FBC Week 7 thread: O, Rhett Bomar, what could have been

Always wondered how Warren Moon knew in advance he would lead the world in fumbles . . . but, then, he's a smart guy.

 

If the Gophers lose today..

With the Gophers sinking under a five-game losing streak, the impending end to Brewster's tenure as Minnesota coach has become a foregone conclusion. Intensive discussions regarding his future have been held among university officials this week, a person with knowledge of the situation said Friday afternoon.

A loss to the wounded-but-dangerous Boilermakers, ensuring a third non-winning regular season in the coach's four years, could trigger an early dismissal by the university's administration. However, no decision about the timing of such a move has been made, according to the source.

All tied up at seven in Syracuse.

 

First and goal ECU, already leading N.C. State 7-0. Cue Sam Mills meltdown in 3, 2 ...

 

TD Pirates.

 

As if Brewster hasn't screwed up enough things: White helmets instead of the classic maroon & gold?

 

With 9:44 to play in the opening quarter, UGA burns its last timeout.

 

I don't like it, especially since I hear there are guarantees of Cal and Stanford getting USC and UCLA every year (which would mean there would be some years where the other North schools won't - unlike most conferences, Pac 10 schools DON'T like it when the sched doesn't include the traditional power).
But it does make sense in that Utah and Colorado are contiguous with Arizona.

 

Mike Leach sounds like he is imitating Frank Castigliano imitating John Madden.

 

Sparty showing signs of waking up. 48-yard TD catch to a wide open receiver. Now lead 13-6 after trailing 6-3 at halftime.
