I agree with you Bart. I think Oklahoma could potentially go 12-0, with 10-2 a great possibility. An early road trip to Oregon will not be easy and of course the Oct. 7th game against Texas. You also have a 2 roadgame stretch against Texas Tech an Missouri that will not be easy. Bomar has to step up and we all know what Adrian Peterson is capable of.
Hey Tennesse fans....have you seen this?!?!? The founder of Pilot Corp. and his wife have given $32.5 million to the University of Tennessee, the largest individual gift the university has ever received. I think the new Smokey mascot may get a new game sweater with this kind of cash! Here is the link to the story.

Oklahoma is looking strong in spring practice -- QB Bomar is poised for a breakout season along with superstud Adrian Peterson (AD). Defense going to be improved with a ton of returning guys plus a great recruiting class. I can't want for the season to start.

I see what you mean. Come on guys....lets talk some College Football. After all, it is only the greatest sport in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!

TARP65 - Men's group and we allowed Football to fall to the bottom of the Guy's Lounge subjects to talk about. It should be at the top. We should always have something to discuss in football. Do you not agree?

Did you guys see this? Mississippi State football coach Sylvester Croom indefinitely suspended six players Tuesday after they were charged with assaulting a police officer last weekend. Not many details but it appears they were out on the town and got involved in a fight.
I also thought this was interesting. The NCAA plans to conduct drug testing on Division I athletes this summer. They reserve the right to do it on campus, at their homes, or even on their jobs. I don't know if it is random or if they plan on testing everyone.
I am hoping to get to go to Georgias Spring Game this Saturday and check out the QB competition but it looks like the weather may not cooperate. Anyone else seen or planning to see any spring practice? How 'bout sharing any local news on your teams progress.....
I know this site is for football, but I wanted to give a Big Congratulations to my Gator friends on winning the Basketball Tournament. They were totally dominant.
What does your last post mean ROCETOP?????

Georgia lost a great Bulldog last week when Bill Hartman died at the age of 90 last Thursday. He was an All-American fullback and Georgia's captain in 1937 and briefly played for the Washington Redskins before becoming the Bulldogs' backfield coach. He held that position from 1939-56 and was elected into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1984. He was very active here locally in the Athens community and the University. He will be missed.
It is also a sad time for Vol fans. If you haven't heard, Smokey VIII died Friday of health problems. Georgia fans love to poke fun at Smokey as well as they poke fun at our mascot UGA.....but the SEC is family and we mourn the loss of this great animal. I am sure he will be replaced with another fine speciman. As we say about our fallen mascots, "Damn good dawg."

| yeah it gets interesting in a fun way. we pester each other pretty good over it. evry once in a whilr just for laughs I'll say "Go Blue" just for kicks even during the off season. lol
|

|
|
| Well our young qb got arrested agian for underage drinking. Rumors are really kicking up about our new juco transfer getting some reps this year and maybe replacing Bomar at the helm. Some kids just have to learn the hardway. You would think that being a starter for a top ten team would be enough to make them want to walk a straight line. I hate to see young kids blow great oppertunities.

| I had to chuckle about the Big East, often the SEC teams that I followed deliberately scheduled teams from the Big East so as to tune up for important games and pad their standings some. But you DO have to respect West Virginia

i do agree the ND agreement is ridiculous. the big east also does not deserve a bcs bid either. aside from wvu, the big east is notoriously a soft conference.
the big ten has been recruiting ND for a long long time...but there is no way nd will give up the big lucrative contracts NBC gives them. too much on the line financially for them to forfeit and join a conference. sad, but it's the way college athletics works.
|
|
|
|
| Do you guys think the big east deserves a lock BCS bid. Their division seems really weak. I do like west virg this year, they sure looked good to end the season. But other than them the division is a joke. Another lock which is a bit unfair is the agreement between Notre Dame and the BCS, ND just needs to join the big 10 or big east, they would lose some of their fabled rivalries but no conference is hurting them.

| Been trying to tell a lot of Texans that lately. I suppose that after the Rose Bowl we are understandably a mite cocky but comparing not only the talent levels of Oklahoma and U.T. but the recruiting classes I have to maintain that I like the Sooners long term prospects some better.
|
|
|
|
| As I said before, keep a close eye on Oklahoma. If they pass their early test then watch out. They could contend right up until the end. Never forget that Bob Stoops is a great coach and Oklahoma has great athletes.
|
|
|
|
| Oklahoma has a young core too. Watching them all season you could see our young quartback gain confidense every game. Stoops stuck with him all year even after startin 2-3. We only lost 1 game after that point, and of those 4 loses all 4 teams were ranked in the top 25. Tenn never let there qb get any time of rhythm. Thats why they were not winning close games.
|
|
|
|
| you have got a young core, which will come through once they realize they can succeed ath this level. you will be set for a while after that.
|
|
|
|
| I agree that you need a captain at quarterback that the team can depend on. That is the VOLS Archilles Heel right now. We are looking for another Payton Manning, and hope we find him soon.
|
|
|
|
| I rhink the Vols will finish no better than 3rd in the sec. I like LSU to win the title. Tenn never seems to get rolling the past few years. i dont think you can win with a qb by commitee system. No clear captian at the helm really hurts your team and breaks up the flow of the game.

The local paper in Athens said the coaches are very pleased with the Bulldogs spring practice so far. Should be an interesting competition at QB with 4 capable starters. They are focusing on run defense (UGA was 52nd in the nation last year) and dropped passes. Those two areas can keep you out of the top 10!!!!
Fellas, let us know how your teams spring practice is going.
