2018 College Football thread

[Meacon Keaton]

The third game is against TCU, so it being three games is almost like them saying “See? We are taking this seriously! Fur eels!”

[Your Mom]

Fuck Ohio State and everyone who helped keep this scumbag employed. What a joke

[Meacon Keaton]

Urban Meyer makes that school so much money. There was no way they'd ever actually fire the guy. It's pathetic, but it's the way of this country. Money controls all. 

[gunnar hendershow]

Nobody in Columbus was screaming "fire him", hell I doubt many in the entire state of Ohio were. It sucks. But when you win as much as he does you're almost invincible.

[GhostMachine]

What really angers me is that Ohio State got rewarded when they signed Meyer, because they replaced a corrupt coach with a better corrupt coach. 

I hated Meyer at Florida. Him being more successful there after being a quitter with the Gators just pisses me off.

Watching The U documentary...how hammered is Bernie Kosar in his interviews?

[Meacon Keaton]

The guy never stopped partying.

Alright CFB fans which TCU home game should I be trying to go to?

https://gofrogs.com/schedule.aspx?schedule=208

Immediately rule out Oklahoma, that one seems like it will be the hardest to get tickets for.   Really tempted to go down the street this weekend and see Miami/LSU.

[Meacon Keaton]

Miami/LSU is gonna be a defense-fest. So if you’re looking for high scoring, you may just want to stay home.

as for TCU, I’d rate the games:

Ohio State

Oklahoma

Oklahoma State

Kansas State

Iowa State

Texas Tech

[Maxx]

Huh, here I thought Texas Tech would be topping the list for high scoring.

The Ohio State game is actually comparably priced though its at AT&T stadium and the seats would obviously be further away.  I think I want to go for the authentic home game experience

I'd recommend trying to go to the Texas Tech or Kansas State game. Oklahoma State would really be the best choice, but tickets for that will probably be hard to get, too. Though not nearly as hard as for the Oklahoma game.

[Maxx]

Yeah, the lowest Oklahoma tickets are $99

It really depends. They’re hit or miss. I put them at the bottom because I think they’re the team on that list least likely to give TCU a good game. Every other team will compete with the Frogs and at least make it watchable. TCU could beat Tech 63-42 and it would never actually be close even that close.

What will be watched by more people in Connecticut this evening?  UCF/UConn which will surely be a blowout, or the meaningless Giants/Pats preseason game.

Giants/Pats

UConn football hasn't been shit in years, and even when it was good it was still secondary to basketball.  The fact their stadium is in East Hartford rather than Storrs probably kills some of the vibe too.

[Your Mom]

College Football started already?

[Meacon Keaton]

Yup

[GhostMachine]

Tennessee plays West Virginia this Saturday. In Charlotte, North Carolina.

 

[Meacon Keaton]

Yeah there’s a lot of neutral field games in week one. Almost like week one “bowl” games which should be exciting for Tennessee since they won’t be going to any post season bowl games. 😛 

[Meacon Keaton]

It’s footbaaaaaaaall daaaaaaaaay! I’m ready for 14-hours of football action.
