Football Season Highlight on ESPNU Now

'12 Football College Football12

Need to remind yourself how anything can happen and/or why Jimbo’s Noles will never, ever win a national title?

Watch #17 on ESPNU’s countdown of the Top 25 college football games of 2012. NC State 17, Florida State 16. It’s hot as an oven, and it’s not like you have anything better to do. Don’t kid yourself.

My first auction nomination (14-team keeper league, 20 man rosters) will be Mike Glennon for $1.

    TOB always looked like he needed to take a giant elephant dump…but especially so on this fateful Thursday night.

    I DVR’d the Pack-Miami game that came in at #20. FFWD’d through everything but Pack scoring plays, then the hail mary that beat us. I still don’t know how it’s possible for that guy to get behind 3 defenders, including Amerson… and I still don’t know why Amerson checked up and watched instead of making a play on the ball. Nothing logical about it – but whatever…

    I couldn’t stand to watch a second of that one. Pretty amazing that such a forgettable team could have two Top 25 games, though!

    Hey, I just realized something. Didn’t all three of our previous beat Florida State in the year they got fired? And lost to U*NC, of course.

    Tis also remarkable that EJ Manuel was a 1st round pick. He single-handedly pissed this game away. Competent QB play would have landed the Noles at least 10 4th quarter points (I got mad and missed the 3rd quarter last fall).

    Beej…you just flat crack my ass up. I no sooner read the first paragraph, and ID’d the writer, just like that.

    The FSU game was a pivotal moment twixt me and you. Billy the Witchdoctor vs. Mdmsle. Le Croix, my Santaria Haitian Queen, in Mt. Olive.

    Took 2 yrs. off my life workin’ that one. If we need her this year, you’re makin’ the trip.

    I just want to see the big man swing it! That sh*t was funny!

    LMAO, sounds good Cowdog. My sympathies for having to put up with EJ on your Bills squad. CJ Spiller, on the other hand, should be a force of nature with more carries this season.

    If I had a vote, I would put FSU at #11 and leave them there until Jimbo departs.

    There he is.

    BJD – I actually bailed with a couple minutes to go in the 3rd. We got the pick as I got in my car… scored on my drive home… watched the win from the couch. I claim full credit for that victory, since there’s no way we win it with me in the stands…

    Ya lost me there Gowolves…

    Who is the “big man” and wtf is he swinging?

    And is it contagious?
