BOOMER!!
SOONER!!
Come on Meechegan!
Fumble clemson. S. Car. has gotten two turnovers so far early. Need to somehow capitalize. lol
I’ve been telling the overconfident Clemson fans all week that Carolina wasn’t gonna come out here and lay down for Clemson. If the gamecocks can just find an offense.
Hurry up and suck, every other CFB team. We’re ready for some real football.
#Bedlam
The suck, it is strong today.
S. Carolina D is fired up! Wonder if they can keep this up ALL game though..
Anyone who thinks SC has a chance should not drive today…and don’t buy ant lottery tickets
Not that I dont agree with you, but the same could have been said about texsa that day back in Oct.. lol
Good grief man…you had to go there…
lol. Hey man, I’m just rooting for S. Carolina to pull a miracle!
Those two fumbles got me excited rats
Hey can I get some bacon with that egg on my face
lol. Not sure they are gonna get it, but it has been much closer than I would have thought..
I jinxed it
Well, was really lookin forward to being in Stoolwater for a Sooner win, but it looks like the weather may preclude it… BOOMER!
Sorry throwing out the BS flag….if you can go…we will win
Boom! Abdul Adams!
You know something we don’t?
Yessir! He committed about 15 minutes ago.
Awesome! Welcome aboard Mr. Adams.
Abdul Adams just committed!!
BOOM!
Boom, it is!

He looks really good wearing #2 in that crimson and cream. It’s been a while since OU has had superstars on defense and offense sharing the same number.
Mbanasor and Adams.
no Prediction Thread??
Strange.
Im superstitious. I dont like changes during big games…
I’m with ya. However, I LOVE it when my team overcomes my superstitions…Means they are truly championship caliber.
I like your attitude. Im gonna try and subscribe to that.
Its the only way to remain superstitious, and sane. haha

The weather forecast for tonight seems to be improving by the hour.
I hope you’re right. I want us to be able to run the entire offense.
I agree. Our passing game opens up our running game and vice versa
It ain’t on me, it’s on the weatherman/men. 🙂
I want it too cold. Let the Perine carry the ball 40 times.
We got more run blockers.
Ice bowl 2.0
NO ICE—NONE—ZERO!!!!
No ice. Sry I meant just really cold. Heavy ball. Force osu to run the ball more than they want to and eliminate their deep ball game.
I hope all the ice is gone. I’m 6.5 hours from home and I have to drive home tomorrow. I need some sunshine.
TFB Fam, win tonight and I don’t see why OU couldn’t win it all. Clemson is looking very average, beatable.
They still got UNC yet to go, they are probably more game than the cocks.
Forgot about UNC.
Well, that is surprising. S. Carolina actually scored an offensive TD, throwing. Still 21-10 Clemson..
Anyone else think it’s awesome that Michigan has a tight end named Butt?
Gamecocks trying to make this a game… 28-17 Clemson.
4th quarter about to start..
28-25 now! C’mon SC
Beat the Pukes.
Throttle the Pukes.
Destroy the Pukes.
Annihilate the Pukes.
Sack the Pukes.
the Pukes.
Make the Pukes Puke!
Stomp a mudhole in them, and then stomp it dry.
Then bill them for services rendered.
In the words of Al Davis (shave my tongue) “Just Win Baby”
In the words of Al Davis (shave my tongue) “Just Win Baby”
Mop the floor with them. Then whip them again for leaving a waxy yellow build up…
Gamecocks score after a clemson fumble. 28-25. Clemson. 12 min left in 4th..
28-25
Fixed it, thanks!
No worries. 🙂
Big 10 just isn’t very good. Ohio State isn’t very good, and they are taking it to Michigan, at their house, with a lot on the line.
Fuente is going to be the replacement for Beamer at VT. Been a lot of chatter, and ESPN just had it on the bottom of their broadcast. Good gig for him.
He could do a whole lot better. He should hold out for lsu.
I don’t see him as a fit there. Nor do I see LSU as a for sure open job. Been a lot of back-tracking in the last 24 hours, but if Miles is let go, I’m guessing they have a more proven plan than Fuente.
Yes, jimbo fisher.
If I were Fisher I sure wouldn’t leave FSU for LSU. He’s recruiting top flight talent where he is, and the ACC is a joke. Just beat Clemson and look reasonably good against a collection of cupcakes and you’re in the final 4.
I’m not sure he is big enough for lsu boosters.
Depends on if they want some one that can come in and win. Ask Ye Olde Miss if they would approve of Fuente in BR.
I actually think Gary Patterson would be the best fit for LSU…too bad they will look in a different direction.
Patterson should go to VaTech and Briles to Iowa St.
Hoping and assuming that the point losing penalty issues will finally be under control this evening. I’m with ETex on the ice issue. No need for anything that can easily cause pointless injuries.
I expect OSU to look much better than they have all season tonight, but I think OU is gonna be too improved on both sides of the ball this year for it to make a difference. If Baker is 100%, it might not be close. Even if he’s not, unless things go totally wacky the Sooners should regain their rightful place in this rivalry–finishing on top.
We take care of business tonight, I believe we stay in the playoff. I think winner of Big 10 championship determines 4th spot, and Ohio State most likely will light Iowa up. Bye Bye Hawkeyes.
I agree the B1G champ is in but I’m not so sure OhSt or MSU just walks through Iowa. They seemed very balanced yesterday and those other squads have had their issues this year. I wouldn’t put $$$ on Iowa but I wouldn’t bet against them either.
I think Iowa has a better shot against MSU. IF they have to play tOSU, I think Iowa loses.
Very possible. Both teams are obviously more talented than Iowa. Iowa has put out consistent team efforts week in and week out. MSU & OhSt have both had several ugly games. Really doesn’t matter because they should eliminate each other.
We have a lot of work ahead of us before we can get to the playoff.
MSU looks likely to crush any hope tOSU had.
Looked for a bit like the Gamecocks were going to throw a monkey wrench in the playoff. Don’t see them finishing the job, unfortunately.
Yea I think they are finally cooked.
Clemson looks very beatable. Limited offensive package for sure.
Agree. To me it looks like Final 4 are, if OU wins: Clemson, Bama, OU, Mich St. I think OU can beat any of the other 3 if we get in.
Where are all those OU fans that flipped out that OU didn’t go after Durbin to be our DC? He’s been solid at Michigan against bad offenses, but OSU is gashing them today. I’ll just keep Mikey Stoops if it’s all the same. 🙂
Wasting your breath. When it comes to accurately evaluating OU’s DC’s and the challenge of playing D in this league, an unfortunately large number of Sooner fans just don’t get it.
OU easily has the best Defense in the Big12 this year #firemike
Best Defense in the country
Best Defense in the country
I never wanted him to leave, but I did want him to stop embarrassing OU on the sidelines.
Watching tOSU manhandle Michigan making me nervous. A week ago I was really wanting us to blow the pukes off the field, but at this point I’ll settle for just getting the W and going home healthy. It’s late in the season, and teams are still getting some rude awakenings.
I want Mich St to win and beat Iowa (either OSU or Mich St will beat Iowa, imo). And if we win, we’ll be in with two teams that aren’t prolific scoring teams (Bama and Mich St)
1. Perine is a better back than Henry.
2. Mixon is a better back than Henry.
3. Water is wet.
What about fire? I’ve heard it’s kinda warmish.
Abdul Adams All American AAAA coincidence? I think not!
Looks like auburn hasn’t watched any film this year trying to run on Alabama on 3rd and 5 c’mon man.
As I trudged along going nowhere on the treadmill yesterday I had the thought of what this OU offense might have been (more lethal) had DGB had stayed. Can you imagine having to leave Shepherd one on one so you could bracket DGB?
Yea, he prob would have done himself a few (million) favors had he stayed…
Any updates on the weather for tonight?
according to weather channel.. 32 degrees, 90% chance of mixed precip/freezing rain
Pretty sure I would smile if Auburn could find a way to beat bama.
Nothing like a battle of FGs…. #secfootball
It’s the powerful, earth shattering, menacing, unbreakable defenses.
I may be a homer but neither Auburn nor Alabama look impressive at all. And considering Alabama’s constant top 5 recruiting classes that takes some effort to look that ineffective! Saban must be a very poor coach, indeed.
Gotta hand it to the Tide. I’m telling ya….7 minutes from the half and tied with 5-loss Auburn 6 to 6! This Bama offense is for real folks! Lol.
At the risk of sounding like a punk…and OU lost to texass…that sorry ass football team. If OU was ever allowed a do over it would be that game. Granted this OU team now is night and day different than that OU team in early October. This OU team would hang 60 points on them.
yeah, but you don’t understand. They play in the SEC!!!! And in those 5 wins they have beaten: Jacksonville St (by 7), San Jose St (by 14), Kentucky (by 3) and Idaho!!!! They’re SEC good!!!!
Yep. My knees are trembling just thinking about having to face them.
Buckeye joy being turned to buckeye tears as PSU cannot find the endzone to save their lives.
Boy the tide really know how to shut up people like me. No sooner do I jeer than they put up yet another awesome FG. I am truly chagrined. 😉
How does this Bama team pass anyone’s “eye test” if not for bias? I mean, seriously. I’d love to beat their butts again in prime time. Let all these 5-stars see what kind of sham Saban has cooked up for the CFB culture.
“Rivalry” game. We’re trying to write off a loss to Texas as that being a rivalry so you throw out the records. Auburn is terrible but it’s the same situation.
Why must you interrupt my SEC hate with your good points, Zack? 😉
Sec still sucks. I want to get bama though and beat them “when they care”
McCarron and his GF cared remember!!!
His tears were delicious!!!
Can this man get an AMEN!!! AMEN!!!
We have tried to forget that game, but those same people kept reminding us of it. We got banished to the coal mines while Bama’s loss to Ole Miss was written off as a fluke.
That would be true if Bama hadn’t already lost this season.

Just win any way we can. Looking past OsU would be a mistake. They could win this game (as most every TV talking head has predicted today.)
Corso started basing his picks on crowd response long ago. OSU only has one advantage (pass rush vs. OU pass protection)and it won’t be enough unless OU plays like garbage.
Well and their DL vs our OL is no where near as big of an advantage as our DL vs their OL. We need to win the trenches still so even though we have the advantage it’s still gonna come down to effort.
They dont have one WR as good as Shepard but overall Id give them an advantage at WR as well.
WRs don’t play against WRs. Our DBs are better than their WRs. After watching their DBs against BU I would say our WRs have the advantage against their secondary as well.
Remember how their “signature” win was a “dominating” win over LSU by 14 points? LSU is now recognized as mediocre, yet no one, including the committee, has even suggested maybe they should revaluate Bama’s resume. What a joke.
I have to agree. They are inept on offense.
I want to make the Final 4 first. I really want this game tonight.
Whew! Sure hope we don’t have to face this Bama team. 4 whole field goals in the first half. An offensive juggernaut if ever I saw one.
The SEC is tough!

15 min til Sooner Radio show folks…
IT’s. ALMOST. TIME.
I’m happy Justin Fuente landed a P5 coaching gig but I can’t believe VT didn’t hand that program over to Bud Foster.
New blood. Beamer was probably asked to resign so they may not want any of his guys.
Read on ESPN that DC Bud Foster, and Associate Head Coach Shane Beamer are expected to stay on staff in same capacity..
Ok that was a nice trick play right there
MSU scores again. Buckeye whimpers turn to loud wailing.
If Auburn could tackle, they would have already won this game.
I HATE Bama, but Henry is very much like Perine. Makes goods tacklers look bad. If we play them it won’t be as easy as it appears. He’s strong and falls forward every play.
Yeah I know Henry is a tough dude, was really talking about the number of times they hit the bama QB and receivers behind the line only to let them loose for a big play.
Hadn’t seen Coker trusted to air the ball too much but his TD pass was pretty nice. Still feel the way to beat Bama is to take Henry away as a factor and trust your secondary against Coker.
I was just about to say this game is over. Auburn has no chance down 2 touchdowns.
then……..
The football gods want auburn to win
I’m watching KU vs KSU, just to see the train wreck. How can a team in a Power 5 conference be as bad as KU?
I’m watching William & Mary vs Duquesne in round 1 of the FCS playoff. Pretty sure these guys would beat KU.
Um, Charlie Weiss. KU lost a ton of money hiring him. I believe they have to pay him for a couple more years too. Then Turner Gill, TERRIBLE hire! They should have never let Mangino go. He had that program competing and competing well.
They should hire Paul Rhoads
They have a really good coach right now. He just needs a couple of years to get decent recruits in there (KU recruits). Turner Gil did a terrible job recruiting for them.
I’m just pulling for Rhoads to land somewhere, I think he’s a quality guy.
I think he is a good coach as well. Maybe Memphis will give him a shot when Fuente leaves.
Plenty of job openings. He’ll land somewhere.
I think they have the least # of scholarshio players in FBS, if I remember correctly. Weis didn’t know how to properly plan for turnover and manage his roster. KU is suffering the after effects now. They would be smart to use all those available scholarships and the opportunity to play early to grab a bunch of JUCOs to bridge the gap.
Exactly. Weiss started this downhill trend. He had no idea how to manage a roster. They also are very young. Beatty got rid of the locker room cancers in the off season and that hurt some too, but I think was the right move to get his players there.
So, I just thought I would share this in case nobody heard it earlier. Bama was up 9-6 with 2 minutes left in the first half. They had the ball on about their own 40 yard line and Gary Danielson said,”Alabama has been in so many big games, they smell blood right here and they’re going in for the kill.” Ignorant statements like that are why I hate watching games with Danielson and Lundquist commentating. Really Gary? Bama is going to put Auburn away in the first half? I don’t think we’ll hear a more ignorant comment all day long. Go Auburn and most of all, Boomer Sooner!
Well, he ain’t Nostradamus is he? Auburn is keeping this thing tight.
Danielson’s love fest with the sec and Alabama in particular is borderline pornographic. The guy needs to get out of the southeast more often.
I think about 65% of the sports broadcasting personnel have little crimson elephants tattooed on their johnnies. Since they all seem to have a HO for Nicky, and by extension the sec.
MSU/PSU all but over. Buckeye wailing and gnashing of teeth heard all over Ohio.
………
………
That’s preposterous. How can you say that?
The offensive line that decommited and went to ucla how is he doing there does any one know?
So Saban marches on field ranting about the possibility of a missed 12 man on field call (it wasn’t) and gets a sideline warning. Muschamp gets riled up and let’s loose some expletives and gets a 15 yard penalty. Why doesn’t he get a warning too? 15 yards back means no Bama FG.
They’ve gotta make sure somebody from the SEC gets in the playoff. They know if Bama loses the playoff aspirations are dashed for the conference. Maybe with the exception of Florida.
Auburn = Bad… But let’s watch ESPN and crew hype this up to a dogfight with 2 world class defenses, and a quality win for Bama.
you’re a broken record, and it’s cbs
I was more so referring to all the sports networks, not just cbs. I know the network that the game is being televised on because I’m watching it, thanks.
That goes without question. Bama could lose that game, and the talking heads would come to their defense because “it’s such a brutal rivalry!” Lol, whatever.
I see why everyone thinks Bama’s defense is the best in the country. The QBs in the SEC are horrible and that’s being really nice!
Jeremy Johnson is terrible! If Auburn even had any kind of passing threat, they could have won this game.
Game thread is up.
