College FOOTBALL is back!!!!!! September 2007

It took me this long to recover from the loss. At least it was not a humiliating stomp like last year. Turning point: With the score 10-10, Robiskie dropped pass for touchdown followed by blocked FG resulting in LSU possession on their own 34 with 11 minutes left in the first half. Instead of 17-10 OSU, 3 1/2 minutes later it was 17-10 LSU. Game over. You could see the momentum change and the wind go out of the Buckeyes sails. From the point of the blocked FG, LSU scored two TDs while the Bucks threw an interception and punted. Like I said, game over.

To seal the defeat, on LSU's first drive of the 2nd half they turned 4th & 23 on the LSU 40 into 1st & 10 on the OSU 29 due to stupid mistakes resulting in penalties, resulting in 31-10 LSU 5 minutes into the half. This game wasn't won by that renowned SEC speed, it was lost by poor execution and mistakes by OSU. This wasn't the team that beat Michigan; it was the team that lost to Illinois.

Had OSU been able to score on either of their possessions after the interception and score to make it 31-17 in the 3rd quarter, they might have been able to climb back into the game. As it was, I don't think they ever recovered from the blowing the chance to stop LSU and swing the momentum back early in the 3rd quarter.

I'll give LSU credit: they showed up to play. Unfortunately, for the second year in a row, the Ohio State team that showed up did not play like they really wanted to win a National Championship.

For those of us in the Big-10 area we have had a time with the "Big Ten Network" and Comcast going at it. If you are a Comcast subscriber you can't get the BTN, however it is offered on Dish and Direct TV.
Now I hear that there is going to be a SEC Network next year. And you know what? Comcast is going to offer it on BASIC cable in the Big Ten area!!!!! Once again the speed of the SEC beats the Big Ten:lmao:

That's why i switched to Dish last September. The only Ohio State game I missed was Youngstown State; they started carrying BTN the evening before the 2nd game.

The BTN is the most rediculous thing out there, and from what I hear it is a giant flop! Maybe this will put Delaney back in his place. I live in Ohio in Buckeyeville and my cable company has 3 versions of the BTN and I don't watch any of them. The last thing I want is every conference having their own TV network, do we all really want SECTV, BEN, ACCN, PTN floating on our channel line-up?

Well, not really, but "GA Bulldog Network TV" about an hour or 2 each week, plus the game on Saturday, would be nice.

Sure. We have a Fox Sports channel for just about every geographic area (New England, Ohio, etc.), in addition to the umpteen different ESPN channels and other various more specialized channels (CSTV, Speed, Golf Network, GolTV, etc.) - why not have one for each conference. It just means more sports programming, and that's a plus as far as I'm concerned.

It also increases the chances that you'll get to see those games (like Ohio State vs. Kent State) that aren't going to be televised otherwise.

My whole point about every conference having a channel. I think we have reached the point of saturation. We already have 20 ESPN's and 20 Fox's. I don't want to see another 20 conference channels (you know the Sun Belt will get on board). I want my bandwidth filled with things I would want to watch, not 3 hours of men's fencing from Arizona.

Um, is women's beach volleyball a collegiate sport?
