yeah Vtech got owned , omg Marcus Vick was such a bad ass before todays game, now what, I said whichever QB didnt perform up to their highest standards would struggle big time as Vick did.
Charlie Jones who went to my H.S came in for the injured Moss and didnt miss a step
You guys tried to knock out our QB with a late hit too... yeah you failed at that too..
dmanit wheres Butters so I can give him a high five, I dont care how sticky his hands are..
Vtech fans Gobbled Gobbled their way back to their cars early, that was great.I think now Vtech fans and players have been humbled and wont be so confident going into a game anymore.
btw the last 2 years Vteh were a pain in the ass and Im just happy we finally won so dont take it personal college TA turkey guys :D |

this weekend has just opened a whole can of worms now ..
usc and texas look like locks for 1 and 2 ..
texas is not letting up .. they are stomping their competition right now, which is a good thing right ?? to intimidate usc ??
va tech loses to miami, so look for them to drop in the rankings to probably 4.
alabama wins so they probably will get the 3 seed , but the next two weeks is, in donald trump's words ... HUUUUGE!! ... first lsu, which is looking mighty strong right now, then the annual rival game against auburn .. if bama wins these two games, but loses the sec championship game, this may be interesting to see if they would retain the 3/4 spot ??
miami probably will move up to the top 5...
lsu wins, so top 5 maybe ..
ucla got pummulled at arizona, which i think is a hard place to play football, no matter which arizona football team you play . the wildcats, sun devils, or cardinals ... i think the state has this weird aura floating around like denver and their mile high scenario ..
let's say usc loses to ucla, and texas chokes in the big12 championship against probably colorado ..
what's going to happen now ??
a can of worms i say ... a can of worms |

BLACKSBURG, Va. -- They spoke with righteous indignation, the emotion spilling forth, dressing every word in the fire and brimstone of a tent revival.
The message the fifth-ranked Miami Hurricanes gave Saturday night, in their play and in their locker room afterward, went as follows:
How dare you.
How dare you predict that any team, even a third-ranked unbeaten rival that had beaten Miami two straight and seven of the last 10, would beat a team as proud as Miami.
The 'Canes humiliated Virginia Tech Saturday night in the Hokies' house, winning 27-7, a final score that doesn't begin to convey the one-sided nature of the victory.
Miami forced six turnovers from a team that had committed only seven all season.
Miami limited Virginia Tech to 167 total yards.
Miami removed Hokie junior quarterback Marcus Vick from consideration for any and all awards for the foreseeable future, except maybe a Purple Heart. Vick completed 8-of-22 passes for 90 yards, threw two interceptions and lost three of the Hokies four fumbles. In Vick's defense, Miami locked down his receivers, and holding onto the ball is difficult when you're hit from behind. Again and again.
"We came in here fifth in the nation," senior offensive tackle Eric Winston said, "and y'all made it out like we were 50th."
The Hurricanes read the stories that predicted a Virginia Tech victory. They filled up their tanks with that fuel. There's no more genial man coaching football than Miami head coach Larry Coker, and even he tried to sound teed off.
"We had a little edge," Coker said. "We took it a little personal. I don't think people gave us much of a chance to win the game here."
Miami's longtime offensive line coach Art Kehoe, a fiery man who has never felt the need to slow down any thought before it reaches his lips -- in other words, the antidote for Coker -- said what the head coach would not.
"Why do people think we're going to come up here and get our asses beat?" Kehoe said. "Don't tell the 'Canes what they can't do. We can do. We're a can-do organization. We've been doing it for a long time. Don't tell me we're going to get our butts whipped. It ain't happening."
So now the BCS can breathe a sigh of relief. With no disrespect meant toward Alabama, three teams and two sidelines are no longer a concern. Texas and USC can continue down the road to the Rose Bowl without controversy.
Unless, that is, you acknowledge that Miami (7-1, 4-1) staged the most dominant victory of any top-five team this season. Unless you figure that, if we had playoffs, you'd rather draw Indianapolis in the first round than the Hurricanes who showed up in Lane Stadium on Saturday night.
Miami played Virginia Tech (8-1, 5-1) without a starting tailback, a starting punt returner, and for a while, a starting quarterback, and still humiliated them. Hurricane tailback Tyrone Moss left the game in the first quarter with a sprained left knee. Punt returner Devin Hester left with a strained hamstring. Quarterback Kyle Wright got his bell rung and missed most of the second quarter.
So sophomore tailback Charlie Jones came in and rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown.
So redshirt freshman quarterback Kirby Freeman came in and finished off Miami's first touchdown drive, a 17-play, 82-yard effort that took 8:18 and made it clear that the line of scrimmage would be controlled by the visitors.
This is the same offensive line that gave up nine sacks in the season-opening 10-7 loss at Florida State. Winston couldn't have been any prouder of himself or his linemates for the improvement they have made over the last two months.
After the South Florida game (Oct. 1), we had a lot of upset people," Winston said. "We won 27-7 and it should have been 50-0 at the half. We had a lot of upset people on the offensive side of the ball after that game. We made it a point to get better and not gradually.
"We played Duke and Temple. Last week (a 34-16 win over North Carolina), we ran the ball on the best rush defense in the ACC. Watching Boston College get stuffed [by North Carolina] today, we realized, 'We can do this. We can do this on everybody.' "
Virginia Tech lost its national championship dream, its unbeaten record, its lead in the ACC Coastal, and, most surprising, its composure. Down 10-0 at the half, the Hokies caved in late in the third quarter. Miami scored on a nine-yard pass from Wright to flanker Darnell Jenkins to go ahead 20-0. A couple of snaps later, Javon Nanton sacked Vick in the end zone, forcing a fumble, and Miami tackle Kareem Brown recovered for a touchdown.
Miami didn't score in the final quarter, but the one-sided nature of the game didn't prevent the 'Canes from throwing into the end zone on fourth-and-14 from the Hokies 24 with 1:35 remaining. It's that kind of rivalry.
The Hurricanes made their statement to the Hokies, to the media and surely to the voters. It's never too early to get in position on the off chance that USC or Texas proves to be human. For all the bravado expressed in the locker room Saturday night, even Winston stopped short of suggesting that the 'Canes should slot into the Rose Bowl.
"You can't do that," he said. "There's something to winning all your games. Ohio State in 2002, winning games by six points. If you win all your games, you deserve to be there. But 11-1 can look pretty good. I've got to believe we're the best one-loss team."
No one would dare disagree.

With the recent shakedown, I would love to see Ohio State pull a BCS bowl. Sure, they're a two-loss team but few teams in the country travel as well as the Buckeyes. If they can win out I wouldn't be incredibly shocked to see the pull, perhaps, a Fiesta Bowl apperance. Of course, if the Buckeyes win out and Penn State loses to Michigan State, the Bucks win the Big Ten.
A Notre Dame - Ohio State BCS game would be HUGE in terms of ratings and stature.
i was shocked UCLA got blown apart, and VT of course. Florida State was over rated all year, so the only thing shocking about their loss was the (at one point) twenty point defecit. |

yeah ..
the ucla loss was a shocker ..
ucla is way better than that ..
i think a fix is going on here ... :rolleyes: :conf: .. ucla was paid to lose, so their game with usc wouldn't be much of a big deal (well it still is), and the bcs crew will have their way with the usc-texas dual with no complications ...
:rolleyes: |

I am honestly shocked by the Miami/Va. Tech game... I thought that Vick could lead his team to victory, but Miami defo showed something there. One thing though, I really love the entrance by the Hokies... very cool.
My Gators got taken to double OT by VANDERBILT!! Ugh! If we want any shot of maybe sneaking into the SEC title game, we have to play better than that.
Kinda surprised Miami jumped over Alabama. Big win by Miami, but Bama is undefeated... and in the SEC no less. You might say ACC is better, but undefeated is undefeated.
UCLA losing was no surprise, they have been falling behind all year and that finally caught up to them.
Sure looks locked for Texas/USC in Pasedena. Here are my bowl predictions and hopes:
Rose Bowl: Texas (BCS #2) Vs USC (BCS #1)
Fiesta Bowl: Notre Dame (BCS At-large) Vs Penn State (Big 10 Winner)
Sugar Bowl: Virginia Tech (BCS At-large) Vs Alabama (SEC Winner)
Orange Bowl: West Virginia (Big East winner) Vs Miami (ACC Winner)
I think those would all be very good games with all very intriguing storylines and matchups. We'll see though. The conferences with title games always makes for some weird things to happen. |

| If everyone in the ACC wins out, will Virginia Tech take on Miami again in the league title game? |
