I didn't want to fill up the UNC football thread with a bunch of stuff from other college teams. If someone else, who doesn't have people ignoring them, wants to restart this so everyone can see it, go ahead and do that. I'd rather have a thread that everyone can see.
 
I will probably watch some of the USC / Stanford. I want to see how SC looks without Daniels.
 
I'm a Bucs fan, a USF fan, and an FSU fan. My sports life sucks right about now. :eek:

It's not so great for pro sports in Metro Detroit either. The major college programs are decent, but I could care less about them. The only college program I is support UNC.

What do you think the problem is with the Noles? I know Jimbo left the program in bad shape, but that's two years removed now. I would have thought Taggert would be able to show signs of improvement by now.

I honestly don't know. I'm still giving the guy the benefit of the doubt, and he's brought Briles in who is a great offensive mind...however, I'm not sold on Barnett. The defense doesn't play gap responsible and they don't wrap up. Most of the guys on the defense are looking for that KO blow and they just throw themselves at the runner. Then after they miss, the runner gains an extra 15-20 yards. I mean, they almost lost to a Sun Belt bottom feeder. That's just unacceptable. I don't know if more kids need to be weeded out or what.

The word is that after the Boise loss it was the younger players who had to keep the older players from jumping off the bridge. That just isn't a good sign. This may last for a couple more years.

Noles add new hire to defensive staff

Growing up in the nc mtns i was surrounded by tenn fans. Way more than unc or state. And it was in the tenn glory years. (Although they still couldnt beat bama) Truly obnoxious fan base. I learned to despise them. I’m loving seeing them suck.
 
Looks like it’s back to reality for the yardbirds. Guess the step up in competition matters. Bama is no Charleston Southern. 14-3 tide
 
Hilinski must be living right because there’s no way that ball should’ve been caught better thank Tyler for that one.
 
OK follow me here. If the Yardbirds beat Alabama does that mean we can be clemson? Because if the Yardbirds are better than Alabama and we beat the Yardbirds then maybe we can beat the tigers. That will give you something to ponder. I know I’m grasping here but.....
 
This game is almost a clinic on how to throw a screen pass that seems to be all both teams know how to do
 
OK even Alabama make some dumb offensive play calling but they redeem themselves by scoring a td

The transitive property is the only hope I have to brag about the Noles, so I say...Go for it!!!:D
 
FSU leading UVA at half-time. Of course, FSU has been tragic in the second half...So we'll see how they progress.

Edit: I will add that the defense looks a lot better in this game.
 
UF offense looking better now with Trask in at QB. Down 21-16 in 4th but driving
