I also enjoyed the beta

It is seriously awesome that it was him

I thought you knew better knapp. The SEC is better than the NFL. The last place team's 4th string cornerback is better than Dennard. That skews the stats against receivers. If he were in the Big 10 he'd have 30 catches per game.

Thanks guys The PS3 crashes quite a bit while playing. Apparently they added a patch on November 29 to fix crashes that happen when you start getting bigger save files, but it made it so more crashes happen earlier in the game. Hopefully they'll fix that soon.

I caved and bought it. I made the mistake of killing a chicken in the first town and then the quest person tried to kill me. The thing they did that's horrible for people like me is left so much lootable crap laying around and I just have to make sure I look at all of it, just in case. I mean, who knows how useful this piece of lint will be later on. The only gripe (it's really minor) is I can't look at the front of my character. Or am I just missing something? I want to see what my armor looks like

Ya, I've heard from about 5 people that Skyrim is awesome (but I haven't played it myself)

For some reason it irritates me when people bring up the "but if it's 4 teams the 5th team will complain" argument. Partially because it's brought up all the time. It's not NEAR as big of a deal as that 3rd ranked team not getting a chance. The 5th ranked team not getting into a playoff is barely a comparable situation, imo. You can be pretty certain with a 4 team playoff that at least the top 2 or 3 teams who've had the best seasons are getting a chance and that's what's most important. Even when people bring up an 8 team playoff, people still bring up how it's unfair to the 9th team. Any playoff is better than none, imo. Four teams seems like it would be the best because the BCS could keep their name and their bowls. They could have a rotation like they do now. Each year one bowl would get the best game that isn't part of the playoff, then rotate. All other bowls could still exist. The only problem here is the Rose Bowl tradition. The one reason I like not having a playoff is because every game counts. If we have a 4 team playoff, I think it will still feel like every game counts.

I mean, replying to a topic about a Star Wars game is +10 nerdiness. Making the topic is +15. I sacrifice way too much for you people. Um, anyway... I'm going to play it. I play about one game a year and KOTOR I & II are in my top 5 so I have no choice. I'm probably going to play a chiss-something. Probably an Imperial Agent Operative Medic. (+5 for knowledge). Which means I also need to finally read the first Zahn Star Wars book because apparently the main bad guy is a Chiss (that has to be a +20).

we lost our chance for most attractive coaching staff when he left.

It was 3 de-effing-grees when I left this morning. You must be off your rocker.

Interesting

As much as I'd like it I just don't see it. It would be hard working for the guy who was hired over you.

I for one cannot believe we're still talking about Carl Pelini when some screwball just said that Fight Club stars Ben Affleck, gets a little long, but it's a "pretty good movie." *shakes head in dismay* and I don't care if he's already been corrected! It's unforgivable!

I'll be boycotting the championship game, which won't be hard because I have no interest in watching them play again.

He's Steve Spurrier. He's just trying to be humble by saying he's not important.

My favorite sport is Badminton.

RG3 is far more valuable than Ball, imo.

OSU was 22 points from jumping Alabama in the Coaches' Poll.

here's a link to last week's BCS standings (which includes the points): http://sportsillustr...ncaa/polls/bcs/ OSU's .0839 behind Alabama. In the Harris & Coaches they're .034 & .031 behind the 3rd ranked teams (VT & Stanford). Let's pretend they only move up to 3rd and have the same # of points as those 3rd ranked teams currently do. That would require Alabama losing NO 2nd place votes (and I've already read a couple articles of people saying they're changing their votes). They'll be .0189 behind Alabama. If they move into 2nd in one or the other of the polls I think they get the spot. Or if they move enough in the computer polls. Or if Alabama loses *enough* 2nd place votes.

Here's the e-mail OSU sent out to voters: http://www.warblogle...rTheCowboys.pdf Also, OSU is ranked 5th in the Harris poll too, which will definitely change. They're .08 behind Alabama. In the Harris they're .12 points behind Alabama, in the coaches they're .11 points behind Alabama. In the Harris they're .04 behind Stanford and coaches they're .03 behind Stanford. I feel almost certain they'll move ahead of Stanford. So that's .07 of the .08 they need. Alabama will gain 0 points.

Husker fans do not like "the ol' ball coach". Nothing personal but if you go to the game, expect to see the signs!! I can't dislike someone we beat 62-24.

I remember loads of people changing their votes about 14 years ago with two teams who had the same records. Very few people want to watch Alabama vs LSU again, and now OSU has given the voters an excuse for moving OSU ahead of Alabama without having to feel too guilty about it. I think it's very possible.

I don't think Alabama will be going to the national championship game. Some people will change their votes. In addition to that, Virginia Tech is ranked #3 in the USA Today Poll. They are losing by 21 points right now. So Oklahoma State will move up at least 1 rank there. That could help push them over. I also think they may move ahead of Stanford in that poll after this.

No. It's not. But I will still accept your apology.
