Catch-all Thursday Football Thread

We're watching South Carolina-NC State (ESPN HD) and North Texas-Ball State (ESPNU).

UPDATE: We're also watching Minnesota-Duluth vs. Central Washington.

SECOND UPDATE: I'm listening to Tiger Talk and posting relevant/amusing quotes in the comments section.

Please join in!

  19. Hans, the Hotel and Conference Center's GM, now is an American citizen.

    Breaking news from the fine folks at the Auburn Network.

  24. I'm going to have to wait until AFTER they do something before I get involved in TT. I can't take any more irrelevance.

  32. "Q (Carr) has really had a good camp. He's in the rotation. He's in the mix. He will play Saturday. His best days are ahead of him yet. He hasn't played that much football."

    ReplyDelete
  33. That was a quick half.

    ReplyDelete

  35. WTF is this on the ESPN haltime?

    ReplyDelete
  36. OK, that was a little over the top.

  37. My Cost/Mgmt Accounting teacher may or may not be related to AUHandCC GM.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Q's the afflete of the bunch.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Watching the SC NC st and to speak the obvious neither team is in sync on offense. May be it will pick up in the 2nd half

    ReplyDelete
  40. i think I'm getting Laughing Cow cheese all over my keyboard.

    Nilla wafers for lunch, cheese & ritz for supper.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Typical SC under Spurrier. Gross.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I still can't believe how bad the QB play is under Spurrier at SC. They don't seem to be able to field even an average QB.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Chizik likes Trooper Taylor.

    He also believes Onterio McCalebb is fast.

    ReplyDelete
  44. "I'm not sure I've seen a guy this fast in a while. It's hard to catch him."

    ReplyDelete
  45. Can't believe we aren't discussing the T-shirt. South Carolina gear has so many possibilities.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Thats a real mystery depressed, I am not surprised he hasn't been overly successful, I am shocked the QB's have been SOOO BAD

    ReplyDelete
  47. "Our goal is to rush for 200 yards minimum every week."

    ReplyDelete
  48. How's Duluth doing?

    ReplyDelete
  49. On Wildcat:

    "We're going to be able to do it with more than one person. It's a very difficult thing to defend. We don't want a guy to be in the game and have you know where he's at. There are so many things we're trying to do philosophically on the field. Kodi Burns will be playing receiver."

    ReplyDelete
  50. Good goal I hope we get it and with some deep passes winning games can happen

    ReplyDelete
  51. I despise "Doctah Lou"

    I have to clean the spittle off my tv everytime he's on

    ReplyDelete
  52. So Lou Holtz is spitting his way through his first commentary of the year.

    ReplyDelete
  53. D. We had the same thought at the same time. Scary....

    ReplyDelete
  54. On why he seems boring: "I protect my kids. (Editor's note: From whom?) On the outside, I look protected. On the inside, when we go to the meetings, I guarantee there isn’t one bit of mediocrity in my bones. When we get behind closed doors, I'm very animated. It's a little bit of a misnomer."

    ReplyDelete
  55. Now I will insert my deleted comment about ESPN, that was horse manure!

    ReplyDelete
  56. well, rats. I thought it was a dozen, turns out it was a baker's dozen.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Sorry, I'm missing Dr. Lou

    ReplyDelete
  58. About that shirt Jay. It rocks. Where can I buy one....On second thought, that may not look good on a male. Female....better have guts to wear it. Well, maybe you shouldn't wear it. But...That shirt Rocks.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I support the gal and the shirt.

    It's a great combination.

    ReplyDelete
  60. a few decades ago the "lady" USC cheerleaders had somethiing analogous to "GO TEAM" on the derrierre of their uniforms. Don't know if that's still the case.

    Is that NoVA Tiger on the phone?

    ReplyDelete
  62. "Roy" wants Chizik to recruit more in Atmore.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Can anyone believe we played South Carolina and we took every single snap in the 3rd quarter. They almost took every one in the 4th quarter.

    ReplyDelete
  64. He also wants more jailbreak screens.

    ReplyDelete

    Nice to see EA by the way on ESPN

  66. Think Erin Andrews purchased one of those shirts before doing the game tonight? Nahhhhh.

    ReplyDelete

    I can't believe no one has taken the pic!

    ReplyDelete
  68. Jay, if we can run a screen, inside, outside, bubble, jailbreak, any kind of screen, successfully this year, it will be the first AU team to do so in decades. Just sayin.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Did you think that pic was from my personal stash of USC chicks?

    ReplyDelete
  70. probably since Sullivan's days, sponge

  71. Anonymous7:45 PM

    Doh!

    ReplyDelete
  72. no, I'm guessing that stash is even better and you won't share them

    ReplyDelete
  73. That t-shirt is like a cut-off football jersey. It only looks good on the right person(hot chick.)

    ReplyDelete
  74. Chizik described Kodi Burns' speech to the team (the day he lost out on the QB job) as a "defining moment" of the season.

    ReplyDelete
  75. If he has any better than that he better keep them under lock and key

    ReplyDelete
  76. HAHA damn eastern time

    ReplyDelete
  77. all-orange Karen will be disappointed when I show up in blue

    ReplyDelete
  78. I just visited the official Gamecock online store....And I didn't see anything remotely like that T-shirt. Whats going on here.....

    ReplyDelete
  79. I'm quite certain that is UNofficial

  88. USC is playing for the FG, no?

    Talk about conservative play-calling.

    ReplyDelete
  89. CWU @ UM-D is going at a snail's pace, the clock that is. The game is ok.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Nice pic on this thread. Me likey!

    ReplyDelete
  91. Anyone watching this game should see why it's important to have a good defense. Offenses don't usually click early in the season, expecially new offenses.

    ReplyDelete
  92. Did Kathy's daughter get well? Was it swine flu?

    ReplyDelete
  93. LOL @ Constanza's

    Now THAT's harsh.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Hey!!! Welcome back, Prowler.

    BTW, not that anyone asked me, but I think the chick in the Cock shirt is way hot.

  99. But she's no Erin Andrews.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Mon. Two reasons that chick looks hot in the Rocks t-shirt. 1. Well, I think you guys can figure this one out.
