Explain to me how when a ball carrier hasn't touched the ground and drops a ball, it's not a fumble. How is it that when it's 4th and 1 and a runner moves backwards, it's a 1st down. How does a pass that goes from one yard line back one a 'forward pass'? Seriously, there were some horrible ass calls. But still, I guess the shamecocks can take their 1-for-5 win and shove it.

There's talk of a Notre Dame/Michigan rose bowl, that'd be the biggest waste of a bowl game they could possibly too. They need to make a rule - if you're not in a conference, you're not BCS eligible.

Come on, you can't make absolutely no forward progress and pick up a first down. I'm fucking tired of hearing that "USC beat the shit out of Clemson." Guess they "beat the shit outta them" by 3 pts.

OU vs. Oregon: In my (completely selfish) opinion, one of the worst calls of the year. Just last week the booth ref who blew the call said he knew Oklahoma had recovered the ball, but he wasn't allowed to rule on that. Someone emailed me a picture of Allen Patrick standing outside of the pile holding the ball while a ref was digging into the pile. However, OU should have shut them down after it happened. What about the South Florida powerhouse knocking off WV?

1000 CLUB Posts: 1,598 Group: Xtreme Crew Member #3 Joined: December 15, 2002	the OU call was definitely the worst of the year. they would be in national title contention right now. usf had a good win. WVU bounces back and beats rutgers this week though

Have to say, OU-Oregon was really bad, the worst referee call of the year. I don't know 100% about him coming up with the ball because the whistle was blown a few seconds before he came up from the pile with the ball, no one even pointed to him or anything because they knew it was already down. However, I have another reason as to why Clemson lost, probably the best. Not just the refs that screwed us over a few times, but the wonderful call to take out Reggie Merriweather. A senior who led Clemson to so many huge wins in so many years, completely shafted in '06. They put him in. In three plays he gets 23 yards with 7 to 8 guys in the box, that's more yards than Davis managed on all his carries all game. Get inside the 20 and take out Reggie. We chanted Reggie when he stepped onto the field every game this year, and 80,000+ chanting "REGGIE! REGGIE! REGGIE!" can motivate someone. He was ready to score - and damn well would have. So instead we put in Spiller, who gets tackled and hurt on the first couple of plays. Then Davis, his shoulder still bothering him a little. Nothing wrong with Reggie, nothing wrong with letting him score his last touch down...except that he never got to. All I have to say is that Bowden is gonna be booed like hell by a huge crowd as soon as he's back from the bowl game if Reggie doesn't start, and at least drive to a touchdown. I'll be there, that's for sure, letting him know what a mistake it was to leave him out.

1000 CLUB Posts: 1,598 Group: Xtreme Crew Member #3 Joined: December 15, 2002	the BCS got shaken up again today, USC lost and that SHOULD move michigan back into the #2 spot. although it was a great game the first time, i would rather see a different game, such as florida vs. ohio state. i went over to wake after the ACC championship and it was awesome, never seen so much toilet paper. where is clemson going? meineke car care?

Senior Posts: 493 Group: Members Member #187 Joined: April 4, 2006	Well what do you know, you get an early Christmas present of OSU vs. UF. I have a feeling UF may get crushed. If Arkansas hadn't muffed that punt, UF would have gone down then. That completely turned the tide of the game. Now its up to my Sooners to give Boise State their first loss. If this doesn't happen, BS will bitch about being robbed of a title shot until next year. Peterson is coming back for the Fiesta Bowl. Let's go bowling!

I don't know if that was a joke, WG, but I could always remind you of NC State's record this year But yeah, Music City. Apparently some classy Carolina fans rented out hotels in Nashville for the week to prevent Clemson fans from getting them, and are going to put "31-28" on billboards near the stadium. If it happens to be true (they've spray painted signs and buildings in columbia already, fucking wal-mart trash) then we truly see how used the are to losing. Oh yeah, on the note of bball...clemson 74 carolina 53...what biatch.

Definitely the hardest played game I saw, harder than the Rose Bowl in my opinion.
