Bowl Gamethread - Screw it, all the bowls.

The Steve Miller Band can fill the Super Dome?

 
They're touring with Journey. THAT'S how you pack 80,000 people in.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

The announcers are taking up bamas run defense, but OSU shut down some great runners this year. Sims is turning into a pumpkin without a run game.

This is fun!

 

[Ed Hillel]

Game isn't close to over yet. Not in college.

Def. made that up. According to his site, he's playing in NOLA on March 8 @ the smoothie king center (with journey & tower of power)

[LuckyBen]

It all goes back to that unsportsmanlike penalty when Bama was up 21-6

 

[Luis Taint]

Corey Smith, I would like you to meet your new teammate Matt Slater

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Stop. Saban should have taught #21 to block instead of imitate a matador.

 

[steveluck7]

Face got more holes than this 'Bama defense

Meth is a helluva drug

 

[Al Zarilla]

They couldn't find us a Bama coed to rival the OSU chick. Spoiled kid with stained pits. Ugh.

Would. Not. Bang.

 

[Greg29fan]

Huge response by the Tide

 

[ifmanis5]

Alive.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Good drive.

And by that I mean it was dumb.

 

[shawnrbu]

Imagine how good this game would be if Musburger was calling it.
 
Does anybody agree with ESPN demoting him this far down the totem pole?

 

[Fred in Lynn]

The FB really laid a devastating block leading Sims in on that run.

 

[Kremlin Watcher]

Much more competitive than we (well, I) thought it would be.
 
Less miffed now at OSU's inclusion to TCU's exclusion.

 

[Al Zarilla]

You don't think he'll be doing the title game?

 

[SoxFanInPdx]

Having a heart attack here. C'mon Bama.

 

[shawnrbu]

You don't think he'll be doing the title game?

 
Fowler and Herbie are the A Team.

Fowler and Herbstreit are doing the title game (bottom of the page)

I know a few OSU fans and they all hate him. 

 

[Kremlin Watcher]

Think Urban will do a Mack Brown here (a la VY) and just let the game ride on Jones' back?

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
Fowler and Herbie are the A Team. 

Oh.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Not understanding that, Todd. Do they forget how to tackle if they don't prepare for it?

 

[LuckyBen]

Musberger blew his chance when he sounded like an old perv talking about McCarrons girlfriend.

 

[riboflav]

Sean McDonough should be calling the game but I understand why he's not.

 

[soxhop411]

 
 

 

[Ed Hillel]

Punter Could have run for 30 yards if he kept it.

 

[smokin joe wood]

Sean McDonough should be calling the game but I understand why he's not.

 
For the same (sort of) reason Musburger isn't. You have to play by ESPN's rules and McDonough has never beed good at that. 

 

[mascho]

Yup. Dude's baggage is basically why he's not Joe Buck. Really talented commentator.

He did radio of the Rose Bowl

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Haha, that was anything but a rifle

 

[Greg29fan]

OSU girl is happy now

 

[Al Zarilla]

Times change. Up until maybe 1995, when ABC did a lot of college games, they had people scanning the stands for the hottest babes and would put cameras on them at every opportunity. Brent would probably have gotten just a slap on the wrist back then.

 

[Drocca]

Makes me miss those Friday night Red Sox game. Remy's thing got old a while ago, but McDonough and him on Friday's were a lot of fun.

 

[Ed Hillel]

OSU girl is happy now

Haha I saw that.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Never seen a punt caught like that.

 

[LuckyBen]

Haha, that was anything but a rifle

Yeah, Sims will be great for Saban, but he needs to start thinking about his next position.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That McCoughnegy commercial was an intentional caricature, I hope.

This happens in every single sports TV truck in America. If there are good looking women in the venue, every camera op is shooting them. WGN is probably the most famous example of continuously punching them live. 

 

[StuckOnYouk]

I only heard him for a bout 15 minutes but thought he was outstanding. Love the fact he has no issues calling out the Refs relentlessly when its due.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Nice play action in the empty backfield.

 

[riboflav]

It's kind of weird for such a successful actor to be doing shitty car commercials. C'mon Matthew.

 
Ya. Just saw The Wolf of Wall Street today. I kept hoping he'd make another appearance in the film, but alas, it was just a cameo.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Dude has no idea where he is.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

I really hope his night is over, for his own sake

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Good no call

 

[Greg29fan]

That's DPI

 

[Ed Hillel]

That's PI.
