CFB

BCmeSs

December 6, 2008 by Wally 10 Comments

The big college football games are over for now.   Florida was pretty impressive in handling 'Bama, especially without the services of Percy Harvin.    How good is Tim Tebow?   If he's not your repeat Heisman winner, then he's probably CFB's "Most Valuable Player".   He threw for 3 TDs without an INT and ran for 57 more yards, leading the Gators in rushing.   What a crunch time … [Read more...] about BCmeSs

Come In Off the Ledge, ND Fans

December 4, 2008 by Wally 24 Comments

After watching just bits and pieces of last night’s predictable beatdown at the hands of USC’s Trojans (I was surfing between that game, Oregon vs Oregon State and Oklahoma vs Oklahoma State), I was suddenly jolted with a dose of perspective … or maybe it was more like being hit squarely in the jaw with the cold, hard reality.

November 9, 2008 by Wally 6 Comments

After getting squashed by a mediocre Boston College squad, Notre Dame football is absolutely lifeless.   There's really not much to write about, let alone care about.   They may beat Syracuse, but I think  they will lose again to Navy and get absolutely crushed by USC.   A once-promising season will be relegated to a 6-6 record.   This ND program is a huge contradiction.   We … [Read more...] about Wally’s World Just Got a Little Smaller

ND Gags Away Another One

November 2, 2008 by Wally 8 Comments

At some point, after foregoing about 10 distinct chances to win the game by making just one more play, you gotta concede that you just flat out dropped the ball and failed.   You just didn’t get ‘er done when you should have … you just lacked that winning quality … you underachieved in a major way.  Well … that was definitely Notre Dame on Saturday vs Pitt.   I’ll come out and … [Read more...] about ND Gags Away Another One
