*Said in Peter Griffen's voice* 6 straight BCS Titles...That is my answer to that... As for the rest, it's different nowadays, we live in a fast food, fast consumption, overly media conscious society...Name recognition has meaning, and I'm telling you working in HS football, these kids have no desire to play for ND because of something as simple as that...I had a kid tell me point blank he wouldn't go there because his mama wouldn't see the name on the jersey... Do you now how Oregon gets kids from the south to play there? The built in Nike advantage...The locker rooms with flatscreen TV's on each locker, the ability to let players create their own uniforms every year with Phil Knight's camp...Young ballers are dumb, they like swagger type $hit and no names on jersey's only work in USC because LA is #2 market...Penn State gets some love to with the East coast bias, but ND is too talent strapped to ignore this... @ Tetra Vaal - Oregon is running that $hit primarily vs. the Pac12(10)...Do you think for a second they could do that $hit vs. 5,6 SEC teams in a season? Florida DID DO THAT, the same $hit in the NFL-lite conference... Oregon cannot hang with the SEC if all they are gonna do is try and out-tempo us...We have seen that $hit (Like 5,6 SEC schools play a version of that with more NFL caliber players)...We have seen that speed (from guys not as thin as a rail which is why they fumbled so much)... LSU doesn't even show up to the game with a QB and dominated...Oregon tried to put 9 men in the box and still got served... The only small school I'd give a chance vs. SEC if they somehow played us on a regular basis is Boise State, because BS outschemes, outplots, out-prepares...They also get the most out of their talent, unlike Oregon who thinks if they put the top 5 fastest guys on the field they'll just beat a team with lots of NFL talent...LSU would have gotten beaten tonite by a good SEC team with their passing game, but it's not even a disadvantage vs. the ducks...

I can believe it about kids..........although when coaches actually talk to them and show them like all the other actually IMPORTANT REASONS TO CHOOSE A COLLEGE. I think you could twist some arms, it just takes a good staff. (Name on jersey, for chrissakes mama just memorize a damned number, jesus!)
I mean otherwise how would you get people to go Virginia or Kansas State under Bill Snyder? Damned ESPNizations of sports. |

Which we should be moderating in college football anyways..............whatever.
If people make wierdass decisions just because of that fine. Just as there are more reasons to choose a school rather than its football program, there are reasons to choose a football program just because of lack of names. |

Auburn WAS the best team in the SEC last season, but they won nearly every SEC game by 7 points or less..It wasn't a dominate in-SEC year for them...Their D was super suspect, but Cam was killing it... This is about consistency...when you consistently lose to the SEC (all conferences) in all the big games what can one infer from that? The SEC is by far the best conference in college football with the most athletes that go to the NFL over the past 10 years...Those are facts...I know people from other conferences get pi$$ed or whatever when you tout the SEC, but the proof is in the chocolate jello snack pack...How many times have the best teams in the SEC just embarrassed the competition from the other conferences in national games? How many more BCS titles must the SEC win in a row before yall get this thru the pink meat that lines your inner skull caps? Oregon just fumbled huh? LSU's Manbeasts didn't punch those balls out of the grips of these fast skinny guys that the ducks fielded last night did they?...Keep making pedestrian excuses for a team that got dominated by the defense and Special teams unit of LSU last night...LSU's offense, if it had just a $hitty passing game would have won by 30.... LSU gave them the last TD to run out the clock...That game was over in the 3rd Quarter, because LSU and most teams in the SEC possess the size and speed to combat these kind of teams...LOL, what am I suppose to be sorry that LSU defenders who are NFL roster spots waiting to happen knocked duck players out of the game because of their physicality? That's just bull$hit right? Look, have some pudding on me bruh...The proof is in that $hit, you'll taste it... A bit harsh right?

That degree in sports journalism must not account for much considering your incoherent babbling and endless salivating of a conference being blown out of proportion by some misinformed blowhard. I couldn't care less about who you know or what school you attended. You can pound your chest and scream supremacy all you want it still won't make up for the fact that you're not very smart. Oregon lost for the reasons I listed, not because the SEC is "THE FUCKING HULKAMANIA OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL BROTHER!! WE HAVE MANBEASTS IN BEAST MODES AND APE MODS AND CHEETAH MODES AND EAT THE PUDDING AND TASTE THE SHIT SEC!! RAW WE'RE SO FUCKING L337 CUZ ESPN SAYS SO AND I SAY SO!!" No one is even denying the quality of the SEC here-- yeah, they are the best conference in college football, but childish nitwits like you take the term "excessive" to an entirely new level.
Oregon wasn't dominated-- and if you really believe that, then I'm doubting any college experience you may have, especially from a high class college like LSU. But I'm going to assume you are what I mentioned above: a blowhard. They could have won that game by only 3 points and you'd still be making superfluously obnoxious claims to validate your straw thin reasons for why Oregon lost. They weren't out-muscled or "knocked out" (Oregon's top two backs left because of cramps, you know, those similar injuries that were happening to LSU's players as well), did you even watch the game or are you just a blowhard? Oh wait, I already covered that. Like I said, a 100% healthy Oregon team can hang with any team in the nation-- kinda funny how that true freshman fumbles in virtually back to back plays. That's a 14 points swing in the span of a couple minutes. Oregon was in that game on both sides of the ball til' both James and Barner went down (guarantee you had LSU lost their top two playmakers you'd be singing the same tune I am right now). And you want to know why I'm right about this? Because I don't particularly care for either team. I can look at this objectively (that, and I actually know a thing or two about football, something you don't)-- while you sit there with a thumb in your ass trying to spout off these chest-beating words like "manbeasts" which is very ESPN-esque (guess you're not much different from the knobs of TMZ either, huh?) EDIT: Oh, and anyone that needs to say "in Peter Griffin's voice" to make a point needs to take a drop dead pill, immediately. |

Wow, just one reply and you have already devolved into the average wingdarkness post victim ...A pity really...
#7 for LSU Tyrann Mathieu was Defensive Freshman of the Year last year, so i don't wanna hear any crap about freshman this and freshman that...If you are in the game, YOU ARE IN THE GAME...That's small boy talk bro...Nobody told the coaches to put #6 back in the game against those growna$$ men...The fact that you would use that to supplement your argument shows your hidden desperation... LSU dominated this game from the middle of the 3rd to the end when it just started to I-form the f**k out of that ducks front line...We had 98 yds passing, and won all 3 phases of the game, if that isn't domination you must be thinking with your other pink meat... Barkavius Mingo stepped on #21's foot for the ducks and he left the game..LSU's backup running back had 99 yds rushing in the game, what did Oregon's 2nd string, 3rd-string guy do? C'mon Mr. Tetra Vaal, your futuristic scrap heap robotic mind must be able to put this together...LSU has more depth, more size, and just as much speed...The Oregon coach pretty much admitted this in the postgame and he's not the type to ever cave in...But the undeniable vision of truth was bore before him... LSU is 3, 4 deep at nearly every position...If they lost their top 3 running backs, they'd put in Alfred Blue another 5 star blue chipper...I have almost no concerns about LSU losing players...Lost there starting QB and WR for this game and look at the results...Vs the SEC schedule this will make a difference though...

Look kid you got potential...Going all hardcore on me after like 1 post means I hit a soft spot...For that i do apologize...This is a sports talk thread and it is one of the rare animesuki forum threads where people can talk a little smack(i.e. smacktalk) and not get banned or what have you, but play it closer to the vest because your vitriolic attempts at besting me is showing that you are taking this to heart...I said my post with a little boasting and pride as is common for trash talking, but in true realism I've probably forgotten more $hit about football then you will ever know...So maybe you should take your Sigma six robotic mind (Tetra Vaal? Jesus Skywalker ) and figure out your cheesepuffs to mouth ratio and how to accomplish that while XboX controller-clutching while cuticle-clicking on your Gears of War or whatever videogame or 3d rendering you stole your name from... Now that last sentence was cheap... I had one about pudding but redundancy doesn't go well with my superfluous tendencies^^, so adjust your maniacal ravings accordingly and realize like last nights game this is a match that's already been won... Edit: "Manbeasts"...

First and foremost, you didn't set me off or rile me up-- no need to stroke an ego. I can assure that's just how I communicate with people on forums and if you don't believe that, feel free to look in 'The Dark Knight' threads or anything pertaining to some shitty modern movie that fraudulently receives praise.

Oregon's offense wracked up 335 total yards compared to LSU's 273, most of which that came on the ground. Oregon was 9/19 on third downs and most of those came during 3 and outs where they shot themselves in the foot with stupid penalties deep in their own territory. If anything, that's just an example of Oregon beating themselves. Both teams pretty much averaged 3.5 ypc-- which is funny considering LSU clearly had the more dominant run game... according to you, anyway. Oh, and then there's Oregon's 4 turnovers which two of them fall on the shoulders of a true freshman. Yeah, you can call it an excuse, but I'm merely using it as a frame of reference for as to why LSU did not DOMINATE Oregon as you claim. Not to mention that Oregon was only down 13 with almost 10 minutes left to go in the game-- hardly a domination to overcome. And finally, the time of possession was practically even-- but one stat that really sticks out is Oregon's 12 penalties for 95 yards compared to LSU's 5 for 47. LSU was just the more disciplined team in that regard. Quote:

........Mais, quoi?
Anyways, I'm just happy that Virginia took care of buisness. FSU, Vah Tek, UNC, GT all did the same thing. Looking forward to the Miami-Maryland game, can't wait to see that neato seating arrangement the Terps will do at Byrd (hope people actually show up) and them snazzy new Uniforms. |

Hey to each his own. I think the Maryland flag is awesome graphically and they used that to great effect on the helmet.
Also liked the seating arrangement. They don't have an easy game against WVU next week but if those Terps manage to fix the red zone problems, they could be a sleeper. Man I forgot how self serving, impatient and unaccomadting sports fans are. Miami thinks that they played like an FCS team or something going by what you see on some boards. Honestly, no glass half full viewpoints. If you always expect BCS level gameplay ALL THE DAMNED TIME you likely are gonna be dissapointed (with only very few exceptions). And maybe it's the martial arts thing rubbing off on me but DON'T NO ONE ever wanna give credit to their opponent if they play well. |

^ I thought the jersey//helmets were mind-trippy tight (Like give your opponent vertigo tight^^)...And they certainly accomplished their goal since everybody on ESPN and Twitter are talking about it...So the publicity alone was a win for Maryland, add the actual win and there you go...
