We have some Oregon folks around here, and they are one freaking confidant fan base. The trash talk is not an act, they really believe that bucks have no chance. I see none of the self depreciating humor and pessimism that I see in most other fan bases. They remind me of Denver Broncos fans who cannot even imagine that they won't win the super bowl every year. I really really really would like this game to silence them.

Glad you caught that. I didn't read the fine print. This is from the BCS site. Depends upon whether BCS stands for Bowl Coalition or Bowl Championship. No crystal balls until 98, but basically the same 1 v 2 format.


1992 Regular Season
In its first year, the Bowl Coalition was a rousing success. The Coalition was formed to increase the likelihood of matching the top two teams in the nation while creating other exciting bowl pairings that would appeal to fans and would be based on the full season's results. When No. 1 Miami met No. 2 Alabama in the Sugar Bowl, it was the first pairing of the top two teams in a bowl game since Oklahoma and Miami played for the national title in the Orange Bowl after the 1987 season. The Crimson Tide beat the Hurricanes and won the national championship in both the coaches and the writers polls.

The Conference Champions
Atlantic Coast: Florida State (11-1)*
Big East: Miami (11-0)
Big Eight: Nebraska (9-2)
Southeastern: Alabama (12-0)
Southwest: Texas A&M (12-0)

Other Participants
Notre Dame (9-1-1)
Syracuse (9-2)
Colorado (9-1-1)

The Matchups
Orange Bowl: (3) Florida State 27, (11) Nebraska 14
Fiesta Bowl: (6) Syracuse 26, (10) Colorado 22
Cotton: (5) Notre Dame 28, (4) Texas A&M 3
Sugar Bowl: (2) Alabama 34, (1) Miami 13

1998 Regular Season
In the first year of the Bowl Championship Series, Kansas State, Tennessee, and UCLA entered the final weekend of the regular season undefeated, but Kansas State lost to Texas A&M in the Big 12 championship game, and UCLA lost at Miami, creating a classic Tennessee-Florida State matchup for the national championship in the Fiesta Bowl. Tennessee emerged with the victory.

The Automatic-Qualifying Conference Champions
Atlantic Coast: Florida State (11-1)
Big East: Syracuse (8-3)
Big Ten: Wisconsin (10-1)
Big 12: Texas A&M (11-2)
Pac-10: UCLA (10-1)
Southeastern: Tennessee (12-0)

Other Participants
Florida (9-2)
Ohio State (10-1)

The Matchups
Fiesta Bowl: (1) Tennessee 23, (2) Florida State 16
Orange Bowl: (8) Florida 31, (15) Syracuse 10
Sugar Bowl: (4) Ohio State 24, (6) Texas A&M 14
Rose Bowl: (9) Wisconsin 38, (5) UCLA 31

1994 Ped State #2, (beat Oregon in Rose Bowl) LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Funny I've heard that tune before and I'm wearing a shirt today that says 2010 Rose Bowl, Ohio State 26 - Oregon 17.

So we shall see.

*looks around on the board for them*

*watches a tumbleweed roll by*

I saw waaay more jawing from Bama fans. Granted, Bama has more fans in general, but still. I'm talking 100+ pages of nonstop trash talk. Ducks? Not so much. Too bad, too. Those guys were pretty fun and we had a few good ones stick around.

When I say "here", I mean "here" in Denver, not "here" in BPland. 8D

Got a job at a warehouse on October 1st last year. Seasonal with the possibility of getting a full time gig. Looking promising. They don't hire giggle fucks. I'm not a giggle fuck.

But because CFB is afraid of making ALL OF THE MONEY, they hold their motherfucking national title game on a motherfucking MONDAY NIGHT. I work 2nd shift. If I...get sick Monday and have to miss work, I can kiss any chance of full time employment with my current employer goodbye.

So if anyone knows of any machine operator positions open, holla at me. I'm OSHA certified to train operators also.
.FML

Mr Kyle. I'm sorry you don't get to watch game even though you are enemy. Please give me the names of important people and bosses in your business along with phone numbers. My 3rd cousin has a way to convince people to let people off and let them do whatever the fuck they want and still be employed. He is strictly a business sock. His name is Mr.Socko and this is what happens when people don't comply with my cousin.



The sock wishes all buckeye and duck fans can watch the game live and have fun. Some things are more important than work and watching football and drinking while eating nachos happens to be one of them. Let me know if you wish to set up meeting with Mr.Socko. Sock out!
