    The good
    • A Gator win is always good by me
      Oklahoma big win over what was supposed to be a good FSU team
      Denard Robinson, over 500 yards of offense leading Michigan to a last minute win
      S. Carolina over Georgia. They look like the real deal.
      Alabama looking awesome.
      Tennessee is looking good against a top 10 Oregon

    The Bad
    • The ACC has taken it on the chin. Va Tech loses to James Madison
      Miami loses to Ohio State
      FSU gets wiped out by Oklahoma
      Georgia Tech loses to Kansas

    The Ugly
    • The ACC
      My Fantasy Baseball team floundering toward the end of the season.

    Hey, I am sure this is an incomplete list and maybe you don't agree?

    I also know it is slanted to the South, so feel free to add good and bad from around the country.

    Your opinion.

    Add Oregon to the good. They are a deep team that keeps coming at you.

    JO'Co, what's going on with UCLA? I though Slick Rick would get them turned around.

    Bad...

    After losing their best RB for the season, Purdue now loses their best receiver, who was maybe going all B10 this year. Out with torn ACL and MCL. Hope it doesn't end his chances to try out for the NFL.

    UCLA is in bad shape. Slick Rick finishes 8th every year and he'll be lucky to finish that high this season. The Bruins were booed by the home crowd throughout their game against Stanford at the Rose Bowl yesterday and that's always bad. The last two UCLA coaches who were booed at home were fired at the end of the season. While the team has had a ton of injuries, the excuses don't add up. They can't even line up without falling down or looking confused. At this rate, the only local recruit the Bruins can count on signing is Loyola High School's Jerry Neuheisel...

    The natives are restless in LA and the tom-toms are beginning to beat their warning...

    Bill did you post this before halftime of the game? 8) 8)

    RE: UCLA I really thought that With Slick Rick and Chow that by this year he would have a very good team, esp on offense. I don't think I've ever seen a coach grab a mic before and apologize to the fans. He'd better get it turned around fast as a couple of pretty decent Texas teams are headed his way.

    Yes I did Terry.

    So I guess I would have to revise my Tennessee analysis. I'll give them a good for the first half but would have to give them a bad for the second half.

    I continue to think however that they may have found a good coach.

    Let me also say that USC no doubt belongs in the bad category, but I'll put their performance, or lack of it, it my personal great category. :)

    I can add to the "ugly"...

    During the first half of our game with La Tech, the Aggies fumbled three punts... IN A ROW!!!

    And then... after the last of them (at our 1 yd line) led to a TD, we also fumbled the kickoff return!!

    Terry O: we did!
    Now it's kinda done by committee.
    The actual special teams coverages weren't bad, it was just the return guys.

    The usual guy is out with an injury, so we tried soph Dustin Harris who is scary good - when he catches the ball.
    He fumbled his first attempt, so we switched to a more "sure-handed" guy, who promptly fumbled the next two!!
    In the second half they let Harris have another try, and he took it to the house to atone for his earlier fumble.

    BuckT: I think that might cause a black hole to form... from all the SUCKING! :wink:
