Game Thread: Fiesta Bowl: Oklahoma State vs. Stanford

[CrimsonProf]

Sorry, but those who live in remotely rational parts of the country couldn't care less what fringe idiots think of OSU beating the #4 team in OT...

I don't think you understand how understand how media narratives work. Read Neal Postman or Marshall MacLuhan.

 

[Bamabuzzard]

Say what you will, but either of these teams would have gotten their doors blown off by Bama or LSWho

Oh good lord yeah. I can GUARANTEE YOU that Blackmon wouldn't have had the type performance he had tonight either. He would have had to fight hands to his chest on every route he tried to run.

Can anyone explain why you run those draws starting at 2nd and 13 or whatever when you have Andrew Luck as your QB? I guess because they were effective during certain situations during the game.

 

[BamaDMD]

Well there goes the "we deserve a split NC".

 

[TiderB]

Did she just seriously ask Gundy if osu deserved a share of the national championship?

I seriously doubt you want to go there...

 

[braggtd]

Wow, that was the best D he faced all year. Subtle statement IMO.

I don't think I'd ever sign a kicker who had all kinds of voodoo/mime-type motions before kicking. Seems just a little too O/C and fragile...

 

[CrimsonBleedRed]

Overall not impressed with either team, and is now convinced neither would beat Alabama or LSU. But individually both Blackmon and Luck were both impressive.

When you have no defense all offense thats why I wouldn't have kicked that field goal in reg,they were moving the ball well

Colts will take Luck and send Manning on his way. No way Irsay pays him $28M AND Luck first round money while he rides the pine.

Loved the fans sign saying OSU=Touchdowns and Alabama=Field Goals. How did your team win the game? Oh yeah....Stanford misses two field goals then OSU makes one from the 5

I didn't understand that either..It was like their HC wanted a FG on that last drive..Which makes absolutely no sense because you knew OSU would score a TD when the got the ball..Stanford's D had no prayer stopping OSU from scoring a TD on that last drive..

They may think they deserve a split NC doesn't mean they earn a split NC.

Irsay should do that but will he? Don't know.

 

[BamaMoon]

Yeah, he kinda looked embarresed when he realized he said that.

He probably then thought, "Bama and LSU would have make me look silly tonight."

 

[CrimsonProf]

I seriously doubt you want to go there...

Clearly I don't. My bad.

 

[Bamabuzzard]

Irsay should do that but will he? Don't know.

Irsay subtly made the statement on NFL Network "I've already paid him $26M to not play." He wasn't real clear as to what he meant by that.

After watching the last few bowl games, it really seems that (outside the SEC) defense is an afterthought.
