I hated playing with knee pads...the never sit right, and just feel awkward...I would have done the same thing if I could have
I read an article the other day about Warmack always being able to draw a laugh and break tension. In a crucial spot in one game, in the huddle, he remarked "Do everybody else's knee braces feel funny?" :D

KSU controlled the 1st half, won the stats, and trail at the half. Geez.

Why all the love for KSU here and so little for OU? Kansas is geographically closer to the South but that can't be the reasonI, can it? I don't get it. Is it because the OU coach is named Kelly? What's the deal?

Not trollin', just askin'.

For one...I like Snyder and their QB. I also, tend to root for the underdogs in games I have no stake in.

Chip Kelly is a great example of a coach showing you the only stat that matters is the score.

Oregon is an overrated PAC-whatever media darling with a lot of flash. Plus watch how dirty they are playing. No discipline whatsoever. Bunch of thugs. K-State is well coached and classy.

Oregon is probably going to kick the snaps up a bit...they were kind of plugging along at K-State's pace. I don't think KSU can handle the quick snap component of no-huddle

First, I think, is the west coast glitz and the uniforms and all. They're sort of the antithesis of Alabama football. The Kelly part is a laugh. All of the South, except for the extreme southern parts of AL, MS, etc. are Keltic in background. I just flipped through the Huntsville phone book, and, in a community of several hundred thousands there are seven pages of people whose names begin with "Mc." In fact, my middle name (mother's maiden name) is "Boyd." In, fact, surprise, all of the British Isles (not just Ireland and Scotland) are genetically 85% Keltic. IOW, when the Saxons, Vikings, etc. invaded, the Kelts didn't really go anywhere at all. If you get curious about it, I'd recommend a book named "Saxons, Vikings and Celts," based on DNA analysis of the inhabitants of Great Britain. IOW, Kelts rule, no matter how we say our "Our Fathers"...

Personally, I don't have a problem with Oregon. Granted, I hate every college football team not named Alabama... but Oregon doesn't get me really worked up.

I am pulling for Oregon...just sayin

I think the lack of love for Oregon is that they are considered "what's wrong with college football" too most of us who like the glory days for running the ball and playing tough defense...

Did you know the Celts originated in the Iberian Peninsula (Spain)? I was surprised to learn that.
