Friday Night Games Sickos Thread
Three games to choose from:
- (ESPN) Tulane at Memphis - I've only seen commercials so far...
- (CBS Sports Network) Fresno St at Utah St - (NT)FSU used to be ranked, until Wyoming got them last week. Utah St is 3-3...
- (ESPN2) Georgia high school football!!! #6 Buford at Mill Creek - both teams are 6-0 and its currently tied at 10. Buford has Michigan commit Montez Walker.
(Meta: Is it me, or is the board super duper slow tonight?)
October 13th, 2023 at 10:28 PM ^
Yep, I remember that too. And I have no idea why either.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:32 PM ^
WHY??? It hurts just watching it and you put it on a loop!! You sick bastard!
October 13th, 2023 at 10:34 PM ^
I thought this was the sickos thread?
October 13th, 2023 at 10:36 PM ^
Good point, carry on...
October 13th, 2023 at 10:08 PM ^
Insane that ESPN has a game everybody wants to watch and is going to start it somewhere else so that they can milk commercial time out of Tulane Memphis
October 13th, 2023 at 10:34 PM ^
And simultaneously on a different channel cut away from the final seconds of a potential game tying drive in a premier high school game to go to basketball AND not offer a stream alternative. What the heck was that? Both terrible.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:24 PM ^
WTF just happened to the high school game? With 20 seconds left ESPN switched over to the opening tip-off of an NBA game - WTF??? What happened to finishing live broadcasts? FU, ESPN... So much for seeing if Buford could pull off a miracle, or watching the home crowd spill out onto the field in delirium at a huge win.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:31 PM ^
That drive looked pretty good. Or Stanford just looked really bad. Maybe a little of both? Probably...
October 13th, 2023 at 10:45 PM ^
Stanford has fallen on hard times, post-Harbaugh and early Shaw. They are back to being just Stanford. Even the ACC wasn't sure if they wanted them.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:47 PM ^
Colorado is a bad football team which means Stanford is hilariously awful.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:52 PM ^
Colorado is a bad football team
This is just… false. You can not like them and the show that has come along with Sanders, but I’ve watched every game but one of theirs (last week, because who gets PAC-12 Network?) and they are not bad. Not great, but this will be an eight win team.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:57 PM ^
Your entire post is false. Colorado is ranked 80 to F+. They suck. They have eeked out pillow fight wins against other awful teams. You don't win in 2ot and in the final seconds against CSU and ASU and claim to be a good football team. Not a good football team at all.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:00 PM ^
We’ll see where the dust settles once the season is over, but I’m confident in eight wins. And eight win teams aren’t bad teams.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:03 PM ^
They surely can be. 8 wins against 1-3 win teams doesn't make a good team. Lol. Oregon, an actual good team, could've legitimately beat Colorado by 100.
They won't win 8 games though. They suck at football.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:11 PM ^
I guess we’ll see.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:47 PM ^
After tonight, they will have 5 wins. Their remaining schedule:
@UCLA
Oregon St
Arizona
@Washington St
@ Utah
What would be the three easiest wins, home against the ranked Beavers, home against the Wildcats, and at ranked Washington State?
If they get to 8 you wouldn't be willing to call them a not bad team?
October 14th, 2023 at 12:14 AM ^
Yeah sure I would, but I don't see it happening. UCLA will beat them next week. The beavers run game will shred Colorado's thin d line. Arizona might be interesting and I see WSU and Utah absolutely pounding them. Utah might sack Sanders 15 times.
October 14th, 2023 at 12:23 AM ^
Their remaining schedule:
@UCLA
Oregon St
Arizona
@Washington St
@ Utah
Plus a bowl game.
October 14th, 2023 at 2:12 AM ^
Yeah dog they look like a 4 win team at this point. 😂😂😂
October 14th, 2023 at 2:21 AM ^
That is… accurate.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:38 PM ^
2 Stanford jet sweeps in a row. I love when a play works and a team goes right back to it.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:39 PM ^
Hey, so far some good games!
October 13th, 2023 at 10:41 PM ^
"If you recognize the surname, he's the son of Emmett Smith."
Uh... There are 2.5 MILLION Americans with that surname...
October 13th, 2023 at 10:44 PM ^
If you don't ask EVERY person with the surname Smith if they're related to famous NFL running back Emmett Smith, how will you ever know???
put in the leg-work man.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:52 PM ^
I’m totally betting he incorrectly said surname and meant first name.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:45 PM ^
Stanford is so bad they're making Colorado look okay. Poor damn Stanford.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:49 PM ^
Have not watched Stanford post Shaw era but man they have taken a huge step back. They are really bad.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:53 PM ^
Both Stanford and Northwestern are reverting to their previous doormat status.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:53 PM ^
OK, if Stanford does not score RIGHT NOW, this game is going to be over in the 1st quarter.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:56 PM ^
LOL, Prime with a gold-plated headset.
He's pure.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:59 PM ^
Clear horse collar tackle by Colorado and no call. Good to see Prime already has refs in his pocket lol
October 14th, 2023 at 12:15 AM ^
Is it racism or hatred for someone in the spotlight that makes you dislike Deion so much?
October 14th, 2023 at 1:20 AM ^
I don't even dislike him really. The constant media blowing him is annoying, though. They talk more about him than his team during broadcasts.
Resorting to "racism" shows how much a weak bitch you are. If I'm racist towards Prime then I'm racist towards most of my family.
October 13th, 2023 at 10:59 PM ^
That horse collar was right front of the ref. How do you miss that.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:03 PM ^
LOL the PA announcer got called the fuck out!
October 13th, 2023 at 11:06 PM ^
Cool. The Colorado DJ gets called out by the ref for playing music during the play.
I'm surprised that does not happen more as a lot of DJs / PA Announcers like to really cut it close.
The best approach is the Michigan approach during Mr. Brightside . . . cut off the mic and let the crowd keep going. Nothing the ref can do about that.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:08 PM ^
Ref seems like a total dick, type of guy who got bullied and is now reversing that energy. Chill out dude
October 13th, 2023 at 11:08 PM ^
Pretty sure it was the PA guy saying "Thiiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrddddddd dooooooowwwwwwwnnnnnnn!"
I think Mark Jones was just trying to be funny by talking about DJs.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:09 PM ^
Stanford offense is poop
October 13th, 2023 at 11:10 PM ^
As is their special teams.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:16 PM ^
And their defense.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:19 PM ^
And their coaching. David Shaw did not only leave the cupboard bare, he took the damn cupboard.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:10 PM ^
Oh Stanford, why are you so Stanford?
October 13th, 2023 at 11:17 PM ^
Game over for Stanford
October 13th, 2023 at 11:19 PM ^
Say what you will, and like Deion Sanders or not, but Colorado has the FBS’ leading passer. Impressive.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:23 PM ^
They talk about more about Coach Prime than the actual game..
October 13th, 2023 at 11:23 PM ^
Utah State/Fresno is an actual good game, meanwhile. 32-31 Aggies with 4:42 left.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:28 PM ^
Aggies let them score.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:28 PM ^
Fresno goes right down the field, going for two or a 7 point lead. 2:19.
October 13th, 2023 at 11:34 PM ^
It's prep football, but Mater Dei(1) at St John Bosco(7) on Bally Sports for those looking for a more meaningful game.
Bosco up 14-0.
