FBC week 13 running thread

[Chef]

Tech @ Oklahoma will be one for the record books.

Early line is OU -7.

I would expect that to be around 4.5 or 5 by game-time.

Intrigued by the o/u; Has there ever been a 90?

My gut says 49-42 Tech.

Will probably go higher than that.

Florida State safety Darius McClure is out for the season after injuring his knee while celebrating an interception last week.

Myron Rolle will probably miss half of this week's game with Maryland ... he has a Rhodes scholarship interview.

Oh, and there's MAC football tonight. Woohoo.

How do you miss that facemask???

The dummy announcing the CMU/Ball State game just blamed the snowy condition on the lake effect.

Ummmm, Mt. Pleasant is at least 120 miles from any Great Lake. Good research there.

 

[mustangj17]

CMU needs to stop scheduling teams like Georgia. They need to schedule more manageable opponents like Northwestern or Kentucky. A easier schedule and they would be ranked like Utah, Boise or Ball State.

Whoever is doing PBP on Ball State-Central Michigan, along with CMU grad Ray Bentley, is doing the worst announcing job I've ever heard out of an ESPN announcing crew.

The nearest water to Mt. Pleasant is a pond outside Soaring Eagle Casino...

I dig Central Michigan's fight song. It's catchy and collegiate.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

No mention of UM-OSU yet? Should be the worst installment in decades. Definitely in my lifetime.

I'm still holding out hope that the good guys pull off the most improbable win since 1969. [/big blue fanboi]

But I don't want to think about it ...

GET A LIFE! THINK ABOUT THE ECONOMY!

 

[Hammer Pants]

For the record, I'd rather live in Mt. Pleasant, S.C.

And ... ? I live 100 miles inland from Lake Erie, but we still get L.E.S. if the winds are right.

"You are exactly right, Ray Lewis...."
No Moran, it's bentley. Who IS this boob of a PXP guy...

And pseudo... you aren't going to get lake effect snow in Mt. Dismal... that's a dusting...

Shut up. Nothing good about Isabelly County Tech -- ever.

The MAC needs to fine CMU for their choice of color combo tonight.

It doesn't bother me. It's not VTech bad.

I like gold jerseys, actually.

 

[mustangj17]

New Balance made the jerseys special for them for tonight. Even so, they were not as ugly as that fake punt. Almost as bad as Butch's predecessor's swinging gate play that cost them the BC game two years ago.

 

[doubledown68]

CMU's playcalling there was abso-****ing-lutely moronic. From taking three deep shots on the 40 with 5 mins left, to that ****ing awful reverse on 4th-and-18.

Okay well I lived in Mt. Pleasant, Mich. It does not get lake effect snow.

This is getting a little more exciting that Testicle Tech would have cared for.

EDIT: So much for that.
