college football kickoff

most exciting sport, to me, began tonight. I think Saturday will be interesting, with Ga. Tech vs. Notre Dame, and Ok. State versus Georgia. Most interesting will be the Monday night Labor Day game between Clemson and Florida State. I am thinking Clemson wins by 10. A changing of the guard, so to speak.

Football is OK. I didn't go to a football college so I don't have that affection for it that those who graduated from those schools do.

I do like baseball though. The St. Louis Cardinals is my team. Lived there for 10 years during the '80's. Saw game 5 of the 1987 World Series with SRO tickets. What a blast.

All will be forgiven for what you have done to my lone post if you will agree to find a TGIF or somewhere that has satellite and watch Clemson--Florida State Monday night on ESPN. Actually, I would love to be watching that game in Bogota with my Colombian friends there. I would be trying to explain what was going on, they would be clueless but just happy that I was enjoying it, as they turned the sound off of the game, and turned up the music and starting dancing. I would be in disbelief, as I usually am there, and all would be well.

1. They have great rhythm and balance
2. They have great touch
3. They know how to hit the precise spot
4. They know how to grind it out
5. They know when to push, and when to pull
6. They know how to use their clubs
7. They take dead aim at their target
8. They have great endurance
9. They can hit it hard, or soft, depending on what is most desirable
10. They know how to finish a round

These kids are 18 and 19 and 20, and the momentum shifts on a dime, and it seems there is nothin they can do to stop it. It's amazing, I have seen it so many times, but in the end, we got the W, and that is all anybody sees as the season moves on. Nobody cares that we tried to blow a 21 point lead.

I'll predict ... LSU over Va Tech, 28-16.

(And, I am not necessarily a tiger fan, but) I doubt Va Tech has EVER been in an environment like they are about to witness, when they step into DEATH VALLEY.

I'm not being cruel, but I can guarantee ya, it's time to forget about what happened at V-Tech, once the whistle blows. I'm wondering/hoping they are kind enough though, for a moment to have a moment of silence at the front of the game, .. in remembrance of those who lost their lives.

I think they will.
The Tiger Fanz have been taking alot of heat for the ones who get too drunk and unruly at the games.
I hope they do the right thing.

Looks now as though the best 2 teams in the south, including Florida, and except for LSU only, are the two from SC, Clemson and USC. Think about it. ok, well, I forgot about the Gators, but who else is better than Clemson and USC? Not Miami, not Fl. State, not Va. Tech, nobody from NC or Virginia or Tennessee or Kentucky or Mississippi or Arkansas. Did I leave any southern states out? so right now, in the entire southeast, I say

'Bama hosting LSU sometime on the schedule, with 'Slick' Nick Saben at the helm and the LSU fanz still with alot of lemon y sal in those wounds... jejje...

If things go according to plan, I will be in Colombia in October. If so, you guys will need to keep me up to speed on college football. I hate to leave in October, as the weather is perfect here in SC during that month, but I gotta do what I gotta do, and the weather is always at least moderately good in Bogota, even though it is always funny to me that the people there always seem to complain about it. Can you imagine, from living in cajun country or SC, complaining about the weather there? They don't even need A\C or heat for G's sake.

GS, just because I am from the Palmetto state does not mean I am a Carolina fan. They are Clemson's primary rival, and we don't like 'em at all. It's often a brother versus brother brawl when they play, cause we all have family and friends with attachments to both schools.

I wouldn't be busting with so much pride, but HE'S ONLY 5'6" (ON A TALL DAY..jejjje), 165 lbs.(he just dropped about 5 lbs. since the season started and I don't know how, because he goes to his gf's house every night where her mom is servin up some of the down-home, Cajun Country Cookin... hummmh, good!)

Hope she'll be here for the Super Bowl Party in early February, and listening to so many of these scary comments on PBH, I hope she is here to stay, happily and forever. I feel you are in great shape, as you did your homework, were genuine, and followed both your heart and mind. You are nobody's fool. I wish you both much happiness.

(Every other high school team in south La is called.... what??? Lily??? three guesses....)
I think last year, we beat the Tigers at least 5 or 6 times ;)

Well, after all the bantering about defense...
The offense promptly through an intereception at the 10 yard line to open the game on the second play... and then BAM! down 0-6! with blocked kick. and as usual,.. the D and special teams made the plays to pull off the V, 31-12 and remain undefeated at 4-0.

It won't be easy.
But, it feels good for now :-))

Oh... damn. Wash almost pulled the trigger on USC. I think Washington (are they also the Cougars? No se) did enough damage, as the announcers said, to cause the sportwriters to move 'those Other Tigers' up to #1. (?)

.. :((
first loss, 10-13... other team scored with about 3 minutes remaining,... after we had lead 10-7, since about half way through the first quarter. Lots of blown chances, with some big plays. A weak offensive line will kill ya. We always have to have big plays on special teams/defense. Our defense was on the field all night. Not use to that. Obviously, the D we faced was quite good, as well. The first 'district game'. Probably one of the two toughest games we have all year, til playoffs.

Cal down by 3, 13 seconds left and no timeouts (second string QB), you kick a FG and try to win on OT right? After all by that time you are the unofficial #1, but no they try one more play that breaks down and instead of throwing it away the QB tries to run it in and gets tackled short and time runs out. I blame it on tedford for not justt going for the FG.

I look now in the top 25 and see no Cal, no South Carolina, no South Florida. All things eventually fall back to the mean, except with Kansas. Where did they come from? I guess they are going to have a strong season every 100 years, no matter what.

UL RAGIN CAJUNS COULD BE NUMBER ONE:

Who to blame for all of this?
In the wackiest of all college football seasons, there's plenty of blame to go around for this year's unexpected chaos. And very few teams have escaped unscathed.

In a year when Connecticut, a basketball school, has seven more wins than Notre Dame, nothing's a sure thing (re: Appalachian State).

The only thing for certain is that, given enough degrees of separation, this week's combatants in the Sun Belt Conference's battle for Louisiana could both be at the top of the BCS rankings, awaiting their shot at the national championship.
It could happen. After all, UL Monroe and LSU are all even in separation degrees. Both beat Alabama by seven points, and the Warhawks didn't need last-minute help or a deep-seated hatred of Nick Saban.

If the Cajuns should beat ULM this Saturday, on the home turf at Cajun Field, why couldn't they claim the number one ranking? Since nobody understands the BCS percentages anyway, we could probably slip the Warhawks or the Cajuns in there and no one would notice.

After all, ULM beat Alabama, after the Tide embarrassed Tennessee, which won by two touchdowns over Mississippi State, which beat Kentucky 31-14. And we know what happened when the top-ranked Tigers went to Lexington.

Hey, stranger things have happened this season. Six No. 2-ranked teams have lost games to heavy underdogs, Nebraska gave up 73 points to Kansas State, and K-State isn't even the best team in Kansas. The last time the Jayhawks were 11-0, Danny Manning was playing on the wing.

We need Al Gore to figure all this out. This is a lot more complex than global warming, and not far behind fixing the holiday traffic problem around the Mall of Acadiana.

There has to be a reason for the Big 12 and the Pac-10 not fulfilling bowl obligations, and South Florida being ranked by front-running poll voters as high as second nationally until common sense prevailed.

Hours after ApState topped Michigan during opening weekend - a harbinger of things to come in this season of no rhyme or reason - coaches blamed the scholarship limits. That lasted for four weeks until ApState lost to noted scholarship hoarder Wofford.

Many cited the spread offense as the culprit. In that offense, teams need only a handful of skill players and a passable offensive front to be competitive. It used to be that the spread was the domain of coaches wearing leis and flowered shirts, or those sentenced to live in West Virginia. Now it's not just June Jones and Rich Rodriguez that are driving defenses crazy.

To those blaming the spread, we cite Navy, the antithesis of everything new-school, the guys that beat Notre Dame after losing to Ball State and Wake Forest. But Navy would've lost to North Texas if the Mean Green could stop a stiff wind.

Maybe we should blame ESPN and every-night football. The more TV games that are out there, the more schools get exposure and the more elite high school athletes might consider going to Tulsa, now 8-3 and winners of four in a row - putting themselves only degrees of separation from unseating UL and ULM for the national crown.

Speaking of odd-night football, blame Middle Tennessee. The Blue Raiders were a few degrees of separation from a national title themselves, but that was before their football and basketball teams lost by a combined 158-47 within minutes of each other Tuesday night.

We could blame LSU for all this insanity. Les Miles' squad, when hitting on all cylinders, is two or three touchdowns better than anyone in the country. Yet the Tigers also lost to a basketball school and have perfected the art of needlessly making games close. And Miles still scares small children and talk-show callers with his giant hat, under which is enough cash for a contract buyout and a one-way plane ticket to Ann Arbor.

While we're at it, blame Saban. Everyone else is these days. By the way, there are online sites where you can order "Mike Shula Never Lost to a Sun Belt Team" T-shirts.

It was Saban who added to all this turmoil when he managed to bring the nation's most bowl-successful program in history down to Sun Belt level. Those that were shocked at UL Monroe's 21-14 win over the Crimson Tide - and the fact that a $4 million coach could lose to one making $150K - shouldn't be. It's been that kind of season.

So after you finish a third helping of dressing today and your holiday shopping Friday, come to Cajun Field Saturday and watch either the Cajuns or the Warhawks stay alive for the national championship. That is, until Florida International wins and rightly claims its share of the title.

Destrehan thumps Acadiana for 5A title

Click Image to Enlarge The Advocate/ADVOCATE STAFF PHOTO BY MARK SALTZ
Destrehan’s Demaris Johnson runs for a big gain against Acadiana in the Class 5A state title game Saturday.

FOOTBALL

By ROBIN FAMBROUGH
Advocate sportswriter
Published: Dec 9, 2007 - Page: 15C

NEW ORLEANS — Jordan Jefferson and Demaris Johnson made big plays all year long for Destrehan High. Anyone who thought a state championship game would be the exception was sadly mistaken.

The duo combined for an exceptional 436 total yards and five touchdowns, leading Destrehan to a 41-21 victory over Acadiana in the 5A title game that concluded the Louisiana High School Athletic Association-State Farm Prep Classic on Saturday night at the Louisiana Superdome.

Jefferson, who is committed to LSU, competed 10 of 13 passes for 220 yards and two touchdowns. The 6-foot-4 quarterback also had 32 rushing yards and one TD.

Johnson, a 5-9 receiver, finished with 94 yards rushing on five carries, including scoring runs of 12 and 16 yards. He also had four catches for 44 yards as Destrehan (15-0) finished the season unbeaten and won its first state title since 1973. John was voted the title-game’s Outstanding Player for Destrehan.

Jonathan Morvant was voted Acadiana’s Outstanding Player after going 4-of-7 for 58 yards passig and rushing for 48 yards. John Dean added 79 yards rushing and a TD for AHS. It was the third straight title-game appearance for Acadiana, the 2006 5A champion.

The Destrehan offense worked with computer-like precision from the opening kickoff. The Wildcats scored on all four of their first-half possessions, building a 28-14 lead.

Johnson took a lateral from Jefferson and darted down the right sideline and back across the middle, gaining 46 yards, on the game’s third scrimmage play. Jefferson scored on a 1-yard run and led 6-0 with 8:45 still left in the first quarter.

Acadiana countered with its best drive of the half. The Wreckin’ Rams held the ball for 9:21 during a 16-play, 70-yard drive. Morvant’s 14-yard pass to Keaven Breaux that gave AHS a first-and-goal at the DHS 5 was the only play of 10 yards or more.

Dean scored on a 1-yard run at the 11:24 mark of the second quarter and Drew Alleman tacked on the point-after kick to give Acadiana a 7-6 lead.

Then back came Destrehan. The Wildcats covered 80 yards in nine plays. Jefferson completed a 25-yard pass to Johnson, who later scored on a 12-yard run. Jefferson’s two-point PAT pass to Tim Molton gave Destrehan a 14-7 lead with 8:14 remaining in the half.

Next came an injury that sidelined Acadiana’s Morvant. On the Rams first play after the ensuing kick Morvant was injured when he was sacked by DHS’ Jerico Nelson.

As a result, the Wildcats forced Acadiana to punt out of its own end zone. Destrehan took over at midfield and six again six plays later. Johnson ran 19 yards on a reverse, setting up a 10-yard scoring run by Nelson, making it a 20-7 game with 3:33 left in the half.

Acadiana came up with a big play when back-up quarterback Louis Hollier tossed a 54-yard TD pass to Desmond Sam. Alleman’s PAT pulled the Rams to within six, at 20-14, with 1:44 to go in the half.

Jefferson quickly countered, lofting an 80-yard TD pass to Molton, another player committed to LSU, on the next scrimmage play. Jefferson also ran for the PAT and Destrehan had a 28-14 lead just 11 seconds after Acadiana’s score, making it 28-14.

Morvant came back in the second half and engineered a 61-yard TD drive to open the half. Morvant’s 10-yard TD pass to Spencer Trahan pulled the Rams within seven, at 28-21, with 6:58 left in the third quarter.

It looked like the Destrehan would be forced to give the ball up quickly on its next possession. But Molton’s punt bounced backwards and hit an Acadiana player, making it a live ball. Destrehan’s Brian Blackwell recovered at the AHS 37, leading to a 33-yard Jefferson to Brandon Armstrong, giving the Wildcats a 35-21 lead at the 3:17 mark in the third quarter.

Destrehan was hardly done yet. The Wildcats got the ball right back after an Acadiana punt to midfield. A 34-yard run by Jefferson set up Johnson’s 16-yard TD run on a reverse with 49 seconds left that made it a 41-21 game.

The best part is when they show John Kerry campaining in Ohio and saying "there nothing like OSU foorball" and getting a huge cheer, then he goes a few miles across the border and doesn't realize he's in Mich and uses the same line and the whole stadium starts booing him, halirious, and if you listen closely you can hear somebody calling him a foken moron.

After week one, the SEC seems redeemed, and USC seems renowned, but I don't buy that this will all play out. I am thinking that the ACC is not as bad as it seems, that the SEC is the best conference, with the PAC 10 second, and that those trends change every few years.
The mid majors as possible contenders seems lost now, but that will likely come back up. Remember Boise State stunning Oklahoma a couple of years ago?

Final Score, BillyB: Bama 41, GA 30

I was pulling for Bama b/c they were ranked lower... and b/c GA is in the same division as my Vols. But considering how the Vols are playing, GA and FL's loss might not really mean anything for us. ha

so, as I see it, having been not in the country lately, but in the pbh country, that Ok. destroyed the unbeatable Texas Tech team, and that opened up a can of worms. So then, as of now, Clemson, at 6-5, is likely not in the national championship picture, right?
so it will be the best of the Big 12, Okies or Tech or Texas, versus the winner of the Alabama-florida game, no?

things are getting interesting now, after today, as far as the national championship pic, because of this silly BCS system.

On a lighter note, I noticed not only did Clemson beat South Carolina, as per usual, but that 3 of the 4 lowly ACC vs. mighty SEC matchups today were won by the ACC teams. Wake over Vandy, Clemson over USC, Ga. Tech over Georgia. Only Fl. State lost to Florida. Hmmm...

BCS DECLARES GERMANY WINNER OF WORLD WAR II US Ranked 4th

For any college football fans out there:

After determining the Big-12 championship game participants the BCS
computers were put to work on other major contests and today
the BCS
declared Germany to be the winner of World War II.

"Germany put together an incredible number of victories beginning with
the annexation of Austria and the Sudetenland and continuing on into
conference play with
defeats of Poland, France, Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Belgium and the Netherlands. Their only losses came against the US and
Russia; however considering their entire body of work--including an
incredibly tough Strength of Schedule--our computers deemed them worthy
of the #1 ranking."

Questioned about the #4 ranking of the United States the BCS
commissioner stated "The US only had two major victories--Japan and
Germany. The computer models, unlike humans, aren't influenced
by
head-to-head contests--they consider each contest to be only a single,
equally-weighted event."

German Chancellor Adolph Hiter said "Yes, we lost to the US; but we
defeated #2 ranked France in only 6 weeks." Herr Hitler
has been
criticized for seeking dramatic victories to earn 'style points' to
enhance Germany's rankings. Hitler protested "Our contest with Poland
was in doubt until the final day and the conditions in Norway were
incredibly challenging and demanded the application of additional
forces."

The French ranking has also come under scrutiny. The BCS commented
"France had a single loss against Germany and following a preseason #1
ranking they only fell to #2."

Japan was ranked #3 with victories including Manchuria, Borneo and the
Philippines.

This, after me making a big deal about needing to see the game, and missing the big family bbq, likely landing me, yet again, in my newly adopted family's dawghouse.
I have never seen the city so quiet as on this trip, as in hardly anybody in the streets, and no traffic. No taxis to be had on New Year's Eve. I saw a few parked outside of houses, but the drivers were inside dancing to salsa, vallenato and merengue music with their families.

Our best player, CJ Spiller, announced today that he is returning for his senior sesson. I wiould have jumped to the pro league, if I were him, but for whatever reason, he is returning.

Purnell, the coach, has done better every year here, and everybody loves to see progress. Competing with the UNC's and Dukes in the ACC is always tough, but I am very impressed with Purnell,.

The hallowed Dukies obviously got messed up. Clemson was much more athletic than them, and they pressed them the whole game on defense. Duke's 5 star white boys could not handle it, and besides that, Clemson was more accurate in shooting 3's. This is not your father's Duke. I can't believe they were ranked number 1 last week, based on their previous reputation, which has been stellar, no doubt, but as of now, they were totally smacked down.
They'll be back, no doubt, but Clemson really has an excellent coach, to do what he has done there is amazing.

By week 2 or 3, we will know who are the contenders, who are the surprises, who are the diappointments. I would love to see either a midmajor, or a usually middle of the pack big conference team make a run for it, maybe even win it all.

I think we will see, over the next couple of years, that the ACC is catching up on them in football, as well. Miami and Florida State are getting closer to their old selves, VA.

Add 14 to 20 points.

Like I said,..... Florida could RUN AWAY with it.

Realistically,... .it wasn't because of any greatness on the part of the Tigers' defense, that Florida was held to 13 points.

A 10-point victory under any circumstances at the HOME FIELD of the No. 4 team in the nation is good in anyone's book, any time, under any given circumstances.

Florida and Alabama are the class of that conference, which is the best conference in the land, I hate to admit, as an ACC fan. In basketball, the roles are reversed, but I accept, not willingly, that this, now, is about football, and the SEC is definitely better than the ACC.

FEATURED GAME
No. 9 LSU at No. 3 Alabama
Saturday, 3:30 p.m. ET
Line: Alabama -9

Alabama still has a nasty, scary road rivalry game at Auburn to deal with, along with a road trip to Mississippi State, and LSU has to go to Ole Miss and has an always tough (for LSU) game against Arkansas, but for all intents and purposes, this should decide the SEC West title and it will go a long way to further the national title discussion. Either Alabama will win and will keep careening to a clash with Florida for the SEC title, and the BCS Championship game, or LSU will pull off a huge road victory and will suddenly be in the hunt for the national title.

LSU blasted Tulane, 42-0, last week getting huge production on the ground and an efficient day from the passing attack, but that was Tulane. One of Conference USA's lowest bottom-feeders wasn't going to have a chance against the Tigers' second team, much less the top players, and that wasn't necessarily a great indication of what LSU could really do. However, the 31-10 win over Auburn a few weeks earlier showed that things might be jelling and coming together at the right time, and this might be the perfect chance to catch a Bama team that's been begging to be tagged.

With two weeks off, the Tide will be rested and ready coming off the scary 12-10 win over Tennessee thanks to a blocked field goal. The 20-6 win over South Carolina wasn't impressive, the offense sputtered a bit in a 22-3 win over Ole Miss, and Kentucky was the better team for roughly 40 minutes in a 38-20 Tide win. Style points don't matter, Alabama will play for the national title if its 13-0, but it's time for the team to start playing more like a true national title contender. Florida flexed its muscles last week against Georgia, and now it's Bama's turn. If not, LSU will go from being an afterthought in the SEC title chase to being in the thick of the national title discussion.

Why LSU might win:

The Alabama passing game went from excellent, to mediocre, to awful. QB Greg McElroy threw for over 200 yards in each of the first four games, with his high moment the 17-of-24, 291-yard, three-touchdown day against Arkansas. Ever since then, the offense has had to rely only on the running game, which isn't a bad thing, and the great defense, but McElroy has become a liability and the team has had to hide him. Sound familiar, LSU fans? It's not like last year for the Tigers, when they had to do everything possible to keep their quarterbacks from throwing thanks to Jarrett Lee's penchant for giving the ball to the other team, but Bama isn't exactly letting McElroy take any chances. The LSU defense has been the real deal, even though the line isn't playing anywhere close to the high standards the program usually sets. The Tide isn't going to find its passing groove this week.

goin_south says on Nov 6, 2009, 21:45:

Who to watch: LSU can't win this game, or even stay in it, unless QB Jordan Jefferson comes up with a whopper of a performance. The sophomore has been good so far, completing 64% of his passes with 11 touchdowns and just four interceptions, but he hasn't been special. He hasn't been bad, and he certainly hasn't been the reason the offense has lacked a consistent pop (the offensive line is to blame), but he's being asked to carry the offense when the ground game doesn't work. The ground game isn't going to work. Jefferson is going to have to challenge the Tide secondary and he can't play it close to the vest and hope for the best. That didn't work against Florida and it's not going to work against 'Bama. The Tide can be beaten, but only if Jefferson and LSU are willing to take a few risks.
