40 yards away from setting a Tangerine bowl record. You gotta let him go for it. Even if they up 30 points. Sorry but you gotta go for it.

[cphilip]

He gets the passing record. And then comes out of the game. Class act that is.

Peach you silly! Heck we prolly don't even deserve THAT! Gotta play Tennessee to boot! But we sold it out even before Tennessee was chosen. Typical Clemson following gets us bowl games we don't even deserve it seems. But heck I just hope we don't stink it up too bad.

[1stdeadeye]

We did the Peach last year and beat Tennesse like a government mule!

We moved up to the Gator Bowl and NBC, not cable!;)

Oh well depends on which Clemson shows up. You could be in for a suprise. Yea I know your dissapointed and all. But head to head counted remember? Um.... ;)

Well I sure not looking forward to playing a pissed of Tennessee thats for sure. But again....depends on which Clemson team decides to show up. On a good day...your toast. On a bad day we will stink it up!

Good call..especially considering the falters we had earlier in the year..But regardless, I still maintain we have too much talent to lose..again, no offense meant ;)..As for the head to head..we beat Florida @ the Swamp(Not to mention Miami @ the Orange Bowl, who saw that coming, eh? We will destroy the state of Florida! But first, gotta finish off the rest of SC!! ;) ). I won't comment on Georgia game, other than their fans are the frattiest bunch of people ever. :p

You hit the nail right on the head, sans the toast part..;)..and from a couple of the guys I've talked too, they *are* pissed at the snub, and ready for a bit of payback from last years bowlgame...Gonna be fun regardless :cool:

Hell no!!! haha..I was just ranting..my blood runs orange/white, so I'm still pissed about last year ;)...

hahaha, good call! :D

[ShooterJM]

I'm still waiting with baited breath for the rose bowl....:D Go MICH!

[spazzed]

/me shudders..

As much as this pains me, and believe you me, it really does...I hope Michigan wins.

DIE USC, DIE!!!!

[BobTheCow]

All I know is, my Notre Dame made it to the .500 bowl :D ... :( :rolleyes:

[TigerMan]

The bowls are fun to watch and all, but I get more fun out of reading the names. The names of the bowls just crack me up because of all the corporate sponsorship attached before the name, giving us suc great bowls like the Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl or the Continental Tire Bowl. Just hearing names like those make me really wonder if coaches are saying throughout the year "Come on boys, we got our sights set on that invite to the Continental Tire Bowl."

But with names aside, there's some pretty good matchups. Tonight's game should be a good one, Boise St. vs. TCU in the Plainscapital Fort Worth Bowl(another great name).

They beat them once, but WVU has regrouped since there. Virginia Tech? Pittsburgh? Not even a challenge. Even Miami struggled against ye ol' mountaineers

Ah young one! 23 in the coaches poll! That is the one that matters! 24 in the USA today rankings. And West Virginia is ranked where?:p

[cphilip]

I know this is like the Dead zone of football today but this Hawaii and Houston game actually is pretty good... Tied in the early 4th quarter now...lots of hitting and stuff. Not much defense but then again neither of them are very good but seem evenly matched.

[cphilip]

Dam if this ones now going to OT! Houston pulls out a miracle to tie it up. We in OT now!

[cphilip]

Hawaii wins in third OT and nasty fight erupts. Not good at all. Great game but sorry show of sportsmanship erupts into a brawl at the end. I not sure where it started. Very poor the way they all handeled it. Sickening. Shame because they all played one heck of a nothing bowl game.

Well it appears that indeed Clemson showed up and not the least of it they whipped your arse. Seems they wanted it more and out talented the Vols this year! WhooooT! :D

27 to 14 and never trailed in the game. Amazing but true.

[cphilip]

You know I hate to point this out but the ACC so far is kicking arse in bowl games. If it wasn't for Florida State faltering against Miami last night and losing by 2 points we would already outright have won the trophy for conference wins on Bowl games. And that is against the one leading Conference that gets the advantage of only playing 4 games against our 5! Now we gotta somehow compete against a conference that plays LESS BOWL GAMES! I don't accept this. But at this point we are in second for that trophy. And against a conference that does not play as many Bowl games as the ACC and has as many members! Who's idea was this? It's certainly not a very accurate thing at all at this point. If GA Tech wins we will have gone 4-1 in bowl games. Whereas this other conference is now 3-0 with one more game to go. Now how is that figured? I don't get it at all! Same number of teams in conference and all....I can see the balance based on members but THIS conference is not any bigger than we are. And we are smaller today than the SEC and we beating them in match ups! And got a bigger percentage in bowl games! sheesh! :rolleyes:

Hmmm... where are you now spazzed? Suddenly silent? Better huh? Oh I guess its good they got a lesser bowl so they would only be humilitated by a lesser team! Bwahahahahahah

Losers! :D

[1stdeadeye]

You notice that too Phil?

Suddenly all of these "fans" are real quiet! I have yet to hear from Automaggin2 about his monster WV team that my Alma Matta destroyed 41-7!!!!

FEAR THE TURTLE!!!!!!!!

[cphilip]

Yep. Maryland did us proud. Flat out stomped em. Not even close!

OK OK, they had a bad game. Wait til next season. I think there is going to be an upset. Just wait, Harris, Henry, and Pacman are goin to come up BIG next year, guarentee you a Big East title next year.




As for my other favorite team, they dominated KState in the first half. Such a sweet defense.

Good game Phil, I'm not even gonna start *****ing about it...But right now, I would looove to get my hands on a certain head coach whose main interest of late seems to be where he's going to find another hamburger. :(

I smell a rivalry in the making!


Come to Morgantown next year for the game!

[cphilip]

Hehehe... well. I just didn't see much fire outa the Tennessee boys last night. Looked like they just figured they could just show up or something. And then they sorta lost their cool late in the game when they could have come back and gotten into it and made it a game. I dunno whats wrong with them right now. You might be right though. Could be Coaching. I do know they just seemed like they were not ready to play and were not playing with much emotion at times.

Of a big note... the ACC won the Conference Trophy today. Yep. Georgia Tech took it away today and we ended up 5 - 1 in bowl games. It should be noted that Florida State is the only one that stumbled in thier game against Miami and lost by 2 points (Fla State misses a close shoulda been easy field goal in the game) but remember that Miami is scheduled to be an ACC team soon. So not to shabby for the ACC after all. But indeed the Trophy for best conference goes to the ACC! ;)

WV needs to make it a game before it can be a rivalry. MD has destroyed WV 4 or 5 times in a row. Next year the ACC will rule all conferences in Football and Basketball! We will be the premier conference in the NCAA for a long long time!:D

[Automaggin2]

Wow, you are joking about ACC in basketball, right?

I mean, Big East has or has coming in Louiseville, UConn, Marquette, Syracuse, Seton Hall, Georgetown, Villanova, Pittsburgh, Providence, Rutgers


All GREAT Basketball programs


Now for football, Big Ten and Big 12 will remain the top 2 conferences in the nation. Big Ten has the powerhouses like Ohio State and Michigan, Big 12 has Nebraska, KState, Oklahoma, and so on.

Nope. According to all the experts and acknoledged by the trophy presented by ESPN there is no better conference in the nation this year than the ACC in Football. Won in head to head competition with all the other Conferences in bowl games at the end of the season. Done deal...no arguing...no doubts. They won it. Period. No matter what you want to argue. AND To top that off there is now Miami Va tech and Boston College coming into the ACC. Many people have agreed they just created the premier conference in Football for which the SEC has always claimed dominance. I think everyone agrees that argument is now moot. And I can tell you that your claims to the Big Ten and Big 12 are NOT founded in facts. They rest on the few teams in them that have good programs. But when we talk power house as conferences we talk about the weak ones too. And those two are LOADED with weak programs. The SEC has always had a head over them both from top to bottom teams. The weakest SEC team is still as good as any team in any of those two. And thats what we are talking about when we talk Conference strength. And its a simple fact now that the ACC won this year. It's been established and we got the trophy to prove it. 6 bowl games and five wins. In a small conference too! :D

[Automaggin2]

cphil, ESPN has always said that about ACC. last year they did nothing but bad mouth the Big Ten and say how great the ACC was, but who came out on top last year? Big Ten. ESPN ALWAYS thinks the ACC is the greatest thing ever.
