Even better news is that we fired Brian Van Gorder! Fuck that guy! My 24-hour strike worked!

Really though, I can't believe LSU didn't just fire Les after last season. In hindsight, that was a really silly decision to bring him back just to can him four games into the year.

[gunnar hendershow]

Especially because they're firing him after a loss that happened because a snap got off half a second too late.

LSU is going to miss their perpetual 10-win seasons with whoever comes in next and can't recruit like Les. Plenty of season ahead and plenty of Ed Orgeron wins ahead before we get there though. I heard on Gameday yesterday a suggestion (implying) whoever of Miles and Malzahn got fired after the year would be looking to David Shaw.

Surely Briles will get consideration, right?

[Meacon Keaton]

Definitely. LSU could also really open up the bank account and try to buy Jimbo away from FSU, too though.

My prediction is Briles takes the LSU job, Chip Kelly leaves San Fran to take the Baylor job, and Les Miles ends up eating grass at some Big-12/Big-10 school.

Tom Herman's name might get thrown about too, but he might stick around at Houston if they get the Big 12 invite.

You mean Ed Orgeron losses, right? He's great at recruiting, but stinks as a head coach. Ole Miss benefited greatly from his recruiting ability. He's also a damn liar, as he flat out lied to some recruits when he left Tennessee to go to USC alone with Kiffin, and told them they could come to USC if they wanted to. (Tennessee wouldn't have allowed that to happen due to school policy)

[Meacon Keaton]

This Notre Dame/Syracuse game is stupid. We're winning 23-13 not even five minutes into the first quarter because everyone is under the impression this is flag football.

[Meacon Keaton]

Kizer is 10-14 with 300 yards with five minutes left in the first half.

What a loaded day in college football. I usually hate days where I do nothing all day, but today i am making an exception lol. Cant wait for 3:30 to see my Mountaineers face Kansas State and at the same time watching Michigan and Wisconsin. And then tonight Louisville/Clemson? my goodness

[GhostMachine]

I'm watching Oklahoma State vs. Texas right now. Good game, and I hope OSU wins. 

[Mofoticon]

Tom Herman should have his pick between LSU and Texas after today. Either school would be very lucky to land him.

[Maxx]

Mayfield is making TCU's defense look foolish.

[Meacon Keaton]

UNC takes down FSU with a last second 54-yard field goal. The state trooper guard ran up and hugged Fedora and you could see the exact moment he realized it was inappropriate and went back to doing his job.

And Georgia just scored with 10 seconds left! What a pass by the freshman Eason!

And Tennessee scores with a Hail Mary at the end!

How can you not love college football?!?!?!

Clemson's entrance is so fucking cool.

Frankly, any long pass by Dobbs is a hail mary. 

That catch has to be the greatest I've seen in years. College OR pro.

i screamed my head off when he caught it, and I yelled "GIVE HIM SIX!" after the TD was confirmed.

*edit to add* After the way Texas A&M played against South Carolina, I'm pretty sure we're going to be 6-0 after that game. (Then get annihilated by Alabama.....)

Clemson's entrance is silly. Not exactly eco-friendly either.

[Meacon Keaton]

One of these times the whole Clemson team is gonna fall down that damn hill and I hope I'm watching.

Friggin' TCU was down 49-24 and scored 22 in the 4th quarter to make it a game. It's 52-46 now. That's those fine Big-12 defenses at work.
