The OFFICIAL 2016 College football RANDOM THOUGHTS thread

[Lucky_Lefty]

Yeah I remember that game shyt hit the fan after the USF loss that year that year was so forgettable. Honestly the entire 06-09 era is a big blur I can't even remember maybe but 3 highlight wins from that era. The win at #2 BC,beating Miami 41-39 and blowing out BYU in Provo.

Was at the Provo. Had sideline passes and all. Stuntin on them Mormons when G5 got that slingshot INT. Had to get the fukk up outta there cause that place ain't for a black man who pop off. Good times tho. Yo we gotta do a Coli Noles meet up for a game soon

NCAA OPTS TO THINK RATIONALLY, RESCINDS BAN ON SATELLITE CAMPS

After weeks of discussion, the Division I Board of Directors reversed its recent ruling which banned satellite camps, the NCAA announced Thursday afternoon. Football Bowl Subdivision programs will now be allowed to hold satellite camps.

“The Board of Directors is interested in a holistic review of the football recruiting environment, and camps are a piece of that puzzle,” Board of Directors chair Harris Pastides, president of the University of South Carolina, said in a statement. “We share the Council’s interest in improving the camp environment, and we support the Council’s efforts to create a model that emphasizes the scholastic environment as an appropriate place for recruiting future student-athletes.”

On April 8, the Division I Council announced a rule effective immediately that prevented FBS coaches from conducting or working at camps or clinics away from their school. Head coaches at major college programs like Ohio State's Urban Meyer and Michigan's Jim Harbaugh were outspoken and opposed the ban, hoping the NCAA Council would revisit its ruling.

"I just hate to see it," Meyer said in response to the ban April 11. "Probably hundreds of scholarships come out of here to those young players and I know my son is getting recruited a little bit so what camps do you send them to? Not many kids can play at Ohio State so don't send them or send them but ... Now Bowling Green won't have a chance to watch him play."

Places like Ohio State and Michigan weren't the ones hurt by the ban. It was the Group of Five schools and the high school prospects who were affected most. High school coaches expressed their displeasure, as well.

"I'm not worried about the high-, high-level players, because they're going to get where they need to get," Meyer said April 11. "I'm talking about there's a big chunk of players out there that deserve to play major college football. I think they'll, I hope they'll revisit it. I'm not saying it's right or wrong, because I don't really know about it."

Meyer, and Harbaugh, got their wish.

What was your largest comeback on the game? I've played so many but the most recent comeback was Alabama vs Georgia. Georgia was unranked up 24-7 in the 3rd. But I came back and ended up winning 34-31.

I remember using them Big 12 teams a lot I came back from down 21 with 4 minutes to go in game with Texas Tech vs Oklahoma but ended up fumbling in OT and lost by 6.


I try to play the tempos the actual schools play even though one year I had FSU going no huddle shyt wasn't even fair. At first playing Alabama was tough but after awhile I started figuring out how to beat they defense I used to love using my RB's in passing game I had Chris Thompson out there looking like a prime Darren Sproles

That Florida offense was painful Urban's first year it was a miracle they went 9-3 shows how good a coach he is.

Well yeah that offense still had Zook's finger prints all over it. It wasn't until 07 when Urbs really got his offense to be the machine he wanted it to be.

I don't remember all that

I remember thinking they would catch them two Ls they did

And still won a title with his offense nowhere near what he wanted

07 offense was potent the Gator defense just sucked that season they lost damn near every starter from title team.

I don't remember all that

I remember thinking they would catch them two Ls they did

05 Bama was one of best Bama D's I remember the lack of offense just did them in those Shula seasons (go figure) The Iron Bowl that year was painful I caught the first half before going to watch USC and Fresno play that boy Brodie Croyle was getting abused by Auburn D.

 

[RammerJammer]

I don't remember all that

I remember thinking they would catch them two Ls they did

#2 in Total Defense that year, only gave up 17 ppg Not to mention a loaded defense with Demeco Ryans, Simeon Castille, Roman Harper, Anthony Madison, Charlie Peprah

 

[Tide Run This]

It's crazy I was just reading about the 05 team they only scored over 20 points one time in 7 games (Utah St) rest of that season after Prothro got injured.
