2009 College Football Season Thread

Blocked punt -> TD for Iowa


undeserved because Penn State should've had a first down

 

missed 2 point conversion

11-10 Iowa


bogus, because it should not have been 4th down. awful officiating

 

crucial 3rd down for penn state

clark's pass is tipped, picked off, and returned 37 yards

iowa in fg range now

9 minutes left

penn state on the ropes

 

Iowa quickly scores a TD

18-10

 

and then Texas Tech scores

21-10

ugh

 

Penn State got a big run but he fumbled at the end

that just about salts the game away

 

Clark picked off yet again, and Iowa pulls off the big upset in Happy Valley

Purdue was down 3 to ND late, but ND failed to cover the Purdue RB leaking out of the backfield. Easy long TD. No one within ten yards of him.

21-17 Purdue with 3 to play

 

#4, #5, #6, #9 in the AP poll all lost this week

 

WTF?

Purdue called a timeout.

huge boost for notre dame, which would've spiked it on third down

 

clausen throws it away on third down.

fourth and goal for the game here


TD Notre Dame!


They lead 24-21 with 24 seconds left


wow

Purdue really screwed themselves with that timeout

 

My god Clausen has such fucking heart and guts. He WILLED this team on the final drive and might have saved his coach's job by this.

If Sanchez wasn't a Jet, I would have been praying for Clausen to be one because this guy has such will. No Allen, no Floyd, and a wounded Clausen=ND escapes on the road vs a rival.

Take it.

 

Game over.

ND wins

 

Mike Patrick is clueless.

Anyway, Houston picks off Texas Tech on a big play to end the third, but it gets nullified on a call for hands to the face on the Houston DE.

Next play, TT gets an untimed down and then a good completion to Detrone Lewis. He fumbles, but lucks out when it rolls out of bounds.

28-23 Texas Tech and they're now in FG range

 

I agree that they aren't an elite conference by any means, but I don't think they are really overrated. I say this only because sports channels like ESPN like to take a big shit on the ACC any chance they can. Last week was an exception with them talking about The U all week, but that will end quickly.

 

exciting game in Houston

Houston driving for the winning TD down 5

 

16 plays, 95 yards, 4:58 drive

Houston up 1, going for 2

and the 2 point conversion is intercepted

 

and Houston gets another big win

29-28 over Texas Tech

 

Pam,

You may not read this, but if any poster on this board's team did not deserve to lose this weekend, it was yours.

Everyone else who suffered a big L,

we still got the Jets baby!

 

Thanks, it was a tough one. Iowa has had our number for years. :sad:

 

Ferentz is 6 for 7 against the Nittany Lions...too bad they have trouble beating almost everyone else.

Very entertaining day of football yesterday.

BOISE STATE in the top five! Mid-major in the national championship is a huge possibility - playoff system, here we come!
