College Football Week 2 Live Thread (Oh and GO Dawgs and Geaux LSU)




10:30

Yack USC won. Well as much as I hate USC Congrats. That was the toughest stadium to go into tonight. A good game though but again USC plays well on the road.

10:15 pm

Well it looks like Georgia shall beat South Carolina. For some reason again we shall do a litany of how how great the Georgia Coach is. I know it is getting annoying !!!
\Mark Richt could tie his shoes in the morning and based on that he is the third best SEC Coach. Why I don't know .

9:30
LSU wins against Vandy 23 to 9 . I am a happy soul

9:16
Oh my goodness the Cajuns are going to be wild tonight. ULL just beat Kansas State 17 to 15!!! Keep the children inside the house in Lafayette. Good Grief they are going to be annoying this week. Congrats ULL

9:15
T I G E E R S tigers!! LSU scores whew!!!! With 6 and something left it is LSU 23 to 9!!! I am frackin worn out

9:10
Goodness Maryland almost got beat by James Madison. I thought J Madison just had a basketball team. Final score Maryland 38 J Madison 35. Is Madison in this now pesky Colonial league

9:00
Ok we (LSU) need to SCORE HERE!! with nine minutes to go. The Crowd is into it thank God. The Crowd is singing living on a prayer. I know where they are at!!!

On a Louisiana note Kansas St has pulled ahead of ULL with 4 and something left in the game

Bama pulling ahead of Florida International in the 4th 33 to 14.

8:50 Oh thank the Saints LSU gets an interception on the 15!!! Thank God for Vandy mistakes. LSU gets the ball Charles Scott loses 2 yards!! What the heck is what with that. Then we go three and out :(

8:45
I am started to get worried about this Vandy game. Could we lose??? I am having a sinking feeling big time.

8:42
Oh for goodness sake!!! LSU screws up gets a safety on some bizarre Over snapped punt (The punting game worries me) now it is to 16 to 9!!! Vandy gets it in good field position. We need to work out the kinks and to be honest I am getting worried about this game!!!

8:40
For Louisiana readers this ULL game is significant and LSU fans should paying attention since we play them next week. ULL is one of those teams that is frustrating to me. They have a nice fan base and smack dab in the middle of some beau coup football talent. With that it seems it is one lackluster season one after the other now there for too many years I can count . It appears they are battling in a good confidence builder. It is 14 to 8 with ULL ahead. I hoe ULL pulls this out

8:20
Nice drive for LSU but sadly did not get 7 but I wil take the 3. Productive drive. 16 to 7

Bad news for the Fighting Perrillouxs. Jacksonville St does not get the upset. Appears that Florida State will hang on 14 to 9 to finish it out

Go Ohio State it is 10 to 7 against USC with about 6 something left in the first half.

I really want to see Air Force on TV. I am getting indications they might have some team. It is Air Force 10 to Minn 3 with it about to go in the 4th.

In Wac action Boise State is 14 to Miami of Ohio 0

8:04
Holy Crap LSU Fans , Out East the Fighting Perrillouxs (Jacksonville State) is beating Florida State 9 to 7 in the Fourth. Bad news RP spent a fake $20 on a hot dog and a coke at halftime and has been suspended for the 4th :)

7:45pm
Ok LSU is at half time so I can catch my breath. LSU up 13 to 7. It is raining down there and it is sort of sloppy

Mama Mia what is in happening in the LA LA land of Bama land. Alabama is just beating Florida International(a sun belt team) 20 to 14!!!!. Could Saban get beat by another Sunbelt team :)

Mcnesse had a nice win. They beat Appy State

This USC /OHIO game is fun. I really tired of hearing about USC. SO I am going for Ohio St. It is 7 to 7 in the first half

In SEC action Auburn and Miss State have a close game. Auburn 21 Miss 17 with just seconds left in the half. This game is the first SEC west game.

Georgia has sort of rebounded after a tough start. Georgia 24 South Carolina 17 with 9 something left in the first half

In Louisiana sunbelt action ULL (LSU's next opponents is doing good against Kansas St. It is 14 to 2 at the half in ULL's favor.



7:20
In other Louisiana action
Ull is beating Kansas State 7 to 2 with the 1st half winding down.
Yeah Tulane got slaughtered
ULM is handling Texas Southern quite well 35 to 0 with around 7 minutes in the second quarter

7:10

LSU up up 10 to 7!!

Michigan beats Notre Dame. Good game for both and I think it is safe to stay that ND is improved and so is Michigan 38 Father McBrien High 34.

Oh dear the big upset of the day so far. Houston 35 Okie State 35 (Ouch Ouch) Boone Pickens is not getting enough off his investment.

Washington 42 to 10 over Idaho!!! Geaux Washington

Ohh reality hits. Tenn gets beat by UCLA 19 to 15


6:54

Ok Back from Mass

La Tech Lost :( It seemed like we were holding our own before I went into Mass right before the 4th quarter :( I suspect it was defense fatigue more on that later after I find out what happened in the 4th.

LSU seems to be geting their stuff going 7 to 0 and we are threatening again. More in a sec after I can review all scores


4:10 pm
Ok about to head off too Mass. When I get back there should be games about finished and a ton of games starting!!

A few games of interest. Poor Tulane is losing it. BYU 20 @ Tulane 3 2nd HALF

I am curious how TCU will do this year. They are always at the edge of getting the program up an extra notch It is TCU 14 Virginia 0 HALF .

Houston 17 - Oklahoma St 7, 2nd Q with about 40 ticks to the half

Texas 6 Wyoming 3 2nd With a little over a minute left in the half.

Notre Dame 20 - Michigan 14 - 2nd Qtr with a about a minute and a few till the half.

3:51
Ahh the Tech Navy Game. I just want to get into the locker room for the half. The second quarter not so hot. Navy sort of was looking disorganized in that final drive as the half was winding down. So Tech got off good all things considering. It is Navy 18 La Tech 14

The Texas /Wyoming Game must be giving Longhorn fans heartburn. Texas 6 Wyoming 3 with a ton of time left in the second quarter.

Houston/ Okie State is till the close game I suspected it would be. Houston 10 Okie State 7 in the second quarter.

Early in the Second it is Michigan 14 ND 10.

In a much watched SEC afternoon game. It is Tenn 10 UCLA 3 with the 1st quarter rounding down.

LSU fans are all WASHINGTON FANS NOW. Thank goodness they are taking care of business. With about a minute left in the first half Washington 21 Idaho 6.

3:22
:( Navy takes the lead and does a fake for a two point conversion to rub it in. Navy 18 La Tech 14. Tech needs to answer

3:10
Sigh- Interception leads to a quick march down for the field for Navy. LA Tech 14 Navy 10 about a minutes left in the first. Oh and we then go 3 and out. Then the worse punt I have ever seen that after a horrible backward bounce ended up going 17 yards. Double sigh :(

Notre Dame look better than last year. Appears not to be a fluke. However it is currently Michigan 7 ND 0 in the first.

There are two other games are interesting in the first quarter. With the the 1st quarter almost over It is Texas 3 Wyoming 0. I think the Houston Oklahoma Game is one of those sleeper games Currently in the first Houston 7 Okie State 0

3:00
Ok TULANE needs to make some changes. First they move to an outside stadium with fewer seats and get out of the Superdome. I think this would make a much better game environment. On the whole College football is not really a inside dome game. Second they need to do some Major marketing to get people to the games. It is a shame all those empty seats at the game. You got a BYU ( a top 10 ranked team) at Home on National TV and look at the empty seats. Right now Tulane is not doing too bad either. Its BYU 3 Tulane 0 in the first right now. Why does New Orleans not support this? If I was a New Orleans LSU fan that was not going to the Vandy game I would be there. Maybe it just looks worse than it actually is. I am anxious about getting ACTUAL attendance figures.

2:45
Go Dawgs!! La Tech 7 Navy 0. Tech also made Navy go 3 and out . Oh no LIVAS ran it back on the punt!! 85 yard return now 14 to 0

2:35
Poor Fresno can't catch a break. It seems they often come close in big games and just can't finish at times. Wisconsin 34 Fresno 31 FINAL

Virginia Tech making nice rebound after last week In the 3rd VT 35 Marshall 7.

Some significant games are now starting up.

2:09
Some games have finished up
Penn St had not problems with Syracuse Penn 28 Syracuse 7
The Fresno St Wisconsin game is getting very interesting. It is going into OT!! It is 24 to 24. This would be a nice win for the WAC if they could pull it off .

Wake Forest makes a huge comeback and beats Stanford 24 to 17

This game might as well be over with just minutes left in the 4th Pittsburgh Buffalo (Yea I picked Pitt on my college pickem) It is Pitt 47 Buffalo 27

North Carolina survives!! 12 to 10!! against Conn.

Finally Duke is handling Army ( A much better performance than last week!!) With the game about over it is Duke 35 Army 13.

1:11pm
It appears Florida has things in hand down. Troy's dreams falling hard. At the half Florida 35 Troy 3
UNC is have a tought one currently UNC 0 Connecticut 10 going into the 4th (OUCH)

12.38pm

There is a interesting WAC game going on. Fresno 21 Wisconsin 17 at the half. That would be a nice upset. I have nto looked at the line but I got to think that would be a upset

At the half Stanford 17 Wake Forest 3.
I am watching this Florida game with a tad interest. With 8 minutes in the first half it if Florida 14 Troy 0 with Troy have possession.

you're next, LSU (hey ... it could happen ...)

James H said...

Congrats!!! No it wil not happen next week. It will be a sad long drive back over the atchafalaya basin :)

On a serious note a great win. When Louisiana teams are not playing LSU or LA Tech I root for them all. This was a important win for a program that should get better

Jim said...

Yes, USC did beat Ohio - but . . . it was Ohio, so that's a wash.
