has decided that being ranked isn’t important any more.

You stealing my post?

Haha, just kidding. It’s funny that we posted basically the same thing at the same time.

Look me up on youtube sometime...if you're really bored.

West Virgina fell last night, and it doesn't look good for Arkansas

If we win today, we’ll jump both those schools in the rankings.

Clemson has its hands full with NC 24-17

And Mizzu is running all over Okie st. in a close one 24-10. This could get interesting!

by BledRed on Oct 22, 2011 12:36 PM CDT reply actions  

Okie State

is starting to throw like crap….they need to calm down.

by ~OnlyJade~ on Oct 22, 2011 12:40 PM CDT reply actions  

Weeden almost picked off

Mizzu D playing really well, Okie lite goes 3 and out.

by BledRed on Oct 22, 2011 12:40 PM CDT reply actions  

OSU is really coming apart

I never gave them a ghost of a chance to beat OU, but I expected this one to be over by halftime.

Mind blowing conservatism by Mizzou there

They had 90 seconds and 3 timeouts to go 80 yards. With the way the game was going, I don’t think you throw away an opportunity like that….but they did.

Lol and poor Brewster. From BCS conference coach to Fox sideline reporter. Ouch.

Yes, but don't forget

they play ball in a Pinkle-Land. Almost as scary as Zook-land.

by ~OnlyJade~ on Oct 22, 2011 12:49 PM CDT up reply actions  

Missouri D is playing incredibly well

And they continue to run all over Okie lite.

by BledRed on Oct 22, 2011 1:12 PM CDT reply actions  

TD Okie lite

That pick has killed Missouri’s mojo.

by BledRed on Oct 22, 2011 1:16 PM CDT reply actions  

Poor Turner.

Again.

Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.

Hey look at that

8:12 left in the game and Illinois finally scores.

by ~OnlyJade~ on Oct 22, 2011 1:37 PM CDT reply actions  

What is the deal

Have they just given up since last weeks loss?

by BledRed on Oct 22, 2011 1:41 PM CDT up reply actions  

It almost looks

like the entire team went out drinking last night and are hung over this morning.

by ~OnlyJade~ on Oct 22, 2011 1:43 PM CDT up reply actions  

And thats game

Mizzu fumbles in the red zone.

by BledRed on Oct 22, 2011 1:39 PM CDT reply actions  

TD Okie Lite.

Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.

Clemson scored 35 points in the 3rd quarter

Now that’s impressive!

Look me up on youtube sometime...if you're really bored.

by Billgrip on Oct 22, 2011 2:00 PM CDT reply actions  

And with a minute left

Illinois scores again.. Think Zook will do the on side kick this week?

by ~OnlyJade~ on Oct 22, 2011 2:02 PM CDT reply actions
