I'm hoping the Big 12 up and comers continue on their path of being up and comers. I hope ASU under Erickson is the real deal and that Bellotti and Tedford can keep Oregon and Cal competitive and give USC stiff competition(sooner or later someone else has to win that conference, maybe this is the year) and of course I hope some of the sleeping dogs of the Big Ten such as PSU, Iowa and Mich St. can finally step up and compete with OSU and make their run through the Big 11 at least more than a cakewalk. I think Michigan is at least a year away under Rich Rod although if he goes back to the offense he ran at Tulane I think he can quicken their pace of recovery by a bunch. The SEC is going to be a bitch this season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Another 2 loss champion would not surprise me and in fact I'm expecting it. Are you ready for some football????????????????????
I'm not sold yet on Missouri and Kansas, moreso KU, out of the two. KU caught everyone by surprise last year, but now, they'll have a target on their backs. Can they play with that? LSU has struggled mightily with the target from time to time. Missouri should be interesting. Chase Daniel is a player, for sure. What else did Missouri lose to graduation, though? Is there something we don't know? They certainly have not had the recruiting classes that the top powers have. Nor has KU. It will catch up to them, IMO.
I think Chase Daniel wanted to play for the Longhorns, but Perrilloux verbally committed to Texas so they got off of Chase and he needed a new home, wound up at Mizzou. I think Tex. wishes they had him now.
After preaching about loyalty as well as bitching about other teams tampering with his commitments, Brown tried to get Daniel to switch from Mizzou to Texas very late in the process because he knew he was going to loose RP.
Yes, Daniel was miffed that UT was not interested in him (too short, I believe), so he had a verbal with Mizzou, which Brown tried to get him to back out of the day before signing day. All things considered, I guess I wish LSU had recruited Daniel and let Texas have RP.
