We were having conversation earlier, what power 4 schools in the past 3 years have not had atleast a decent chunk wanting to fire there coach. I said Oregon, Texas, maybe Iowa state. Who else? What a sport

Wow Colorado's schedule turned out pretty soft.

Softest Big 12 schedules, by opp win%:

14. Colorado (16-28)
T15. BYU (14-30)
T15. TCU (14-30)

If BYU loses twice, ISU can still make the championship game at 11-1 with a loss to KSU and CU winning out. BYU plays at Utah and ASU, so that’s not a totally crazy scenario

Looks like sanders is getting a handsy on the sidelines.

Really wish that Hail Mary against Baylor wouldn’t have happened. That would have probably kicked them out of the title game

 

[jdoggivjc]

Utah's fantasy: running the Big 12
Utah's reality: can't run the worst team in the Big 12 (Houston)

 

[Cyched]

Can ESPN just let people watch the game? These cutaways in the middle of the action are ******* stupid.

Yeah it is. BYU is going to soak the **** out of Utah.

WTF, Cincinnati. Just kick the PAT.

How is he not giving himself up here?

Interesting call with whether the qb slid or not. To me, that’s a slide. If you don’t call that a slide, the defense has no chance to know whether they should tackle the QB or not. If you’re going to give these special rules to QB’s there has to be consequences and anything that looks like a slide has to be called as such.

Edit: And of course, they rule it not a slide, making it impossible to play defense and know what a late hit is and is not by the defense.

Interesting. Didn't realize the controversy with that.

They said Wazzu's coach doesn't like his qb to slide (to a certain extent at least). Is there an option for a QB though?

Edit: I mean QB can just keep going, but with concussions and other injuries, usually coaches want their qb to play it safe, but I suppose there are instances when qb can expose himself to a certain extent.
