The scoreboard may need that 3rd digit when A&M plays AUB.

A&M's defense wasn't mind blowing.

Yea, but Idaho State is a TERRIBLE team and the yards given up, no takeways ect. is a bit concerning. Something close to a shutout was almost expected, save for some type of big play. Those touchdowns were drives, they also had a FG blocked.

Offense looked great, as it should against lower end FCS talent. Special teams were off the charts good. 2 punts inside the 5, blocked FG, returned punt for TD, returned KO for TD.

I get it. Been there myself which was part of my LOL.

IDK anything about ISU or the game other than your reaction and the score. Take solace in first game bugs to work out and perhaps ISU was doing stuff(blocking schemes, formations, etc.) a little different than Utah had prepared for.(very common first game)

Yea....I'm just panicked over another 5 win season.... Have to beat Fresno and Michigan, because their PAC12 schedule is BRUTAL.

Never been so focused on "just 6 wins" in my life....

nope, and usce shot themselves in the foot w/ a bunch of missed plays on their part. a&m will have to win shootouts, but they've got a lot of bullets.

welcome to the club. i read one B1G preview that said we may flip the 3-5 conf record from last season though. that would be fun, but i don't see it when i look at our schedule.

Wow fUCLA. Survived it, but anyone still want to call Hundley a Heisman "frontrunner"?

it was only an fcs team, and not a good one at that, but my bobcats looked fantastic on offense last night. 6 straight drives w/ a td, 8 straight scoring, 10 of 11 drives scored, 9 of 11 were for td.

yes, it was a weak opponent, but the hurry up offense was executed incredibly well from the sidelines, and on the field. couple of hiccups - 1 false start, 2 to, 1 or 2 sacks taken because it was obvious we weren't all on the same page, but overall it was pretty incredible to watch, especially considering fran's offensive history.

also, our new uniforms looked damn good!

I hate playing Navy. Their offense is so odd to prepare for, but I'm curious as to why more teams don't run that offense.

If he can stay healthy I think Todd Gurley will be the heisman winner.

the defense is pretty good, w/ a chance to be dominant, but i don't know that swoopes is anywhere near ready for this level of a game. how good is the byu run defense? i have a feeling the horns will run, run, run - they were 40/34 run/pass vs unt. wouldn't shock me to see 50/25.


here's bobcat highlights

D is worse than last year... Offense is better.

You'd think that sounds good, other than the Kitty offense ran roughshod on the Longhorns last year. How that happened, I'm still at a loss....but so was Manny.

by the way - this year when you are watching rsf jt barrett be awesome for the buckeyes and rsf swoopes struggle with the longhorns, understand why texas fans were so angry w/ mack brown.

Switched a year ago and actually like Dish better.... Well, admittedly I still don't know where to find some channels.

My Bro and Mom have Dish and I think I don't like it based on those small sample sizes.

What do you like better?

I love the special channels that DirecTV has for Major Golf Championships and the Score Guide(although that hasn't been working well for me lately Confused )

Seem like the channels are grouped well. Love the APPs, hopper kicks tail, MUCH BIGGER DVR. I can't think of one thing DirecTV had that I miss. I was always very happy with DTV, only reason I switched was PAC12 Network.

Who knows, I may switch back to get updated gear & discounts, if DTV had PAC12 Network when my contract ended. Some of what I really like w/ the change may just be newer equipment? But I'd recommend Dish to anyone.

I'd love to know the gritty details here, it's pretty clear Scott has been able to drive cash to the conference and increase brand identity. So one has to wonder what is really driving the delay and what other factors are out there that are driving this decision.

What is it about the DTV deal that just doesn't make economic sense to reach so many more viewers. Will taking a lower margin with DTV erode the next series of contracts? Are there additional incentives that Dish/Comcast etc. are placing in their attempt to win market-share from DTV?

^ the back to college commercial is Awesome.(EJ)

The Ducks haven't had a competative game on Pac12 network yet. I am sure that will happen. To the Sportsbar!!!!!

From what I can gather it is pure $$$ that is the problem. Pac12 network wants more than DirecTV will pay for the channels. To be perfectly honest I don't blame them, West Coast fans are a fickle bunch and won't die hard consume shitty games.

For my birthday in 6th grade ('88 ) I got his book just after it came out. I was stoked, I had just started playing football the year prior and he had just finished is rookie season.

I was thinking about this on Saturday as I flipped through games on P12, B10, Longhorn, ESPNU, ESPN, ESPN2, NBC, and FS1.

Why do you still have DirectTV? Laughing
