What surprised you most, college edition

NMSU just trouncing Hugh Freeze two years in a row is hilarious. Doofus coach.
Btw Jerry Kill (NMSU HC) is a good dude. If Fuente had listened to Kill, he'd probably still have a job.

Fans also. Football fans can be perplexing. I believe every Virginiaprep.com messageboard poster that was hyping the Colorado Buffaloes
after they beat the completely pathetic; TCU Horned Frogs, should be made to sing the national anthem to the tune of Old McDonald Had A Dog before the start of each Virginia state championship game, in their underwear with a purple dunce cap on their head, while holding a “I Am A Football Fan” sign with two hands over their head, but in a group formation.Agreed, but what we're saying is that the rule doesn't make sense. If a team moves from fcs to fbs, make them have to stay in fbs for 10 years, but don't penalize them for being good by denying their record.
It's in place to help with the transition from FCS to FBS. Ok.
Did anyone consider the possibility of a program like JMU hitting the ground running? Apparently not.
NCAA could've put an out there in the bylaw --
If you're top 25, eligible for the conference championship, etc and in good standing, academics, support staff are where they're suppose to be, you're eligible.
The silly thing about it is JMU could still very well play in a bowl game, so NCAA is basically saying, you're not going to be eligible unless it's one of these lower tier bowls, then it's fine. I mean...?? Lol
Really seems like the NCAA is more interested in going on a power trip instead of just letting common sense prevail. Then they complain over the backlash.
Well, we feel for those kids, we might ought to reexamine the rule... lol

I had a feeling that was going to be a hard faught game. Maybe the fight over post season eligibility won't mean as much after the loss. I don't like passing the ball every down when it's goal-to-go, both teams did it. Not sure if that's a Sun Belt thing or what.
Waiver application exists as part of the rules? What on earth are you pretending to rant about?
Well, we know for sure one team that won't be taking a bid from JMU. That's Colorado. Deion maybe should've stayed put. Would've been legend.

Who's calling the defense for the Hokies? I figured they'd beat State. Senior day, bowl eligibility on the line...Lane was kinda quiet from what I seen.
VT looks like a team determined to get to a bowl game, UVA freshman quarterback is trying way too hard to do too much, and it looks like the UVA offensive line and entire defense has already taken the rest of the year off. Lol
What I'd been saying all year: progress. Got the right guy under center and things have been improving every week. They're 8-4 or 9-3 with Drones and current offensive scheme going at Week 1.
They're not back but they doubled the win total and made a bowl, that's solid year 2 progress considering where Fuente left this program.

What really worries me is the field in Charlottesville looks horrible!
I’m laughing so hard. I told my kids I would kiss their *** on Main Street if Auburn won. About 4 minutes left when I told them.
My kids are adult men but they will always be my “kids”. We enjoy college football and they really thought Auburn was going to win.
How do you drop eight and leave someone open there? That was a mess. That was terrible all the way around.

That is why Bama is Bama. Good teams figure out ways to win and bad teams figure out ways to loose.
They ought to throw a flag every time someone tries to start something after giving up a big play. Time for fighting has passed. Should be 15 yards every time.

Old Dominion becoming bowl eligible on the craziest ending I've seen in some time.
JMU IS GOING BOWLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JMU has a former Hokie on staff...I'm wondering if any VT fans know who it is without cheating.
Someone who has never been in my kitchen!
I am on a mission to have the local Costco and Walmarts and other retailers that have all the UVA, Va Tech, and WVU swag for sale to start carrying JMU swag as well! Been registering my displeasure to managers and employees whenever I can! JMU is closer to this area than WVU is anyway! GOOOOOOOOO DUKES!JMU fans are so funny
Predictions are JMU vs. LU in Cure Bowl on Dec. 16. In Orlando. So possibly the two BEST College programs in Virginia will determine the best College Football team in Virginia.
Projections have JMU IN New Orleans and LU in Texas,both playing another mid major
I can see them beating UNC next year. I hate to admit it, but I can definitely see that happening if they're able to hold onto everyone.
I know this college topic, but man this Chandler Jones stuff....is hard to watch.
People laughing and cracking jokes about it wrong on so many levels. Uncool.

This CCG is phenomenal football.
