Pack/Bees Open Game Thread

In order to put a positive face on things, I will attempt to list some positive things about this football season:

– Based on our September play, beating the spread will be a much more realistic goal going forward.

– Boston College sucks as bad as we do, if not worse.

– Butch Davis still sheds a tear every time he sees a paleface litter.

– Unlike (every) basketball season, there’s no chance that Duke or the Holes can win the national championship and rub salt in the wound.

– Steven Hauschka, best offensive weapon for the Seattle Seahawks. Dental school will have to wait.

– Friday, bitches.

– My fantasy team is 3-0!! OK, that one probably only works for me. Hey, I’m trying my best, damn it.

– The NCAA just cleared the path for one SEC refugee to join our two deep. If we only can get 10 or 15 more of those, we’ll be set.

– The first appearance of fall weather might have you outside and forgetting that we play today.

– Russell Wilson is finally getting some national media attention and Heisman love.

– Friday, bitches (schadenfreude so nice, I listed it twice).

I will see you later in the comments. Too apathetic and sleepy to liveblog.

    Just focus on TJ Graham getting ridiculous kick return yardage just by volume of kicks returned.

    Damned good point. He could set some kind of national record (doing what he does best, running straight ahead in the open field). That’s the spirit of optimism I’m looking for!!

    Texas A/M has a running back with the first name “Christine” – I shit you not.

  4. logarithm 10/01/2011 at 2:13 PM #

    Does he have a brother named Sue?

    Graham already leads the nation in total all-purpose yardage. At worst, barring injury, he’ll stay near the top of the rankings and hopefully extend his lead. He’s closing in on Ted Brown’s school record for most all-purpose yardage in a career too.

    A little Johnny Cash is never a bad idea. I wondered the same thing.

    Don’t forget, the baseball playoffs are on too. Yay!

    Arkansas’ QB has an outside shot at 600 yards.

    Looks like a beautiful day for State football!

    Graham has the worst hands. What a shame.

  10. redcanine 10/01/2011 at 3:15 PM #

    Enen the punter is coming down with injuries.

  11. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:16 PM #

    I was watching Mike Sherman butcher the end of the great Aggie/Pig showdown. I assume we went three and out??

  12. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:17 PM #

    At least the peeps in the stand got nice weather today. The walk back to the parking lot will be pleasant.

  13. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:19 PM #

    I never expected to see a GT punt, that’s for sure.

  14. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:20 PM #

    And we don’t see it. PJ is gonna ram it right up our sphincters.

  15. WeAreCured 10/01/2011 at 3:21 PM #

    The misery never ends. Get a stop, then give up 30 on the fake punt. It’s pretty easy to make State look pathetic.

  16. Wulfpack 10/01/2011 at 3:22 PM #

    U-G-L-Y.

  17. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:22 PM #

    Now THAT is what I expected to see. 13-yard TD run, untouched. LMFAO!!

  18. WeAreCured 10/01/2011 at 3:23 PM #

    If the field wasn’t limited to 100 yards, I think GT would easily pass 1,000 yards of offense today.

    We just need to break Tevin Washington in half whether he pitches the ball or not. Put him in a coma. That’s my suggestion for defeating the triple option.

  20. eas 10/01/2011 at 3:23 PM #

    Did we really think PJ would punt? Seriously Archer….just a heads up Mike they will go for it on 4th. This is all common knowledge.

  21. coach13 10/01/2011 at 3:25 PM #

    I suspect we’ll all be able to start on that honey-do list by end of 1st quarter.

  22. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:25 PM #

    BC turns it over on downs. We will keep our company in the Atlantic Division cellar. Woohoo!!!

  23. BJD95 10/01/2011 at 3:26 PM #

    4 yard gain. Is that Washington’s longest run of the year?

  24. coach13 10/01/2011 at 3:26 PM #

    well….we’re in the positive in rushing…….for now.

  25. redcanine 10/01/2011 at 3:26 PM #

    Was that Bishop that CJames pointed out? I couldn’t tell.
